I should laugh at that. After all, the sarcasm is on target. Yet I can’t even produce a chuckle. Watching it, I kept thinking of all the things they didn’t get around to mentioning to the son who had just awakened from a coma, having missed trump’s entire time in office. There’s such a long list of failure, of lies, of terrible deeds, of good deeds not done, of damage trump managed to do to the country, and to our friends and allies. Untold suffering and death because he proved completely incapable of handling the worst health crisis we’ve experienced in over one hundred years. It’s really difficult to laugh, but thanks for posting it.
I think it's strange that there's this idea that Biden isn't defined...I think the opposite is true and that he's very defined. We're talking about a 77 year old man that's been in politics for a long-time, has been VP, and has several qualities about him that are well-known. To me, the idea of "defining" Biden seems to infer labeling him with a weakness so that it can be pounced on...problem is, everyone knows his weaknesses. He's a gaffe machine. He has that touchy-feely problem. He doesn't have the most progressive record. His son may have used him to gain influence. Thing is...everything you can hit Biden on...you can hit Trump on even harder...and Biden at least has shown that he can lead and have empathy. I'm not saying that things can't change, but the idea of comparing Biden with Dukakis isn't really based in reality other than they were both Democrats. Dukakis wasn't defined and hadn't ever competed at the national level. Biden has been on the national scene for 3 decades...all his warts are out there for everyone to see and have been. Big question will be whether voters turn out for him. If they do (or if they turn out just to vote Trump out), he'll win. If they stay home, Trump has a chance.
Every once in a while, late at night I play around on my phone after my wife has gone to bed, and because it's late I turn the brightness way down and its great in a dark room. Usually, the next morning, I then get up, and in the glare of bright sunlight, wonder why my phone doesn't work any more. Trump is such a dumpster fire that the luminescent hot radiance of burning garbage outshines any remotely normal light in its vicinity, rendering it pale and wan in comparison. That would be my guess.
Yikes! How do you go out in public like that? The incompetence on his staff extends all the way to makeup.
Really Will Hurd.. Stuff like this bothers me because Rep Hurd was in position to do something about this during impeachment. Instead of voting his conscience like Amash he instead gave a wishy washy answer that he couldn't support impeachment because other Republicans weren't.
Republicans like Hurd, Susan Collins, Marco Rubio, Lamar Alexander, and Mitt Romney all said that that Trump did was wrong. Alexander even said that the House managers overwhelmingly proved their case. Only Mitt Romney had the courage to vote his conscience. Justin Amash had to leave to the party. While those votes wouldn't have removed Trump from office the more votes against him, especially Republican votes, the more impact this would have on the country and if several Republicans were willing to vote for removal from office that might've pushed others to join in and spurred back room dealings like what happened to Nixon to convince Trump to leave.
I am a thoughtful man, I think maybe this Trump guy isn't the right guy right now. Can't really commit to him - bold retiring rep Will Hurd PROFILES IN REPUBLICAN COURAGE, July 2020
