The King Of Swing Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Which is why I was they should still do it. Is there anyone outside of the base that don't see him as a complete disaster now? Anyone who doesn't see it at this stage probably never will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who doesn't see it at this stage probably never will. There are still people only now turning against him because of mishandling the pandemic, or because of sabotaging the postal service. Each new thing is a tipping point for somebody, no matter what they supported or turned a blind eye to before. The important thing is to keep resisting every step of the way. No one should roll over and accept fascism just because other people have. One day it'll be too late to disrupt and deter the machine, but as bad as things already are in the States, they haven't yet reached the point of no return. Even if there was no one else who could be persuaded to vote against Trump, it would still be worth making his life as difficult as possible for as long as possible.

dopper Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Things are heating up nicely with less than 11 weeks until the Election and both sides already taking digs at the other on a daily basis. I'm really looking forward to the debates between now and then where Trump & Biden will go face-to-face three times and Mike Pence vs Kamala Harris should be a lot of fun too. Tuesday 29th September Trump vs Biden Debate #1 in Cleveland (Trump won the Ohio vote in 2016 with 52%) Wednesday 7th October Pence vs Harris Debate in Salt Lake City (Trump won the Utah vote in 2016 with 45%) Thursday 15th October Trump vs Biden Debate #2 in Miami (Trump won the Florida vote in 2016 with 49%) Thursday 22nd October Trump vs Biden Debate #3 in Nashville (Trump easily won the Tennessee vote in 2016 with 61%) The election itself is 75 days from today on Tuesday 3rd November.

I quite enjoyed Obama's digs at Trump, knowing how much Obama gets under his skin and imagining how much he would have been seething. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) Trump's buddy Steve Bannon arrested for fraud. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-53853297 How long is the pardon list at this stage? Edit. Something a bit more light hearted. Edited August 20, 2020 by The King Of Swing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted August 20, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted August 20, 2020 I wouldn't get your hopes up for anything from the VP debate dopper. If you look up the word "Inconsequential" in the dictionary there it just says "See VP debate" No one is voting for the bottom of the ticket.

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted August 20, 2020 Moderators Share Posted August 20, 2020 Surely it depends on what he's hoping for? If he's just looking to be entertained why would he care if it's convincing people to vote one way or another... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted August 20, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted August 20, 2020 The trouble is chest that they are not even entertaining. Even when Palin was the VP nominee it was still dull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted August 20, 2020 Moderators Share Posted August 20, 2020 Oh you don't have to convince me.. I have no interest in watching them debate. I'm just saying the reason it will be shit tv is not because they're inconsequential. I don't think she's going to be that great a debater, and even if she is Pence is way too composed to slip up.

wordsfromlee Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 One thing I noticed today is that the average life expectancy in the USA is 78. Joe Biden turns 78 about two weeks after the election. What a weird country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a country whose population were convinced that a New York millionaire who frequently flaunts his wealth on TV is "one of them" and "outside the establishment". Prior to that, they were convinced that a rich, stupid Texan from a political dynasty was "folksy and homespun". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
