And if he does win the next four years, folks will need to deal with that. They will also need to deal with the further disintegration of the US and the position of the President and all that goes along with it

Hats, stupid jackets and flags... thought it all very strange. No reflection of America as a whole, but an indication to me that this is not over until the fat lady sings.

Biden may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it would be nice to not spend the next four years trying to figure out the direction the US is going to take from Twitter.

Pretty appalling choice overall. Surely the Democrats could put forward a more energetic, charismatic candidate than this? If they had the result would be beyond doubt.

ThunbergsAreGo wrote: » Thanks, but no need (there are so many election threads!!!) It's hard to judge if younger voters voting early means not votes or just early votes. You would think younger means more anti than pro Trump

I do think it's funny that one of your reasons for supporting Trump is the things he's done for the black community, implying that you yourself approve of the resurgence of white supremacist groups in the era of Trump, as that's been the main thing he's done in that area (along with dying disproportionate to other ethnic groups due to his cack handed approach to Covid, 1000 deaths a day and idiot Trump calling for everything to reopen). You never got back about whether you think Trump is managing the virus well since he hosted a super spreader event in the white house, but I'm not surprised about that.

Silentcorner wrote: » You don't think the Democratic Party is concerned about Trumps approval rating in the black community less than two weeks to an election? Do you really believe that? I don't believe for one second Trump is a white supremacist I think it is the act of a desperate Party (with the support of the media establishment) who are throwing every slur they can at a President because that is all they can do they have nothing else. If his approval rating within the black community is anything to go by, black people aren't buying it either. The implications of losing more than 15% of the black vote for the Democratic Party is long reaching and dire. If I remember correct, I said that the Republican Party and Trump campaign team whilst running a risk holding rallies etc would surely have mitigated that risk...this corona virus is turning out to be no worse than a bad flu season...it hasn't done him any harm.
