    So, after an audit of Twitter we find out that around 49% of Biden’s following are…..bots. Just bots. Ya know….fake stuff.
    That said, whilst listening to the news I was reminded that the 49% of fake stuff is higher than his approval rating.

    US oil reserves, which Biden loudly released in an effort to bring down gasoline prices, or so we were told, have been sold to Europe and, of all places, China. In an American crisis, we're selling oil to China.

    It’s Russia’s fault and maybe Trump’s collusion with Putin has something to do with it or those nasty Saudi’s who won’t answer the phone when Biden calls for help after he dissed the Crown Prince.
    Whatever the case, I’ve been assured that none of it has anything to do with the Oval Office. They be’s squeaky clean.

    Congress HAS to force a vote and get the oil reins out of Biden’s hands. If they don’t, I’m going to have to trade in the Ford for a wagon pulling mo-ped.

    A thread with this topic would've been shot down in flames over on another senior forum called:

    -- Logo from another Senior's forum removed. While I appreciate the sentiment, I'd rather not have any forum wars here, at least not by name. Thanks. By the way, this is not a reprimand or anything of the sort. Welcome to the forum. I hope you'll like it here. -- Ken Anderson

    Yup.

    That's why I'm here and not there.

    Ah yes. I think 95% of the members here have been or still are members of that forum.

    And….by the bye….Welcome to the REAL SeniorsOnly Club where men can be men, women can be women and most of us are thankful for the difference.

    Pick your place at the table and enjoy whatever’s there.

    It's why I left too. A member over there (a while back) introduced a topic whereby the moderator allowed only one viewpoint to be expressed when it was clear there was another side to it. But it was a side the moderator objected to. So she deleted my comments and the comments of several others. That was the last time I ever posted over there.

    The same was true of Obama. A large percentage of his followers were bots that he had paid for in order to inflate his numbers.

    Hmmm. Makes me wonder how many of those bots voted for Biden in 2020....

    Maybe I should have started a new thread called, “Catch of the Day” which would be those metaphors, satirical sentences and stuff that’s sort of describes this president and his tenure but naw…..I’ll just list a couple and see how they fly.

    From Sky News yesterday….”That’s what you get when you have a mail order president”.

    From a Fox contributor I heard today speaking on sympathizers of Biden’s mental condition…….”Oh you leave that poor man alone. He thinks Elon Musk is his wife’s perfume”.

    As an aside, the "Jim Crow on steroids" that was supposed to be Georgia's voter security act, has actually INCREASED Black voter turnout in the primaries due to end today. The Administration answered when queried on that, "Well, it would have been MUCH higher had the law not gone into effect."

    One has the right to opine as to whether they “think” the results might have been higher but there is NO way to prove it ergo the administration’s answer is as irrelevant as the new press secretary’s answer about inflation and taxing the rich. Bogus.

    I heard a commentator quote a column that stated that many of Biden's problem are due to the fact that he has no problem-solvers in his administration. Most of the posts were filled according to race, gender, sexual orientation, etc., rather than ability, so when there is a problem, there is a shortage of ideas as to how to address it since there is a shortage of wisdom and experience throughout the administration. Trump filled up the Strategic Petroleum reserves with cheap oil and Biden has emptied much of it; many of the Black appointees have already left the administration, since were chosen for their appearance rather than their ability and when they express an opinion, they are always sot down and told (figuratively) to stay in their place. The Biden strategists are now trying to filling the vacant positions previously occupied by Blacks with those of Asian heritage. I suspect the same issue will appear. The stated inflation when Biden took office was in the neighborhood of 1.4% and is now around 8.7%, and we all know it is really higher than that for things that matter.

    Kamala Harris is the first example of filling a position simply because of race and gender.
    I think Biden (and his handlers) have attempted to “trump” Trump in that Trump’s cabinet and other advisors was made up of a cross section of social groups but unlike Biden’s woke cabinet, they were highly professional.

    Trump had to BE professional to pick professionals disregarding whatever social slots the candidates fit into. I don’t think for a minute that his first thought when picking his cabinet had anything to do with gender, race or whatever their sexual orientation happened to be.
    On the other hand, I have no doubt that Biden’s first criteria was to fill the cabinet with various races, genders and again, sexual orientations in order to avoid finger pointing by those who suspect (and know) that he is a racist and he is misogynistic. His pick for the Supreme Court confirms that when he deliberately ordered that only black females would be considered for the position. Reverse psychology? Sure and it does work for some people.
