What makes you like him more? The fact that he'd bring on a totally unqualified candidate, just to pander for votes, or him offending black people today?

Not qualified? Hmm, leaving alone he was VP for 8 years personally I'd be happy to see career politicians like Biden start taking back control of the government. I'm not going to say Trump and the Tea Party guys don't have some issues which are valid (or at least important to a lot of voters). However, if you compare their professed values with how they've run the government, they seem to have been in over their heads. I.e. the tea party guys voted to expand to add to the nations debt and despite Trumps total focus on the economy the economy tanked. I hope Biden, as an experienced politico, will do better.

As for why that comment makes me like him more? Well let's be honest, Joe's kinda boring and the PC police on the democratic side have been allowed to let happiness die. So it made me smile when I read Biden had said that...

So it sounds like this is more of an gut instinct thing for you; then the type of problem where one can point to actual examples of it having been a problem?

There are no examples. Dems are motivated to vote, but...the suppression program will likely result in a multi-million popular vote gap favoring Biden, but Michigan, PA, FA and WI (or at least a couple) won’t have big enough turnouts, so Trump gets the electoral college win.

Biden is up 12 points in the latest fox poll. Plus, I read that 60% don;t like the way t handled the Corona. We can all play Monday Quarterback. t's mistake was how he shut down America. He had no choice though. Dr F and all the experts told us we had too or 2,000,000 would die. The way one died scared the sh*t out of all of us. I remember all the fear in everyone's eyes. Plus, we were told everyone was dying in Spain and that Virus was on it's way to our shores and we would all die.

The estimates were 250,000-1.1mm. We shut down and we will end up with what, 150,000? And we all pray we don’t have to shut down again.
So the estimates were correct and people acted accordingly.
Of course, when it’s on our shores and the president, having previously shut down our pandemic response team, says “it’s 15 people and will soon be zero,” then you don’t have a timely national response and that lack of leadership obviously made this worse.
Why has CA done so well with this thing?

At the most basic level, a divided nations response is never going to equal the response of everyone working together.

Trump might have been right that he would win re-election if he kept putting money in everyone's pocket via a booming economy. But now that things have gone off the rails, I'm not sure all the name calling and talk about Americans as "us" and "them" is a luxury voters are going to indulge in this fall... which I think has to be seen as a major problem for the president.

But I'm not counting T out yet. Trump being Trump I can't imagine he's got the temperament to be a bridge builder even if he wanted to.
So by my thinking, he's going to have to find a new villain. He's much smarter then me about these things then I am... but my suggestions would be he starts a Clinton style military cost cutting program, and directs a lot of those funds that being spent in the middle east protecting oil which I've heard they are having trouble giving away. Or perhaps now is the time for Trump to turn on the Billionaires? Co-oping a major platform of the left wing I would think would put a lot of voters back into play.

It’s over for him if he turns on the billionaires. The super-rich are all over his cabinet and they’ve benefited handsomely from his policies. And they’re powerful...remember he attacked the hedge fund carried-interest rule and abandoned that quickly.

Personally I use Amazon so much I'm thinking of getting an Amazon credit card for the extra savings it would provide.
But if I was a Trump voter and lived in fly over country and Amazon was putting local stores out of business... I'd probably feel different about the company. Pretty soon, the talk of raising taxes to pay for whole mess is going to come up. And Trump is going to have to go looking for money. If I try and imagine I'm Trump looking for a money tree that will be favorable with the masses...

The same with RE-directing military funds from abroad back home. Trump has taken some big hits when it comes down to lowering our military profile. Turning that into a cost saving measure... is going to be a popular move with a lot of moderates. It's win-win to force the Saudi's and NATO to shoulder more of the burden. Sure there will be fallout, but by that time Trump will be long retired, so that's someone else's headache (yet Trump gets the benefit of the cost cutting with minimal political damage).

"offending black people"? Did he? All of them? Do you speak for "black people"? They might not all be as reactionary and thin skinned as you and your lord and savior the demagogue in chief trump.

No... I think saying "If you don't know whether you're voting for me or Trump, you ain't black" probably only offended a few black people. Dumbass.

If 8 years of being the VP made him qualified, Obama wouldn't have waited until WELL after he was the ONLY candidate to endorse him. The dipshit has already run for President and lost twice. And there's nothing boring about Biden. In the last 6 months, the entire nation has been on the edge of its seat waiting to see what mumble mouth will spew out.
