2020 Presidential Election thread

Look fat, you dog faced pony soldiers:

Biden might just win the election because of the Boomers, who are the most reliable voters. They identify with him because of the idea that the dem party is still the party of JFK.

Is Kanye still a thing?

I still don't know what to make of that Atlantic story.  Trump has said a few awful things about people who served, but that was almost purely political (i.e. McCain).  To me, he seems to otherwise sort of idolize the military.

Yet the Atlantic story was confirmed by multiple outlets, including Fox.  Of course, it's the typical "unnamed sources" we've become all too familiar with in fake news.  At the same time, I'm not sure how current Admin officials and Trump supporters refuting it are any more credible.  And John Bolton seems to say whatever John Bolton thinks will help John Bolton.

A lot of fake news stories about Trump are believable because, well, almost anything about Trump is believable.  But this is one thing I really can't picture him saying.  At best (worst?) it was a bad joke in poor taste, which I could see.

It’s like the Jussie Smollet story it doesn’t sound anything like trump would say it sounds exactly what a never trumper would think trump would say

Over/under on days (hours?) before the first Trump and Norway/Sweden election collusion conspiracies break?

That about sums up all the fake news stories about Trump the past 3.5 years - Trump haters swallow it hook, line and sinker because it's things haters think Trump would say or do.  I just saw another article today about Russia collusion saying, LOL, "it's still happening".

And, again, I've never understood why so much is made-up about Trump when there's more than enough verifiable shit he's said and done to be outraged over.

So now, Mr Integrity himself, Jeffrey Goldberg is walking back the claims from the Atlantic hit piece.  

Ptown and his leftist sources looks more and more like CC and Breitbart every day. 

On my way out of Cincinnati this morning there were a TON of cars with Trump flags and signs and shit all over their cars going both directions on I71.

The Trump "parade" around 275 was insane.  I was only on 275 for 2 miles and it was after the parade was over. I probably saw 100 cars with Trump flags.

OMG it's gonna be a landslide!!!!

Although I've not really heard Ohio being mentioned much.  I guess because polling is a toss-up right now it's just assumed Trump will probably win by 2-3 points.

Even though I favor the electoral college, it's clearly not perfect when candidates spend most of their time in the 11 states that decide the election.  But they do have to campaign in most states to even get the party nomination.

Oooohhhh!  The 'rona gonna get ya!!!

What is with the white circles?  I have seen press conferences in the White House rose garden with chairs placed in the grass spaced covid style with no such circles.  It serves the same purpose.

Perhaps it has the same mental purpose as white flags people place in their yards to keep their dogs within their boundries.

Biden just went off teleprompter with a totally incoherent and rambling story.  You could see him visibly struggling to remember what to say.

In other news, I think Trump tried to offer his signing pen as a gift to the UAE President, and he handed it back to Trump!
