    Re: US Election 2020 Coverage Thread

    I had really hoped not to see this downfall in my lifetime. It's had times of just chugging along, but the last few years it's been like a roller coaster finally plunging over that first big drop. There isn't much news about the actual campaign yet, which, I think is why 45 wants to open everything up. He wants to do rallies again. I'm curious as to how Biden will do his. He'll have to stay visible somehow.

        They're going to press the molestation accusation against Biden.

        Biden has one shaky accusation, tRump has over 30, covered a liaison in with a porn actress, and has admitted to gross sexual misconduct.

        But, you know, tRump is God and can do no wrong (or, at least, he won't take responsibility for any...).

          This is the same old he said, she said accusation. Did the accuser had any proof at all on Biden? Because I don't believe anything she said.

              So Biden saying "if you vote Trump, you ain't black" and media defending that? America is weird, and full of racists on every side of the political spectrum...

                    If you want to claim that dumb words make him prejudice, go for it.

                    But also examine his record.

                    And don't forget to balance Biden's clumsy mouth with tRump's utter... (words fail me here).

                    Americans have to make a choice. The lesser evil is far, far less evil than the greater evil.

                    P.S. - the molestation charge against him has fallen apart. The accused has demonstrated herself to be a fabulist. Her lawyers have dropped her like a hot microwaved bowl of oatmeal.

                      Biden has a talent for opening his mouth and inserting a foot into it. Most years this would irritate me more than a little. This year, my position on the election amounts to an option of Trump, Not-Trump, vacate the US. Trump is not acceptable to me and Not-Trump needs to be epically terrible before I suffer the sheer migraine of making option 3 a viable plan.
                      life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

                      "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

                        I just don't understand, there were so many better democrat candidates than Biden, imho. Is there something I'm missing here? It just seems the democrats shoot themselves in the foot with Biden.

                          I don't identify as a Democrat* so perhaps I'm also missing something, but I completely agree. I don't know why they chose an old dude with known and obvious health issues over the numerous candidates that are so much better. Everyone has their flaws and draw-backs. I get that, but Biden is in no shape to be President.

                            Vote for his vice president. Most likely Warren.

                              If by “they” you mean the voters who turned out, then yes I agree. But I dislike the narrative that “they” the Democratic Party chose him for us, because honestly this primary was wide open. If progressives didn’t turn out (and we kind of didn’t) that’s on us.
                              If you want to be thought intelligent, just agree with everyone.

                                There's a lot of talk about Pence either defecting or being bumped, and Trump choosing a new running mate. I don't care who he picks - he just can't be allowed to win again. This never should have happened in the first place. I think we're in an alternate reality, and it's not at all fun.
