It's because Biden is that bad, Trump should be dead and buried according to many people but they were probably the same people that were laughing when they were asked if he would in 2016.

I would say it more shows that a portion of the US audience have a taste for dramatic showmanship and even though many are potentially aware that Trump is lying, they simply don't care. That says a lot about certain parts of US society and none of it is positive.

Is this it now? It’s only 200,000 people! This is an unexpected spin I have to say.

Trump himself set the precedent

"Yes, people are dying, It is what it is"

Donald J Trump.

It was for 3,000 or so people. That's 0.001% of the population in case you were wondering.

Bizzarre how they make a big song and dance about it every year when the anniversary rolls around

That is part of the problem though the ridiculing that some Trump supporters get does not help in trying to convince them why they should vote for Biden over Trump. It's basically fvck you if you're voting for Trump and you're human garbage.

It's not going to stop at 200k. Their current trajectory is about 30k deaths per month in a fairly straight line. Outside of dysfunctional, poor countries, nobody's doing that badly.

Kidchameleon · 22-09-2020 9:24pm

I see Mitt Romney is going to be backing Trump's supreme court nominee. Does this mean Barrett is all but guaranteed the job? I'm assuming she's going to be his pick but the official announcement will be on Saturday, cant wait!

2 people died of Ebola in the the US and Trump called for Obama to resign.

4 people died in Benghazi and the Republicans conducted 6 investigations and found nothing.

But I guess 200,000 dead is just one of those things.

I don't want to get into a Covid debate here because we probably will not agree no matter what but what I will say is this: take a look at some of the countries with higher deaths per 1m population to the USA, hardly poor or dysfunctional are they? I genuinely think Covid is not as big an election issue as people here are making it out to be.

That's not to say that it is not a serious problem, it is and I believe every death is a tragedy.

Right now per capita the US is 10th worst in the world but given how badly they are doing vis a v the countries worse then them right now they will likely shoot up to about 5th worst within the next month.

Only San Marino, followed by Peru Belgium and Brazil are likely to be worse off in terms of deaths per capita by the end of October.

Which countries? And of those countries, how many of them were as forewarned as Trump's USA?

briany · 22-09-2020 9:42pm

Have to hand to Trump in that he knows the value of showmanship. Listening to Donie o' Sullivan on Eamon Dunphy's podcast and he was talking about the rallies - Trump's team was playing 'In the Air Tonight' over the PA as Airforce One was flying in to land, and nearly had it timed to the point that Trump hits the stage right as that famous drum pattern comes in.

Democrats and Republicans = Americans.

They don't care about the loss of life. American culture is about every man for themselves.

By the end of October the only countries that are not poor or "dysfunctional" that will have worse death tolls per capita then the US will be San Marino and Belgium that is it end of story. San Marino is a tiny country with a tiny population so really Belgium that's it and at the rate the US is projected to continue to see deaths through the end of the year as against Belgium the Americans may even overtake them too in a few months.

No it’s not at all, a minority have that attitude. Life is cheap alright but they do care. They care a lot, from the outside it might look that way because of they’re idiotic love of guns but they care about family and friends just like everyone else.

Their unwillingness to create a welfare state and universal healthcare suggests they really don't care about anyone other than themselves.

Their history and culture backs this up.

I knew from day one that Americans, all Americans, wouldn't be bothered by the loss of life.

People who think otherwise are deluding themselves about America.

have you actually watched any of the clips of trump speaking? rambling and incoherent are the words that spring to mind. did you watch the two town halls? biden was able to answer coherently. from trumps replies you couldn't work out what the question was.

Trump has genuine comic timing and ability to come up with zingers on the fly. He destroyed about 20 republicans one by one in 2016. He shouldn't be a good debater but he often is. Biden does not pose a threat.

Coming out with weird insults or name calling is not debating. Biden on the other hand has an incredibly good reputation for his ability on this front and I can't see Trump standing much of a chance. Particularly since Trump has a reputation of bullying the press for just asking questions, he basically is the antithesis of leadership.

Just how many press conferences has Trump walked off in a huff because he couldn't answer basic questions? How many times has his syphilitic drug addled brain glitched while attempting to deliver any sort of coherent message? Trump is a third rate conman who is lucky his his core supporters are just dumb enough to fall for his grift. He doesn't really even have to try that hard for them. When he crashes and burns during the debates his core won't see it in that light. It will either be another glorious victory for the leader or the disaster will be down to those underhanded commie democrats giving Biden the answers.

Why did House Dems agree to fund this government? Honest question. Just got an alert about it and frankly, I'm baffled given the politics (the nicest word to use for it) around the SCOTUS vacancy?

I'd imagine so as to not give Trump the rallying cry of 'they want to stop government' which, bizarrely, is what a lot of conservatives would want but those guys are already voting Trump.

Maybe the Dems figured it wouldn't play well with borderline voters. Maybe someone else has more insight.

Joe the homewrecker

Joe Biden and his wife Jill had an affair that broke up her first marriage, her ex-husband told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview.

Bill Stevenson says that their story about how the presidential candidate fell in love with Jill after a blind date is made up.

Debates will be epic

Fact check: Trump campaign posts another dishonestly snipped Biden quote to make him sound confused

So it's another edited video. Were you aware of that when you posted it? Did you even bother to check ?I don't hold out much hope of you replying to this based on past precedent, to be honest....

According to an article in the New York Post............

What we do know beyond a doubt, Trump paid off a porn star so that she wouldn't reveal details of his infidelity while his wife was pregnant.

The same man who said the following,

Trump: "Yeah that's her with the gold. I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful... I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything."

Bush: "Whatever you want."

Trump: "Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything."
