U.S Election 2020
Thread for the U.S Election 2020.
This is the thread to talk about the candidates, the election, polling and the aftermath of President-Elect Kayne West's shock 50 state sweep. The election is on November 3, 2020. Trump is the Republican Nominee and Biden is the presumptive Democratic Nominee. The current state of the polling is here: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/ep...iden-6247.html |
Re: U.S Election 2020
The risk for the Democrats is that they will fall back on smug complacency, as they are wont to do when faced with an opponent they assume everyone can see is unsuitable for the presidency. Al Gore v George Bush is a relatively recent example.

We've been here before so we're treating polls with skepticism. But Biden is ahead of where Clinton was in national polling but also even further ahead of her in the swing state polling. If it wasn't for the example of 2016 people would be calling it now. Biden will hopefully not make the same mistakes as Clinton and visit the industral states. He is more popular in Michigan because of his assoication with the auto-bailout in 2008. ---------- Post added at 11:42 ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 ---------- Quote:

And Biden now becoming the official Democrat Nominee, he will be in the Televised Presidential debates, head-to-head with Trump, there is usually 3 debates. Each one is going to be serious prime time tv around the world!
Especially when the hostilities between them have been quite severe... Biden once said he'd have been the type to Punch the bully boy Trump, behind the sports hall. Trump came back with the infamous rebuttal.... https://www.cableforum.uk/board/atta...1&d=1594205999 |
Re: U.S Election 2020
If it was a proper fight, I'd have money on a Trump win with a knockout 2cnd round.
Pity it's just peacock posturing, a promoter could make a fortune |

Re: U.S Election 2020
To be honest, I think most Americans have a screw loose.
I don't have a problem with the concept of complete nutters trying to enter politics (monster raving loony party lol), but when those nutters seriously expect to win and are considered a genuine choice by the people and media. . . . yeah, ok :shocked: |
Re: U.S Election 2020
The Presidency is odd because you don't have all the hassle a Prime Minister has in working your way up through a party structure. I prefer our system as no PM can get to that position without getting selected by a local party or the party establishment to become an MP (decent chance of a nutter getting though), getting selected by the Parliamentary Party (low chance of a nutter getting though) and getting selected by the membership to lead the party (extremely high chance of a nutter).
If you have the money you can railroad the party establishment a lot easier in the United States although it's still hard. Trump is a rare exception. Obama wasn't the establishment choice at first but he wasn't unpopular with the DNC either. |

He had a new single/album out, this was obviously a publicity stunt.

Best thing Trump could do is fire himself, he's done it to everyone else. Maybe he might realise who the problem is...

Re: U.S Election 2020
Trailing in the polls is an hilarious line. He was trailing Hillary in 2016, yet he still won more States.
With Sleepy Joe Biden, making gaffe after gaffe, forgetting his words nearly every sentence. Trump should easily walk himself back in to victory. |
