Please explain where all the trained social workers will come from? They can't be just magiced up.

Also, how many will be willing to go in harm's way to carry out their job?

Trained social workers come from the same place all employees come from... is this a difficult concept? Why "magiced up"? Like many cops, a B.A. and training for the job. Simplest stuff in the world.

 

Many are on the record that they are willing to do it.

Why Biden then do you ask his replacement pick? Why not trump, Pence or Harris? Fox did a fair job in reporting the Harris pick. 

The two exceptions were Gutfeld but he is always a sickie and Jeanine who was making a sick prediction he won't be there on Election Day. 

Thanks for the Fox news updates.

Biden with his token choice has made his first of many mistakes. If that is the best the Dumbercraps can do ,get ready for a Trump huge win.

I asked If biden gets incapicated before the elections how does the dnc pick the candidate. Real simple question, you don't need to answer if you don't know the answer. I apologize for not watching FOX.

The same procedure as happens if Trump gets incapicated ?? before the elections.

Trump was extraordinarily impressed. That he can tell you : "“She was extraordinarily nasty to Kavanaugh — Judge Kavanaugh then, now Justice Kavanaugh,” “She was nasty to a level that was just a horrible thing the way she was,”  

Coming from Trump, who knows something about, it's a compliment. It's a win.

Trump have righted many wrongs and got rid of bad actors like Comey. He had an uphill battle against the swamp and media. He also achieved the lowest minority unemployment rates ever. Something Obama/Biden said couldn't be done. Of course if you watch MSM you would never know anything good has happened. 

The cancel culture has made most people unwilling to express their political views (like in 2016) but they wont stay silent in the voting booth.

The MSN reporter was really not reporting but acting as a political operative and got shut out.

 

"The cancel culture has made most people unwilling to express their political views (like in 2016) but they wont stay silent in the voting booth."

 

The majority of voters did not cast their vote for Trump in 2016, "cancel culture" notwithstanding. Is there any credible assessment things would be radically different this time around?

Come now, why should Trump become incapacitated? Is he not, by his own admission, amazingly fit for his age (and cheeseburger consumption rate!). It is not as if he cannot walk down a gently sloping ramp without assistance or anything like that?

Also, how many will be willing to go in harm's way to carry out their job? It could be argued that they would be putting themselves at risk by dealing with many of the situations currently dealt with by cops, or are you suggesting that they be escorted by cops, which would make the entire policy worthless?

Your comment just shows how out of touch you are with reality. You do not realise that these social workers already exist and you do not understand that they put their lives at risk every day. There is so much that you do not understand.

I would absolutely expect the same treatment for Biden and Harris. A vigorous and free press should always be holding the fire to politicians feet, with no exceptions. 

I agree with that, but unfortunately the US media is openly biased against Trump. Sadly also media of other countries like the BBC and Al Jazira.

Real journalists report news, they don't insert their opinions.

He should be above so many things he gets involved in (including a Twitter spat with Bill Maher yesterday).

IMO any that think twitter is a medium for serious people are "mistaken". I've never ( and never will be ) been on that thing, whatever it is, as it is obviously, to me, where the easily offended like to lurk. IMO he's playing them on it, and it seems to be working.

It truly beggars belief and I for one can't wait until the grown ups get back in the White House and the USA gets back to some form of former glory.

That sounds great, except the candidate that you apparently support is Biden, which makes a mockery of it. It's not as though he is unknown, as most of us remember him as VP.

IMO most people still have some respect for the position, but few, if any have respect for the position holder who has done his worst to abuse that position. 

 

I truly hope for the sake of the USA and of much of the world, that Trump is soundly thrashed in the November elections and that he is dragged from the White House in chains to a jail cell with NO bail granted as he would certainly be a flight risk.

You have a right to dream, but they are just your dreams.

My dream was that she was going to jail after she lost, but I didn't keep ranting on about it.

It's a good question. Obviously if its a temporary problem then things stay the same. If it's permanent than I reckon it makes a big difference if it happens before or after Biden is nominated. As the convention is soon then its fair to assume that Biden Harris will be nominated. So from there if Biden is out I would assume Harris would be the presidential nominee. But then Biden would probably still be on ballots. I don't know if that's a problem or not. I recall dead candidates have even won elections before. 

 

If it happened before the nomination then of course it would be based on DNC rules. Perhaps then an open convention as Bernie wouldn't have enough delegates.

I don't see as to how a person ( Harris ) could be the candidate for POTUS if they had been rejected in the primaries. If Biden is not the candidate then she is ( or should be ) NOT automatically the candidate, as her legitimacy, IMO, stems only from Biden.

However, in the real world, I'm guessing the DNC will pick whomever they think can defeat Trump.

My point, which you apparently missed, is that it takes years to produce a qualified social worker. If they defund the police now, there are not going to be enough. Far as I know it takes less time to train a cop than it does to gain a degree.

Still beating that "majority vote" thing, I see. In the US it's irrelevant, as you very well know, as the founding fathers made it impossible for the largest states to dominate the election of POTUS.

Let's hope such a scenario won't happen because if it did, no matter the eventual candidate, it would mess things up and create a lot of division in the democratic party that is now totally committed to defeating the wannabe fascist dictator in the white house. In other words, the Bernie factor. 

 

On the other hand, I totally understand why 45 fans would cling to hope that this unlikely scenario happens. Their dear leader is clearly headed to a humiliating defeat so that's one thing that could reverse that well deserved fate.

Interesting that you bring up Bernie. If Biden loses ( as many hope ) it will be the second time the DNC has picked a loser over Bernie, who would IMO have been a clear winner. However, as he was apparently against rich people they couldn't have him in charge, IMO, as many of them are very rich.

In the opinion of the majority of democrats, in both 2016 and 2020, Bernie is a losing choice. He would be red baited to death. That's another reason 45 fans would much prefer to run against Bernie. 45 was clearly most afraid to run against Biden and the polls are showing that fear was well justified.

I don't see why you think that we want Biden to be taken out of the running. IMO Biden is the gift that will see Trump re elected.

What I don't want is for someone to be put in that has an actual chance of winning. It's not as though the bar is set particularly high.

I don't know why you keep banging that drum. While I can't speak for every other poster, I support Trump as the better choice between two awful candidates. Sadly, they couldn't find a decent person to contest for POTUS, which says much about US politics and media.

 Thank you!  It ain't politics no more!  harris and bidens , far left radical supporters,  many of them want to burn down the system!

You appear to actually take polls seriously, when they have been proven time after time to be erroneous.

However, if they showed Trump ahead, would you be accepting them?

Well this just happened.

I'm not sure what it means legally but it looks like they are both already nominated.

Well I haven't really followed him lately but I know him from when Kamala did, 30ish years ago, and he wasn't bad looking at all. 

I understand powerful politicians can help others to move their political careers along, but Kamala was ELECTED in what we call ELECTIONS for:

San Francisco D.A.

Attorney General of the U.S.'s most important state

U.S. Senator of the U.S.'s most important state

 

So if WIllie was helping her, he picked a real winner. Not surprising, Willie is a brilliant leader and politician. 

 

Calling women harlots is about you. Not her. What century are you posting from? Your tone is so misogynist. Sure that works with the hard core regressive 45 base but there is no hope for their votes from ANY democratic ticket.

Of course it matters, when you're backing reparations and marching with blm and running for office chanting Trump is a racist. It kind of matters.

Why, there is no evidence she was or is involved in the slave trade.

 

marching with blm is a crime now?

yes trump is a racist.

 

Now, if you think her ancestors were involved in something why dont you research it and post it.
