Biden, aka "the Senator from MBNA", is the banksters' best friend. But really, it's not about that or his ideology. The obvious issue is his dementia.

Now that the angry, bitter old man is gone, America can elect a decent, honorable, smart, and very capable leader, who may be able to bring the nation back from the brink of isolation. Biden will make a good president, and he will bring back some dignity the office, after years of P.T. Barnum. Trump already lost the election. Covid knocked him out in the first round. 

Huh? Decent? You call that Ukraine gig "decent" and "honorable"? You call voting to screw consumers in favor of banksters "decent and honorable"? Capable? Of what? You have yet to tell us a single accomplishment Joe Biden has made. Well, in all fairness, you did say being a Senator for 37 years should count for something. Great! That's 37 years of history from which you can peruse his accomplishments and tell us about them? What did he accomplish? You like his vote for the Iraq war? You like the fact he's known as "the Senator from MBNA"? You like that he voted for the Patriot Act? You like that he's been a Senator as our debt has soared? Can you point to any actions he took to stop it?

 

What are the capable leader Biden's accomplishments?????

Honest Joe Biden, the sharpest tool in the Democrat tool box!

 

Yes sir, Mr Honesty and Mr No corruption here Joe. Still with his razor sharp mind and impeccable behaviour.

 

Vlad and Xi must be pissing themselves laughing at the thought of this craggy semi senile corrupt smoothy being the next POTUS! If he gets elected wonder how many directorships he can line up for Hunter?

To the Russians, Biden is just like Hillary. Except he can be bought off much cheaper.

The dementia line/talking point seems to be getting a good run at the moment by our resident dementia experts. 
 

So we get closer to the general and it becomes clear that he’s nothing like Regan in the last two years of his presidency, what will the new attack line be? 

[Cryingdick]

Love it that Bernie is going to stay on the ballot. He can effectively say he did the right thing by stepping aside and still foil Sleepy Joe. So it is like a 3 way race now.

The dems themselves are also aware of Biden's mental state and worried. It's common knowledge Joe has lost his fastball. You can deflect but denial isn't going to help when this becomes painfully obvious even to the average dem. It is possible though that he is still attractive to the dems as they are on the same speed.

Joe Biden campaign's biggest challenge right now is to keep this guy

alive till the election....they must have hidden him in a hermetically sealed

chamber for fear of him getting corona'd. If he does cop it, I fear it will be curtains.

I think that is the Trump Campaign's biggest challenge. 

[Cryingdick]

One the bright side the man he served under for 8 years as number two in command has wholeheartedly endorsed him now that Bernie has fallen... oh wait...

I figured out what Biden is like. A potato chip. Now potato chips are a really tasty treat. Great fresh out of the bag and just that right amount of salty goodness. However Biden is a potato chip you found in your sofa a year after you bought the bag. You pick it up and look at it, brush it off, and for a slight second wonder if it is still edible. Then you come to your senses.

there is no lack of videotaped biden talking on the net and at times it is significantly incoherent to the average native english speaker non physician / PhD in developmental speech

Do you seriously want to make this a contest of who is the most incoherent, Trump or Biden?  Are you aware of the number of transcripts of comically incoherent Trump speeches there are available?

I think Joe Biden has a damn good chance of beating Trump, if he can just remember what planet he is on!  Go Joe, go!

Just a bit and nowhere near 50 percent. Always remember -- this is a referendum on 45. It's not a binary choice this time. 45 is an extremely toxic, historically divisive narcissistic demagogue. Americans are exhausted enough by his constant twitter and reality tv white house show, and now a national health and economic crisis. It's time to change the channel. The democrats could be running some random Uber driver and still win this time.

He's relatable. People really like him. Do not underestimate him. He has come through when he was down such as in the last democratic debate before South Carolina. That was one of the most remarkable political turnarounds in American political history. Days before people were talking about him quitting. Does he excite people? No, he does not. People are exhausted from so much "excitement" from the white house and besides I'm sure he will pick a VP that will provide the excitement. 

[Jingthing]

This election is all about the incumbent.

If we had gotten to November with a booming economy, low unemployment and a roaring stock market, he would have been very hard to beat.

But now we live in a new world. 

It's now about the incumbent's response to the virus. 

If he had taken the right steps which were already completely documented for him just to follow like from a checklist, heeding the MANY warnings he had for MONTHS thus preventing the massive cases and deaths and economic damage (at great depression levels now) as an actually COMPETENT president would have, he would have had an easier path to reelection.

But he did the opposite. 

He failed spectacularly. 

Now he's trying to gaslight his way out of this.

That's always worked for him before, but he's never had to deal with anything quite this horrific.

Nobody is blaming him for the virus.

It's about his response and his <deleted> poor leadership.

You don't seem to know what binary means. Trump or Biden. That's a binary choice.

Anyone predicting the outcome of the election in November now is just guessing.  Much can change between now and then.  Sure Biden can win.  Or Trump.  

 

And polls have proven to be meaningless since they don't seem to grasp they should be based on how elections are won with the electoral college.  It matters not if a candidate wins the popular vote.  Win enough swing states and boom you are in.

To that add the uncertainty caused by the pandemic.

Yeah Trump is directly responsible for all that. Get a grip. It's this sort of semi-psychotic ranting that is turning a lot of people off about libs and how they conduct themselves these days. 

 

The more the grave pun intended consequences of picking Joe sink in, the angrier the hornets. Bernie still on the ballot. LOL there goes a good chunk of Joe's votes. Not counting the 15% of Bernie's crowd that actually goes Trump.

 

 

Angry doesn't sell well. Bernie found that out. Warren found that out. At least Joe isn't so caustic all the time. He is still going to have to rest on his laurels of scoring 4 touchdowns in one game back in high school.

 

Also when addressing other forum members with words, like champ is undignified and unnecessary.  Okay bro? Got it dude. I did it there but these type of silly terms that get used are not meaningful. A few of our members always do this to make it more personal. 

LOST MONTHS Re-elect on that

This is the old meme. The hackneyed hope.

 

Newsflash - they won't.

 

It's Trump's to lose. I think people will be in a far more forgiving and confused mood. Trump projects strength and populism. Biden projects confusion and indecisiveness.

 

This will be an election for the books. People will be economically ruined but they won't vote for that other guy.

 

Biden won't gain votes it will just be same old anti-male, anti-white special interests he will pander to.

Love your last sentence. Biden has already promised to not pick a running mate based on who's best, but based on genitalia. And just today, we read the story about Biden pandering to Bernie Bros. I don't think identity politics is going to cut it. And besides, there's no way Biden can even keep up with all the groups he needs to pander to.

Yeah it's bizarre. They are the resistance. LOL Constantly attack Trump for being boorish and childish and then start throwing out attacks that require the thought process of a 5 year old child. 

 

They could focus that energy into more productive things. Perhaps practice staring at a spoon until your sheer mental power makes it bend.
