As a Canadian I find American politics to be interesting but people who are incredibly partisan; pardon me for saying so but they seem to be some of the stupidest Americans alive today. When I see a person refer to their ideological opposition as "Trumpkins" as a Canadian I know that person is completely and totally ideologically captured. I got about a minute and 40 seconds into your video before I shut it off. I'm sure to people in your Echo chamber what you have to say is probably very compelling but as a Canadian what do you offer me that I can't get from MSNBC or CNN at a much higher production value?
I found your channel through your rundown on HP5 v KM400 and then saw you fly fish. As a Kiwi fly fishing photographer that alone grabbed my interest. As a non American I look at your election race in amazement, out of 340 odd million ppl surely the two main candidates are a source of frustration for you guys. From outside RFK Jnr seems a compelling choice surely?? Your views??
Hey, watching you from all the way down in Fuquay - Varina NC. lol Love the channel! My father back in the 80's owned a pipe shop called United Tobacco Works. We as a family were Republicans till Trump took over and turned it fascist, now we are proud Democrats. Wonderful to find like minded folk, keep up the good work.
I can't say im shocked or even surprised by the current situation we find ourselves in. Im certainly not amused. Those seem to be the most common reactions i heard from my fellow Americans today. This was the topic of discussion that i heard around me nearly all day. Until a tractor broke down. Then we talked about that. I avoided hearing what the internet had to say until i clicked on this video. I guess i am a little surprised that you are surprised. "The good guys are bad and the bad guys aren't good". That pretty much sums it up. Nothing new there but it does seem particularly evident right now. I feel like i should be happy to see people around me engaging in the kind of cynicism in regard to politics that i regularly do. It doesn't warm my cold little heart to see people awaken to a disturbing reality. I thought it might. But it doesn't. Good luck everyone. I suggest swimming trunks rather than a speedo. I understand the water off Norway is quite cold. Best to make a good first impression. One wouldn't want to appear shriveled and impotent in front of people descended from vikings.
I mean, that was kinda the point of the video. I saw this coming years ago, but no one listens to me. Except apparently a bunch of trumpkins who can't stop themselves from giving my channel the most engagement it has had in years. Thanks! BTW, did you catch the moment in the debate when Trump's incontinence got the better of him? And probably everyone else on stage?
@askGribs... thanks for responding....love hearing from you. Loved seeing the box of huggies under your bench. No worries about labelling what/who you are. I just appreciate people who stand up. It is clear to me that both parties pick and choose where they can interfere with our lives. I'm not anti government, but pro judicious use of government. Here's one thing that the rest of the world realizes. PAY FOR COLLEGE!.... Your graduates will return (in taxes) your investment three-fold. What dumbasses we are in this country.
Loved the opening. I think there might be something in our age group. I don't know, but i suspect it has something to do with Soundgarden. We all just kind of landed in this frame of mind that is hard to explain. In the end, we're just sick of ALL the old bullsh*t from past generations. Like, "you all chose that, don't look at us."
@Gribley go ahead lol. You were shocked 4 years after you knew about Biden. That's hilarious 😂 Edit to say: OMG no don't pin of shame me to your 4k followers 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Buddy, the whole point of the video was that I called it four years ago and I'm sad to be proven right. But unlike fascists, some of us have faith and hope. I'd rather be disappointed holding out for something good than living in fear. Re: followers, you're one of em, and you seem to have enough shame already, so I guess my work is done.
@Gribley yeah but in-between you were all about it. You can't say you called it after you reversed your call. Again, I see why you don't discuss politics.
@Gribley you supported the demented guy after realizing he was in cognitive decline. And you have the nerve to talk to me about shame? I have none in my vote for Trump. No matter what you call me. The overuse of these terms has rendered them useless. You sound triggered pretending to know anything about someone on the internet you have never met. Super smart.
Continuing your video … I did watch the debate last night … I lean Republican but basically I am an Independent … I have only ever voted once in my life and that was for Ross Perot back when I was able to vote for the first time … I voted that way because I was probably frustrated with the “top” choices at the time … #askGribs: “Who is the Third Party this time Around?!”
I learned all I know about NJ from Springsteen songs and the Sopranos, so I will just say this: Watch out for the Jersey Devil and Czech Interior Decorators! And listen to this! ruclips.net/video/oovn9FOBwEY/видео.html
This video proves "Sunday" antisocial is just a red herring. #Make antisocial great again #askgribs A true codger is a codger weekly, not only on one day. Will your rants return as it use to?
For the flag thing, I ran my I.C.E. weed eater and back pack blower for 50 min each, 1 min for each state just in protest. As for Biden... he looks and sounds like a lot of my past patients I have worked with in long term care. But I am also not a fan for Trump, so don't get me wrong. We have not had a suitable person to run for president in a long time. McCain was decent, but he to had somethings I did not support. I am a get off my property kind of guy. See you next week.
We have a carbon tax. I'm going to have a big 1 ton diesel with a bumper sticker that says "I paid my carbon tax" with an image of smoke lol. Old enough of a truck to have zero emissions and run off of used motor oil...
I just did not like the upside down flag. I think if I was wanting to disrespect the country I lived in, I would start with the flag. Yes, it's your right, but... wow! 😢
@@ForgottenRebel77 wow! you must be younger then 35. sorry to agree, to disagree on this one. a flag has two ways to be flown and displayed. upside down, is not one of them, because someone's underwear got bunched up... you are right, and luckily you live in a country that allows this horse shit, and can get away with freedom of speech to protest. it is disrespectful to the proud people that support the country they live in, i have many problems with our government leaders at this time as it seems we have no real person to vote for. but as far as what i found on line about the flag upside down. none of them do i think is a correct reason for hanging it upside down. just me maybe. not a hill i am willing to die for. but you keep thinking its not disrespectful.
Fun fact #1 Canadians are bound by our fear of bears, not moose. Fun fact #2 Quebecers are Quebecquois (quebeckwa). Their separatist party may come in second in our next federal election. If they ran candidates outside Quebec they would probably become the government. Thats how fucked up things are here. #askgribs why do you only have two parties?
Lables are a far cry from reality. Democrats look more like the government from V than Republicans. The moral decay of society has led to the actual decay of society. Look around. Do you see a bright future? Cost of living is beyond affordable. We are about to plunge into WW3. Will you go fight? Will you consent to people you love and care about being forced to fight? Bet not. Stop being stupid, libiot!!! The next phase of things leads to a revisit to the mid 1800's. Think about it... @Gribley
Trumpkins! Thanks for my highest engagement in a long time. Keep those salty comments coming! I can do this all day . . .

Intro was funny tho. Sums up exactly how I envision all people with in the same trench as you looking 😅 EVEN THO YOU COULD ALLLL SEE IT FOR YEARS 😅

Just the first 12 seconds mirrors my own reaction.

Always!

If these are your views I wouldn't discuss politics either.
Leaving this up so everyone knows who you are. Have fun explaining to your kids why you supported a 34x convicted felon.

I really thought about live-streaming my reaction to the debate, but now I'm very glad I didn't.

Taking my 7 year old son camping all next week at High Point, New Jersey … highest elevation in the state at 1800 feet … in the Appalachians!!
