Hillary endorses Biden ... no surprised ... she is a monster like Biden.

A new poll of Bernie supporters reveals 1 in 4 say they will not be voting for Biden. Progressives and conservatives are attacking Biden from both sides. Americans appear dispirited due to the pandemic and associated economic meltdown and none of the Democrats, neither Biden or Bernie, are inspiring confidence. I think these rape allegations are going to affect Biden in a way they would not affect Trump-- do Democrats "believe all women" or not? Currently, Trump's campaign has $98.5 million on hand compared to Biden’s $26.4 million and I suspect that people who currently have money, the wealthy, will fund Trump because he represents their financial interests. Polls currently favor Biden but they also favored Clinton back in 2016, so we shall see.

I wouldn't put it past them.  That strategy certainly worked in the primary.

Rogan considers universal healthcare "socialism" but from my perspective healthcare should have never been the responsibility of corporations any more than law enforcement, national defense or education.
It's my understanding that healthcare became a thing offered with your job during World War II when there were wage controls, so businesses started offering medical coverage when they couldn't offer higher wages.  Unfortunately, it got ingrained in the system.

I have no idea. He isn't held to the same standards as other politicians. He's laying the groundwork to spin the pandemic crisis to his advantage by instructing the media to connect Wuhan labs to COVID-19 so he has a scapegoat, writing his name on stimulus checks, framing Democrats as using this crisis for their own ends, etc. He hasn't even really started attacking Biden yet. I'm expecting Trump to be re-elected and will be pleasantly surprised if he loses, although we will never hear the end of it.

The Koch brothers have funded Democrats.  There are other wealthy people who do.  The wealthy are not monolithic.  FDR was very wealthy, and very liberal.

China did nothing wrong!  Enemies of China are running dogs of capitalism!

Everyone is attacking Biden except the women who want to be VP.  I think the Dem primary system was laughable.  That and the vampire grip of the Clintons on the DNC.  The convention and election can only be tragedies given those self inflicted wounds.  Covid is a wild card.  Yes, all politicians should be held accountable for their countless crimes (I am serious).  The Dems partly got the party platform enacted as part of the stimulus package (Pelosi had to be thrown a bone).  If this was 2010, Dems could have gotten all of it.  But having unilateral power can backfire as ACA did.

50/50.  I expect total failure of civilization thru depression and world war.  The election is unimportant compared to that.  Apocalyptic dystopia was planned in, by the Chinese and the Western Elite who work with them.  Can you work as a maid or secretary?  Those will be the only jobs open to women in the World of the Future (Future House in Disneyland circa 1960).  Men can get jobs as butlers, pool boys and chauffeurs.  The Elite of today are no more sane than in France 1788.  By definition, even if they aren't addicted to expansive drugs (I wonder how predominant opium was in Paris) ... they lead lives disconnected from reality (like academics).

Will Justian Amash, Michigan Congressman, former Repub, also become a former Dem by becoming the Libertarian candidate in November?  The Libertarians will be on the ballot in 35 states.

Keep in mind the margin by which he lost the vote in '16, though, and the tiny margins by which he carried traditional 'blue wall' states that let him slip through the Constitutional loophole.  You also had a lot of people thinking four years ago, 'well, hell, what could it hurt to go outside the system?'

Now they know.

Also, I found this telling -- he threatened to sue his campaign manager for bringing him bad poll numbers.  More and more, they can only report to him if they bring him good news (or more likely, find an outlier poll they can lean on).

That raises an interesting prospect, and one I can easily see happening -- the Oval Orifice suing his campaign staff for losing the election this fall.

People think they can get into the "mind" of Trump, while having said he is stupid or insane.  What does that say about you? ;-)

"Biden Bumbles Over Tara Reade Answers During Tense MSNBC Interview" ... with Mika Brzezinski, daughter of Felix, who is Kissinger's protege.  Doesn't get more Deep State than that.  Clearly CIA/FBI support Biden (who probably was only carrying out CIA/FBI "criminal" work in Ukraine/China/Iraq etc).  It was the NY FBI office that put pressure on Comey, to re-review the mail server/Weiner laptop the week before the election, which turned the election around.  NY FBI reportedly was disgusted by what was on the Weiner laptop, which is still secret.  It was a very near thing in 2016, Deep State-wise.
