Hal, I think your point today was to push for a No Labels candidate as an alternative to Trump or Biden. I still maintain that a 3rd party candidate will be catastrophic and will throw the election to Trump. I also think you are underselling Biden here and are excessively lukewarm on Trump.

In fact, Biden's liabilities pale in comparison to the treasonous activities of his rival. Biden is our best bet at this point to save our country.

I'm still waiting to see the response from Congress to the recent article to be published next year by conservative law professors Baude and Paulsen which make the case that Trump is ineligible to run for President and must obtain 2/3 vote from Congress. Quote from their article: “Donald Trump cannot be president — cannot run for president, cannot become president, cannot hold office — unless two-thirds of Congress decides to grant him amnesty for his conduct on Jan. 6.”

Why did you skip Jimmy Carter’s low approval ratings?

The U.S. is in for a very hard landing - or worse - no matter who wins the presidency. The country has been on a five-decade bender (since the 1971 demise of Bretton Woods), slumping into a self-satisfied, delusional stupor from which it will awaken with the mother of all hangovers and the realization that its empire has been vanquished - not by its enemies, but by its own mendacious hubris - and the money is either gone or worthless. Get ready for the Sino-Russo century.

While I may disagree with your summary of either Biden or Trump, I strongly support the No Labels initiative AND their ‘Common Sense’ proposals. We ALL need for the majority to take back our government from the fringe on the left and right.

A vote for No Labels will ensure a win for Trump. What is your definition of 'major?' White only?
