2020 General Presidential Election Thread

[Uncle Ted]

How do you think this criticism reads coming from an ardent Trump defender?

With a lot less stuttering and at a higher baud rate.

The only thing Trump loves 10% as much as himself is the Dow Jones. Understand that, and you get insight into his initial response to COVID-19

I understand you don’t like Trump. What should his government have done differently that was (1) legal and (2) possible that would have made a difference?

[SeattleUte]

The Dow Jones seems to have had Covid in perspective.

You’re just spouting generalizations that are worthless to anyone, and emoting to boot. This isn’t helpful.

Here are some facts. New York/New Jersey, run by democrats, have by far the worst deaths per million, and will end up that way. The entire US is better than most of Northern Europe.

Is that because they were the tip of the spear in learning to treat covid (as JIC has explained), or is it because they are asshole Democrats? On pins and needles waiting for your answer.

[Commando]

These kinds of generalizations are just gobbldeygook. Wheat specifically should have been done that wasn’t? Historians have written books on how the government could have prevented Pearl Harbor with a lot of specificas. Can you give us something like that?

Don't you find it odd that about every other country the world over was able to mount a coherent response and do a wildly better job than the U.S.? Why are you acting baffled and keeping a straight face when the X factor is peeing on our legs.

The Dow Jones seems to be rejecting all that fear porn you have been feeding us about the long-term impacts of the lockdown.

Because Grandpa Joe mumbled about it and criticized Drumpf the day he imposed travel restrictions to China...

Then all the other Dem sheep followed and started using the word too.

BTW, can they just get someone to read Biden's speech for him? He is painful to listen to.

Gee, do you think the talk about his xenophobia stemmed from the travel restrictions, or from Trump's penchant for championing bigotry? He has some pretty cool names for covid that have really caught fire. :thumbsup:

Unlike you, I’m not really partisan here. I think that if we’re going to play the blame game with politicians, NY/NJ politicians deserved plenty. What I would like is for this politicizing stop. First impeachment, then Covid.

Same way your criticisms of Trump read coming from an ardent Trump hater.

That's not nice, you know. I don't mind bringing up Trump's neurosyphilis because he's such an asshole. But attacking Joe's stutter?

Are you talking about Korea and Japan? Because Europe, which is a more valid comparison in terms of the science as well as culture and politics, didin’t.

The Dow Jones has rallied because lockdowns have ended and it’s become clear it’s not possible to bring them back.

So they weren't silent and weren't a majority in 2016. So are you saying they will be even more silent and more not a majority in 2020?

[Commando]

Same way your criticisms of Trump read coming from an ardent Trump hater.

Oh you mean pointing out that Trump can't pronounce the fucking word "Yosemite" (he'd obviously either never heard of the park or had never seen that word in print-- I highly suspect both) and then his supporters start nit picking if Joe gets behind the wave a bit catching up to the teleprompter? Because that's what I was getting at.

I have opined extensively on this, often to much irritation to some here. A simple and quick review will provide you the obvious answers to your questions.
