Current Affairs Donald Trump POS: Judgement cometh and that right soon

[TheFinnFan]

I very much hope so buddy. Sorry for missing your birthday, I was bannerino'd. Hope it was a good'un.

Do you think the Donald will win bigly again? Looking tighter than last time.

Thanks mate. Had nice weekend with family. I think Biden has no chance. He's senile and corrupt. Also, Trump is way more popular than msm leds everybody to believe.

She will make absolutely no difference to the policies of a Biden administration (indeed you could argue that if he picks a moderate veep he'll have to move further left to pacify that part of the base, whereas a VP such as Warren would allow him to remain more centrist in his policies while achieving the same) but is somehow a game changer.

As much as I like Warren, I don't want her as VP.

The Dems need to get younger, newer-ish blood.

And Massachusetts doesn't need our Republican governor appointing her replacement to the Senate even for the several months until a special election.

So Biden can't win because he lacks Trump's incisive mind and strong ethical grounding?

I find this a very counterintuitive take on things.

I took it as you'd need a really strong and non-stained (by scandal) leader to beat Trump because somehow he's very popular within his tranche of the population.

Does Biden offer that? Is he a strong opposition? Sadly, I think not and as such Trump, with his own clear and blatant failings, will probably become president.

That makes sense in theory but in practice we know there are no pure candidates to oppose the filthy candidates, so I don't think Trump's opponent has to be as good as Trump is bad. Besides, the lack of feverish passion for a Biden candidacy doesn't indicate a lack of feverish passion on the Dem side; it's just that the feverish passion is for beating Trump. Biden's more popular than social media suggests (most voters don't actually talk politics all day online) and it's heightened by Trump's unprecedented unpopularity.

But of course Trump certainly could win, in which case we'll just have to work for his sudden death and dismemberment and the scattering of his parts to the four corners of the continent.

Meanwhile, here's the latest entry from Team Trump. I'm interested in hearing what you think.

Does it help Trump that the satire that his base sees immediately and appreciates is invisible to those who hate him?

Does the ensuing fury from his opposition fuel the fire that feeds his base? Is this a strategy or are these folks just having "fun"?

Or, perhaps, it's just a expression of contempt.

@Grinch
what I dont get is how Amy Klobuchar changes your vote so much.

She's pro $15 min wage
pro free 2 yr college
pro student debt relief
eliminate the electoral college
supports a ban on assault weapons
supports background checks
Expand obamacare and provide a public option
Pro DACA
raise corporate tax
raise tax on high level earners
slash defense budget

So if she's running with Biden, he gets your vote.
If she's not its 100% Trump...

Maybe it's because she throws staplers around and that's tough?!

I have views on both sides. I’ll run down the list from what you said. - - -

e's pro $15 min wage - I do agree some states need to go up but I do not agree on a national increase. Some areas cost of living is a lot lower than other. California needs it for sure. Our southern branch could use a small increase to 9-10$ and it would do.

pro free 2 yr college - yes. Also technical colleges for electricians, welders should be included. 4 year universities and masters/doctorate should not.

pro student debt relief - no
eliminate the electoral college - no
supports a ban on assault weapons - assault weapons are banned. Most shootings happen with pistols anyway.
supports background checks - yup
Expand obamacare and provide a public option - should be both private and federal for people who qualify.
Pro DACA - no
raise corporate tax - depends. Businesses need a tax but if we tax the hell out of them, they leave. Need a good balance from where we are at. I think tax breaks are needed for businesses just not all.
raise tax on high level earners - sure thing.
slash defense budget - agree. We spend to much. We have an entire desert full of tanks in Arizona that aren’t being used. Need spending but could put money elsewhere.

I just really enjoyed her speeches, the way she carried herself, her story and everything about her. I will not 100% agree with any one politician but she would have my vote. Also liked how she would reform prisons further but will continue to punish people who need to be.
I disagree with a lot trump puts out but I love a lot of the things he brought to the table.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Nearly four pages on disputing Trumps obesity so far. Bidens sex beastity gets not 1/8th of a page.

Really makes you think.

Whataboutism. Reported.

What do you love that he brought to the table?
Also, I get that your never going to agree with everything a politician stands for but that’s a lot to disagree with and still support.

That anti-Biden ad seems like it might be effective if seen by people who have no particular opinion regarding Trump or Biden, but sadly one of those people died in a car accident last weekend and the other two recently moved to Costa Rica.

Back to the drawing board, Team Trump.

I really liked the America first motto. I liked that a business man was coming into office because the US is almost just like a huge business. He promised to protect the borders. Brought businesses back. The economy topped out at 30k DOW. It’s down right now but slowly working it’s way back up due to a closure of all businesses. Promised to help vets and all those issues with the VA. Can’t remember if he followed through with that or not but I think I recall a couple executive orders. And I honestly liked that he didn’t talk all politically. Just kind of blurred out good and bad rhetoric. Just seemed real. Looking back, he could have improved in lots of areas but he still kept promises. Picked two, young Supreme Court judges. Though I thought the other guy Obama put up got screwed, seemed to fill it With a level headed Neal gorsich. Though you may feel indifferent about Kavanaugh. So yeah that about sums it up lol

A motto? Really?
Cheeto is most decidedly not a businessman. He's a manchild of privilege who pretends to run a (very secretive, private) business.
Protect the borders from whom? For what legitimate purpose?
The US is not "bringing back" businesses.
The DJI went up but it is a mistake to conflate the average of a certain number of stocks with "the economy".
I'm pleased he is allocating more money to the VA. How much of an impact it has made, I'm not certain based on what I've seen.

I suppose the way he speaks/carries himself could be characterized as "real".

No, half of the country did not vote for him. In fact, since 1996 (when there was a legitimate third party candidate) only one losing POTUS candidate has received a lower percentage of the overall vote than did Cheeto (McCain, who got battered by Obama).

All that said, the POTUS' approval rating, pre-COVID and now, are rather low given all the things you believe him to have accomplished, no?
