    You do realise we don't have those channels right?

    Just like Trumps pressers we can watch the debates live and see for ourselves.

    There's nothing likeable about Biden.
    Watch him choose a black woman as running mate to hit those demographics.

    As opposed to picking a fundamentalist white man running mate to hit those demographics. There is also nothing likeable about Trump so I think our posts probably cancel each other out?

    Oh, I'm sure you can. But the normal progression is for the DNC to develop some spin which is then is turned into marching orders funneled to MSNBC and CNN for their commentary, and then the remainder of the mainstream media dutifully runs with the same prattle, often not even bothering to change the wording, and then defended here.

    No, as opposed to picking the best person for the job, irrespective of race, gender or sexual orientation.

    No matter what you think about Trump's policies, at least we know he's capable of handling the job. When I say "handling" I mean "not collapsing under the strain of what's regarded as one of the most highly stressful and scrutinised jobs in history".

    Biden looks like he's on the verge of collapse only campaigning for that job. This isn't ageism. The guy's old, tired and obviously in cognitive decline. Yes, he's only a few years older than Trump but not everybody ages at the same rate. Trump is sharper than Biden and it's gonna be obvious once they're both on a debate stage.

    Look at pictures of Obama both before and after leaving office. THAT JOB AGES YOU. Then look at a picture of Biden and ask yourself "How much of this guy is gonna be left after four years let alone eight?"

    Vice President. He really shined and showed his stuff leading the charge against the pandemic. If Biden were president we'd most likely be looking at over 1,200,000 coronavirus deaths instead of 120,000.

    Well, that's surprising. Joe Biden's handlers have announced they plan to go ahead with the 3 presidential debates agreed to before the pandemic. Here I thought they would weasel out of the debates, putting blame on the coronavirus (so the public didn’t see how terrible the candidate has become) if they're not guaranteed debate moderators committed to destroying Trump and giving Biden softball questions. I'm guessing now they feel either Joe can't hide out cowering in his basement bunker forever while the country marches on, or they're ultra confident the biased mainstream media will declare Biden winner of every debate no matter how bad a shellacking he gets. I'm putting my money on the latter... and stocking up on popcorn.

    Biden is not holding rallies because of the pandemic. That little thing, you may of heard about it, that's killing people. Trump on the other hand holds a large (ish) rally with thousands of people congregated together with no social distancing and very few face masks being worn. How many will die because of his rally spreading the virus. Not to mention the abysmal response to the pandemic. He dosent give a **** about people.

    Yup! The biased mainstream media and their polls have the guy in the top image projected to win in a landslide...

    so biden is avoiding the spread of a virus that has already caused the deaths of 120,000 and trump is doing his best to kill as many of his supporters as he can. and somehow you think trump is doing the right thing.

    I provide basis for my beliefs. Biden's statements that he wouldn't have protected the US from people coming into the country from areas around the wold being ravaged by the coronavirus, for one. No basis usually comes from those committed to hatred for Trump, IMO.

    Except Biden wasn't holding a rally and hadn't boasted about a million people wanting to go. The embarrassing fly over and deconstruction of the "overflow" area really must have been a blow to Trumps fragile ego.

    trump wanted to stop foreigners coming into the country. he had no problem with americans coming back who may be infected. they didnt even test people who returned. do you think only foreign people can carry the virus?

    Awfully spacious bunker.

    Speaking of bunkers did you know Trump hid in his because he was afraid of some unarmed protesters with water bottles? Can’t make this up - even threw the press out of the whites house last night even because he was that afraid of protests outside. Obviously he didn’t want the press corps to find out he was going to be sleeping in the bunker last night I’d bet

    Maybe I’ll go live as some hermit in the Alaskan wilderness so you can vote for me to be president because I’m qualified by observing sensible social distancing... And screw the rest of the country, let them fend for themselves.

    Biden isnt running the country. Holding a mass rally with the potential to infect thousands is not running the country.

    It appears very, very few people were interested in hearing what Biden had to say for whatever type event that was.

    Joe Biden does want to run the country, though... obviously from behind and cowering in his underground bunker.
