So, now that the Democrats have picked their candidate, we are supposed to pretend the third parties don't exist and concentrate ust on these two.
Let's have it, stump for your preferred candidate.
Personally I think replacing Trump with Biden is like sitting your pants and then changing your shirt.

The trick will be ... Biden & who??
-
Up until very recently, I was planning on either voting Green or writing in Gabbard. Since Biden actually stands a chance in my state now, I will probably vote for him and so long as the Republicans don't nominate someone as batshit as Trump next election use that one to start protest voting.
This election is unfortunately too important to waste my vote though.

Something I pondered for 44 years ... good luck ;-)

I'm almost tempted to vote for Trump just to see how bad things can possibly get.

I'm voting for Biden. I live in a battleground state and have no interest in voting third party in this election. I see Trump as having done a particularly terrible job leading the country. I won't give a litany of his flaws and failures but the current state of the United States and its relationship with other countries is due in no small part to his mismanagement. My husband supported Trump but after his response to the COVID-19 pandemic he has lost faith, like many other Republicans, in Trump's ability to lead. Trump's presidency has gone beyond partisanship for us and made this election about removing someone who has proven he is incompetent.

Me too. I wanna see the world totally on fire.

Good point. It is a given that people will actually be voting for Biden's running mate to be president.

How is this even a question?

In thinking about all the presidential choices I have been asked to make over many years, this election offers the worst choices I have ever been given. Trump thinks America is great. Of course that's because he's running it. Biden thinks it's great too, the only problem being that Trump is running it. He seems to want to return to the Obama years, but Biden is no Obama, and those years are long gone. Granted I think Obama was one of our better presidents since I've been old enough to vote. But we've had so many shitty presidents that saying Obama was one of the better ones is hardly a ringing endorsement. In fact it's a mostly worthless endorsement.
Try to look past the partisan bullshit and look at America as a country right now. Take away the Republicans and the Democrats and just look at the country. If you don't think anything needs to change, then either Trump or Biden is a good choice. If you think it needs change, realize that it didn't just get this way 4 years ago. It's been a slow process for at least 50 years, and any candidate who doesn't advocate serious change is telling me that he sees the country as OK.
I've lived through a lot of years in my early life that seemed like America was pretty great. Flawed for sure, but great by comparison to a lot of other countries. Today, I don't see a great country. I see a bickering country festering with self hatred putting more energy into fucking the other guy than creating a better environment for everyone. I won't be around much longer, but taking solace in the fact that I'm leaving the country in better shape than I found it is not going to be one of my dying thoughts. I will have happy thoughts, thank goodness, but that just won't be one of them.

Good point. During the Democratic Primary an effort was made to ensure we saw all 20 candidates. Now that the major party primaries are over, we are only supposed to see two candidates.

"Black people who were never slaves are fighting White people who were never Nazis over a Confederate statue erected by Democrats, because Democrats can’t stand their own history anymore. This is somehow Trump’s fault. Interesting." ... best comment on the Internet. LARPing by crisis actors. Probably triple agents like Robert Maxwell.
Never voted for Trump. Never will. But y'all need to step back from the drug stash you bought for 4th of July ;-)
I have decided I am too old to vote. If I were voting, a 3rd party candidate would be my only choice. Any 3rd party candidate.
"My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that." - Abraham Lincoln
Trump is waiting for the Darwin Award Democrats to fire on Ft Sumpter again. He is tempting the Dems, the Dems aren't tempting him. What Lincoln was doing. "Go ahead, make my day" - Trump and Lincoln

Here's a whataboutism: What about #Unity2020 ?
The two party system is the natural development of a democratic republican system of power sharing. People alone are weak. So they form parties, churches, companies, unions to magnify their competitive power (and individuals lose their personal power to do this). Eventually, in a city or a great nation, a nearly balanced two party system is formed because third parties are weak and never get anywhere (sorry). This is partly because of the US system (Presidential system with pluralistic representation) say compared to Italy (Parliamentary system with proportional representation). The problem with parliamentary systems is that you are often forced into coalitions governments ... because the polity is too divided.
One can argue as some do, that a parliamentary system is better, that proportional representation is better. But the name "Unity2020" is utopian. If there was just one person in your country, and they weren't schizoid, then you will have unity ;-) Otherwise, given the desire for power and money, unequal competition will result. And of course we have the one party dictatorship model of China. Unity by bayonet. The reality of human nature is that I am willing to put a shiv between your ribs to keep what I have, and get what I don't have ;-(
-
Jason Harvester, correct me if I'm wrong but if memory serves right, you don't vote? I think you opened the same thread before the previous election and before the one before that with the same 'why do we have two parties only' rant?
Yeah I get it. Everyone gets it. However, if you don't run for a cave after every election and live there till the next one, what is so surprising about all this? What's the deal? How does Trump vs someone confuse you under all these circumstances?

Well today is not the time to vote Libertarian. That party wants to act like Trump on steroids and burn everything and that means all the socialist programs, environmental and civil protections out the door. They even want to let the private sector run many things and have a naive approach to free trade and believe private companies are angels and won't screw us all to death.
-
Actually I do vote, regularly, third party.
Of course "this is the most important election evar" just like in 1972, 1976, 1980, 1984, 1988, 1992, 1996, 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016, so we can't afford to consider third parties.

Why I am not a Republican
Why I am not a Democrat? Running everything from the center, by committee.

You write that as if coalition governments are bad. I view them as a net positive because of the vibrant discourse and *gasp* concessions and *double gasp* compromises the elected official are willing to make. This in turn results in genuine discussion in public - I'm wary of people talking about disagreements between political parties as if nothing gets done.

#Unity2020 was, in large part, started by Bret Weinstein and has gotten a life of its own apart from its originators. I wouldn't dismiss it that easily offhand. We'll see if this rock will fly.
The people who only desire power and wealth are simpletons.

Do libertarians have any better policies this year than they did in 2016, 2012, etc? Got a plan for pandemics? Global warming? Universal healthcare?

Yes to the first part. Per Bismarck if you don't like how sausage is made, you won't like how legislation is made ;-) If you don't want disagreements, have a dictator, who is not schizoid.
Bret Weinstein was cucked by the degenerates at Evergreen College. Like 2016 when Bernie was cucked by a couple of BLM bitches.
-

Not a libertarian, but if you define that as a completely random free person, having any plan for anything is a contradiction. A totally free person (lunatic?) isn't concerned about any collective problems. They don't even have any concerns of their own. Think of a beach bum in California during an LSD trip.
Sorry Dems, Trump made a pretty good speech yesterday, best since the State of the Union. NYT of course, the former employer of Karl Marx, didn't like it.
Elite opinion? If I can make a million dollars as a Democrat, I will support them. If I can make a million dollars as a Republican, I will support them. Complete degenerates, think Caligula.
-

Yes.
I greatly want everyone to have access to affordable quality healthcare, so I want to find the reason the costs have risen faster than inflation and cut those reasons out. The funny thing is if I am right about the reasons you will accuse me of wanting to prevent the poor from accessing healthcare while I attack the reasons.

Well, I suppose you have no choice but to keep your genius plan secret then.

My mistake. But then yeah, not that different than not voting. Because voting is not just about the party you want to vote for but also about the election system, the other parties, the hierarchy of the parties and the parties you don't want to vote for. Which is bullshit in theory and I absolutely agree with you on that.
However, it doesn't work that way. There is a fundemantal flaw in the understanding of concepts of 'democracy', 'constitution' or 'freedom' every where around the world but it seems that in the States it is another dimension because majority of Americans -from opposing groups- overestimate themselves, their culture, the system... That's a big mistake. It has a very big price.
This election is different. I'm not discussing if it is important for you or why you think they all have the same importance. Because if you can count all of those dates from the past 50 years like throwing confetti from a bag while voting for a third party, then Trump winning or losing doesn't really change anything for you.
Jason, when people say 'we we will go 20 years backwards' they don't mean we are going to land in 90s like in science fiction movies. These people are hell bent on to change your system completely. I know it sounds comical to you now but going backwards in these circumstances, with these dynamics mean turning a lot of places to old Detroit in the States. And eventually breaking/dividing the United States of America.

Elections are US permissive (fake) or Australian mandatory (fake). The point of police is to protect the Elite. The point of elections is to pacify the simps.

I never thought I'd be in agreement with Draconic, but:
People that vote for libertarians are less respectable than any other voters, in my opinion. Yes, even less respectable than republican voters.
Plus, if you really think voting 3rd party is a good choice, let me offer you this suggestion that would do more to benefit you as well as our country. Try jerking off on to the voting booth and walk out without even voting. I guarantee it will have more of an outcome than voting for Jo Jorgensen or any other 3rd party candidate.

I don't know. I often feel that if I had been an American., I would be very tempted to vote on neither Republicans nor democrats. But I think I would vote, third party if I found one that fit my wants better.
Would that vote ever make a difference? Probably no more than your specific vote ever would. Probably no less either. And if the only reason why it's concidered foolish to vote third party is that nobody ever votes third party,... Well that's the problem right there innit?
Look, I am in no place to get high and mighty. I think our country has the record of any industrialized western country of going without an elected government.
But I respect people who vote for voting, no more no less than that. And whatever choice, I respect making a choice equally. Even if one option aligns more than the other.
It's just that... Maybe I'm still young. But this American system does quite often seem to lead to a choice between a giant douche and a turd sandwich. And no matter how much change y'all seem to want, you're just going to repeat that cycle every four years. And if that don't change, how can anything else?
Break the wheel, khaleesi.

I don't have libertarian values. I don't see protecting property rights, promoting laissez-faire capitalism and maximizing individual autonomy as the primary purpose of government. I prefer a strong government devoted to maximizing the well-being of its citizens than minimal government. I would join a third-party based on human-centered capitalism where humanity is more important than money; the unit of an economy is each person, not each dollar; and markets exist to serve our common goals and values.

There needs to be two things to happen in this country, and possibly other countries, but I'm just going to talk for the U.S.
1- There needs to be an abolishment of the party system, all together. No republican party, no democrat party, no 3rd parties. none of it. Just candidates and what they will do.
This will cause a few things to happen: voters will be forced to actually look in to who the candidates are and what they are going to do. Lobbies will also have a harder time bribing candidates, because of instead of bribing the party as a whole, they have to specifically target individuals. It will be more costly for them to spend money on the candidates this way and candidates will be bought out way less frequently.
2- there also needs to be an abolishment of the electoral college. For me, my vote literally doesn't matter. I live in New Jersey. A very "blue" state. Even though I will be voting Biden, it doesn't matter because Biden will win New Jersey no matter what... even if Biden literally shits himself in the debates, NJ will vote Biden.
In red states, no matter what, Trump will win.
It's all about targeting swing states. The fly-over states with no population and no industry... other than Iowa with their corn and Idaho with their potatoes, they have almost nothing. It doesn't matter if Biden or trump campaigns in texas or california or New York.... those states will always vote the way they will vote, but if the candidates target the swing states strategically, they win. And that is bullshit.
It needs to be individual votes. Not "did you win this state? here is 11 points to your victory!"
Look at this map. When you know which ones are red and which are blue, historically. You know which candidate has "free points towards victory" and then they just need to close the gap in the rest of the places.
(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/Electoral_College_2016.svg/1280px-Electoral_College_2016.svg.png)
These two things need to be legislated. Not just "i'm gonna vote for who I think is the best" when that candidate is a 3rd party candidate.... Because unfortunately going off of the "if everyone voted for who they genuinely thought was the best, we wouldnt have a problem" isn't how shit works. It's not reality. We need a solidified solution. A legislation.

A general discussion from elsewhere that is illuminative ...
https://politics.stackexchange.com/questions/883/why-is-proportional-representation-not-considered-in-any-of-the-us-states
In the US proportional representation is based on geography and population. Not on race, party or ideology. The general term for problems with this is "malapportionment". The US House was set up this way in the Constitution. The US Senate and the WH were not. The Senate was originally picked by processes in each state, per state legislature or per governor. By Constitutional amendment, this was changed in regard to the US Senate in 1913. At that time, senators started to be directly elected by popular vote two in each state. Originally, the VP was the person with the second highest vote in the Electoral College. In the case of a tie, there was no rule initially (disastrous in the election of 1800, leading to the fight between Thomas Jefferson, Aaron Burr and the duel between Burr and Hamilton). There were no political parties per se, but there were strong ideologies at work, party organization was incoherent. Then in 1804, the 12th Amendment provided that the President and VP are elected separately (no gold ring for #2) and that the Senate will decide ties in the Electoral College.
The application of geographical/population proportional representation trickled slowly into state and local politics as states were formed and their constitutions amended. It wasn't until the Baker vs Carr decision of the SCOTUS in 1962, that the Federal Constitution was interpreted to mandate US-style proportional representation in the state legislatures. Before that malapportionment was common, with some voting districts having much more power per voter than other districts. Local politics had kept this cosy arrangement legal.
Proportional representation based on party is the system usually used in Parliamentary democracies. Israel's system is partly based on ethnicity (Non-Jews are partly disenfranchised) as was White S Africa. The resolution of ideology representation vs party representation is resolved by new ideologies forming new parties (usually unsuccessfully in the US system). There is no guarantee that a particular party will have representation in a parliamentary system, if that party is too small or dispersed over constituencies. And of course the battle continues with gerrymandering of the redistricting process and ideological factions within parties.
The party system in any form of elected government, is a natural development out of variance and competition. This was true by the 4th national election in the US (and the ennui between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson). I don't see that ever changing, because it requires changing reality. Of course in one-party states one is free to attempt to deny reality. The Electoral College and any other part of the US Constitution can be amended, but that takes action by the government in DC, and agreement by a 75% of the states. Any attempt to modify the legal pyramid (based on the US Constitution and from there down to local municipalities) requires working within the system. There are problems with that.
But working outside of the existing legal system (that exists at any one time) is insurrection. Essentially that is what the Confederacy did, legally state by state, but there was no provision in the US Constitution then or now, to provide for orderly secession. There had already been a fight over nullification (that a state can directly refuse to support federal law) and the secession movement of 1860 was a continuation of that. Earlier, SC had tried to nullify a federal law, under slave-holding President Andrew Jackson, and he had threatened to invade SC if they tried. Sanctuary cities are a present example of nullification.
-
At election time, one is free to imagine candidates one likes better, parties one likes better, or political machinery one likes better. Which may or may not be related to some desired change to policy (legal marijuana for example). This blows off steam from the friction of the body politic (how can I benefit myself and my friends and screw my opponents), which the MSM enflames. The alternative to elections of some sort, or at least confirmation votes of those appointed (members of the President's cabinet or SCOTUS are confirmed by the US Senate) is dictatorship or chaos. Even in Red China, there must be intense competitions happening within the Communist Party, that are opaque to the Chinese public. Need I mention Lin Biao?

If we riot, yes.
We either have to, as citizens, make them see profit in it, or see the adverse things that can happen for them, if change doesn't occur. I personally like the latter of the two. Fuck those assholes. They don't care about us... just themselves.
I'm fully in favor of countrywide riots until they buckle.

In a proportional voting system (or ranked voting), that would work just fine. But the USA's first-past-the-post voting system is structured to only truly support a two-party system.

Yes, there is profit, if on the Soros payroll ;-) People who are anti-capitalist value ideology, not money. I don't exactly disapprove though. I deny the reality of morality, ethics or legality.

In my opinion, the United States of America is the only country where people could actually collapse a system to build a new one. Actually, this is the second round of THE attempt to change this system which was already started in the past. But it is not a sprint, it's a marathon. You have passed the half mark. It is not just hard protesting either. You need to unite against the right nutters in every part of life from daily life to professional. You could do it actually.
This is not just about politics or elections. All groups against need to meet on a common denominator and stand up for each other. Learn to say NO to every kind of provocation. Boycotts of protests of all kinds.
If people learned to say no to be manipulated, resisted to be triggered, stop watching/listening any kind of propaganda and unite even without lifting a finger, every politician, party, state size corporate around the world would shit themselves right there and then and we would have smelled it from where we sit. LOL
What a dream...pffft

Might want to step it up to actual domestic terrorism.
Honestly, if those are your means, you'll practically need a full fledged civil war.

Actually, this is the second round of THE attempt to change this system which was already started in the past. But it is not a sprint, it's a marathon. You have passed the half mark. It is not just hard protesting either. You need to unite against the right nutters in every part of life from daily life to professional. You could do it actually.
This is not just about politics or elections. All groups against need to meet on a common denominator and stand up for each other. Learn to say NO to every kind of provocation. Boycotts of protests of all kinds.
If people learned to say no to be manipulated, resisted to be triggered, stop watching/listening any kind of propaganda and unite even without lifting a finger, every politician, party, state size corporate around the world would shit themselves right there and then and we would have smelled it from where we sit. LOL
What a dream...pffft
You are such an idealist. And think that the US is special, just like R or D politicians. Who knew?
-
Might want to step it up to actual domestic terrorism.
Honestly, if those are your means, you'll practically need a full fledged civil war.
Dems gotta do what Dems gotta do. How about civil war in Belgium? Sound good? No?
-
That can be extended to all of humanity. IMHO.
Not only when one part describes themselves as the epitome of that humanity and the rest as the other, sweety.
-
That's neither the intention, nor the means but the eventual end if forced for survival.
Not just talking about the States. It's good advice to everyone who thinks they're untouchable about not to get too comfortable with the popcorn and the feeling of fake safety.
After all, you westerners are generally, really, really stupid in the end.
In the end, all individuals fail at survival. Just ask my parents et al. Whether this "quantum meme" of culture continues rolling along is secondary, but is everything to collectivists. That and the "salt boy" wants to control the ocean. From time to time, in spite of people trying to understand it or to prevent it or to start it or control it ... major "solitary waves" happen. And famous people, who didn't create the big wave, but who surf the wave, get to act like they are in charge, not Chaos (oldest Greek god).

Sounds impossible to me. Isn't that a self contradictory sentence?

And you are such a moron but I don't slap it with you. No, I don't think the US is special, I just know it is a concept -like too much people on earth- more than a country and trying to describe you some bits you can't see. I wish you would listen. At least a bit.
-
Not only when one part describes themselves as the epitome of that humanity and the rest as the other, sweety.
Everyone is part of their own master race, population of one. Whether they group into larger groups is guaranteed, because it is survival, just as you say. A game we all lose eventually. Think of the world as "Ship of Fools" all fighting for the non-functional life boats, while much more divided than into crew vs passengers but men vs women & children. Mortality is hard to think about individually, let alone collectively. Tribes rise and fall, but the individuals in every tribe are doomed.

So you don't think we are special as people, but possess a political "secret sauce" that can be implemented by any ethnic group or mix of ethnic groups? Vladimir Putin and Emperor Xi beg to differ.
You think, I think, that America is special, other than I happen to live here? If I were born in Germany, and an adult in Nazi times, I should support the Third Reich ... same with any other country or time.
Yes, there are too many people, but who says? If people are devalued (as I often argue) then population should be reduced, to reduce liability. If people are valued, then more people is an asset. Nauru vs China? Of course, it is hard to understand another, but we try.

Sounds impossible to me. Isn't that a self contradictory sentence?
I admit "trying" is doing the heavy lifting in that sentence.

I could probably trace the underpinnings for a civil war or a world war and understand it.
My point was more of a less-than-salient attempt at a point about the senselessness and indecipherability of reality. I'm not as optimistic as physicists - or what have you - attempting to explain it, or that any oné person can hold all this shit in their head simultaneously. We specialize for a pretty damn good reason.

This is why people make up ideologies. We put together a pet system of meaning, and then force fit events to it. Revisionism isn't just for historians. The meaning of current events is clear, if you are a Marxist or a Capitalist. Centrists on the other hand ...
The US is in the final throws of inevitable change that will result in national communism - if you are a Stalinist
The US and the rest of the world is in the final throws of inevitable change that will result in international communism - if you are a Trot.
The US is a hegemon with many competitors, let free competition happen so that the market can decide - if you are a US capitalist.

The fact That relatively few people who live in 'better conditions' tend to think like that because of those conditions, doesn' t make those in 'worse conditions' smarter. Were the places reversed, I bet the same thoughts would be held by the others. And in fact, group think is prevalent throughout the globe.
Because in general people are stupid, selfish and in no way shape or form 'inherently good' or altruistic. All people. No matter where 'power' resides. Be it west, east, south or north.

We can hope it is only drug crime. But when some political party lines up with the local criminal element, that creates a new problem. Now you have both SJWs and killers working together. Why were the French royals executed? Because they were in conspiracy with foreign powers, to regain power. That was a bad idea. What if in 1788, the French Left wanted the Turks to invade France to help defeat the royalists?

My electoral calculus is pretty straightforward -- the Democrats started off with the simple fact that nearly any of the candidates down to the third tier would be a better president than Trump has been. I'd've been perfectly happy to vote for Sanders, Warren, Harris, Buttigieg -- the only ones that would have given me pause were Gabbard, Williamson and Bloomberg. And I will be perfectly happy to vote for Biden this fall. First choice? No. Better than the alternative? By lightyears. Simply repairing our relationship with the other Western democracies will be worth it.

Mine isn't so much calculus as it is basic math (https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/506549-jill-biden-promises-if-bidens-elected-no-more-betsy-devos). While this primary process didn't go how I wanted (I didn't want petroleum flakes) and was kinda sketchy besides, I can't deny that Biden's a lot better than the alternative and perhaps some good can come out of it (https://thehill.com/policy/energy-environment/506432-sanders-biden-climate-task-force-calls-for-carbon-free-electricity).

Trump flails and fails against Biden (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/difficult-attack-vanilla-trump-s-throwing-everything-biden-nothing-sticks-n1233097)
President Donald Trump and his campaign have spent months deploying a series of attacks depicting Joe Biden as weak, unfit and a tool of leftists.
But as Biden rises in the polls, it's becoming increasingly clear that the attacks aren't sticking. So Trump's mission to define Biden to voters has proven difficult.
I've seen some of the negative ads and so far it's just basic brain-dead republican talking points. "Radical leftist who will increase taxes and create burdensome regulations!" It tellingly omits exactly which policies are radical (policies that are watered-down versions of stuff our European allies accomplished decades ago) and who considers them to be radical, who these taxes will mainly apply to (it's fun to watch people who make 20k a year be outraged by the existence of estate taxes and capital gains taxes), and what problems these regulations are designed to address.
My favorite anti-Biden smear so far is that he's some super far-left commie. Oh man, those are real gut-busters.
Trump really went all in on statues, which is weird considering most Americans' concerns are far more mundane. Simple stuff like not dying because some idiot can't cover his face, not getting evicted, getting back into the workforce without becoming a casualty of it, and access to affordable healthcare. Problems that Trump and his buddies have never experienced in their entire silver-spoon lives.
It's the economy, stupid!

I usually didn't vote by party when I was still voting. I voted for the individual, with a nod to the party being part of the whole package. I have voted for the lesser of two evils, but I disavow that now, why I voted Gary Johnson in 2016 (my daughter did too). Please one and all, consider politics to be a particularly vile spectator sport. Unless you are in office, taking bribes and making false promises, you aren't really playing. Bear baiting and cock fighting are more civilized.
Our system is the worst of the Romans combined with the worst of the Greeks. The Greek part being a contradiction ... Plato's Republic (aka Guardians, hence the name of the vile Left newspaper) combined with the democracy he totally opposed.

Oh this outcome is going to be difficult. if the margin of victory is less than the number of potentially contested votes both sides will not only claim the other side cheated they will also claim foreign influence. Biden will say Trump is backed by the Russians and Trump will say Biden is backed by the Chinese.
By the way, how many elections did the US interfere with around the world?

Yes, White cops make you take drugs. Just ask George Floyd.
Yes the mayor of Portland is in charge of the WH ... sure, wait until you get over your DTs, druggie.
Again, N Ireland is the model. Sinn Féin = DNC, IRA = AntiFa.
My daughter and I agree that the Feds should have uniforms, so you can tell who you are dealing with. Marked cars also. But the uniform should be Judge Dredd style. And armed with flame throwers. That way they can go to registered Dem voter homes, and eliminate the commie and Covid infections at once (sarc)

A huge chunk of people from the left are still planning on writing in Bernie or whoever, and making it known getting rid of Trump will not be the end all be it. But a lot of them have drunk the Biden Kool-Aid. This man will not last a year in office.
What is this based on? Gut feelings? Cause I'm looking at fairly recent polls that have about 87% of Bernie voters voting for Biden (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/08/upshot/democrats-united-poll-election.html) at the end of the day. I mean, FFS it would take a pretty bizarre Bernie supporter to prefer Bernie completely out of the picture over the Bernie-Biden taskforce.
-
And before I forget, some polls have Biden leading by 15 points (https://www.politico.com/news/2020/07/19/biden-trump-polls-matchup-369261), much more than Clinton. I was getting some 2016 deja vu B.C. (before coronavirus) but this crisis has changed all that. Trump's favorability has gone into the toilet, and while he will still capture 40-44ish percent of the votes (gotta love the poorly educated), that's not enough to win.
Trump's strength is 2016 is that he was a political unknown with a populist message and people were fed up with the status quo. In 2020, Trump is very much defined - and in extremely unflattering terms - that populist message is nowhere to be found, and Trumpism is basically associated with injecting bleach, spouting alternative facts, and cheering for police brutality and secret police. It's not a good look.

Interesting news item today -- Ohio's former governor, Republican John Kasich, is expected to speak in support of the convention nominee this fall. At the Democratic convention (https://www.marketwatch.com/story/ohio-republican-kasich-expected-to-back-biden-at-democratic-convention-2020-07-20).
Kasich is still popular here in Ohio -- hell, I disagree with him up and down the line, but even I have some respect for him. If he makes it okay for conservative-leaning Independents and non-sociopathic Republicans to vote Democratic, that's very nearly game over. It certainly should have an effect here in Ohio, which is juuuuuust starting to tilt bluewards anyway.

It'd be nice for the Republicans as well. They don't have to go down with the ship and won't be marginalized as Trump loyalists certainly will be. And truth be told, the Democrats' right-wing isn't all that far from the Republicans' left-wing, if they can make it over there. From there, they can just portray themselves as centrists and cast Trump as an extremist, rogue element who took over their party and steered it away from its core values. I dunno if I'd be very convinced by that, but I'm not the one they'd be trying to convince.

I disagree with one thing here: Trump is not a rogue element, he's a distillation of what the main Republican party has become over the last 40 years: intolerant, racist, misogynistic, plutocratic, dishonest (even by politicians' standards), irresponsible and hypocritical. The real tragedy is that it's taken this long for a minority of well-placed Republicans to even notice there's a problem in their ranks. I mean, yes, glad that it's happening, but they've let the party go so far beyond the edge, I question whether it can be brought back without an actual schism breaking it into two parties.

Biden gets big donor help (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/16/us/politics/joe-biden-fund-raising.html)
Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. raised tens of millions of dollars in the last three months from major donors who gave more than $100,000, relying on some of the Democratic Party’s deepest pockets to sharply shrink President Trump’s financial advantage, according to new federal filings.
Mr. Biden’s biggest benefactors in the second quarter of 2020, when he became the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, represent a who’s who of billionaires and influencers in Silicon Valley, Hollywood, Wall Street and beyond.
Good? I suppose so. Politics is very much a fundraising game, after all. Though I do wonder what exactly these kind-hearted benefactors expect in return.

50% of White Americans Would Vote for Trump If Election Were Held Today (https://www.newsweek.com/50-white-americans-would-vote-trump-if-election-were-held-today-1523164)
Overall, the poll found that 43 percent of voters would choose Biden in a present-day matchup whereas 40 would choose Trump. In a mid-July poll by Hill-HarrisX, Biden had a 7-point national lead over Trump.
Although the poll showed Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden beating Donald Trump in an immediate matchup among almost every other demographic, Trump led Biden amongst male voters 45 to 43 percent, Midwest voters 42 to 39 percent, Independent voters 35 to 33 percent, voters earning above $75,000 a year by 48 to 39 percent and voters aged 35 to 49 by a margin of 44 to 37 percent.
I understand why people vote against Democrats but I still don't understand why they believe Trump is the best person to lead the country or the Republican party. Imagine Trump was CEO of the company where you work and he's tweeting about celebrities and only looking at fiscal numbers that make him happy. Trump didn't "grow into the role" of president like many Republicans hoped. I know many people are worried about "the radical Left" but imagine what a really smart conservative could do in office. Trump is in some ways a blessing to Democrats because he's so incompetent. I can only assume Republicans are sticking with Trump due to the sunk cost fallacy.
And to those who say "but what about Biden?" I'm not talking about who the Democrats choose but who the Republicans choose to lead their party.

In non-Trump news (it exists, or so I'm told), Biden picks Kamala Harris as his running mate. (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/joe-biden-selects-kamala-harris-his-running-mate-n1235771)
It makes sense that Biden would pick a 2020 primary candidate, and Harris ran a strong campaign, winning states like...
...
umm...
...you know what, nevermind. The point is she was there, and I guess that's something.
Her positions (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_positions_of_Kamala_Harris) are generally pretty decent imo. Hopefully, she gets more mileage out of that in the general than in the primary.

Yeah 'Pocahontas', as Trump calls her (for the dims) did better in the primaries. She would energize the Bernie supporters more perhaps. There is something seemingly 'executive' and sharp about Harris. I think 'seeming presidential' on TV is still a big deal and she has that.
-

That all depends on where she sits that day on universal healthcare. Bernie supporters really liked Warren at the beginning, but her reputation as a firebrand slowly turned to one of machiavellian opportunism (with little payoff, I might add). I'd rather have Harris at this point, imo.

Harris is the sensible choice. In the position Biden is in right now, 'sensible' is the best thing to do. Being from California doesn't really help in a close state, but it gives him a good chance to energize the Black vote. Whether it reaches the levels Obama got, hard to predict, but it could be enough to solidify North Carolina and tick Georgia over into the D column.
Also, being the 'safe' pick demonstrates stability, especially in comparison to the Orange Chaos Beast. 'Safe' and 'stable' probably sound really good not just to the independent voters, but to wobbly Republicans who are sick of the nightmare carousel that's been the last four years. It's going to be nearly impossible to hang the 'looney left' label on the Biden/Harris ticket.
I would have rather seen him tap, say, either of the two Black congresswomen from Ohio -- Marcia Fudge or Joyce Beatty -- in order to give the Buckeye State a shove in the blue direction, but neither of them have the national name recognition Harris does. So, fair enough.
Also, I'm looking forward to her shredding Ayatollah Pence in their debate.

I read somewhere that Biden's support among the "black vote" is all the way down to 75% (typically 90% for Democrats) while Trump's is up to 15% (typically 5% for Republicans).

Dems own Black voters like they used to own Black people ... for now. Everyone is neglecting how many voters will sit this one out (I am, permanently). I can't say I am pleased with Trump, would only give him a "C" ... but he was an political unknown in 2016. Biden is a crypto-racist, and Harris is a non-American Black, ancestry from Jamaica, as Obama's was from Kenya. The Dems have a hard time running a genuine African-American with an arrest record ;-)

I think Palin was forced on a senile McCain. Otherwise there are traditional calculi. Kennedy picked Johnson to cover his Southern flank ... and that helped Johnson et al to be positioned to benefit from the assassination. Often times Presidents pick a VP for lack of anything to recommend them (Mr Potatoe-head). Kamala Harris is well positioned to "manage" Biden or replace him, per the Swamp.
"Far-Left Democrat Rep. Pramila Jayapal Brags About Manipulating Joe Biden" ... a pre-election psyop for the Bernie Bros.

"GROSS, SLEAZY OPPORTUNIST KAMALA HARRIS ONCE SAID SHE BELIEVED BIDENS' ACCUSERS" ... back in April 2019, before the #BelieveHer accusation was made, that ended #BelieveHer.

I read somewhere that Biden's support among the "black vote" is all the way down to 75% (typically 90% for Democrats) while Trump's is up to 15% (typically 5% for Republicans).
Gluteus maximus extraction? Drinking the bleach-flavored koolaid? Hmm..
According to a poll at the end of June, Trump's at 7% (https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2020/06/30/publics-mood-turns-grim-trump-trails-biden-on-most-personal-traits-major-issues/). And just last month, his press secretary bragged about 8% (https://www.businessinsider.com/white-house-press-secretary-brags-that-trump-won-8-of-the-black-vote-2020-6). Though, that could be a false flag, he might've worked with Romney at some point. :P
I've gotta say, I didn't know that 5% is typical for Republicans. I guess that makes sense. They say black lives matter and Republicans say that racism doesn't exist and that BLM is racist. Can't blame them for not wanting to throw in with that ball o' crazy.
But you know, something about that 5% figure sounds familiar...
"And a recent poll came out where I had 25 percent African-American. And the Republicans usually get about 4 percent or 5 percent. And one of the hosts said, if he ever gets 25 percent, this election’s over. You might as well not run it." - Trump, from an 2/21/16 interview with Jake Tapper (https://cnnpressroom.blogs.cnn.com/2016/02/21/trump-on-the-party-nominees-i-think-its-going-to-be-between-hillary-and-myself-they-say-that-it-will-be-the-largest-voter-turnout-in-the-history-of-united-states-elections/)
Just fyi, it's not normally 5%. It's more like 10% plus or minus 5 points (https://www.factcheck.org/2016/02/trump-and-the-black-vote/), depending on how Republicans present themselves and how much dog whistling they're willing to do to win. Black support for Republicans used to be a lot higher before that whole Southern Strategy thing. I wonder why.
I know some Democratic pollsters are sweating over that.
They're sweating so hard they're trying to put the kibosh on mail-in voting during a pandemic?

Senator Harris is also Indian (Asian) in descent. She trashed Biden in debate. Tulsi trashed Kamala in debate, and she is also of Indian (Asian) descent.
Choosing Senator Harris as VP, would have increased (slightly) my likelihood of voting for Biden, if I were voting and still a Democrat. Tulsi would have even increased that further. Oprah or Michelle Obama would have decreased it.
Meanwhile, why is poorly implemented mail in voting (NM in the last election .. my daughter informed me. was competent) being pushed so hard? In a circumstance of 10s of thousands of fake driver's licenses? The California system in particular is rampant with questionable practices, more people voting than registered there. Basically mail in votes should only be for registered voters, only if they register months before an election, so their fake credentials can be verified. The actual voter registration is in person, not on-line or by mall. Registered voters request a ballot on-line (to verity which ballot they get), get it in the mail, mail it back after filling it out. The trick is having legitimate registered voters. Waiting a few extra days to have a mail in vote tabulated isn't that bad, India has to do this all the time, because its India, the world's largest democracy.
Kamala is a member of the "Boule" Black secret society modeled after the "Skull & Bones" the Bush family is part of. Pure Deep State. Her most prominent ancestor was the biggest slave owner in Jamaica. She is slightly more African than Elizabeth Warren is Native American.

"During an interview on Fox Business yesterday, Trump said that if USPS doesn't get the $25 billion earmarked in the Democratic stimulus plan, then it won't have the money to handle mail-in ballots." ... doesn't say that the USPS will never get it, but this is putting pressure on the Dems since time is short. Could just be another snafu for a country unprepared for pandemics.
"USPS Mail-Sorting Machines Are Mysteriously Being Deactivated Ahead Of Election" ... new US Postmaster (Franklin was the original traitor here) is a Republican fund raiser. This is very odd timing indeed ;-(
"New Jersey To Become 9th State To Adopt "Universal Mail-In Voting"" ... as I pointed out earlier vs NM ... this can be done with integrity. The integrity of who is a registered voter is key. If the intent of the DNC is to have illegally registered or unregistered voters do mail in voting since they won't be vetted in person, then this is an attempt to steal the election, and I support any President in preventing this treason. If this is not being done with criminal intent, then I have no problem with mail-in voting, and would want the USPS geared up to properly support it. The integrity of the system is more important than who gets elected.
""Democrats Are Holding This Up!" - Trump Rages After Ordering Mnuchin To Send $3,400 To US Families" ... both parties are blocking. $3400 would be direct deposit to family of four, not mailed check?

"NEWSWEEK ARTICLE ARGUES KAMALA HARRIS IS NOT A CITIZEN, DEMOCRATS OUTRAGED" ... funny coming from an MSM rag. Her parents were here on temporary VISA and had her here in the US. Not the same as Obama (born in Hawaii territory) or McCain (born in Panama Canal Zone). My limited understanding is if you are not flying over the US, but on the ground, not even in a hospital situation (say back of a cab) ... and born here, then you are a US citizen (though you might have more than one citizenship depending on who your parents are (where they are from).

Hunter Biden claimed "poverty" paying off his large back-tax bill. His poverty included a $12,000 per month apartment and a $130,000 car ;-) He has to work hard to keep up with Chelsea Clinton.

"They are telling voters to dump Trump and restore them to power or they will tear down the United States and burn down your homes..." .. people respond well to honest political messaging ... "37% plurality of independents do not think either would be a good candidate" ... if I were voting, I would be in this last group, 1/10 of voters who think "good cop/bad cop" is a shit show.

There is an election conspiracy, every two years, and both parties are involved ;-))
The USPS has been a shithole since 1970 (National Guard used to process mail during postal strike). It has always lost money every year, because ordinary mail pays for junk mail, and bought politicians won't fix this. This is why FedEx and UPS exist. But this 50 year old problem isn't because of Trump.
"don't underestimate how badly Biden can screw things up" - Barak Obama aka says Biden is unfit for office ... earlier Obama told Biden "you don't have to do this".

I just watched Hannity smear Biden as a puppet of the "far left" and particularly Bernie Sanders and I've gotta tell you guys, this right-wing fearmongering makes Biden look sooo much cooler than he is in reality.
And one of the things they say is that socialism/communism (exact quote: "whatever you wanna call it") is an utter failure in every country that's tried it, leading to nothing but misery.
Convenient terminology failure aside, let's take it as a given that marxism doesn't work - that command economies inevitably crash and burn. Believe it or not, I'm pretty partial to that position. No one wants to emulate Stalinist Russia (except Putin) or the Khmer Rouge or China's brand of authoritarianism (except Trump).
What lefties like me are doing is looking at Germany and the Netherlands and especially Nordic countries like Denmark and we're not seeing failure and misery - we see a lot of policies that work, and work much better than what we have here. And we'd like to learn from them and see if we can't at least partially implement stuff that we know works over here. So no, we're not following in the footsteps of failure, we're genuinely impressed with their success and want our people to enjoy that kind of success as well. That's our "radical" and "unAmerican" stance. Isn't wanting America to be better patriotic, not unpatriotic?
And needless to say, a lot of mainstream Dems aren't on board with even that. I mean, the last president wasn't even on board with gay marriage at first and had to be talked into it (the policy, I mean, not the...nevermind). What little reform we actually get is basically just a band-aid on a grievous 2-foot long gash, imho.
The point is that in the US two-party system, it's center-left (with an emphasis on center) against far right. That's the way it's been for decades and continues to be and any attempt at changing that paradigm just gets crushed to pieces right in front of our eyes. Us moderately-left are pretty much a people without a homeland.
So these right-wing scaremongers saying that Biden is some radical lefty out to radically transform the US are painting a comically unrealistic picture. They might as well say that covid is a Dem hoax and that global warming is a chinese hoax. Just as many people will believe that as the other two.

Ideology and partisanship are just tools. Shadowgate on the Shadownet operation ... is releasing whistleblower info which the current grand jury investigation under Barr must have been working with. It damages the ability of the DoJ to try people, but also prevents the DoJ from running a fake investigation into a bi-partisan corruption, to troll conservatives wanting scalps. The Deep State isn't partisan, it is for itself, not for America or any party.
n 2016 they were running operations against both Hillary and Trump, so that no matter what happens, the WH is under Deep State control. Of course the current election is totally fake too. The trick of magicians is to distract your attention from one hand, while the other hand is doing a trick. I won't mention names here, but the code name for the real leader is "Voldemort" (and he probably works for someone else), bwahaha. Under Intel dictatorship since 1963.
Nothing wrong with idolizing Germanic countries. I am 1/2 Germanic myself. But China is the prototype of the 21st century totalitarian state, not Germany.

I love how conservatives complain about "marxist this" and "communist that" "liberal fascist this"

I had no idea. How come his progressive bona fides (and policy positions in general) aren't front and center? He has a good track record on combating global warming and apparently helped make the clutch play in making gay marriage legal in this country. Yet, when it comes to how he's portrayed in the media and by the public at large, it's seldom anything more substantial than "he's more presidential" and "not trump".

And I've gotta say, the global warming issue is way more important than a lot of people think it is. It should be a make-or-break issue because it's a life-or-death issue. Anyone who says this isn't a big deal is a crazy person and should be shown the door asap, not put in charge.

Believe it or not, the Dem convention, so far, has changed my mind about Biden. I was in the 'He's not trump' camp prior to now. I now think he would make a good leader, and his character and personality are just what we need--and the average person can relate. Plus I think he knows how to relegate tasks and power (a very important often overlooked aspect of leadership).

I'm convinced that this is the kind of thing that won Biden the nomination. He says nice things but they don't translate into any meaningful outcome. So voters say, "Biden is a better guy the Trump because he will do what's right," which is not an expectation of a meaningful outcome. I want more than that. What does a president say he's going to do? Does he do it? And is it what I want him to do? I don't find philosophical bullshit inspiring. The proof is in the nuts and bolts.
I want universal healthcare. Not some half ass crap that keeps the insurance salesman's foot in my door and my elected officials in his pocket. I want equal justice, not a police force with a knee jerk response to shoot black people. I don't want to pay taxes that are used by politicians to square accounts with their corporate donors.
And will someone please tell me who fucked up my mail? My Netflix dvd delivery is now 5 days later than Netflix tells me it will be here, and my medications from Canada are now weeks later than they were.

Politicians are not incentived to solve problems, the are incentivezed to win elections. When a politician gives specifics on complicated policies, he or she is inviting attacks by their adversaries.
I've daydreamed of a new system of democratic government that solves this incentive problem. Citizens would rank choice issues they want addressed, such as affordable healthcare, reducing unemployment, etc. A panel of experts for each issue would then set acheiveable, measurable goals. Different political parties would then list all their cabinet members and post a written proposal how they would meet those goals in a four-year term. Then voters would choose which team to install in office. If the poltical party doesn't meet all the goals by the end of term every member of the team is ineligible for re-election, they are all replaced. There would be no biparitsanship.
And will someone please tell me who fucked up my mail? My Netflix dvd delivery is now 5 days later than Netflix tells me it will be here, and my medications from Canada are now weeks later than they were.
I'm having the same experience.
-
Citizens would rank choice issues they want addressed, such as affordable healthcare, reducing unemployment, etc.
That would be ideal if extended to local government as well. Also need some sort of method to derive the list of issues that will be ranked.

I haven't thought a lot about this as I have never even considered it before, although intuitively, I think this could be worked out, or some concept that is closely related to the idea. The problem with "intuitively believing this would work" is that intuition is not a great way to arrive at conclusions.

I'm hoping the debates go forward. I've heard that Biden says he will fact check Trump during the debates. That raises two points that I find interesting.
1. The idea that Trump would use facts.
2. The idea that Biden could fact-check anyone.

I thought this was hilarious, but aside from the humor, I don't think facts are that important to most voters. Some for sure, but for most not. I would arrange the following qualities in order of their importance to most voters.
Party affiliation
Stage presence
Looks
Gender
Skin color
Integrity
Intelligence
Grasp of facts
The exact placements may be up for debate, except for party affiliation being the most important factor in winning the debate, while integrity, grasp of facts, and intelligence would probably be close to the bottom. There may be factors I left out that could be somewhere in the middle.

Both are professional liars, one from the commercial sector, one from the political sector. Facts are weapons, so are lies. Both will be used. Fact checking organizations are infiltrated by political operatives, just as Wikipedia article of H W Bush is.
IMHO, I don't want the debates to go forward ... because Biden is a case of elder abuse, and Harris is a case of ironic Black cultural appropriation. Pence might be the only adult in the room. The moderator in any case is a Deep State Journalist who will do what the CIA tells him to.
If I voted again, again I would vote third party, even though the Libertarian candidate this time is more cringeworthy than the one last time (who I voted for). The libertarians reverted to form, as they were in 1976, when I got to meet their VP candidate in person at a small meeting at college. Basically make everything legal, including rioting.

Although a lot of people are saying that if the election isn't settled we will get an interim president Pelosi, they are actually wrong. There is a constitution remedy in the 2nd Article and the 12th Amendment.
In the event that the elector college fails to pick, the decision gets sent to the House of Representatives. However, in spite of the Democratic majority, that won't result in a Democratic victory.
27 state delegations have a Republican majority. 21 states delegations have a Democratic majority. 1 state is evenly tied, and one state is 7D, 6R, and 1L.

I am so scared about this election I was just about to order mine until I read this Amazon review..
Do not purchase. Very poorly assembled. Hair was thin and spotty. One eyebrow had very little hair while the other was fine. Certificate contained typographical errors and referred to product as "Trampy Bear" in one instance. Airbagged packaged in an envelope, but finally fluffed out ok. Absolutely would not recommend this purchase!

If the election goes to the next Congress, and if Democrats can flip the Senate (just possible), you could have the bizarre circumstance of the House choosing the Oval Orifice and the Senate choosing Kamala Harris. The 12th Amendment is silent on what happens if the Senate is evenly divided -- it does not say that the current VP casts a tiebreaker, although I imagine Pence would try to. And then we get the Supreme Court involved, and I have no idea how they would decide that one.

Since WW II, the MIC isn't interested in peace or winning, it is all about war profiteering. WW II got the US out of the Great Depression, not the New Deal. I am one of the beneficiaries, not that I favor combat, I cared for the young people I worked with. I would have had to do something else for a living (and planned to) if it wasn't for the Cold War and War on Terror. So "Que Bono". The Taliban ended the opium trade. The CIA runs the world drug trade (since Vietnam at least, Golden Triangle).
This is how the spooks money launder ... and regular criminals too. The US invasion of Afghanistan reestablished the opium trade, so that it could go into Russia to addict the Russian people. See British Empire 1840s Opium Wars with China. OSS/CIA worked with the Jewish and Italian Mafia in WW II, with German war criminals after WW II. JFK was son of Irish-American Mafia, who worked with the Italian-American Mafia.
It isn't clear just how connected the Saudi Royals are to 9/11, and who all were involved. Just saying. Before 9/11, George W was putting a stick in China's eye (2001 spy plane incident). Never let a crisis go to waste seems bipartisan to me. The larger point is, modern nation states cannot prosper without ever greater government expenditure, and MIC is a convenient way to do this (war is very expensive). There is no final victory anytime in history. Just study the endless wars with Persia (still happening now). Not saying that Osama Bin Ladin or Saddam Hussein are saints.
What does Trump have to do with any of this? He wants to moderate the warmongering. Seems good to me. That prior image seems anti-gay to me. Why shouldn't Putin and Trump get it on, are you a bigot? ;-)

And then we get the Supreme Court involved, and I have no idea how they would decide that one.
True, but how much do you expect the congress to flip? I'm not talking about Congress as a whole, which is already Democratic, but individual state delegations.
As it stands now, 27 state delegations are Republican and 21 are Democratic. One is evenly tied, and one is split 3 ways but is 50% Democratic. If the vote were taken right now it would be a Republican victory, but that is not all there is.
If there are contested House races, it falls within the power of the House to vote on which person to seat. The obvious contender are the states where the delegation is already 50%, MI and PA. Then CO and FL both have an odd number of Representatives AND are 50%+1 Republican, meaning that one seat switched would lead to them being 50%+1 Democrat.
That does only bring the count to 25 to 25, evenly tied. It requires four contested races being decided in the House, so it isn't enough to get 26. So that leaves some states with a bigger margin to overcome.
There are 5 states that have only one Representative: AK, MT, ND, SD, WY. Unfortunately they are all very solidly red states, a contested race there would be quite obviously a setup. Then there are states where you need two seats to switch: ID, KS, MS, NE, SC, UT, WV, and WI. Again they are all Red states, having two seats up for grabs that way in any one of them also is a little hard to envision.
Still, that leaves 13 options, so maybe one of them could be worked to give the Democrats a 26-24 advantage in the House.

MAGA Visibility Is Making Democrats Nervous (https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/09/maga-visibility-is-making-democrats-nervous.html)
... But this year the COVID-19 pandemic has understandably led Biden-Harris strategists to rely on more remote mobilization techniques, at least so far. And the contrast with the extremely visible advocates of MAGA, who are far less inhibited by public health guidance, is making some Democrats nervous, as TIME’s Charlotte Alter discovered in Michigan:
This year, 83-year old former Chrysler employee [Don Sabbe] says he’ll definitely vote for Joe Biden, but he’s getting concerned about Biden’s campaign here in Michigan.
“I can’t even find a sign,” Sabbe says outside a Kroger’s in Sterling Heights, where surrounding cars fly massive Donald Trump flags that say “No More Bullsh-t” and fellow shoppers wear Trump T-shirts for their weekend grocery runs. “I’m looking for one of those storefronts. I’m looking for a campaign office for Biden. And I’m not finding one.”
The reason Sabbe can’t find a dedicated Biden campaign field office is because there aren’t any around here. Not in Macomb County, the swing region where Sabbe lives. It’s not even clear Biden has opened any new dedicated field offices in the state; because of the pandemic, they’ve moved their field organizing effort online. ...

Power rules. Money is a form of power. Yes, a primary fact is that the DNC wants to fail, either to not get elected, or to do the wrong things. I have always seen that in the RNC. Don't worry about the peasants! We simply aren't that important to the millionaires other than as a nuisance. Yes, candidates still get elected, but that is in spite of their crappy campaigns and their crappy party leaderships.

I have not seen many Trump signs around here, even where I remember seeing them four years ago. They're definitely fewer and further between.
On one street, I was treated to the spectacularly willfully blind "TRUMP 2020 NO MORE BULLSHIT" sign on one side of the street... and directly across was a yard sign simply saying "FUCK TRUMP".
I think I'll definitely call this the weirdest Presidential campaign I've ever seen.

Biden nears 50% in polls - both nationally and in key battleground states (https://www.politico.com/news/2020/09/18/joe-biden-polls-electoral-college-417880)
According to the latest RealClearPolitics average, Biden is sitting at 49.3 percent in national surveys and has a 6.2 percentage point lead over President Donald Trump. That’s significantly higher than Clinton’s 44.9 percent mark this time four years ago, which was good for only a 1 point lead.
6 point lead compared to Clinton's 1 point lead this time 4 years (Is "years" correct? Cause they feel like decades) ago.
It’s the same story in many of the battleground states: Biden is at or within 2 points of majority support in enough states to lock down an Electoral College victory, compared with Clinton’s low- to mid-40s scores in mid-September 2016 in the same states, some of which she would end up losing as late-deciding voters went decisively for Trump.
Don't uncork the champagne though. Get out and vote like it's your last opportunity to vote. Cause it might be.

Also, Biden polls better than Trump with Independents (https://www.npr.org/2020/09/18/914103948/poll-biden-maintains-lead-over-trump): 57% to Trump's paltry 36%
That's a substantial improvement over Clinton, who only got 42% of Independents.
A worrying thing about these polls is that whites are apparently evenly split between Biden and Trump. But apparently, it's fairly common for whites to be torn between R and D candidates - in every presidential election including and since 1972, whites have leaned R - the only times it's been even close have been with Jimmy Carter and both of Bill Clinton's presidential races. The Republicans' Southern Strategy of inflaming and then exploiting racial hatreds for personal gain has largely been successful, though Ol' Reliable seems to be over-milked as of late.

Oddly, since I moved to a remote part of Virginia, I have lived in a sea of Republican signs. Many people here have left their Trump signs up since 2016, only updating the year of the election. In a 50 mile radius from my house, I have never seen one sign supporting a Democrat.. Until this year. There are two Biden signs within 10 miles of my house that showed up in the last month. I was stunned.

Trump won't nuke. He is much less consistent on the military than a career politician, since he came up by a different route. His personal focus starts and ends with the economy, and other stuff is to please his base.
He even called out the leadership of the military. As a vet I can say the grunts don't much like the leadership.

Is that code for "horribly unqualified, erratic, and basically impossible to consult, therefore his policy positions are all over the place"?
His personal focus starts and ends with the economy
The economy is certainly his favorite talking point (though less so today, for some reason). Basically, if the stock market is high, he tells his cultists that he did it and they believe him.
He even called out the leadership of the military
He got into infantile spats with people who have vastly more knowledge and expertise them him. He may have occasionally come to a reasonable conclusion (exhibit A: Bolton) but the process by which he arrived there is a goddamn trainwreck.
As a vet I can say the grunts don't much like the leadership.
Evidentially. Trump lags behind Biden even in the military (https://www.militarytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2020/08/31/as-trumps-popularity-slips-in-latest-military-times-poll-more-troops-say-theyll-vote-for-biden/), which is quite a feat considering that Biden is allegedly some super-left commie.

Obama was like Gandhi! Michelle loves George W! Psychosis yet?
The leadership murdered thousands of grunts in Korea and Vietnam (but the grunts were draftees). Volunteer military is professional, they won't take that kind of crap from the leadership again.

I don't have any illusions about changing the minds of Trump supporters just as I can't imagine my own opinion of Trump changing. I would ask them the classic election question "Are you better off now than you were four years ago?"
Republicans have been in charge so if you like how things are in 2020 then keep the same politicians in office.
-
Most of Trump's supporters do feel better off than 4 years ago. Pushing the oppressed to the point of rebellion is a warm fuzzy, proving that the oppressed are unworthy. And if I were a religious fanatic, I would be enthralled with a right wing Supreme Court, no matter how unconventionally they were appointed. That the 1% should get more of the tax base for themselves would be a non issue. The biggest improvement for Trump supporters is that they now have a voice, and they love the idea of an outspoken lunatic unleashing so many of their own crazy thoughts without concern over the blow back. This is the freedom they have sought. America is finally great again.

This is where I have to recognize I have a skewed perspective because it seems to me that many people regardless of political affiliation are frustrated, fearful and worried about the future. Polls have shown a large increase in Americans reporting anxiety, depression and increased substance use. I doubt Trump supporters are happy, I suspect they just don't blame Trump for perceived problems.
-
I think there was a sizable block of thoughtless voters who "just wanted to see what would happen".
lol I have to admit, I was interested in seeing what would happen, not enough to actually vote for the guy, but I did start off with an intense curiosity. "Let's see how the Hell this is going to work out." Now if I were a Democrat, rather than a Liberal, I would have been doing a lot of hand wringing and had a bigger stake in the whole thing (probably), but as it was, I was curious. So I can see that some people may have said something like, "Well, we are getting nowhere with a Democratic leadership, I think I'll vote Republican." Although, I don't know how many people would act on that. Apparently there were a lot, especially in those states that turned red from blue, there had to be some serious dissatisfaction with the Democratic leadership. I don't know how many switched parties, or how many just stayed home. In fact, I believe this attitude has been growing among Liberals for a long time, and as much as Trump displeases those people now, I think that attitude still exists.

If Republicans aren't happy right now, I'm at a loss to explain why. In the last four years, the Republican Party has delivered to its constituents far more than it ever has. They have changed the direction of the nation dramatically in ways matter to the average Republican. What's not for them to be happy about? Yes, Republicans failed at repealing Obamacare and probably a few other promises, but over all they have made tremendous strides during the Trump administration. They did their job and got it done as far as I can tell. Much of this is not the work of Trump, but he does act as a relief valve for right wing frustrations. He speaks to his supporters hearts, toxic and vulgar as he does, but in ways they seem to approve and understand.
But I think you are right that people are more frustrated, anxious, and depressed that ever before. Probably more so than during the Great Depression. America is in a slide. Our global supremacy is in decline. We are more vulnerable, both in national security and economically. And worst of all we hate each other. But I suppose this is normal when people get frustrated.

My company offered to fund engineers to pursue an MBA degree. The class that affected me the most was marketing. The science of manipulation. The art of the 'spin'. The 'pull'. The 'push'. The tugging on emotion. The marketer, the politician, the salesman, the lobbyist, the priest, the magician, the extremist. All the same.
Anyone who exists way out on the wings has been manipulated. Facts are simply not out there by definition. However, statistics predict that they will happen to represent the truth on rare occasions. But that does not matter because it is buried their noise.

I don't have any illusions about changing the minds of Trump supporters just as I can't imagine my own opinion of Trump changing. I would ask them the classic election question "Are you better off now than you were four years ago?"
Republicans have been in charge so if you like how things are in 2020 then keep the same politicians in office.
My ex and daughter are liberals, have full TDS from the start. My ex is so crazy, and being half Italian, she would rather move to Italy and claim dual citizenship and support La Cosa Nostra than be an American except under the most liberal possible government. Psychopathy, mania and paranoia. They are most dear to me, but they must do what they must do. This is the only degree by which the election touches me, otherwise I don't give a flip what happens to the US or the World. Burn it all down, or don't.

I voted for Gary Johnson, so did my daughter. I have never been a Republican, neither has she. Every time you vote, unless you know the candidate personally, you are making a shot in the dark, like Breonna Taylor's gangster boyfriend.

That sounds familiar. But in a different way. Here, the religious government has been upset for some time because they KNOW they can't administrate. The country has changed so dramatically in the last 17 years, they can't believe themselves. They have been aware of it before the economical collapse few years ago. and they know they can't do anything either.
Would it be too much to say that as the republican brain team is not actually stupid, they perfectly know they can't really administrate the country?
The Funny thing is 15 years ago this wouldn't happen. Hell, 10 years ago it wouldn't happen. This angle wouldn't be there. I mean a political wing; a camp, wouldn't think this way, wouldn't care what is going to happen as long as they win, but then it would be obscure anyway. Not that anyone would put their minds into the future that way. LOL
E: That's a good hint about how radicalised the world got in short time. Also pandemic probably played a role too. And considering it is not going anywhere for a few years yet. Ooof I want to move to another planet.

Just watched the first debate. That was really...uhh...something.
For starters, Trump has a YUGE interruption problem. Talked over Biden. Talked over the moderator. Couldn't behave himself at the table like an adult. About halfway through, he was able to control himself somewhat again.
Second, I disliked how Biden allowed himself to get roped into talking about irrelevant stuff like Hunter or whatever bizarre lie Trump came up with (like the mysterious unnamed European country with fire-preventing raking - perhaps on the forest-moon of Endor). You absolutely can't allow Trump to control the conversation, diverting it as it suits him. Biden pulled his punches a lot and treated Trump as if he were a colleague and not a fraud. He laughed off Trump and said that Trump has no idea what he's doing, which is fine I guess. Clown and worst president we've ever had are much more accurate and well-earned labels, but those zingers were few and far between. Trump also challenged Biden to say that he supports "law and order" - virtue words disguising a disgusting policy of violent protest-busting and secret police going on a campaign of brutality and abduction on citizens in direct defiance of the law. I would have said as much. Alas, Biden did not. Bad tactics.
Biden did noticeably stumble on his words sometimes, though not any worse than the way most people do. He didn't come across as losing his faculties, though a barrage of childish interruption got him to skip from 2 to 3 on a numbered list, which I'm sure you'll find on some whackjob site or new attack ad. Biden at least came across as a reasonably intelligent and capable person with very moderate, workable solutions. So that's good.
The first thing Trump attacked Biden on was say that Biden would "take away private insurance" with a public option. He later apparently confused Biden's plan with Bernie's green new deal. Such flattery! I fervently wish it were so!
Biden came across a lot better on the pandemic and climate change. I'm in full agreement with him there. Trump said a lot of BS - essentially blaming China rather than taking any personal responsibility, assuming that Biden would have been worse and then claiming it's a certainty, and essentially giving himself laurels on behalf of his suspiciously unnamed adoring fans in the government. He even blatantly lied and said that the public is generally supportive of his covid response, which is absolutely not true. I will give him credit for saying exactly one true thing - these lockdowns have been very hard on people psychologically. Though obviously, we wouldn't have to endure this hardship for this long if this crisis had been dealt with by capable leadership. Plague rats and plague rat policy laid America low. And the North remembers.
Trump's talk about ballots was very disturbing. His default assumption that this election is illegitimate - even going as far to say that he'd make the Supreme Court "look in" on the election. Ominous. Darth Sidious vibes.
I am convinced that this guy is at war with American democracy. Republican, Democrat, Independent - we all have to set our differences aside and work to preserve the Republic. Biden probably isn't your first choice, definitely wasn't my first choice, but it's either him or this country burns while Nero golfs. I know which one I prefer.
-
Yep--orange guy was/is a bully. He makes no bones about it. He sees himself as the newest tyrant for life--he makes it clear that the election is invalid and he will remain Mr. President until he gives it to his precious (gollum) daughter. The bully opens his mouth and more lies tumble out. He has only one set of rules--his and what he deems is his at any given moment. Biden may not be the best, but he was the only sane person on the stage tonight. He also told his 'army' to 'stand down' but stand by. White nationalists rejoice.

These things aren't actually debates as I understand the term. Presidential debates are more like Jerry Springer reality TV.

It's no Lincoln-Douglas, that's for sure. I've seen more rational disputes on friggin' Facebook. A big part of that is of course Trump but also the format has changed to soundbites and glittering generalities and thought-terminating cliches (it is what it is). That's what gets rewarded, not knowledge or expertise or rational discourse. Part of how we got into this mess in the first place.
-
I think I recall these may have originally been sponsored by the League of Women Voters. I may have confused this with the local debates in my small home town, but I remember them as being more constructive. The format has changed to accommodate the deep emotional division between the parties. This type of "debate" environment gives Trump a tremendous advantage. If they had any inclination to control actual uninterrupted times when a candidate is given the floor, they should give the moderator a switch that could turn off either mike. I think that would be fun to watch. It would be like one of those vaudeville hooks they could drag a lousy comedian off the stage with.
-
I think I heard someone say "wash it." Don't know what was so dirty, though, except Trump's whole life.
All the women who have accused Biden of assault should have been in the studio audience ;-) Biden is a senile, criminal, traitor, rapist ;-) I feel more sorry for the 1/2 of voters who will vote for such a sad candidate, than the other half who will vote for the obnoxious NYC guy (same as 2016 with the even more vile Hillary).
Even Jimmy Carter, once chased away in his boat by a ninja rabbit, is a better candidate than Biden. Carter wasn't guilty of accessory to war crimes like Biden. Nobody ever accused him of rape, or corruption from foreign officials/commercial interests. He wasn't behind the assassination attempt on Reagan, that was a Bush operation.
"Media call for upcoming debates to be 'canceled,' urge Biden to back out after first brawl with Trump" ... two old men in a pillow fight. One or both should have died on that stage (America wants a cage fight with blood). One can hope that the Pence/Harris contest will be more like the Hamilton/Burr contest ;-) Harris is the real candidate, Biden would resign a month after the inauguration.
"Trump vs Chris Wallace, while Biden listened to ear piece. It was Theatre by Biden Wallace and the DNC." ... and Biden says how proud he is of his son (and his 3.5 million dollar bribe from the Moscow madam) ... "If Joe Biden ‘remains lucid’ he’ll be declared the winner of first debate" ... He did, and so did Hillary. Joe should offer the same drugs he is taking, free to all Americans!

China, Russia, Iran and the virus won that debate. Even the stupidest, mildly racist redneck who is only capable of digesting guttural Fox news soundbites while pickling their liver with natty lites and paradoxically existing on Socialism Security and Federal Health Insurance Medicaid/care is a better human than the murderous Putin, the dystopian CCP or the theocratical Ayatollahs. However they are all threats to the human race because they care nothing of the 'fake' threat...the greenhouse effect. The suffering before it turns around will require a new adjective to describe. If you have young children, they and their children will grow to hate us.
We gotta pull together, somehow.

The orange monster thrives on chaos. Why would he change? He turned the 'debates' into chaos, which is what he does to everything. So there was no surprise to last night. The only thing that can halt that approach is the ability of the moderator to hit a kill mike switch. And that will not happen--orange would not come to such an event. I think Biden did about as well as he could in mess he ended up in. I would advise him not to do the other two.

Presidential debates have become more and more pointless over the years. But refusing to debate, even in a pointless situation is a risky political strategy. Such wisdom would be seen as cowardliness by many. And the electorate, having grown up on reality TV, loves this kind of stuff. Biden did a mediocre job defending against Trump's bullying, which was mostly about all Trump did, but I think (and I often think wrong) that Trump gained more from the debate than Biden. My guess is that it wasn't a lot, but I'm pretty sure most of his core base was delighted. It's what his base referrs to as "Telling it like it is." It's not how accurate this cowboy is; It's how fast he shoots.
-
But then there's this, which does not include an opinion from FOX News.
Who helped his election chances? Most analysts thought Trump did not. An instant CBS poll showed that slightly more voters thought Biden the winner than Trump. Doug Rivers of the polling firm YouGov wrote: “Trump did badly with his base. 15% of his supporters thought it was a tie, compared to only 4% of Biden supporters. Only 49% of Trump supporters thought it made them think better of Trump.”
Rich Lowry, National Review: “The key takeaway is that Trump set out to make Biden crack, and it didn’t happen.”
Nate Cohn, who analyzes polls for The Times: “What a mess. There was no winner, certainly not the United States. And that makes Biden the winner. He’s the frontrunner. It’s Trump who needed the win, and I think most anyone would agree, as Chris Wallace said, that the president was largely responsible for the debate.”

I am clueless as to who will gain additional votes, if any. The core voters are irrelevant. Who are the "sway-ables" at this point anyways?

Good, I support all people, including Russia and China and Iran. The US is a cancer on the world (because of the liberals). We can stop global warming by killing all the Western consumers ... do your part today! Will liberals (same as Puritans of yore, and Abolitionists) declare nuclear first strike on Russia, because Putin doesn't like gays? Will they give China a pass, because they need the fentanyl?
-

All the dead Democrats need to be swayed ;-) Nothing has been real, before or after 1960. The US is a lie, always has been treasonous and criminal. Already most Republicans don't consider the Democrats to be a legal political party, or even Americans. Independents (as I was until last year) consider both parties to be illegitimate criminal gangs. R & D agreed, only when the pie of stolen goods is growing fast enough they can put off fighting for their piece. The pie hasn't been growing since about 1973 (see difference between average worker and GDP starting then). So the knives have come out, because there is no honor among thieves (ask Native Americans).

Just minutes after his answer at the debate, members of the Proud Boys and similar groups celebrated his response, flooding their social media channels with comments like “Standing by, sir.”
“The comments by the president were a huge win for the Proud Boys, which we should remember is a group who views its mission as literally ‘fighting Antifa’ as part of its ’defense of the West,’” Megan Squire, a computer science professor at Elon University who tracks online extremism, tells TIME. “They’ve now been blessed by the President on the world stage and the data shows they are extremely excited by this.”
Squire adds that her software monitors about a dozen Proud Boys channels on Telegram, and saw them become “very energized” after Trump’s comments at the debate, posting a flood of messages and new memes. “They’re even debating whether to go ‘back to Portland,’ and how to proceed,” she says.

Who won? Putin won. America lost, but at least it was entertaining.
I watched half of it and turned it off in disgust. I hoped Biden would do better, but I don't know who could have done better. The whole thing was disgusting. But Biden's comment that resonated with me the most was during the Coronavirus segment, when Trump said he didn't want to make a big deal about the virus because he didn't want people to panic. I had been thinking about this for a long time. Biden said, "People understand the danger. They are not panicking. YOU PANICKED!" I wish he would have expanded on this.
Most of my peers are pretty diligent about wearing masks and distancing, and outside of Walmart, and Rural King, business have generally been fairly mindful also. But never have I met anyone of the group who was in a panic. I repeat. Never! Not one person! They just understand the consequences, and do what needs to be done. This is the rational response. If you have cancer, you go to the doctor and do what you need to do, knowing that treatment may or may not be successful. You know the consequences. You take appropriate steps, and do what you can do, unless you are a fool and are to scared to deal with it.
I think Trump did panic, not because he was certain to get sick, but because he didn't know what the fuck to do about the virus. The issue for him was the election, and he knew it was dangerous for him, because he had no idea what to do. Like a deer in the headlights, he froze, denied experts, defunded WHO, and blamed China.
"Didn't want people to panic?" Yeah right. Give me a break. He doesn't care about people panicking or rioting or fighting or people in distress. He loves that shit, but he hates the idea of not getting to control everything. The virus won that round.
-
The not-panic stance rings hollow considering how zealously he's fearmongered about "socialists" and Muslims and Mexicans and BLM and even Greta Thunberg, of all people. This is the kind of guy who claims that vaccines cause autism (be scared! be very scared!) but blocked the life-saving mask delivery because he thinks it'd freak people out. What a crock.

Non-panic would be to keep the Chinese travelers out of the US, as of Jan 1, not Jan 31 ... and not tell the deplorable why you are doing it. You folks are still singing the CCP anthem?
We had plenty of N95 masks before Swine Flu, and the Obama admin depleted that for the Swine Flu but never replenished. Of course the Trump admin should have noticed that, and replenished. So I blame both incompetents. I don't recall Biden suggesting 3 years ago to replenish the N95 masks, do you? So he is just another incompetent.

Post debate polling shows that a majority of voters still see Biden in the lead. I suspect this is just the inertia of pubic sentiment from previous polls. I had thought this may have been a turning point for Trump, given that he successfully bullied Biden and Chris Wallace throughout the debate. I'm also hearing most voters polled did not approve of Trump's tactics or the debate itself, which happily surprised me even more than people believing Biden "won" the debate. Even the debate commission, or whatever the thing is called, promised changes in format, but stopped short of including mike cut off switches for the moderator. Personally, I would make dead mikes automatic during the opponents 2 minute times, even if Trump wasn't part of it. At any rate these shameful media circuses should end.

Does anyone sense a deterioration in Trump's mental state during the last two years?

And I hope Biden drills down on the orange monster telling the right wing white nationalists to 'stand down but stand by'. Orange is sending out signal after signal that there will be bloodshed if he loses the election--a civil war would delight orange.
I don't often quote myself, but I have changed my mind. Biden needs to do the last two 'debates'. He needs to drill down, and drill down hard, on the orange monster's support for white nationalist organizations. And that he intends to use violence to control or negate the election process. Don't stop until orange makes his view very, very clear.

Everyone supposed that Biden would get Covid even before the first debate. Trump should now decline the remaining debates, unless he can go and cough on Biden ;-). The real debate is Pence vs Harris. Watch that one! It is Pence and Harris who are running for President, not the two old men. Of course both Pence and Harris are CIA.

I was mightily unimpressed by the first debate. I think both of them performed up to their supporters' expectations but no better. They both did just well enough so that their supporters can say their candidate won and the other lost. I don't think anyone gained ground or lost ground, it mostly convinced the already convinced.

There's going to be a Vice-Presidential debate tonight.
And it's going to have a plexiglass barrier between the candidates because the current VP is head of the coronavirus task force and might have covid through his boss, who recently hosted a largely maskless super-spreader event and now this virus is running rampant through his administration, which apparently wasn't competent enough to take even basic anti-virus precautions like masks and social distancing. (some, I assume, wash their hands)
4 more years of this okay with everyone?
Don't care for politicians in general. But at least now, the real candidates are debating, Harris in particular is the real D-Pres-Candidate.

The three things that stand out the most about the debate between the Orange Jester and the Geezer are:
Trump says "Well Boys stand back and stand by" like he is some kind of KKK Grand Master.
Trump denying global warming talking about CDF; as if he does a better job of running the WH; as if raking the ground would solve the problem. Ohhhkayyy- the Artic Circle is supposed to be frozen. It's supposed to be colder than the inside of your freezer, but there are massive fires in the Artic that make the Bobcat Fire look like somebody taking a smoke break.
Trump scores a big point against Biden. Trump accused Biden of leaving court seats empty. Bingo. The only reason that the temporary President of the Senate Mitch McC could put people in the courts is because the real President of the Senate Joe Biden was AWOL. absolutely nothing McC could do that was not legally the responsibility of Biden. The democrats shouldn't have even allowed Biden to be a candidate. That fn traitor Biden gave away 1/8 of the federal court seats to the Republicans.
Both Trump and Biden should be in prison for diff reasons.
Biden: dereliction of duty, felony violation of the 6th ammendment (and McC as well)
Trump: too many for my currently lazy fingers

Pence has been saying that he "trusts the American people" like he gets paid for every time he says it. Didn't trust them enough to be honest with them about the nature of this disease or to fight King Orange on his "just the flu bro" policy and "open 'er up and let 'em die" policy.
Pence has said they're rushing to get a vaccine out which certainly sounds good, but it's strange that they weren't gung ho about getting people to wear masks in the interim, even going as so far as blocking mask delivery to vulnerable Americans. Do they want to protect people or not? Why don't the words and actions match up?
And now he's deflecting to swine flu. When you just crapped the bed, it doesn't make you look any better by saying the other guy wet his bed years ago. He said the stockpiles were empty (https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/apr/08/donald-trump/trump-said-obama-admin-left-him-bare-stockpile-wro/), which is patently a lie.
Now that I know for a fact that there's a liar in the room, what chance does he have to persuade me or any other sensible American?
And if Pence was so focused on keeping America well prepared for a pandemic did he object when Trump fired the pandemic team? Pence's narrative is not adding up.
-
And now Pence is Wormtonguing it up, claiming that Biden is going to raise taxes (not unless you're making >$400,000/year), ban fracking (I wish), supports the Green New Deal (this is true only in my wildest dreams), and abolish fossil fuels (not true (https://www.factcheck.org/2020/06/misleading-ad-targets-biden-on-fossil-fuels-fracking/), but that's a good idea!)
And the final nail in the coffin was Pence saying that Trump is some great conservationist after crippling the EPA and rolling back a ton of environmental regulations (https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/climate/trump-environment-rollbacks.html) (including making drastic changes to a key environmental legislation (https://www.npr.org/2020/07/15/891190100/trump-overhauls-key-environmental-law-to-speed-up-pipelines-and-other-projects))
So now I know for a fact that Pence is a complete liar. No one trust a liar. No one believes a liar. And so help me, this liar just lost the election with his lies.
-
I will say this though: both candidates here seem like reasonably-intelligent politicians (lying notwithstanding). They can even have a real debate by (sometimes reluctantly) giving up the floor and letting someone else talk.
In fact, I'd go so far to say that if all I knew about these candidates was these two debates, I'd assume that Pence was the Presidential candidate and Trump the VP pick. Same with Harris and Biden.

Quick summary ...
Pence is the opposite of Trump, and a threat for 2024
Harris is a CCP stooge same as the Biden family, not a threat for 2020 or 2024
2016 ... Repubs had nobody better than Donald, a known Democrat. Dems had nobody better than Hillary, a known Republican.
2020 ... Donald is incumbent, so no surprise there. Dems had nobody better than Joe, a doddering old fool and crook
Analysis .. DNC and RNC are a liability. Fire all of them.
-
And before I forget, Pence said that Biden would ban fossil fuels (*clutches pearls*) shortly before praising Trump as some great conservationist. Did he forget that fossil fuels are a pollutant?

“I’m not going to waste my time on a virtual debate, that’s not what debating is all about,” Mr. Trump told the anchor Maria Bartiromo during a Fox Business television interview. “You sit behind a computer and do a debate — it’s ridiculous.”
He only wants to debate if he can be within coughing distance of Biden, and those plexiglass shields don't exactly inspire confidence. 2020 will be remembered for Trump going off the rails and the fly on Pence's head. I didn't watch the debate last night. The campaign is getting silly. It's hard to take it seriously.
-

Translation: Trump is a fucking coward, which almost all bullies are.
Also, he desperately needs to not debate because of the damage he does himself. He's trying to get out of the debates any way he can. He's apparently decided looking like a coward and a petulant child is less damaging than trying to explain himself in public.

Part of Agenda 21 from the UN (controlled by China). Western countries to be reduced to nature preserves for Chinese tourism. Only electric buggies allowed. Of course this environmental care won't apply to China. Guided safari hunting of feral Americans at additional charge.

It was a gambit, to make Biden look weak compared to the God Emperor. And he does look weak, for many reasons. If Trump wasn't a coward he would strangle Biden on stage, as a mercy killing?

I hear they're going to have another boat parade for Trump, but I have a sinking feeling about that idea...

I had a scary thought. I need to forget about the news for now.
One probable scenario for the upcoming election IMHO: many Trump voters will physically go to the polls and it may initially seem more like a Trump victory on election night. Then as the mail-in votes slowly get counted it will shift to Biden over the next few days. If Trump cries foul and calls out (implied or directly) the tiny minority of armed goons, there may be violence. How, where and when, I do not know.
These fake 'militia' seem inept, mostly gun guys who rub on their AR15s late at night. However there is a slight chance they trigger a reaction from some moderates if these 'militias' manage to get themselves killed.

Thinking about what I'm reading lately, and all the information I've gotten from the past is that Republicans get money from big donors and Democrats get money from the riff raff. Of course the riff raff (god love us) doesn't have much money. I've heard about several Trump donors, or maybe it's just a few donors several times that fork over 100 million at a time.
But during the last couple of weeks, Biden is spending 40 mil a week to Trumps 20 mil. If the common knowledge (not necessarily accurate knowledge) holds, then it seems like Trump should be outspending Biden by millions each week, especially when he's running behind, but he's not spending, almost like he's blown his nest egg. Is he holding back until the last couple of weeks?

I don't think this happens that often. I can't remember in my lifetime, when the winner of the election wasn't declared that evening. They always mention that there are still mail in ballots to be counted, but they never seemed to matter. Now they talk about mail in ballot's like they actually make a difference. Maybe mail in voting has only been kind of a norm in recent years. It's been only recently that I'm starting to hear friends say they've been voting by mail for years, but since they never said that before, I'm thinking, "Really?"
If Trump cries foul and calls out (implied or directly) the tiny minority of armed goons, there may be violence. How, where and when, I do not know.
The first time I heard about this was a couple of years ago when some crazy preacher said that if Trump loses the next election, there will be rioting and shootout's in the street. Now, it's been like a rallying cry, but I think it's just hype. It's wishful thinking, and no doubt some right wingers would love it, but I don't think it's seriously caught on yet. Given time, hate speech can turn into actions, but I don't think we are there yet.

They are like little kids playing "Army." They ARE inept, but bold, and they can do a lot of damage. Mostly their effect will be to intimidate. They are terrorists. Their purpose is to intimidate and wear down opposition, and attract other nut jobs to the cause. I'm thinking starting a bloody revolution is a long shot. They don't really have a plan for what comes after a revolution, but few revolutions do. It just leads to anarchy, followed by a power vacuum, and then some self seeking dictator that surfaces. Mostly these guys will get run over and squashed when the tanks show up.

And speaking of fundraising (https://www.npr.org/2020/09/21/915301313/biden-enters-campaigns-final-stretch-with-cash-advantage-over-trump):
At the beginning September (bear in mind this isn't super recent news, October's numbers haven't been officially posted yet afaik), the Biden campaign reported $466 million cash on hand compared to Trump's $325 million.
His [Trump's] campaign and the Republican National Committee spent almost all the money they took in during August, though they were still outspent by Biden's campaign and the Democratic National Committee, according to the filings.
On television advertisements, Biden outspent Trump nearly 4 to 1 in August, according to the tracking firm Ad Analytics.
Trump's campaign bought no ads on local TV in Pennsylvania, Michigan and New Hampshire, and was outspent by Biden significantly in Florida, North Carolina and Wisconsin.
-
There isn't really much of a Trump campaign, I think, because the GOP is expecting to successfully steal the election, so why spend all that money now. They're only going through the motions so it won't t be so obvious that they're going to reinstall Trump no matter what it takes.

That's because they're shameless hypocrites who don't play by the same rules. When a Conservative Supreme Court justice died in Obama's last year in office, he didn't nominate a Democrat, because he knew the Republicans would be concerned about the court actually leaning to the Left the way they always liked to claim that it already was. Instead, Obama nominated a moderate, who didn't lean heavily in either direction. Because Democrats are willing to compromise. Now, for Fox News to tell Biden to put "country ahead of party," that's a complete joke. Biden was the most tame Democrat we had to choose from. He was chosen because he was safe and nonthreatening, not because he has these grand ideas about how he's going to fix things. They expect us to believe that Biden is a Socialist, that he's going to abolish the police and abolish the prisons? Please.

I've wondered about this. Are they so out of touch that they don't realize Biden is actually a moderate? Maybe, maybe not.
Seems like a terrible strategy, to parade one's cluelessness. But then I remembered their audience. These people have commies under their beds, socialists in the closet, and "social marxists" in the cupboard. Of course they're dumb enough to fall for this kind of stuff.
And this big-brained strategy may have a secondary goal - to try to drive a wedge between moderate Dems and leftists. Every time the Biden camp denies that they'd back a Green New Deal or ban fracking, it presumably upsets the Bernie wing that actually wants those things and sows division in the Democratic Party's big tent.
If that's what they're stealthily going for, they're in for a rude awakening - the Sanders camp has already fallen in love and then fallen in line in the aftermath of the bitter primary season. We understand what's at stake this election and the vast majority support Biden out of sheer pragmatic reasons (to say nothing of Sanders actively campaigning for Biden and finding some policy common ground)
Meanwhile, Trump has all but declared war on American voting rights, providing the Dems exactly the sort of common threat that they needed to solidify and even expand their coalition. Whatever votes he hoped to peel away from the Dems are more than counteracted by the desperate alliances he helped form.

538 is now giving Biden an 86% chance to win (https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2020-election-forecast/).
And according to the state-by-state breakdown, Trump would have to win every state that leans his direction plus all the states where he's currently trailing by about 5% to win the election.
Trump would have to win:
Texas (51.1% Trump, 47.9% Biden)
Iowa (49.8% Trump, 48.9% Biden)
Georgia (49.9% Trump, 49.3% Biden)
Ohio (49.7% Biden, 49.3% Trump)
NC (50.6% Biden, 48.6% Trump)
Arizona (50.8% Biden, 47.9% Trump)
Florida (51.4% Biden, 47.8% Trump)
Wisconsin (52.8% Biden, 46.3% Trump)
It's unclear how he expects to win Ohio and Iowa after recently suspending all ad spending there. Talking over his opponent is one of Trump's key strengths - letting Biden take the floor in the crucial month before the election is a hell of a risky strategy, but I guess that's what you have to do when you're in debt.
Meanwhile, Biden is surging his ads in Ohio, Iowa, Texas, and Georgia. He gets to control the narrative in the first two, and really lean into Trump's shaky support in the last two. Texas may be a long shot, but Georgia is a much closer race. Losing that would be so embarrassing for Trump and the RNC.

Virginia’s Citizen Portal has gone down due to a cut fiber on Tuesday, preventing people from registering to vote online on the last day of voter registration before the Nov. 3 election, the Department of Elections says.
Residents can still register to vote by mailing in or dropping off paper applications.
Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax said that outages are reported statewide and called for the voter registration deadline to be extended beyond Tuesday. However, the Board of Elections hasn't announced plans to adjust the deadline.
There was a cut fiber somewhere in the vicinity of Richmond.

Yesterday, I saw another Biden/Harris sign in my county. That makes a total of three, or somewhere less than .01% of all the signs county wide. There are probably more, but this represents a 20 mile radius of my house on the more traveled secondary roads, which are actually not that well traveled. This is southwestern Virginia's version of "Democrats coming out of the woodwork." Usually, there are no Democratic signs at all.

I live in CA, but in a county that went Bush both times and trump the last time. I have not seen a trump nor Biden sign in my neighborhood, which is quite strange. And I have seen only one presidential sign in any part of town--a Biden/Harris sign. Usually those signs are everywhere. The city, county and state signs are everywhere.

Speaking of signs, this was in the local news. I think if this "police officer" had any integrity he or she would have had a conversation with their neighbor and not sent an anonymous letter.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — A Greensboro woman is turning to the police after receiving a threatening letter in response to her yard sign.
The sign states several philosophies like Black lives matter, love is love, science is real, and water is life. The letter used intimidating language and claimed Black Lives Matter is a Marxist revolutionary group that wants to overthrow the government.
The writer closed with, “You and your sign are disgusting. Signed, a police officer, who you may someday call if, at night while you are sleeping, intruders break into your home and you are in fear of your life.”

Jennifer Erausquin, the woman the letter was directly addressed to, says she sees the letter as proof that we have a long way to go.
“I truly believe that what we need is faith in our community, faith that we can come together, that we can have conversations and come to a shared understanding about our community, humanity, and human rights,” Erausquin said. “I’m willing to have hard conversations and I will always respect other people’s beliefs and their right to free speech.”
Erausquin reported the letter to Greensboro police officers and they're working to track down where it came from.
They say they have received 845 reports like this so far this year, compared to 580 at this time last year.

Trump claims he's winning over Bernie supporters. He's wrong. (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-10-14/trump-is-wrong-he-isn-t-winning-bernie-sanders-voters-over-biden)
Trump’s contention that he’ll attract Sanders voters is based on the notion that he’s an economic populist and that voters on the left will overlook his record on race, immigration, and women, and spurn Joe Biden at the polls. The idea that Trump could win over a meaningful percentage of Sanders voters and left populists first originated with former Trump advisor Steve Bannon, who put this theory into action with disastrous results that led to his ouster from the White House.
According to a tracking poll from Drew Linzer of the data analytics firm Civiqs, people who supported Sanders in the Democratic primaries now favor Biden over Trump 84% to 4%. And Trump’s 4% is unlikely to grow: 94% of Sanders supporters have an unfavorable view of the president.
In 2016, Trump ran on a fake populism platform which most Sanders supporters correctly deduced was a lie. This year, he's running on tear gas and plague. Unfavorable is a bit of an understatement.

Seriously, Bill and Hillary are miles more evil than the Bidens or the Obamas. Democrats are slavers since Andrew Jackson, but slavery has changed over time. Republicans were Whigs (Yankee plutocrats). President Jackson was elected to take them down, and he did, shutting down the predecessor of the Federal Reserve, and bringing about the first Great Depression ... in 1836. From 1913-1933 it was a bipartisan thing to bring about the second Great Depression (using the new Federal Reserve as a partner). Woodrow Wilson was one of the most evil Presidents, and he was a Democrat. Same with Herbert Hoover, an evil Republican. Y'all are being played, and played. In my time, LBJ was far more evil than Nixon.

The emails thing is more believable. Even if I do think it's horseshit. But the idea that Bin Laden was never actually killed? Where's he been all this time? Wouldn't he want to let people know he was still causing trouble for America? I mean, which is easier, killing Bin Laden or finding a body double to play the part of Bin Laden, killing the double, then shooting down the soldiers who took part to cover it up? Trump's loyal sheep will lap it up, of course, but I don't think the general public is stupid enough to take that seriously.

I listened to a podcast about this and bear in mind that these people are supposed to be more or less average Americans (queue the general idiocy) and their general impression is that the operation was so sudden, the body disposed of so quickly, and not really documented that it comes across as very suspicious. This whole chain of events is fertile ground for conspiracy/denialism and therefore Trump's assertion is somewhat reasonable and whether or not Bin Laden is dead is an open question.
Of course, they didn't have a particularly well-read impression. From what I've gathered, Bin Laden was indeed identified and he was buried out at sea so there would be no gravesite (which no Middle Eastern country would want) and minimal political fallout.
The moral of the story is that you can take just about anything, give part of the story (it's helpful to know as little as possible for this part) and make it sound extremely suspicious and therefore some big conspiracy.

Not clear, because of the body being disposed of. Osama had several sons as tall as he was (he was taller than normal), and he is rumored to have had body doubles. Supposedly the DNA of relatives confirms the kill, but that might only confirm it is one of his sons. The old rumor was that the FBI visited Osama in a Dubai hospital in August 2001. He had health problems, and may have died. His people could have invested in using a body double to pretend he was still alive. These rumors were around long before Trump was elected. Trump as President could have seen the classified report, but he is no genetics expert. Obama as President may have found even a false kill to be politically helpful, since this was a year before his re-election.
https://www.history.com/news/the-costliest-day-in-seal-team-six-history
So this falls into the conspiracy theory, as most people on the Osama raid didn't live long.

Some of their wives too, but not always. One guy like this was my mentor. He mentioned his family couldn't stand to be around him anymore. It is all he talked about. I was apolitical at the time, too busy with tech stuff. He got so worked up with hate of "libtards" he gave himself a heart attack and then another and finally a fatal stroke. The last time I saw him he was enjoying chatting "engineering" with a bunch of liberals. Just gotta steer clear of certain topics. Just treat them like addicts.

Bernays promoted women smoking, in 1929, as part of women's liberation (he was paid by Big Tobacco). In the early 50s he worked with the CIA to destabilize Guatemala.

Oh, Obama war criminal? Yes, him too. The Bidens are minor criminals, like Pelosi, Schiff etc.
Evidence on the Biden family hid by FBI since last November? If it had come out 10 months ago, the Biden family would be on trial, and Bernie Sanders would be the Dem candidate. I think that would have been a better outcome, an honest communist vs a crime family. But that wouldn't have suited the Clintons at all.

Some kind of record breaking super pac is funding mega millions to Biden, who is apparently outspending Trump by double or something like that. I guess this is considered some kind of indicator of who's ahead, but I'm astounded at why blatant ads can be that effective. Ads are not like actual news coverage, which seems like a better indicator of who would be the better choice. People are affected by ads to be sure, which is what Madison Ave is all about, but ads don't tell you what you need to know. They are mostly lies, whether they are for a political candidate or Ibuprofen. And mega millions of ads funneled into a swing state seems like it would get tiresome.
Maybe a big campaign war chest tells us that more people support a candidate, but who are these people? Big money comes from big corporations, with their own motives, and of course they are going to pour money into Biden's account, because he's the most likely winner. No sense giving Trump money if he's not going to be there to do your bidding. It's not like giving money to a candidate is an endorsement, It's about buying the candidate. It tells us who the winner will be doing the favors for, and it's most likely not going to be you.

Some kind of record breaking super pac is funding mega millions to Biden, who is apparently outspending Trump by double or something like that. I guess this is considered some kind of indicator of who's ahead, but I'm astounded at why blatant ads can be that effective. Ads are not like actual news coverage, which seems like a better indicator of who would be the better choice. People are affected by ads to be sure, which is what Madison Ave is all about, but ads don't tell you what you need to know. They are mostly lies, whether they are for a political candidate or Ibuprofen. And mega millions of ads funneled into a swing state seems like it would get tiresome.
Maybe a big campaign war chest tells us that more people support a candidate, but who are these people? Big money comes from big corporations, with their own motives, and of course they are going to pour money into Biden's account, because he's the most likely winner. No sense giving Trump money if he's not going to be there to do your bidding. It's not like giving money to a candidate is an endorsement, It's about buying the candidate. It tells us who the winner will be doing the favors for, and it's most likely not going to be you.
China + Soros + Bloomberg + ActBlue (getting money from BLM and AntiFa) + corporations joining Cthulhu (they want to be the last eaten). That is why Trump isn't loved by corporations, he is wealthy enough to not give an F.
Per road signs above ... some people are Uncle Toms ;-) The first one should add "I'm a Karen". How dare they stereotype White people as blondes!!

I've wondered that myself. Is that one of the reasons there are no poor people serving in congress--either house?? With the orange monster, there is no mystery--like a good mob boss, it goes into his pockets.
-
What does that even mean? Is he mocking? What is it? America is not in depression? The world is in depression, America is not floating in space.
The thing with people who think they hold absolute power is that they see the world in black and white and the world is never black and white. So he's actually been doing what he claims is harmful for the country the whole time.
I also wonder what he understand from the word 'scientist'. Whats her face, the demon sex lady? Isn't that the scientist for these people?
Trump claimed that the scientists would lock everything down (apparently for no reason) slowing down the economy. So yes, he meant listen to the scientists as if it were a bad thing.
And yes, we are in an economic depression right now. Maybe if we locked everything down, got cases under control, then reopened safely, that wouldn't have happened. Guess we'll never know. What I do know is that this disease is still running rampant, the POTUS alternates between playing the blame game and being deeply in denial (true leadership right there), and a lot of places are still closed because there's still no safe way to open.

Trump: "nobody wants me", leaves event early (https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-election-2020/nobody-wants-me-trump-plays-sympathy-card-at-pennsylvania-rally-before-cutting-event-short-and-dancing-off-stage-to-ymca-b1200436.html)
In one of his most bizarre and incoherent performances to date, president Donald Trump on Tuesday night told a Pennsylvania rally "nobody wants me" before cutting the event short and dancing off the stage to YMCA.
Outmuscled financially and trailing Joe Biden in most national and battleground polls, Mr Trump did not appear to be his usual energetic self, as he addressed thousands of Make America Great Again supporters crammed into a chilly and dark Erie International Airport.
Two weeks out from election day the president, 74, complained about the temperature, which had been hovering around 10C (50F) telling the crowd he was only there because he was losing, a highly unusual move – even for a president as unpredictable as Mr Trump.
At one point, the commander-in-chief appeared to be trying to get the crowd to feel sorry for him, telling them "nobody wants me".

It is all about money. You can shrive your soul by sending me all of yours ;-)
Back in the day, candidates pocketed lots of money in campaigns that didn't go the campaign. And lots of lobbyist bribes went to officials while in office. They tried to reform this a few decades ago, but the reforms have been an utter failure.
On Trump, y'all find his NYC humor incomprehensible. Bunch of Cali surfer bums ;-)

It was hard to read his body language in that little snippet. I would say he looked dramatically unlike himself, but what he was feeling I'm not sure. I though maybe resignation to his likely loss in November? He was trying to make a joke about not being wanted by China and Iraq, but he looked worn out, which would be natural in recovery from Coronavirus, and we don't know when they took him off the Dex, so he could be crashing. I wonder if he's going to be too tired to bully Biden tomorrow night. I plan on watching the "debate" for at least 20 minutes, and then turning it off, unless it's actually interesting and not a version of reality TV.

Why do I have this mental image of baby boomers/X leaving a country half-flooded and half-on-fire to an early onset diabetic generation that has started adulthood in-debt, living in their parent's (2nd mortgaged) house with a shelf full of participation trophies while a pandemic rages needlessly?
Holy run-on sentence Batman.
Being on the Boomer-X cusp myself...I am rooting for millennials. They are way more socially conscience, green minded, mostly godless and when they get their shit together they will save the planet and the species. Hopefully Trump will be the final really bad contribution that us boomers can muster up before we check out. We need to keep our sense of humor about all of this. Somehow. Life is still wonderful and beautiful and people are still basically good.
-
SNL? Like when Bill Burr mocked y'all?
Hate Boomers? Want to kill us before or after you toss us in the nursing home?
Oh, I thought Millennials were the worst generation, now they are the master race?
I support all the 20-60 year olds, because you are the ones that have to make things happen. But not out of any generational prejudice. Children are too young and seniors are too old.
"Putin says US Democratic Party 'closer to Social Democratic ideas,' would work with 'any future president'" .. he helped Hillary, not Trump.

Parents ... can't live with them, can't be born/raised without them ;-) You got to be you (you adult you). Sorry they are dorks, "it is the way" per Mandalorian. Parents live to embarrass their children, but usually when they are teenagers and are too emo. You can embarrass them back, in love. I certainly did.

Yeah it's probably the drugs and they'll adjust the dose or come up with a better arrangement. Or it is some sort of an act.
But wouldn't they know that? For whatever reason he is taking it, they would know it has side affects like this. Because this is not a 70 something year old living at the next door whose behavioural disorders only affect the wife, the dog and neighbours who constantly avoids him. He is a president.
If it is an act or a combination of drugs and act; if they are letting it happen for the means of some strategy, it is gonna get really creepy. I swear, I can picture him crying in front of the cameras; telling how much he loves you all one by one, how he was thinking about only you when he did anything and for this great country OR even blaming some deep state for the last 4 years on whatever he has said and done. It's going to be a Rick and Morty episode, buckle up.
In any case, the moment he is sure he can't get elected again, he will cry. Mark my words.

Yeah, that is a flat and low line for millennials alright. However...I dare say that most of that boomer wealth is concentrated in a very few individuals. The rest of it is anything but liquid; most (~>60%) is tied up in home equity. That's why Tom Selleck is on TV selling reverse mortgages so that some gen X's and millennials don't even get the house. The concentration of wealth has been extraordinary during the reign of the boomer. The stock market and patience are key mechanisms. When young, inexperienced people try to break in.. the reddit stock boards show what often happens:

The answer to a Boomer is a pre Boomer?
Trump born 1946
Biden born 1942
Generational wealth has been systematically suppressed since Ronald Reagan. This is bipartisan, because both parties work for the same Elites.
See chart repeated by Hillary who is a wealthy Boomer/Elite ;-)
https://www.epi.org/blog/inequality-central-productivity-pay-gap/
Boomers and later have all suffered from a productivity vs wage gap, and from inflation. There is more unemployment and underemployment than in the WWII generation who benefited from the unique post-WWII boom. Today work is more part-time than before, with less benefits after inflation. This is why in my parent's generation, a blue-collar worker who had full employment and good benefits could be married with children and the wife only worked if she wanted to and only part time even then.
"$1 in 1980 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $3.15 in 2020, a difference of $2.15 over 40 years" a decline in value by more than 2/3.
Most of my income over 40 years was spent on daily expenses and credit card interest (something my parent's didn't have). A great deal was burned because of cyclical unemployment. For most of the Boomers, a great deal was spent on mortgage payments, their house being their primary investment, and many put a second mortgage on it during the go-go years before 2009 aka the bank still owns the house (and the government ultimately owns it thru eminent domain).
The next generation will see little inheritance, because of uncovered medical expenses, mortgages underwater, and funeral expenses. The first and third items nearly exhausted my parent's estate, along with my mother living to a very old age. They did benefit uniquely by a positive housing market that they cashed out of around 2009 or before. My real estate was a net loss before retirement. Beware that any paper assets are of ephemeral value compared to even real estate, since they are all based on the bigger fool theory.

Starting in particular with Obama, Millennials and their parents were sold on going into ridiculous debt for a valueless college degree. But this decline started much earlier. For a pre-/early Boomer generation, college was even free in-state, and the value of even a non-STEM degree wasn't diluted by too many kids going to college, or by all genuine jobs being exported to India and China.

NYT: During the first two minutes each candidate speaks in each of the six 15-minute segments, his opponent’s microphone will be muted. After those initial statements in each segment, both mics will be turned on and are not expected to be cut off during the rest of the segment, even if one candidate keeps interrupting the other or eats up time talking.
Is this better than nothing? 4 minutes without interruption followed by an 11 minute free for all in each segment. Trump is probably brushing up on his interruptions right now. The news still can't resist the reality TV format. I'm going to give myself 8 minutes for the debate. I promise myself 8 minutes. It could be longer. I already voted so the debate doesn't help me. I received a dvd from Netflix today with the first 4 episodes of Penny Dreadful, it's in the drive and ready to go. I'm good, here. So you guys don't have to worry about me.

I'm not watching it. I consider debates to be useful to get insight on the candidates before voting. But since I've voted, then there's really no point to me watching it.

Reports say … better than before, election commission/moderator was less incompetent. Common tropes of the last 4 years, older and newer were touched upon. Both candidates did a fare amount of deflection. Biden didn't collapse (which I am afraid of, there are horrible theories about). In American terms I would call the experience of the last month "corned beef hash". Who is the corned beef and who is the potatoes (the other ingredient) depends on your politics ;-)

Orange kept his cool for the 'debate', but that just seemed to make the lies stand out more. I think he actually will come out as worse today than yesterday. All Biden had to do was not to lose, and he achieved that much anyway. My wife braved the entire show, and feels the same way.

I was pleasantly surprised at the tone, but Trump was still his usual lying self. At least he didn't come off as a lounge act. I listed to it on KGO, and then listed to John Rothman and his callers talk about it for 2 1/2 hours. I may need an intervention...
-
Hmm. So it was OK, as much as it can be.
But I'm not sure that 'the light tone' is good news from a different perspective. It means, he knows he could lose for real and while that's very good, it also means he is still acting out of 'character'. What is he capable of doing at a point he has nothing to lose after losing the elections? There is a huge difference between losing the first one and losing the second one, not to mention esp. in his position.
Because I hate to say it, but this is not going to end clean with Trump himself, am I wrong? Does it work that way? I wish it did. How many ways they have been trying to sue this man for the last 4 years? Democrats will try to reverse everything he did and they will jump the whole nine yards from international politics to his private life. And he's burned a lot of bridges too, somebody will have to pay the bill. Will republicans own up to him if he loses? To what end? Is he going to retire form politics? I don't know what to think about that but probably not. Maybe forced to?
Also people could start to talk when he steps down. Just what has been going with the staff the least would explode, imo. Then the officials. Who resigned in the last 4 years, when, why? It feels like a period of 'Trump scandals' could start if he loses. I dunno. And it will radicalise politics and people more at both sides, deepen the adversity and invite more divisive policies. Sigh. oooff.

How any one with any common sense could vote for a corrupt career politician with dementia and a running mate who slept her way into office and is the "real" candidate baffles me.

If you take any thing that the "atlantic" prints as non-biased,then you must also watch CNN & MSNBC all day. Think about it, not having the facts about this once in a lifetime unknown disease, and knowingly lying about it are two entirely different things. Unlike the media and the democrats,who tried everything they could to undermine our response and cause panic, and refusing to do anything to stop the rioting in their shit-hole cities is pathetic.I live in wash. state and the response by our democrat mayor and governor to all of this bullshit rioting and "peaceful" protesting is border line criminal.If the democrats ever get in power,we can kiss our freedom and our grandkids futures goodbye.

Trump didn't say obama founded isis, he said that he allowed it to spread to other countries and did nothing to stop it. Do you remember what obama did after seeing the video of that american getting be-headed? He went to the golf course.His response was pathetic.Go back and look at what was happening while he was in CUBA doing the "wave" at a baseball game. Obama was and is still a coward.

Maybe he just thought of it as a "punchier" version of what he actually meant (baffling as to why his supporters say that 'he tells it like it is' when they so often have to tie themselves into knots with 'what he really meant was...')
Let's assume that one is just Trump being Trump and saying stuff he doesn't really mean.
Here's 19,999 more (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/07/13/president-trump-has-made-more-than-20000-false-or-misleading-claims/). Get cracking.
Here's a good one: "Dems want to shut your churches down, permanently" (https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/oct/08/donald-trump/trump-falsely-claims-democrats-want-shut-your-chur/)

Well, I'll give you one thing, Bob. It's brave of you to come out as a Trump supporter here. You're not alone, but I hope you came prepared.

I wonder how Trump's supporters will feel after he's been in the office for another four years.

Could be brave. Most likely too stupid to know the difference. That is why he comes up with stupid stuff like--'what lies?' Trump lies every time he speaks or twitters. It has been documented. But he simply does not care.

Looking forward to Pence for 8 years ;-) ... you had to ask ... don't ask unless you like the answer

If you take any thing that the "atlantic" prints as non-biased,then you must also watch CNN & MSNBC all day. Think about it, not having the facts about this once in a lifetime unknown disease, and knowingly lying about it are two entirely different things. Unlike the media and the democrats,who tried everything they could to undermine our response and cause panic, and refusing to do anything to stop the rioting in their shit-hole cities is pathetic.I live in wash. state and the response by our democrat mayor and governor to all of this bullshit rioting and "peaceful" protesting is border line criminal.If the democrats ever get in power,we can kiss our freedom and our grandkids futures goodbye.

I hear up in Seattle giant slugs get elected to office and get coding jobs at Microsoft ;-)
The "that is an unreliable news source" is a battle often waged here. People fail to realize that confirmation bias works on anyone, not just the opponent side ;-)

No, atheists want to shut down churches. But that comes with the ideological territory. Since I have a "personal" relationship, if there is an institution or not is less important to me than it is to a pastor ;-)
-

Same as they do now. They can't admit their leader is a clown. Plus, he gives them what they want. The bigoted rednecks couldn't have asked for a better President.

This reminds me of a scene in Stargate SG1. Stargate Command discloses the classified secret of the stargate to key ambassadors of four other global powers asking them to keep the secret, because SG1 needs their help to save the world. The ambassadors get pissed because they had not been told of the secret before. The Chinese diplomat says, "I am afraid we will have to disclose this information to the Chinese people immediately, because our government does not keep secrets from it's people. Everyone in the room turns and just looks at him silently with wide eyed but otherwise blank expressions.

Hey, easy now. We are only trying to give Trump the benefit of the doubt by calling it a lie. Otherwise we have to explain it with phrases like "incompetent know-it-all." We work hard here to be as bipartisan as possible so please be polite.
-
It's brave of you to come out as a Trump supporter here.
Remember when bravery used to actually mean something? Putting yourself in harm's way to protect others, protesting injustice knowing there's going to be a brutal authoritarian response. Now it's defending everyone's favorite Sharper Image steak connaisseur against critcism by denying reality from the comforts of home via the internet. So brave.

And he's wrong as usual. He has enough knuckledraggers out there that the election isn't the foregone conclusion that it should be. For once, though, I agree with him in principle.

Has been socialist since FDR ... please read a book sometime ;-)) All the Elites agree ... communism for me, fascism for you ;-(

"America will NEVER become a socialist country"
Ah. So you're one of those gullible people who think Democrats have a secret socialist agenda. How original.
-
"America will NEVER become a socialist country"
I can't believe one guy is that stupid. But we are and have been a country with many socialist programs. And I seriously doubt you know what socialism is. You only dislike it because your cult leader told you to. It is clear you can't think so you need your orange monster (or one of his equally stupid minions) to 'think' for you.
-
"America will NEVER become a socialist country"
Serious question here: do you really think the DNC wants the USA to be a socialist country?
Follow up: can you accurately differentiate communism, socialism, and a capitalist state with social safety nets? Take a guess as to which one American liberals typically advocate for. It's an open book quiz, so you can ask a friend if it's too difficult.
-

Just more Russian propaganda, intended to create chaos. Seems to me there's enough of that already, but I guess there can never be enough for Putin and his crafty minions.

I dislike communism because I hate atheist Jews with big beards who don't properly support their families because they think they are a famous thinker ;-) Trump has nothing to do with it, he isn't Jewish, not atheist, and has no beard ;-))
It is reasonable to call anyone who supports the linking of corporations to state power ... a fascist. Both US parties are fascists in that sense. Lobbying brings that. A party that would abolish corporations is communist.
"The leader of the 1917 Russian Bolshevik Revolution, Vladimir Lenin, once said, “The goal of socialism is communism.”" ... defang corporations then kill them.
"Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini
People who didn't implement fascism (Mussolini did) or implement communism (Lenin did) are posers.

The Elite want socialism aka the taxpayer supports the rich, and the Elite screw the taxpayers. It is a form of asymmetrical predation by sociopaths. The D/R duopoly do what the Elite tell them to, and the Deep State makes sure they do.
The more true this is, the closer you are to communism. Why did Lenin support communism? Because like Marx, he was a agitator writer who couldn't hold down an honest job. This applies to Mussolini and Hitler too, but differently, in that they were originally agitator writers. They supported Big Business and Big Government as a partnership (see Krupps in Germany) ... they didn't call for Big Business to be abolished.

Not secret, a public thing since FDR/Truman/JFK/LBJ. After the Boomer hippies took over they took a bad liberal thing and made it into even worse neo-liberal thing. Got a social net? Some do, but access is based on political pull and superficial victimhood status. The greatest beneficiaries of socialism (see 2008) were the Elite. Before that, the women benefited from Civil Rights far more than any Black did. LBJ made literal war on the Black family. The neo-liberals like Biden continue that war. They treat criminals as necessary, and as controlled opposition (Black shirts).

Current Hunter Biden leaks apparently coming from Chinese enemies of the CCP, who see the Bidens as friends of the CCP.

It's kind of hard to take seriously what someone says when their "name or I.D" for any web-site is a cartoon character or anime. I think, and this is just my opinion, that the reason that they're so angry and try to make things personal,is because politics is their "new" religion. Conseratives want to be able to raise their families and be left the hell alone. This country needs less government,not more. You can't tell us how to vote,how to think,or how to raise our families. The democrats want to control every aspect of our lives. If you truly believe that a corrupt career politican like
Biden, who is clearly not mentally fit to run the country is actually the one calling the shots, then there's there nothing much left to say, except to tell you to GROW UP. Stop playing video games, put down the damn phone for one day,and actually talk to other people.

Same for liberals.
You can't tell us how to vote,how to think,or how to raise our families. The democrats want to control every aspect of our lives.
Same can be said for Republicans. We want to be able to marry who we want, to plan our families as we want, to follow the religion we want (or not) without having someone else's values forced upon us.
Stop playing video games, put down the damn phone for one day,and actually talk to other people.
I agree. We white people need to listen to minorities. Really listen. And don't make assumptions that the world works the same for them as it does for us.

Ah.....the brain dead speatheth. As usual, doesn't make any sense. Yeah, I know conservatives (is your orange monster really a 'conservative'.......aww, why ask when clearly the brain dead don't know what a conservative is..) just want to live as they want to---and to tell everybody else how they will live. That's all.

You mean like following a charismatic leader who can do no wrong, insisting that Pi = 3 because that's what their holy book says, and sometimes even advocating violence against nonbelievers?
Conseratives want to be able to raise their families and be left the hell alone.
Tell you what, when the Dems get power again, I'll vocally oppose any government law that infringes on reproductive rights, advocate for marijuana decriminalization, and push for immigration reform so the government doesn't "accidentally" separate parents and kids.
Live and let live, right? Surely we agree on this, don't we?
This country needs less government,not more.
So, you're against increases in military spending? Homeland Security? ICE? TSA? Space Force? Conservatives sure do hate government expansion, right?

I have absolutely no desire to tell any body else how to live their life.Being an angry democrat or liberal(they are one in the same) must be very mentally and physically exhausting. Concern yourself with your own "little" opinions ,stop trying to rationalize what AOC and the rest of the "nutbags" say is best for our country, and live your lives to your own best abilitys. I couldn't care less what any ones opinions are of me(except my families) and won' t lose any sleep over any thing any one else says. "Facts don't care about your feelings". Vote with your heads, not your emotions. TRUMP 2020!

Clearly that is bullshit--just like your cult leader you seem to only be able to lie. Your posts have been all about telling me what to believe and how to live. If I had wanted any shit out of you I'd have simply squeezed your head. Why not crawl back into your hole and concern yourself with fighting with your family.
