Maybe they plan to build a wall, have Mexico pay for the wall, repeal and replace the ACA, rebuild national infrastructure, prosecute Hillary Clinton, ditch NATO, and label China a currency manipulator. And then do none of those things. Now that would be sleight of hand. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted August 22, 2020 Author Share Posted August 22, 2020 Good point: Did anyone notice that President Trump’s impeachment ‘didn’t even warrant a mention’ at the Democratic convention? We told you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine that after 12 years, you're still recycling the same message and have nothing new to offer to your country on the night you accept the nomination other than an old speech. You can get away with this when you know your base is incapable of independent thought. So embarrassing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted August 23, 2020 Author Share Posted August 23, 2020 Five ways the Democrat convention backfired on Joe Biden, benefitting Donald Trump by Monica Showalter Original Article Has President Trump just eaten Joe Biden's lunch? Sure looks that way based on multiple indicators flashing pro-Trump signals in the wake of the Democratic National Convention. Sure, the leftist press is reporting that Biden's favorability numbers have notched up in the wake of his curiously gaffe-less convention speech, but it's thin gruel. Fact is, that's the only thing they have. But if you look mostly on the right column of the front page of RealClearPolitics, it's pretty clear the trend is President Trump's friend. Apparently the artifice and over-processed convention infomercial, with its many technical sleights of hand (see here and here), didn't fool the voters.

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 ...so here's my two cent take on the Biden candidacy......reminiscent of the GOP offering up Dole and McCain (not taking away from their war hero status but immaterial to be Commander in Chief IMO)....ALL three are well beyond their political effectiveness prime....FAR too long as career politicians and out of touch with today's climate.....40+ year now stale political careers......Biden is probably the most noted for gaffes, corruption, affiliations et al......at the same time and sadly, potential up and coming, viable, potentially "make a difference" candidates shy away because if the DIRTIER nature, hatred, vitriol and foment of politics.....can anyone blame them?......hell, forcible touching in the 2nd grade could be a disqualifier......we're screwed..............
