He certainly doesnt does he, Haha. Tbh I try and avoid the headline news when I can these days. I am more happy to form my own opinions from my own interest in things which is very easy to do these days rather than get fed the regurgitated doom laden media agenda. That said the last few months we have been subscribing to an excellent magazine called The Week which takes news articles from a very broad range of media outlets.Trump doesn't like tough questions.
Anyway, you should be happy the more time they devote to the US election the less airspace there is for the monumental cock up that is B****t ;-)
Endless coverage? What channel are you watching? Barely a week away but it is nowhere near pushing COVID off the top of the news. It is kind of important though don’t you think.
Agree with you about Biden though, hardly an inspiring choice. I don’t know enough about American politics or the democrats to understand how he won the nomination but America itself seems to be a pretty conservative country.
You just watch how many Republicans suddenly start worrying about the debt. They've been utterly f*cking silent on it for the last 4 years, but you bet the moment the Dem's suggest spending money on something they don't like they will all be wailing like banshee's about how the debt is spiralling.The GOP have got what they wanted out of him.
Trump has guaranteed a conservative supreme court.
If the polls still show he's getting kicked out of office they will all off a sudden grow a pair.
Watch republicans up for election start distancing themselves from him and endorsing Biden to save their own seats.
They'll happily force austerity on Biden in opposition whilst prepping a candidate who will be seen as detoxifying the party and a winner in 4 years.
Jim Carvell made the same point last night. Something along the lines of he was pissed off of their flipping that debt is good when it gives them a tax break, but if the house pass a bill that puts everyone's minimum wage up to a mandatory $15 an hour they start going all Scrooge and demanding the national debt is paid down.You just watch how many Republicans suddenly start worrying about the debt.

He seems a nice enough bloke but at his age, no matter how sprightly he is, he’s an old guy and it’s a demanding role. I much preferred Mayor Pete (though being gay, he’d have perhaps struggled in some states).
I like a great deal of what Sanders believes but again there’s an age/health thing (he had a heart attack in the last year) and then there’s a fact he’s branded a communist for believing in a living wage and for wanting universal healthcare so I wouldn’t have fancied his chances of turning indys and purple GoP supporters away from Trump as the campaign would have been one long scare/disinformation campaign against him.
The Dems are desperately in need of a Kennedy like figure.
Being shot in the head during the first term would dent anyone's progress.Kennedy, a man whos legend far outweighs his achievements? Now there's a topic lol!
Wasn’t shouting fake with his 96% - 4% win in the debate from some dubious source.He's going to be running round with his fingers in his ears screaming FAKE with the gaps being that big.
Ah but that was different, it's only fake if its not to his liking.Wasn’t shouting fake with his 96% - 4% win in the debate from some dubious source.
You could substitute Corbyn for Sanders and Labour for Dems in your last two paragraphs and it tells the story of the last UK election. Apart from the heart attack.He seems a nice enough bloke but at his age, no matter how sprightly he is, he’s an old guy and it’s a demanding role.
