What is more amazing is the media pundits didn't say anything about it. Particularly with Anderson Cooper. You could see Anderson's knowing glare while Biden was "uh... um..." and then start reading off a teleprompter. You can OBVIOUSLY see his eyes moving back and forth as he reads it. And Cooper said nothing.It certainly lines up with the evidence. I don't think there's anything particularly smart about voting for Biden, but Trump's anti-intellectualism and confused rhetoric make it pretty hard for intelligent people to sign on. Not saying they don't - lesser-of-two-evils prompts otherwise smart people to do all kinds of idiotic shit (like voting for Biden for example), but it's pretty obvious that the educated elite aren't Trump's base.
I don't care near as much about what ANY politician says as much as what they DO.
Trump's actions, policies and results is not that bad... in fact, pretty good compared to the past 3 Presidents at least.
Trump's speaking style is atrocious. He is also an egomaniac. But what he actually DOES is another thing.
Biden doesn't even answer his own questions in live interviews, he reads what other people tell him to answer. You cool with that?
The teleprompter for Biden on questions to the public is truly bizarre, isn't it? And he looked like a pigeon waiting for a piece of bread waiting for his answer to appear. He obviously had no idea what to say until the teleprompter came up with his answer. Absolutely amazing
Not even close.Spot on. FactNot even close.The republicans are just as bad as the Dems.What do you need a third party for?...Better you purge your own party of the Marxist crackpots that are infesting it.If the Dems lose and trump goes for another 4 then it’s rip for a third party to come in 2024. I’d love to see a strong play for that if that’s the situationThe problem is, if Trump wins again, the Dems STILL won't look in the mirror.I’ve been talking to a lot of Republicans about this and I actually hear a lot of them say that they really don’t like the man Trump is or how he acts, but they dislike the Dems even more as they don’t believe in many of their extreme policy objectives. So they are voting for Trump because of the common enemy not because they support all he does and says.This is just a guess, of course, but somewhere around 48% of those who vote in November will be voting for Donald Trump. Without going into the laundry list of obvious examples or any of the standard talking points, there are certainly plenty of reasons not to. Yet he has a perfectly reasonable chance of winning.
Right now, polls show that about 43% of Americans approve of the job he's doing. This, after everything that has happened, and that number should be a very sobering indication of where this country is right now. Personally, I try to understand how these people can do this, but I still only understand some of it.
Anyway, here's the point: Elections are about contrasts. Choices. How can that many people support this disaster of a person? For many of them, they're looking at the alternative. And when those who provide their information and opinions for them point at things like PC and Identity Politics and Cancel Culture and an overall culture in decay, they can make reasonable points not to vote for the Democratic party. Even with, amazingly, this profoundly damaged person in the White House.
It's certainly too late to make any changes before November, but the Democratic party had a chance to take over the middle, and I don't see that happening. There is no excuse, zero, none, for the race to be this close. Regardless of who wins, the Democrats have too often allowed the wrong voices to represent them. It allows the Trumpsters to tie all the silliest crap coming from the hardcore Left to the milquetoast, feeble Biden.
This should be a learning experience, but I'm doubtful.
I think you’re right about the way the wings play into this. If the Dems go hard on the progressive causes... anti-gun, PC, cancel culture, raising taxes, regulating energy etc they are going to isolate many swing voters and push them into Trumps camp.
This is madness.
They've allowed their party to be run over with marxist communist idiots and then tell us we need a third party. Yeah, that's exactly right. They need to purge their own depraved idiots and there are a lot of them.
You mean like the Clarence Thomas hearings where he helped his fellow Dims to smear the man? What has he worked with Republicans to do?He has worked with Republicans his whole career. You haven’t paid attentionThere is a big portion of the educated elite are trumps bases despite the fact he is a flaming idiot... they support him because he has more policies that will make them more money. Plain and simpleAnnnnd.... once AGAIN... you speak totally from a left prospective, while pretending to be providing a centered argument.This is just a guess, of course, but somewhere around 48% of those who vote in November will be voting for Donald Trump. Without going into the laundry list of obvious examples or any of the standard talking points, there are certainly plenty of reasons not to. Yet he has a perfectly reasonable chance of winning.

The crux of your little post is simple:... Stupid fucking people will vote for Trump. Not every one is fucking stupid. The Democrats should be able to attract people who aren't so stupid. But they didn't.
And in your world.... that is an objective question/argument.
Holy cow

Biden isn’t there for groundbreaking ideas.His biggest asset is his relationships in congress and ability to unite. People who want our government to start working together instead of fighting like school
Children doing nothing should support Biden
WTF? When has Biden done anything inclusive? The guy is a total divider and hate monger
I know that I went to bed that night assuming Trump was beaten.Yeah. But this is unforgivable. Not against this creature.This is just a guess, of course, but somewhere around 48% of those who vote in November will be voting for Donald Trump.

The Democrats certainly have a gift for snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory!
Trump only won Florida, Pennsylvania, Wisconson & Minnesota by less than 1% in 1026.
If Biden does just a tiny bit better than Clinton, and Trump does a tiny bit worse than he did in 2016, It'll be a Biden landslide.
So I'll believe it when I see it.
Yeah...after 2016 we all have the woolies.....
Maybe repeating the plan and going from Hillary to Biden wasn't the best move then
They certainly conservatives in line with Reagan and Goldwater, indeed. Disagreement with Trump is Americanism, not 'commie scum.' There are no Marxists in America as you describe. I do believe the far right of the GOP is awash with cultural fascism.Yes, Will, McCain, Romney, Kasich are hardly conservatives. If they said they weren't going to vote for Trump that's one thing, but voting for Biden is another. What a pathetic lot. They went from my disagreeing with them to their being Commie scum who are voting and endorsing an America hating Marxist. You know, like you. Who the hell is "Army?"

If elections are about contrasts, then think about the contrast between Biden and Trump.
Trump won't have a chance...a turnip would look good compared with Trump.
You are right. The Dems will not let Trumpism be forced on the American people.Like I've said before, call it whatever you want, if people wanted it, you wouldn't have to force it on them. You can call it something pretty, but it still stinks.The terms 'marxism' and 'socialism' do not scare Americans and will not help the GOP.

The power of the states' minority vote to obstruct will change. In fact, the NPV will law of the land by 2024.People like you should not have their votes equal to people like me. We need to change that.Democrats crowed about the EC in 2012 when Obama won re-election. Then they melted down about it in 2016 when Trump won. Their indignation is totally driven by circumstance.
Why would they crow about it. Obama won the Popular vote handily....
I don't want PV and would never want it regardless of how elections turned out. That would just be tyranny of the majority
And so? As opposed to what, the tyranny of the minority?
I trust the people to get these things right, thank you... You clearly don't.
The fact is that the right wing of the Nazis slaughtered its own left wing as well as the commies and the socialists.You have NFI what you're blabbering about.
Röhm was a homo, which went against everything the eugenics of the Master Race was about...Had to be eliminated.
Actually, Hitler had no problem with Roehm's homosexuality... Roehm was about the closest thing that Hitler had to a friend in the NSDAP... He was one of the few people who called him, "Adolf" instead of "Mein Fuhrer".
Strasser was a direct political rival working with Kurt von Schliecher, and needed to be eliminated....That's how purges work.
JFC, even your understanding of history is one ling string of fucking fairy tales.
Strasser was a member of the NSDAP, one of the founding members, in fact. The thing was, Schliecher was a left-winger hoping to split the Right and Left halves of NSDAP to weaken it... By the time he was murdered, Strasser was out of politics altogether... Hitler just purged him out of spite.
My understanding of history was good enough to get me a degree from UIC. What do you have?
Argument from authority fallacy. Do you know what you're talking about or not? Your degree is not relevant
Ahhhh....The old tax rate as opposed to total tax bill shell game.You are funny!

I love that fake claim.

America's richest 400 families now pay a lower tax rate than the middle class
BY AIMEE PICCHI
UPDATED ON: OCTOBER 17, 2019 / 4:43 PM / MONEYWATCH
- The 400 richest U.S. families now pay a lower overall tax rate than the middle-class, the first time that's happened in 100 years, according to economists Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman.
- Factoring in federal, state and local taxes, those ultra-wealthy households pay a total rate of about 23% — that compares with just over 24% for the bottom half of households.
- The U.S. now "looks like the tax system of a plutocracy," Saez and Zucman say.
Guess what, Francis, the wealthy pay lower rates because their "income" comes from mostly passive sources not associated with wages and salaries....The wealthy STILL pay the most taxes by far, as a matter of total tax bills.
But you already know this, and are just being a disingenuous partisan class warrior shitbag.
Q. Why are you such a shithead?
A. Desperate need for attention.
CEOs made 287 times more money last year than their workers did
Companies have finally started reporting CEO-worker pay ratios. Now we know why they fought so hard to avoid it.www.vox.com
After years of kicking and screaming, corporate executives have finally released pay data on what their CEO makes versus their median worker.
Unsurprisingly, the gap is obscene. The average chief executive of an S&P 500 company earned 287 times more than their median employee last year, according to an analysis of the new federal data released Tuesday by the AFL-CIO labor federation. America’s CEOs earned a staggering $14.5 million in 2018, on average, compared to the average $39,888 that rank-and-file workers made. And CEOs got a $500,000 bump compared to the previous year, while the average US worker barely got more than $1,000.
Of course the Tax Fraud written by Ryan and signed by Trump has increased this discrepancy for CEO's and other high earning tax payers, by eliminating the two highest tax brackets; while they limited the deduction for Real Estate and State income taxes.
The carrot to the Middle Classes and working poor, the doubling of the standard deduction will sunset in 2027, and of course during the 10 years it is in effect state and local taxes and fees will rise each year.
This simple explanation of the truth may perplex some, the biddable fools who believe Trump and people like Odd Dude.
Keep thinking that way, and the Dems will do even better.Maybe if you burn down a few more of your cities it will put you over the top. If you burn your cities and keep your states locked down until the election, you can have it all locked up.I know it is hard for you, but there it is: the Dems are pulling away.Why are you trolling? No one is melting down, and the Dems are ecstatic they are slowly pulling away from the Pubs and Trump.There's all sorts of insider trading going on in congress....It transcends party affiliation....Stopped being shocking back in the 1990s.
"Oddball justifies his side's criminal behavior by lying about how everyone does it. Film at 11."
That's a common way in which conservatives justify their immoral behavior. They make up a story that the liberals are doing it too, which forced them to be criminals as well.
Needless to say, liberals don't do the "Waaa! The other side made me do the crime!" thing. It's part of being an adult and taking responsibility, so the conservatives here won't be able to understand.
Another meltdown? This afternoon isn't going well for you, is it drama queen?
Dems are pulling away? What color is the sky in your world?
And try not to cry, Jake. Steady nerves there
It is good to see that McSally will lose in Arizona, which appears to be going blue. Tuberville in AL will balance with defeating Jones.
It's going to be a very good election for the Dems.

Biden has not suffered the 20 year long attack on his character the way Clinton did. The Trumpbots have just started their B.S., but it won't be effective.
The fact is that the political middle out numbers the political left by at least 10:1. Biden has a way better chance than a more radical candidate.
They certainly conservatives in line with Reagan and Goldwater, indeed. Disagreement with Trump is Americanism, not 'commie scum.' There are no Marxists in America as you describe.

You you going to pull that off, Fakey Jakey?
BLM is not the govt. nor is it a govt. body, nor is it a political party in power in the US. They are disgruntled people tired of harassment by the state..Excuse me...........I can't hear you over the BLM Burn Loot Murder Crowd yelling and screaming.It would be very nice if Republican wanna bees could speak without the th echo chamber dog whistles that show up every election.Ie Neo-Marxism, communism, socialism all connotations of actions that will not happen just because the opposition may get elected.This is just a guess, of course, but somewhere around 48% of those who vote in November will be voting for Donald Trump.

The Democrats need to retake control of their party, they need to tell the Neo-Marxists to GTFO because NO Western nation and ESPECIALLY America wants Marxism and wants to collapse Capitalism and replace it with Anarchy and a Communist System.
sorry......COULD YOU SPEAK UP PLEASE.
Lol this comes from the guy who listens to talk radio 24/7 and bitches about it?Wrong. So much for the rest of your point.The problem, MAC, is you get all your information from the corporate media.
I listen as much as I can so that I know how you guys think and where your opinions come from.Lol this comes from the guy who listens to talk radio 24/7 and bitches about it?Wrong. So much for the rest of your point.The problem, MAC, is you get all your information from the corporate media.
I agree that elections are about contrasts, but I'm curious what you believe the left is offering people. As far as I can tell, the democrats only have one viable policy which is healthcare. That is a problem, especially when you think about who actually needs more government involvement in healthcare. With medicare and medicaid, who exactly is the target for further involvement? Add in the fact that democrats are pushing that ALL white people are racists, and causing spikes in violent crime, what again are democrats offering working people? It gets even worse when democrats are promising to raise taxes during a recovery and plan to raise the costs of energy. I can't see how rational people would choose what the democrats are offering because they don't like Trump as a person.This is just a guess, of course, but somewhere around 48% of those who vote in November will be voting for Donald Trump. Without going into the laundry list of obvious examples or any of the standard talking points, there are certainly plenty of reasons not to. Yet he has a perfectly reasonable chance of winning.
