Donald Trump

Probably going to be another 10 - 15 Million on top of that number come November. Truly unbelievable. I'm not keen on Biden and if he runs he's absolute toast as I think Harris will be too. It just looks like the Dems have no one. Beggars belief that folk actually want him to be like Victor Orban or even Putin and run the country with an Iron Fist.

I can’t see any way Trump gets to 85M votes, but I share the Biden despair. Spent the morning reading the NYT and reviewing a few recent opinion pieces. Dowd, Carville and even George Clooney have written eloquently on where we are and what we need.

Trump has, quite correctly, stayed out of the public eye to let Biden swing in the wind, knowing that the upcoming RNC in Milwaukee and his VP pick will only serve to give him another bump in the polls, as every Convention does.

Meanwhile, in Chicago, the local leadership is busy trying to deny picketing permits from the Friends of Lebanon and tidy up and block off the streets around the west side, where the United Center is located!

I don’t wish ill on anyone, but if Biden doesn’t come to his senses and drop out for the good of the country and his own personal legacy, then I hope the gods do intervene before it’s too late.

I’m not the billionaire class that would love Trump to become Supreme Leader, but just an hourly worker who is looking to have a decent retirement in 4 years. The last thing I need is for Trump to blow up this country right before I’m supposed to enjoy my golden years!!! I don’t want to be forced to leave the f’ing country, but if I do, I won’t look back!

Carville has a great idea. 4 town halls, with 8 potential nominees (2 at each), hosted by Bill Clinton & Barack Obama. Each host gets to ask each candidate 10 questions and they have 3 minutes to answer the questions WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ANY OTHER CANDIDATE.

It would not be debates, it would be an opportunity for “compare and contrast” of 8 candidates. Then, at the Convention, delegates would all be released to cast their votes based on input from their constituencies. The top 2 delegate counts would be the ticket, unless someone decided they didn’t want VP, then it drops to next vote getter.

The 4 town halls could be the week before the Convention (Mon-Thurs) and could be hosted by MSNBC, the recognized liberal news channel.

Sorted.

In America, we have about 70,000,000 voters who have reality and truth on “Ignore” and look where that has got us!

On the flip side, those 70M odd voters maybe got that way by having an open mind to conspiracy theories, nonsense, and ad hominem. :-)
