Popular Post Cryingdick Posted April 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) So Biden has basically offered Bernie a cabinet post it seems to pay off his supporters. I love that Bernie supporters are too smart to buy this. I am amused by Biden giving a podcast each day about what his plans to tackle the virus are and open the economy. Does he realize he isn't in office? Biden has just as little sway on the outcome right now as all of us that post here. The election is in November and by then it's either sorted or too late.

Popular Post Chiphigh Posted April 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted April 14, 2020 On 4/10/2020 at 3:04 AM, Jingthing said: Biden comes as advertised, a decent left of center politician. I think both proposals are both good policy and good politics. The student loan thing is more of a Bernie issue, including Medicare at age 60 has more appeal to independents and accidental 45 supporters. But I assume that's only a buy in option which so many people won't be able to afford. The truth is in the USA that health care is tied to employment and if you lose your job at 60, the majority of people will have very few options. Sure people want much more but at least it's an improvement over 45's plans to totally trash Obamacare and replace it with nothing. I also assume this is kind of an opening position and Bernie will be pushing for some more and he'll probably get it. I think that because these proposals are very modest. It would help bring Bernie people along if he can help Biden move further. I am personally disappointed because I feel the virus situation has the USA primed for a real universal health care system as in Canada and UK more so than ever. But again at the end of the day and the end of the election, democratic policy statements don't really matter. It's a referendum on 45 and he is in the deep doo doo and he knows it. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-reason-trump-is-skeptical-of-mail-in-voting-because-hed-likely-lose/2020/04/09/0a4982f2-7a99-11ea-a130-df573469f094_story.html Beat him like a drum!

Agreed. True, Trump is the president. He will be the president 100% guaranteed for the next 7 months and after that until January. He will be the sitting president until then. Even after that he will refuse to leave. So the next election is likely to be 2024. Edited April 14, 2020 by Cryingdick 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Biden sits or sat on many boards with absolutely no other reason other than connection to his father the man running for president. Honest Joe Biden.

The fact is, there is a very large contingent of Americans who are literally consumed with hatred for Donald Trump. So it is always appropriate to point out. While foreigners are free to speak their mind and join in the hatred, we normal Americans generally don't care what foreigners think.

Whether a large "contingent of Americans are literally consumed with hatred" or not is not my point. Repeating the same phrase again and again is tedious, and a poor substitute for reasoned argument. Meanwhile to the basic topic, I would be very surprised if a significant proportion of the youth who supported Bernie this time would be stupid enough to vote for Trump, even those who out of idiotic misguided passion did last time, in their bitterness over Bernie's defeat. Biden is not Hilary. Cosy old uncle Joe may not be firing on all cylinders, but recent press conferences are suggesting that Trump is totally losing the plot. Time for the Trumpets to deny what they are seeing and hearing, blindingly obvious though it is.

You are under the false assumption that I have an obligation to echo your point. Very strange. No, it's not your point. It's part of mine. Furthermore, it's always good to point out hate, is it not? Why do you think such statements need to adhere to some arbitrary standard you came up with? As for the Bernie Bros, there are three basic types. First, there's the principled ones who won't vote for Biden. Second, there's the loyal Democrats who'll hold their nose and vote for Biden. And third, there's the bums who are too lazy to go out and vote anyway. As for Trump versus Biden regarding lucidity, I am happy to let the American people decide when they watch each of the candidates interact during the debate. Honest people who are paying attention know that doesn't bode well for Biden. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
