Trump is a good self-promoter though and some will believe it. Guys that own businesses are likely enjoying the Trump tax cuts for the wealthy. I'm sure they're speaking glowingly of him.

On a daily basis they could discuss at length how he seems unable to form a thoughtful response, instead they focus on one soundbite from an incoherent word vomit he provides. The headlines on a daily basis are 'Trump says X horrible new thing', not 'Trump shows further signs of mental decline'. They didn't do the latter for 6 years, you can't expect them to start doing it for Biden.

I am far more critical of the Obama Administration than I was, he did very little for those ordinary Americans, the people who elected him....he is absolutely responsible for the College Debt Crisis which is affecting both young women and young African Americans....$1.7 Trillion at last count, the man should be shunned by young people. The Opiod crisis is a creation of both Democratic and Republican parties, have a look at a few of the online documentaries about it, it has destroyed a huge amount of middle american cities. We were told that the sky would fall in if Trump got elected, if the economy is anything to go by, the fact that he hasn't gone to war with anyone, one could argue he is bringing much needed stability to a country that was going way off track. I don't believe for a second that Trump is some genius, I think the solutions were just that easy it took a political outsider to affect change.

Boggles wrote: » Stern basically just goes around interviewing racist nutters and lets them rant and rave unchallenged. It's a terrible documentary, I haven't seen the other one. If they are being called racist homophones the chances are that is because they are, but they aren't the reason Trump won the general election, they are the main reason he won the nomination though, and by God did he pander to them. Republicans will vote Republican and Democrats will vote Democrats even if they put up a shít on a stick for the GE. The reasons Trump won are far more complex, it's probably easier to look at the reasons why Clinton didn't win and her failings. The reality is the next President will either be Trump, Sanders or Biden. Candidates all over 70. America is going backwards, both parties badly need an injection of actual talent based on ability and not likeability if the country is to move forward and fix it's glaring societal problems. TBF to Sanders he is actual a good person, and he believes what he wants to do, but his plans will go nowhere.

I can only tell you what I hear from guys operating on the ground they tell me a different story.
Foxtrol wrote: » I live in the states and I don't see any noticeable 'surge' of anything like there was during the Obama years coming out of the economic crisis. There has been steady growth but I don't see it being felt at the middle or bottom much more than the later Obama years, definitely nothing like 'a surge'. All the issues you've highlighted, like the Opiod crisis and college debt, are as bad as ever and healthcare has gotten even worse. Admittedly the economy was doing well enough that I felt moderates/middle class wouldn't risk a vote for Bernie. Now with COVID-19 it is hard to know where it'll be by November

You are tripping over yourself mate, read the posts again.All of the illegals enter illegally....either by deception or by illegal crossing a border and enough illegals cross that border to make it a problem Obama deported a s##tload of them....both are illegal.

Boggles wrote: » No they don't. The majority enter the country legally and are overstays. How does a "big beautiful wall" stop that? Yes.Cuba acknowledges 'vestiges' of racism, launches program to fight it See your problem is, and it's a pretty obvious problem with your average Trump fan is, on one hand they call all media toxic and on the other they champion a pathological liar. It's beyond bizarre.
Silentcorner wrote: » Ha ha haaaa... So do you not think then that the Americans should build a wall to stop those very racists entering their country illegally and if so is that racist? How can I be a Trump fan, I don't get to vote in American Elections, I have no skin in that game....I just no longer buy into the hysteria surrounding Trump....that is a BIG difference.... You are buying to hysteria....I am not....what is bizarre is this obsession with Trump you and many like you can't let go...I'm sure you can rattle off a large number of the recorded lies he has told in office, or two dozen other incidents, the outlets feeding you this depend on you maintaining this obsession!!!!!

Telling the lies about crowd sizes is one thing, but when he starts bullshítting about a potential epidemic that's quite another, so in fact it does matter. Whether you care or not doesn't matter. And just because you are Irish doesn't mean your opinion doesn't have value, there is only 2 Americans actively participating on this thread AFAIK.

At a recent rally Joe Biden, on camera, said the following…"If you want a nominee who will bring this party together, who will run a progressive, positive campaign, and turn, turn this primary from a campaign that's about negative attacks into one that's about what we're for -- because we cannot get -- re-elect -- we cannot win this re-election -- excuse me. We can only re-elect Donald Trump..." Of course Trump, who never misses an opportunity, took a dig at his political rival and tweeted... Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrumpI agree with Joe! And with that the democrat’s media handmaidens heads collectively exploded. Complaining how the Donald took poor old Joe’s words out of context. And went into overdrive to analyze Biden’s entire speech and explain, ad nauseum, what he meant. Did Trump take use Biden's words out of context... of course. But it was done to make a display of the greater issue... that it’s just another example indicative of Biden’s competency defects. And let’s not kid ourselves... If Trump said something like this democrats would have capitalized on it in a heartbeat, already made numerous political ads, and used it for seeking campaign donations. It will made for a great Trump 2020 ad campaign, dontcha think?

But it wasn’t ‘manipulated media.” Biden did actually say those words! The only thing missing was the latter part of the sentence. Does anyone with half a brain not know Biden doesn’t want Trump reelected? It was humor from Trump! Your remember humor, don't you? Sadly, it it is a rare commodity from snowflakes in the age of Trump. But oddly on Sunday the Biden actually did tweet a manipulated video of Trump to make it appear as though he said multiple things that he didn't actually say. But Twitter ignored it. There is no question Twitter is biased against Trump and in support Biden. You'd have to be brain-dead not to see it.
