Re: U.S Election 2020

Biden's a bit too creepy and 'hands on' for my liking.

Is that the best the US has to offer, 2 people that aren't mentally all there to run the country. Crazy place...

Then more fool you. You’ve clearly not done your research at all, just boringly jump on the Trump derangement bandwagon. Biden is in such a far left party, that does nothing for the Americans, he claims credit for stuff he was never part of, Trump does same.

The issue in America isn’t the presidency, it’s congress, the constant stale mating between each party prevents the actual job of one of the branches of government. Just recently, Republicans wanted to issue more money to every American, the pathetic Democrats voted it down, you got idiotic and drunken looking Pelosi parading in her multi million dollar mansion, showing her large buckets of Ice cream collection, while in her own district, becomes a complete shit hole.

But we’ve got used to Trump over last four years. He reacts more, says daft things and I’d rather have who we already know, Biden has serious cognitive issues. Gaff after gaff, he’s the biggest gift to Trump’s second term. The polls mean jack shit to me, given they said Crooked Hillary was going to win.

Re: U.S Election 2020

Mick's highlighted some structural problems with the US consttiution which are interesting. But the correction of fake news is hitting Trump where it hurts, in social media and Covid-19 has been mishandled from the top.
I think this is why pollsters who correctly predicted Trump's victory in the last election are now predicting that Biden will win. Personally, I would have liked to have seen a younger candidate but I think Biden will be less disruptive to world trade and security though as Mick says, Trump is the devil you know, albeit an unpredictable one.

Don't care! Trump is more of a liability for the world.

Thanks for confirming that you do not care about the increasing homelessness in the Democrat run areas and you want a Senile Democrat President, what a joke.

Quote:
That said, data from the Department of Housing and Urban Development show that homelessness is, in fact, more prevalent in states that voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016. What’s more, states that voted for Trump — and, therefore, are often led by Republicans — have seen larger drops in their homeless populations.
And this was from the WashingtonPost!!!

https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...-homelessness/

Then again Maggy, you wanted a Corbyn led government, so I'll pass on your judgement about what you think would pass for good leadership qualities, you were quite happy to bring in socialism in this country and totally ruin it, go look up Venezuela and do some research for gods sake.

Trump, is not more of a liability than Biden would be, so you are completely wrong Maggy. Go look at the record of Biden over the last decades, go look at Democrat run cities, before you pipe up about who would be worse. You're absolutely in the TDS group for sure. I mean I've totally agreed that Trump says the most stupidest of things but I do not have a complete hatred for someone as deep as yours goes for Trump, so much so that you would prefer someone far worse than Trump would be as president, which is totally the wrong attitude to have.

Btw, Biden lied in this interview, he has said before today that he has daily cognitive tests and would have tests and now he saying why the hell does he need to have a test.

Re: U.S Election 2020

The debates are going to be worth watching! Personally I don't think Biden was the best choice for the Dems.

Re: U.S Election 2020

Given the choice between those two, I'd guess a one way ticket to Venezuela is a decent option

How is a stumbling and seemingly forgetful Biden a damn sight better Den?

Yet again, it's the usual Trump man bad, with a ignorant attitude of anyone would be better than Trump, you have absolutely no idea how bad Biden would be because you've clearly done no research in to Biden's past. Go look up his past record as a Senator and then come back to me and tell me how he would be better as president, absolutely nothing stands out to what Biden has done in 40 years in Washington that's made any real difference...??

Lets see bits of the controversial stuff:-

  • Biden opposed school busing for desegregation in the 1970s.
  • He voted for a measure aimed at outlawing gay marriage in the 1990s.
  • He backed crime legislation that many blamed for helping fuel an explosion in prison populations.
  • He eulogized Sen. Strom Thurmond (someone totally against civil rights), who rose to prominence as a segregationist.
  • Biden backed the Iraq war.

So you have BLM and the hard left ripping down Statues of former presidents which owned slaves, yet they seem to want to settle with Biden with historical traits which seem to match the very people BLM now oppose. Go figure.

Well today, make this gaff number 2454784547874547856985478547:

Biden's said today "Unlike the African American Community ... the Latino Community Is an Incredibly Diverse Community."

And yes, holy shit he said that.
