    Great ad. Why did the Dems select Biden? He's such an easy target! Corruption, groping of women, gaffes, mental decline, sexual assault allegations, career politician... lots of problems.

    It is full of lies... but isn’t that typical for Trump?

    I guess Trump has moved on from Hispanics being his racial scapegoat and now it is Asians.

    One of the Chinese government officials in the ad is former WA governor and former Secretary of Conner Gary Locke.

    Wasn’t Trump praising the Chinese President the other day? Very confusing ad. “It’s in the best interest of the United States if China continued to prosper”. Why would they choose to attack this? We do a lot of trade with China. The irony is that they’re criticizing Biden for labeling Trump as xenophobic during a crisis; yet the ad itself is a negative ad against a particular country. It’s essentially a xenophobic ad criticizing Trump’s opponent for calling him xenophobic. Hard to make any logical sense of it

    Opinion on using footage of Biden bowing to Asian-American Washington Governor Locke between shots of Biden with Chinese officials?

    Or using
    "Biden Opposed China Coronavirus Travel Restrictions,” a highlighted headline early in the ad, as it plays a clip of Biden citing Trump’s “hysterical xenophobia."

    Except that headline didn’t come from a news source; it came from a video the Trump campaign itself posted to Twitter.

    You are attracted to a liar, Trader_ J. Obviously a case of “like to like.” You share his compulsive lying, except you do it here, instead of in front of the American people. You must be jealous of the fellow. He has a bigger audience. A pity most of them don’t watch the entire news briefings trump gives, telling lies throughout, attacking journalists for doing their jobs. Instead, his followers typically watch the edited versions of trump on Fox “News.” They watch the spin, and get little of the truth. Similar to what you do here.

    As more of his supporters get laid off and spend their days at home, some are watching these briefings. Some are seeing trump unvarnished, trump unfettered and guess what? His approval ratings are going down, as they should be. Funny how getting the whole truth can inform the voter.

    They aren’t liking what they see. It isn’t what they expected, and they tell their friends and relatives about how trump lies, how he contradicts himself from one day to the next, from one week to the next, sometimes saying one thing in the morning, and something else entirely later that evening. It’s quite enlightening. Those who actually watch these briefings are learning a great deal about Mr trump.

    I watch them because I want to see the latest lies he’s telling the American people. Who knows? Sometimes Dr Fauci goes to the podium. I like him. He tends to tell the truth. It can be both disturbing and fascinating, with trump looming in the background. A press briefing as theatre.

    My question remains unanswered. Why did the Democrats select Biden? Had they picked literally any of their other choices, Klobuchar, Buttigieg, Harris, Beto, etc, they would have gotten 99% of the same policy positions but anywhere from 0% to 10% of the problems with groping women, corruption, pay-to-play, plagiarism, sexual assault, bad votes (Iraq), and bad legislation (crime bill). Plus none of them are experiencing dementia. How did anyone conclude that selecting Biden was the way to go here?

    Iowa and New Hampshire took a good look and he came in like 4th or 5th in those states. Did low information voters in South Carolina just vote on name recognition alone, without vetting this guy? Sure looks that way.

    GOOD DAY

    Didn’t read your post because you can tell immediately it’s not a response to anyone’s questions and more deflection

    Anytime Trump accuses other of "standing up for China" Remember this.


    For background ZTE was sanctioned for selling sensitive US technology and this tweet was the same week that the PRC allowed copyrights on Ivanka Trump products to proceed in the PRC and also invested half a billion in a Trump branded project in Indonesia.

    Complete tangent. HROZ are you British?

    They selected Biden because they thought he was the safe choice to beat Trump. You obviously have a difference of opinion on that matter.

    Now what do think of the objectively false information in that ad?

    Just checking because you don't hear "advert" used by Americans.

    What part of Australia are you from? I was in Perth 2012. Really enjoyed it but that was probably the most expensive time for an American to be in Australia.

    Lol and in Perth it was even more expensive. I think Australia - US currency was even then. While WA was going through the mining boom. Prices skyrocketed I hear.

    I grew up in Sydney, but live in Canberra atm.

    Lol New Orleans Pelicans when it was bought was like $300 million AUD($310million USA)& today is worth like $1.8 billion AUD or $1 billion USA.

    I remember telling everyone we should start a consortium lol.

    It was worse then for me as American then. The AUD was worth more than the USD while I was there. Yep there was a lot of money there. I met a lot of Cashed Up Bogans at the bars.

    I've never been to the East Coast or to Melbourne. Most of the Aussies I've met said I did Australia ass backwards.

    So @Corrosion?

    You want to comment on this add since you had so many issues with the Priorities USA ad?
