    If a campaigning candidate's words matter that much, then I can't wait to see Joe get beaten up for not curing cancer.
    Biden outright promised to cure cancer.

    Five years of trying to hold Trump to some higher standard of preciseness and perfection while expecting every Democrat to be a mere human lying politician has engendered a heck of a lot of sympathy and support for Trump. Treating Trump very differently from every other elected President has worked very well for Trump.

    so your comparing Biden's push to find a cure for cancer
    with Trump's push for a Muslim ban?

    if Biden put's money into research for cancer, yes, I will assume Biden is trying to accomplish his goal of helping find a cure for cancer...

    The countries were the same other than Iraq was excluded. You're the one who drew a contrast between the two plans.

    So then the first plan was MORE of a 'Muslim ban' than the second?

    Actually I was pointing out your insistence that "words matter". Seems that is only true depending on who is "saying words" then.

    Anyway, good luck to Joe on curing cancer, since that is what he promised. He might be better focusing on Alzheimer's research, but that would require focus.

    You missed her point. Biden said that he WILL cure cancer. He didn't say that he has a "goal of helping find a cure for cancer."

    The people turn a blind's eye when sleepy Joe does it, but attack the very breath that Donald Trump breaths. Very very sad to say the least! I am not a Trump fan. I am not an Obama fan. I am not a fan of almost any elected officials. But I certainly don't "hate" them with every breath I take!

    that is one of his goals, you do know how government works right, Congress has to have the same goals

    how is that Trump wall that was paid for by Mexico comming along

    just cause Trump or Biden's wants something, only means that is what they want

    do you support Biden's goal to find cures for cancer, I do, think we could both be supportive of that (personaly I think a big part of it is our high carb diets)

    So will you eventually ask the question, how is that Biden effort to cure cancer coming along?

    Again, Biden PROMISED to cure cancer! He said that he WILL do it!

    So mutant strain is worse than the virus in the first place vs. none?

    Why did you draw a contrast between the two travel ban orders?

    You're confused. Here is the question: why did you draw a contrast between the two travel ban orders?
