Politics Forum Intro

[BroMontana]

Oh hey guys! It’s your friendly in monitor Bro Montana.

I believe this is the first time I’ve ever ventured over to this board, and figured I would stay in close contact here through tomorrow. There’s one thing for sure and that is it will be an insane day

I assume everyone posting in here knows each others political affiliation, so

I was raised by 2 Republicans in NJ, which has been blue ever since Jimmy Carter

I truly view myself as someone who leans conservative, in some cases strongly, while also agreeing with enough Democratic policies to consider a Dem for President if they’re the most qualified for the job

I voted for Obamas 2nd term over Romney so I have a history to justify the lean

I want to go on record that I think Donald Trump has done many great things but is also a scumbag. I’m not voting for him because he is a nice guy and I can relate to him

For me, as someone who runs a business, the office of President is the most important job in the country and needs to be held by someone with a resume of success. They are interviewing for the job in front of us for months

One candidate has been President and did a lot of great things when he was there

The other does not have a resume. I’ve asked several democrats to name for me one good accomplishment for Harris in her time as either Senator or VP and I have yet to receive one

I’m also going on record in saying that I think Kamala Harris is the worst and least qualified candidate for President in US history. And strictly due to the division in our country she actually has a shot, which is very sad

This isn’t a “likability” contest and the most qualified candidate to take care of our country should win. Thales of party.

My vote has already been casted for Trump and I think it’s called very early. Kamala is ****ing toast. Time to return to a sense of normalcy in our country

Anyway, sorry for rambling but I’m happy to be here and looking forward to seeing what you guys think of my perspective

You can't get any dem to tell you what she has done, because not only has she not done anything, they are not voting for her. They are voting AGAINST Trump. It's that simple. And sad!

also own businesses. Let me see who I would hire to run them.

Candidate A.
Current VP
Former senator
Former prosecutor.

Candidate B.
Former CEO who wrecked company in year 4.
After being fired, hatched a plan to remain in position by lying his ass off.
Directed his uneducated riff raff followers to violent uprising at company headquarters.
Former reality TV game show host.
Currently carrying $2B+ in personal debt, some to other countries.
30+ felony convictions for business fraud.
Majority of former direct reports have warned me that hiring him again will be a huge mistake, that he will destroy my business and that he is a narcissist asshole who only cares about himself.

hmmmmmmmm. This is tough one.

Did you C&P this from CNN or CNBC?

I could poke holes in a bunch of these, but this one is my favorite:

• Prosecuted transnational gangs, the drug cartels and human traffickers

Ironic to use the words transnational and cartels in a sentence that is supposed to be a positive for Harris

There are 12.5m people living here ILLEGALLY who have came across our southern border in the last 4 years alone. You hear the stats on the murderers/rapists/terrorists, but here is what bothers me most

$1B spent to feed, house, and care for these criminals in our country. 138 hotels in NYC (138!) filled with illegal immigrants

This money was taken from FEMA’s budget. Not only were rescue efforts a disaster in western NC a few weeks back, as American citizens were left in the cold to die while waiting for their government to help them, but they are only offering $750 to people who have lost their entire lives

That money should be given to the hard working LEGAL citizens of the US, and it’s instead used to harbor criminals

How can you tout Kamala for being a prosecutor when she is knowingly allowing 12.5m people to break the law?

I am not a business owner, but I do run a 25+ person department and hire regularly. If I were hiring someone for a leadership role, and 95% of the people that worked for them previously wouldn't endorse them for the job, I would give the job to literally anyone else, because it is at least worth a shot. Just a different perspective.

She did that as a prosecutor.

And I love your line “you hear the stats on rapists”. Where do you hear those stats? From catturd?

I thought from your original post that you might actually be a serious person. I was wrong. Carry on.

Yes, I run a similar sized team for a large corporation and there is NO WAY I would hire a manager with the turnover Candidate A had. It would be a non starter.

He's got charisma, but his people leave him, which means he's probably toxic.
