  1. On Late Night, Seth Meyers tallied the many upsides to a Joe Biden presidency: “in addition to preserving what’s left of our democracy, reversing four years of malicious racism, savagery and criminal neglect, getting rid of Trump is just a quality of life issue,” he said

     

     

  2. Jimmy Kimmel: People took to the streets across the country to celebrate Joe Biden & Kamala Harris winning the election, our first ever edition of Drunk Kamala Harris, Trump refuses to accept that he lost and claims the election was stolen from him, we put together some past concession speeches to give Trump some inspiration,

    Covid-19 has no effect on large crowds that gather to protest or riot.

    Yet once again, selectively using half-baked science innuendos to back a political propaganda position. How come you missed large crowd gatherings for Trump rallies? Just emphasizing protests and riots because it suits your political conservative positions?  Solo otro mentiroso.

    Virus spreading is rampant in large crowds. Large gatherings are mostly considered super-spreader events in the Covid-19 fighting community. That's why scientists advise people to avoid them.

    If you really want to educate yourself, read responsible writers and articles on the subject. From NPR: Parties — Not Protests — Are Causing Spikes In Coronavirus.

    Misinformation and political misdirection does not contribute to fending off the pandemic, Instead in perpetuates ignorance and it results in further spreading.

    Covid-19 is no joke or conspiracy theory. 

    To moderators: Why are posts like the above tolerated? Why isn't his guy kicked out or his account suspended for spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories?

  4. Ρε  @Athens4, η ιστορία της χώρας των γονιών σου είναι γεμάτη απο ήρωες - ανθρώπους που έδωσαν την ζωή τους, για να ζήσεις εσύ μιά ζωή ελεύθερη και να σπαταλάς τα λεφτά του μπαμπά. Κι εσύ σαν οπαδός του Τραμπ, σαν μαθητευόμενος ναρκισιστής, ισοπεδώνεις τα πάντα και τα φέρνεις στο χαμηλώτερο δυνατόν επίπεδο. 

    Υπάρχουν άνθρωποι που πιστεύουν ότι υπάρχουν πράγματα για τα οποία αξίζει κανείς να παλέψει και (δυστυχώς) μερικοί άλλοι που πιστεύουν στον βούρκο και το κενό της ζωής τους.

    Ας πάρουμε θέσεις όλοι μας και ας υπερασπιστούμε τα πιστεύω μας ή ας πούμε στον μπαμπάκα μας να στείλει κανένα-δυό χιλιάρικα ακόμη.

    for every LP's there are a thousand Q's.

     

    On the actual topic we are discussing, Biden said after his speech in Wilmington on Tuesday that he will choose his vice presidential running mate next week. Who would be a good running mate for Biden? My choice would be Susan Rice followed by Val Demings. I think Susan Rice is the most qualified but might the most polarizing figure. I would like Val Demings as a choice. Politico has a list featuring possible candidates.

    I wonder if this re-alignment of the political spectrum, where moderate republicans essentially permanently join up with the Dems, is built to last.

    @Soprano76 An article on CNN discusses this very same question: How the Lincoln Project's brutal anti-Trump ads could remake US politics

    Once all is said and done, Republicans will go back to being Republicans is they manage to save the party from Trump. If Trump gets re-elected -for what ever reason - the Republican party is no more.

    Democrats will take what ever they can get.

    People do not have any mind to take the right measures when they are sober, these people should not be on the sauce unless they are home.

    Unfortunately that is part of the definition of the word 'vacation'. A place and some time where you can let your guard down. For the generation of young people that means 'party time'

    Mitch ain't getting bumped from his spot.

    FiveThirtyEight has recent polls that confirm your point ( McGrath 33% /McConnell 55%). In terms of Republicans joining the Biden camp, I think that is a short term adjustment with the sole purpose of rescuing the Republican Party from the further destruction of Trumpism. According to the LA Times "No president in modern history has faced such organized opposition to his reelection by members of his own party." 

    From The Lincoln Project (an American political action committee formed in late 2019 by several prominent Republicans and former Republicans)

     

  9. On the subject (oh, my! what a risky move talking about the topic at hand) changing demographics and a backlash to Trump has reshaped the Arizona's politics. Could Arizona really turn Democratic? (The Guardian) I hope so. It seems that states voted for Republicans in previous years will be up for grabs in these coming elections. While Democrats should be encouraged from the fact that they can fight for electoral votes, they should by no means relax with the idea that they might become the favorite party if this mishandling from the current incompetent government continues.

    One of the bigger questions are: Can the voters of Kentucky award the Senate seat to Democrats and terminate Mitch (the Turtle) McConnell?

    I like discussion and enjoy exchanging ideas, especially with opposing views but when someone is so utterly convinced they are right and does not see that for every point of view there are a myriad of different opinions that can be debated then it's just no fun.

    Just listen to yourself! Contradicting yourself once again, all in one sentence.

    ?

    Back on the topic and Democrats,  civil rights legend Rep. John Lewis dead at 80. Lewis was one of the "Big Six" civil rights leaders, which included Martin Luther King Jr, and helped organize the historic 1963 March on Washington. As a congressman he was a Georgia Democrat, and represented an area which covered most of its capital Atlanta.

    May his soul rest in peace. Dios lo tenga en su gloria

    Listen Pepito, you're the one who stated that it's heads you live, tails you die, not me and stating that if I continue to live afterwards I am disagreeing with myself?

    Please do not call my name in vain!

    Seriously, maybe you should re-evaluate things when more than one individuals points out the same fallacy in your arguments. Go back to the drawing board.

    Those who oversimplify tend to be ignoramuses in my opinion.

    I agree with this statement. On the other hand though, it's tough for all of us to see through confirmation bias.  

    I think this topic is getting out of hand - again.

    I hope the voters remember this come election time.

    If they are still around. ? But even then, I don't think that Trump voters are thinking people. More like zombies out to feed on liberals. It doesn't matter what it will cost them.
