    The fromer Republican party and I want to call it the Reb-publican
party cause they are animated by racism as are most of
the measures to suppress voting pretended to be the the party of
the working citizens but they ain't. Bunch of Union-busting
kleptocrats. But the  real name of the party which elected Trump is
MAGA. And #47 said so on election night.
 
    And yet we have American citizens who did not know that
Biden had dropped out and did not know that Harris and Walz were
the candidates of the Democratic party. As shown by search engines
queried on Election Day.
 
    Americans prefer games to the duties of citizenship,
one of which is to stay well informed as to political matters.

I don't mind off topic discussions here but some do as the following
quotations demonstrate.

Speculative Fiction ?" Lynn

"It is not pertinent to this Newsgroup at all but that is one of
the characteristics of Trolls spreading disinformation at the behest
of either their own or other causes that they do not care a whit for
the nature of the group in or its interests. They just have to get
the lies out." bliss
