Let's see how long it takes for you to make a comparison which of course is what "whataboutism" is, a comparison.

Looks like you've already started by comparing Trumps Covid plan with Bidens in another thread. I think Trump will be in your thoughts for some time to come. How else will you be able to make Biden look good without "whataboutism".

Even with the 'whataboutism' excuse - not even 1b1 will be able to paint lipstick on that pig to make it fly!
And - trump hate will dominate the rest of teh Haters' Lives - TDS is incurable.

Kamala Harris suggested that Joe Biden was a racist and rapist—now she's his VP pick

Biden has a very short life expectancy with harris as VP.
Perhaps less if he had picked H..... - whom death follows closely with more than 20 of her associates dying of suspicious causes.

The oval office resembles nothing so much as the life and death struggle in ancient Rome to succeed the Emperor.

Please don't tell me we haven't been in the "What about" era since Clinton. That has been the first excuse for Dems and Reps for the last two decades. You are smart enough to know that. Originally Posted by Old-T

Anybody that makes a comparison about the present, to the past, is engaging in "whataboutism". It's as old a dirt. And is often used by someone who, shall we say. isn't eager to or equipped to debate facts. Just dismiss it as "whataboutism" and ignore any actual debate.
But will it be is the question.

In my thread I stated Biden had to start from scratch as NO plan was had, implemented or provided by the prior administration. Comparisons are fine and sometimes necessary for contexts d understanding.

Whataboutism is a faulty argumentative style which is meant to redirect from the basis of the argument.

There’s a huge difference between saying President A used bottom up economic theories while President B used trickle down. No issue there.

There’s a huge problem with say well President A’s actions were fine because in the past President B did this and that.

I hope you can see the difference as it’s what you do plenty of.

The difference is that Instead of actually arguing about whether what President A did or didn’t do was right hood bad smart etc., it now attempts to turn to are actions by Presidents A and B comparative. Which had nothing to do with the original argument. In debate you’d get an F for doing that.
My uncle in China says they're celebrating big time there. He said China owns Biden. I think he's right.

Trump lost. Just putting the word out. And anyone that thought somehow all these suits and other BS was gonna give a different result is the height of stupidity.

Any people that were in their prayer circle trying to get God to intervene on Trump's behalf are idiots

Any of the dummies that posted on here day after day that somehow Trump was gonna get installed on 1/20 should take a civics lesson because that was the dumbest things ever.

It should be shameful to be so stupid.



he dummy channel. Making right wing dummies, more stupid by the day.


and :
"Says the r..... with the GED. He’s president and youre well nobody except a r..... in Texas. "


a post so foul - I would expect to be banned for it.
