Bernie drops out paving the way for senile Joe.

My contention is as follows, Joe is well known for his amazing 'ground game', with covid there will be less of an opportunity to deploy this, putting more of a primacy on TV debates, where he comes across as awful the vast majority of the time.

I genuinely think there's a good chance of a Trump second term. Now I would prefer Joe to win, it has to be said, even though I really do not like him. The best thing about him winning would be the elimination of The Squad and their kind, a Sanders win would have legitimated them.

Biden loses to Trump unless Covid-19 makes Trump's base turn against him. Nobody is excited about Biden. The middle won't go out to vote for him. The Democrats have learned nothing from 2016.

I think so.

Who out of the candidates actually caught your attention? For me it was Yang and Gabbard. Yang because he advanced UBI, something I profoundly agree with and Gabbard due to her positions on foreign policy.

To me Sanders came across like a bitter old socialist, too much ranting and raving, too much of a focus on redistribution.

Pocahontas disappointed me, had nothing interesting to say on health, played far too much woke identity politics bullshit and really did not respond well to difficult questions, becoming short in her answers and pretty aggressive.

There needs to be quite a big rethink.

I liked Bernie but 2016 was his year. I listened to Yang on Joe Rogan but he seemed like a tech guy with tech solutions for tech people. He seemed like a smart guy but he was full on Silicon Valley. I don't know enough about Gabbard.

I actually find his press briefing fucking hillarious, If anyone asks a question he dont like he talks over them and runs down the list of options left available:-

1. Thats fake news
2. Thats a nasty question
3. NO, were doing a great great job
4. I acted as soon as I knew and the press slammed me for it ..

The bloke is a complet and utter fuckstick.
 
President Donald Trump has claimed "total" power to lift the nationwide coronavirus lockdown, contradicting governors and legal experts.

"The president of the United States calls the shots," Mr Trump said during a combative press conference in which he feuded with reporters.

But the US Constitution says the states maintain public order and safety.

Going in to full dictator mode isn't he ?

Hopefully it is a sign that he is cracking up.
 
This could well be the thing that breaks him.

However the problem is his opponent is a 77 year old who looks and sounds every bit his age and then some.
 
This is really an interesting read whatever your faith or non faith is. I am what is now called an Ominist whilst also being a Christian (mystic) and follower of the Franciscan life.

Make of it what you will. I have always thought Trump ro be the Anti-Christ

.......................

I've reviewed every prophecy on the Antichrist, and what I read blew my mind

//////////////////////////


Does the Bible predict the future with stunning accuracy as so many in the end-times camp have claimed?

I grew up in the rapture-me-outta-here end times movement, and have spilled no shortage of ink critiquing it– even poking a bit of fun at it. As a theologian I fall into a category of belief that sees biblical prophecies about “the end” as being events that have mostly been fulfilled in the past, but I try to hold that belief gently and recognize I could be wrong.

Many of my fellow Christians in America have warned me over the years of exactly that, often telling me: “I feel sorry for you, because when the Antichrist comes you’re not even going to recognize him!”

To honor those who have given me such warning, I decided to spend the past week studying the most significant biblical prophecies and descriptions typically believed by my conservative friends.

I'm honestly beginning to wonder if we'd notice the difference.

Unless he suddenly started making sense of course?

If anything he's showing he's all mouth and no trousers and given his dictator love in - this would be the exact time to lead, but he's caveating himself and trying to ensure he can't be blamed.
