So, I doubt that your "liberal" friends told you to post that.

What are their names and addresses? We're going to lodge a complaint with their local antifa chapter, and have their recycled grocery bags revoked.

Also, that looks like Clinton not Biden.

And if you're so concerned about the deaths of servicemen, what are the names of the 4 men killed by Trump's competence in Africa?

Do you even remember that?

oh, and you should go find the graphic designer who made this and apologize for not citing their work.

I suspect the poster thought they could "troll" everyone and incite some outrage.

You could do the same thing with trump, but you'd have trouble fitting 600,000 coffins into the image.

Trump put the Governers in charge of the states.
It's like bringing the principal to the class to set the rules.

Since you're Australian, you don't know this- Presidents don't put governors in charge of states.

Governors are elected. And do not report to the President. They're already in charge of the state.

Because the States in United States is literal. There are 50 different sovereign states that all fall under the federal government.

Governors can make their own treaties and trade agreements completely seperate from the federal government. Also, each state has it's own ratifying constitution that's completely seperate from the one we're always talking about.

You've probably heard of the National Guard? That's actually an army controlled by the Governor.

Yeah. There are 50 seperate armies in addition to the US military.

We are that crazy.

You think your Australian pal understands US politics almost as if he is American, only because he dislikes what you dislike

Yes. Because of this: Trump put the Governers in charge of the states.

Presidents don't put Governors in charge of anything. They can ask a Governor to take charge of something. But that's it.

Most people I've met who don't live in the US think that the US Governors function like governors in the Westminster system. They they're appointed by and act as representatives of the Head of Government, in our case the President, and act "on the advice" of the legislative system.

But that's not the case. It's 50 unique systems. Sure, there's a lot of similarities, but there's a tremendous amount of difference between them.

Like, in Texas, the Lt. Governor has more executive authority than the Governor. (yeah, it's nuts here).

But each state has its own legislative and executive system that functions independently of the federal government. Like the Governor of Texas can negotiate and sign a trade agreement with Australia.

I wasn't saying he was employing them.
What I mean is, is that getting the President to deal with state issues is not something that should be happening.

But he said covid was no worse than the flu, and downplayed it at every turn, pushed false cures, questioned the competency of the scientists, & threw doubt at (& made fun of) masking at the vaccine. However, he made sure he got it. He undoubtedly made things MUCH worse than they would have been under a competent & honest president.

I got no problem with masking and getting the vaccine.

But I do have a problem with being called a racist for having a different opinion

Where did I call you racist? The word racist wasn't even on the thread until you put it there. Making up stuff, just like the trump & the magats.

I got confused and mistook this for the other image
