OOTB's Political Thread . ..

"Join us!" And, do it fast, before he forgets.
LOL. Seriously though, there have to be some party officials worried about his health. I just don't see him being able to get through a debate with Trump. It's starting to look like Trump's real opponent is going to be the coronavirus.
 
I am seriously starting to think that there is some big time coups planned at the highest levels of the D party - to get all Biden’s opponents except Bernie to drop out AND endorse Biden.....
....then we see Hillary so prominent over the last few days, spruced up, praising Biden and shredding Bernie....

is the fix in that Biden is told to put Hillary on the ticket as VP, them if Biden wins - in very short order Biden is forced to step down due to perceived dementia - and there we are - madam president.

Or is this crazy conspiracy talk? I don’t know how people can trust the Clintons very far - even members in their own party. Look how she has savaged Bernie, Tulsi, etc. do whatever to get ahead. (Even if you think Hillary had nothing to do with Epstein).

Most dems wish she would just go away, so I don't think that's what is happening.

And, the economic troubles brewing. I dunno how bad it will get, or how fast, but it's coming.

well according to my mother in law satan used the godless Chinese to develop the virus to take down trump and ruin gods plan for America. And of course the evil media is more than happy to go along and blame trump and exaggerate the problem to help. “We all better be praying we outlaw abortion and homos getting married and using whatever bathrooms they want so god finds favor with the us once again.” (When we were in his favor I’m not sure)

had to listen to pearls of wisdom like this all weekend.

How old is this woman?
 
If you think this can't happen here, think again. American hospitals only have so many beds and most of them are already filled.

We should probably already be building makeshift hospitals. I don't know whether that's happening.

Sure it could. The difference here would be that we will be able to come up with solutions to address, whereas Italy seems to have adopted the death panel approach.

My guess is that a lot of the treatment is going to take place in retirement/nursing homes, because that's where the worst of it will be. In fact, we are talking about bringing my MIL to our house for a while if this starts to get bad.

I'm not sure what makes you think the U.S. is better equipped to deal with it than Italy, but I hope you're right. Italy has quarantined 16 million people in the north.
 
Wonderful. I'm sure she has some endearing qualities.

she makes good giblet gravy and owns a lot of land. She survived being shot in the head by her husband 50 yrs ago. He claimed it was an accident and got off. Prob didn’t hurt his uncle was the da and his brother a judge. She did lose sense of smell.

You'd think that a sense of smell would be important in order to make the gravy. That stuff is nasty to me no matter who makes it.
 
I dunno... Trump is in his element when it comes to having the stage and shoveling bullshit.
Yep. It's pretty well known that Biden is average, at best, in these things. The fact that he can't even remember who he is won't help him out. People are/were making fun of Trump's mental health, but it's obvious something is going on with Biden.

The thing about debates though is that they aren't about the issues. It's all about sound bites and memorable moments. Does anyone remember what Clinton said about Medicare in the debates? Nope. They do remember Trump hovering over her and his "wrong" sound bite that instantly became a gif. Those are the things he does well and that's what debates at that level are about.
 
He lost by 3 million votes.

I cringe when I see this. If he lost, he wouldn't be President.

It's a cute talking point I guess - but every time I see it, I think of someone trying to argue that we beat Nova in the championship that year, because we had 13 more rebounds. Unfortunately, the goal of the game is to get more points, just like the goal of the election is to get more electoral votes. Clinging to the popular vote count is sad and reeks of "but the rayuffs".

I wasn't talking about the election process, I was commenting that if he's the best ever at campaigning then how the hell did 3 million more people vote for one of the least likable people ever.

I never watch the debates.

If things stay on their present course, Sanders might very well win. Between the virus, now this this oil war, the stock market crash, and whatever economic downturn we start to experience from all of these factors, between now and November, I don't see Trump winning this at all.

It’s all just trolling. Nobody actually believes he’s the best at anything. But if it gets a reaction then #winning

you wouldn’t be interested in a small wager, would you?
 
That press conference was funny.

Pence's solution to the coronavirus is to praise Donald Trump. Also, looks like they gave Donald the ole muzzle today.
