If someone said “I plan to pick a white make” you’d be screaming about it. Skin color is not diversity. Background and experience is diversity. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

It's about Biden being racist for 70 years and then trying to pretend (for votes) he's not racist. Reverse discrimination at it's finest. |

I think Cuomo lost his momo when his brother was allegedly involved in the Covid nursing home scandal. |

They bash Biden for picking a black woman for VP. But none of the other 45 out of 46 Presidents who automatically chose a white man for VP deserve any criticism. A white man picking another white man for the Office is just peachy. It's a wonderful thing. . the foolish sayings of a rich man pass for words of wisdom by the fools around him |

You miss the point. The former POTUS candidates simply picked the best available person. They never said "I am going to pick a white person." Biden outright said that skin color and gender were the basis for his pick. Meanwhile your side called Trump the racist while your guy just sees skin color. And learn history. We have only had 45 different presidents. The first ones did not pick their VP. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

They pick the person who will help them win, which is not necessarily the most qualified. So, yes, they don’t play fair when you put someone in there who fits your demographic as opposed to real qualifications. "Trumpsplain (def.) explaining absolute nonsense said by TRUMP. |

As usual, Duffman illustrates his lack of understanding how things work. Hardly ever does “the best available person” get chosen for VP. It all comes down to politics. The VP pick is ALWAYS someone who ticks some boxes that the presidential nominee doesn’t. Was Pence the best available person in 2016? Hell no! He helped evangelical righties feel more comfortable voting for a heathen as scummy as Donny. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |
