Biden could grab some votes by hoisting a shotgun and clearing the birds.


:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I am laughing a lot at this. Such a great thing to truly visualize.


I had to occurring thoughts:

The first was Biden looks once slowly returns his gaze to the audience, slowly with a frustrated look on his face looks again, and returns to the audience, that is meant by it even louder set of birds to eat grits his teeth and lift the shotgun from behind the podium and unleashes.

The second version is a little more civilized. Again Biden tries to scare down the birds a few times, and then gently signals to one of his handlers who brings out the shotgun so that he can get down to business.

Now in this alternate universe scenario there is a another outcome to ponder what would be NRA heads exploding across the land.

For the 1/100th time, the reason we show so many Cases, compared to other countries that haven’t done nearly as well as we have, is that our TESTING is much bigger and better. We have tested 40,000,000 people. If we did 20,000,000 instead, Cases would be half, etc. NOT REPORTED!


OK so let’s break this down again. For the 0.01 time. We’ve tested 40 million people, but if we tested half that the cases would be half. That’s not being reported, because only an idiot would not be able to grasp the idea that if you added 2+2 = 4 but if you add 1+1 it would be 2.

Unfortunately where the math is factual, the mathematics of the virus progression is not.

As an example, Arizona has a crease testing 134%, that his net at a 579% increase in cases. Trump math, which will not be taught in any school anytime soon, says that with 134% increase in testing there should be 134% increase in cases, however The data demonstrates that it is more than four times that. That is more than 400% if you’re keeping track at home.

Aside from being a self described stable genius, he’s very far from the sharpest butter knife in the drawer.

Any chance the failures by Trump to do much to stop the virus could break the hold the Republican party has had on older people? I mean, between that and the attacks on social security and medical care, they really are in his crosshairs. Maybe now would be a good time to try to reach out and steal these voters permanently, especially with Biden running.

While it's relatively new for seniors to lean R I think it's doubtful to flip today's seniors permanently D.

According to some polls, Trump is losing the 65+ vote. He only has a small lead with 40-65 group.

Sara Smith was asking Hogan Gidley about what Biden or the president could gain from debates, he said
"You're going to hear interesting comments from Joe Biden about how children love his leg hair and how he used to coax children up onto the porch with ice cream during quarantines," before Smith interjected with a "whoa."
