2020 US Presidential Election (aka: The Trump Coronation)

notobtuse

With Nancy Pelosi’s Schiff Show Sham of an impeachment over (well, all but over, anyway) time to turn to the US presidential election.

So, who is left:

Donald Trump (R): You wanted change, you got change... Trump change!

Joe Biden (D): Distracted by shiny objects!
Bernie Sanders (I - running as a D, what's up with that?): On a scale of Mao to Stalin, how bad would a president Bernie be?
Elizabeth Warren (D): Little Chief Gonna Spend A Lot.
Mayor Pete Buttigieg (D): Portrait of a young bull$hit artist.
Andrew Yang : Vote for me and I’ll give you $12,000.
Mike Bloomberg (?): Who says you can’t buy an election?
Tulsi Gabbard (D): I guess it’s true you never piss off the Clintons.
Amy Klobuchar (D) and the rest of the also-rans: Who?

And then there’s Hillary Clinton (Witch), waiting in the wings for a contested convention so her superdelegates buddies can hand her the nomination: Liar, liar, pantsuit on fire!

Personally, when Pelosi, who had to impeach Trump immediately because he was such a threat to the nation, and then waited a month to walk the articles of impeachment in a stupid procession over to the Senate... it was like she was walking with Trump’s reelection papers.

I find it a bit mad that a rabid Republican is posting 24/7 on an Irish discussion board about Trump

I have both US and Irish citizenship.

Anyway, I find it more interesting here debating US politics were it’s something like 6 against 1... I consider that pretty much a fair fight. I do have a home-field advantage, you know.

Whatever floats your boat I guess :rolleyes: :cool:

I don't know if I would call it an advantage. It's hard to read neutral news/reports and make up your own mind in the USA.

Not many on these boards are registered Democrats or Republicans.

I reckon that poster (notobtuse) is the only poster on this thread that has a vote in the US. He/She is literally trying to convince him/herself

Floats my boat? Maybe I'll start posting in Arts and Entertainment. How's your blood pressure?

We don't have neutral news/reports in the US.

I'm sure that's true but there sure are enough on these boards that have strong opinions on US politics and like to express them.

Nope, just presenting divergent opinion and information that often goes against the groupthink.

Reuters is considered Center bias here with just a slight leaning to the Left. But isn't Reuters an international entity? And I must admit I don't see many articles coming through my feeds from Reuters. Many from both domestic Left and Right news agencies but not much from Reuters.

‘Obama mad’… Freudian slip?

He hasn't. That doesn't stop strategists and people from discussing it as a viable option.

So you're spouting opinions and making them look news worthy?

Weren't you cribbing about not being able to separate a news story from an opinion piece?

Well then you should perhaps stick to only centre channels and see what happens

I've never claimed to be a news journalist. Do I look like one? Most every bit of news here is a mixture of news and opinion. It has become hard to distinguish regardless what the title might say.

I'd like to agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

I get much of my reading news from realclearpolitics.com as they often give a variety of articles on the same subject from Left, Right and somewhat Center. If I had to stick to center TV channels for the news that would limit me to CSPAN.

When did an opinion become a "report", or did you just jump the gun on this? As we you've said now, it's only an opinion from a republican strategist.

The lunacy that comes from your posts about the Dems/biden/senile/Cuomo/Clinton/Obama etc is just that, lunacy. All opinions from you're media handmaiden's. Some would call it conspiracy theories, I've said previously, I find that the hand ringing you're doing around the Ms Reade sexual assault is all on the media being quite, if the Dems were as desperate as the conspiracy theories you regurgitate from your media circle proport them to be, why aren't they jumping on this to get Biden out of the way, it's prefect cover to conspire against uncle Joe.

I think the majority of the world as I hope the majority of America now see Trump for what he is, a self serving imbecile. A mistake that Americans need to rectify.

But I think a previous poster got it right, you are very much trying to convince yourself not anyone else.

It's a fúcking train crash reading your posts.

Oh, I'll be voting Trump again. No convincing necessary. And odd, but you call it a train crash, yet seem drawn like a bee to pollen. Must either be my golden aura or the enlightenment of learning new things.

I haven't learnt an iota from any of your posts. If anything it has confirmed what I knew already I.e. there are some seriously Trump obsessed Republicans in the US.

Imagine being obsessed with a self serving megalomaniac idiot.

It's quite sad really

In all seriousness, know a couple of people affected by lupus and arthritis who were prescribed hydroxychloroquine to treat. They're currently waiting 3 weeks for a resupply of it as there's currently shortages as a result of stupid statements from Trump. I deal with a chronic illness myself and being without meds is terrifying tbh.
