Is personal behavior and integrity important in selecting a POTUS? Why or Why Not?
Like my last question, looking for an honest answer and not a debate or argument.

@independentone We should really consider term limits strongly and political dynasties. Our country was created with a desire to avoid royalty but it creeped in pretty fast.
I believe a 4-term limit for House seats should be implemented and a 2-term limit for the Senate. We may also want to shorten the Senate term to 4 years and also mandate a term limit for Supreme Court appointees, something like 6 years and you're out.

@independentone Look whose currently running the show !
independentone · M
@Picklebobble2 Yeah, and, in my opinion, there are more problems now than before he became president.

@independentone Well, certainly the wrong decision to think you could 'borrow your way out of problems'.
And to completely 'dismiss' the rapidly approaching Covid-19 onslaught initially ?......Look what happened there ?
Once you open 'Pandora's box' watch what happens.

since wilson sold the white house to hide a torrid affair with a new york school teacher integrity among politicians is just a stump speech phrase. personal behavior is whatever people believe from those yelling loudest. for example most americans believe trump to be a racist and none can find a single example of a racist thing he has said or done. it is on the other hand very easy to locate video and printed evidence of trump for example being called the greatest friend minorities have by jessie jackson or the fact that the civil rights act requires hiring of 10% companies for contract building and trump has always had between 24 and 35% minority owned contractors work for him. joe biden has said if you have to think about who to vote for you aint black but is not called a racist. proving that he voted against segregation repeatedly is very easy but again passed over. so the picture of personal behavior is painted mostly by those speaking the loudest

Sure!
And I like the way Trump behaves and his integrity as an example.
Sure he's tough on his opponents.
And conservatives realize that better than anyone!
We get physically beaten and / or defamed for wearing MAGA hats!
We gotta fight back.
Nick Sandmann fought back in court and has won biggly!
Trump needs to fight back every day - the media is relentless.
And Trump is fighting for our liberties and freedoms.
And, unlike so many politicians - Trump has kept his promises he made to us. And then some! He has remained true to our conservative values.
That is integrity plus!

I think if it isn’t, it should be. I think there should be a minimum standard, that the “leader of the free world” behaves like an adult and doesn’t call names or spread gossip. There are jobs with a lot fewer security concerns than [b]President[/b] where someone caught doing that would be fired. 😳
