Trump just can't do anything right according to his opponents so he has rightly IMO decided to ignore them and put on a show for his supporters. Each and every person there will have made a choice to be there, understanding the risks.

Four more years!

Desperate to come up with any real response? lol!

Same as 2016.  Americans won’t so much vote for Trump.  They will vote against Biden, like they voted against Hillary.

Biden wrote the crime bill, and he repeatedly stated that he was again defunding the police. There s nothing far left in Joe Biden that I can see. Please show me a link to his radical far left agenda.

Trump Pressed for a Plasma Treatment. Officials Worry, Is a Vaccine Next?

But on Sunday night, the eve of the convention, the president announced, with the FDA’s approval, that plasma therapy would be available for wider use, and he declared that it could reduce deaths by 35%, vastly overstating what the data had shown about the benefits.....

A Mad Scramble to Stock Millions of Malaria Pills, Likely for Nothing

The Food and Drug Administration’s abrupt decision this week to revoke an emergency waiver for two malaria drugs promoted by President Trump as potential “game changers” against the coronavirus has left 66 million doses stranded in the federal stockpile — and officials do not yet know what they will do with them.

You either have no idea what "radical far left" means, or worse, knowingly spread lies. Biden is not far left and certainly not radical. He wouldn't even make Left, by European standards.

In 2016, most Americans voted for HRC. In 2018, Democrat candidates won the Congress majority. I think that there is more "anyone but Trump" voters, compared to "anyone but Biden" voters. Part of is maybe because as Trump supporters say, Biden is kinda boring. Boring doesn't generate that much antagonism.

Wrong, one more time. We have this affinity to despise the people who support him. They do in any way necessary.

trump told the world when he "birthed" the President. So we have a solid belief of who he is. No reason he changes ever.

You can see that 36% TVF do still follow his every utterance.

[Mansell]

If you watch these Trump supporters on the news they are pretty much in a state of denial whatever information they are given. One woman who has been a nurse for twenty five years stated the masks were useless. A man said the Virus was bogus, and when the reporter pointed out what Trump has said about the Virus being deadly, the man said he was wrong.

Very sad how many people will die from their own ignorance. We even had around fifty people in Texas drinking bleach. The real problem with Stupid people is they don’t know they are Stupid.

The reality is the POTUS doesn’t care about anybody at all. Did you know his own grandfather died from the 1918 Pandemic....if he wasn’t a sociopath he might have some compassion based on his gramps. But absolutely nothing. He will lose in November because caring and thinking people are sick and tired of this lying Bozo the Clown.

Many Americans have no idea what it means. They will call anything that is even fractionally to the left of their own far-right ideas and views “radical far left”, or “socialist” or whatever. By European standards, probably about 99% of American politicians are to the (far) right of the political spectrum.

I wouldn't say American politicians are that uniformly right wing, and certainly not far right. That's simply exaggerating in the opposite direction. Biden, for example, is nothing "far". He's centrist-right, with some variations depending on issues. Sanders is not "radical", but simply Left. And so on.

I don't entirely agree. This is Darwin's principles of natural selection in practice and reducing the stupidity of the population has some clear benefits. What is sad is that they're not only killing themselves but others around them.

Biden’s radical far left agenda? That’s hilarious. This is why Trump keeps telling so many lies because there are so many fools who believe them.

Depends what decade.  America has gone further right in the last 2 decades.  I think it's a last gasp of the boomers just before it swings the other way.

I actually think he's evolved to center left. He's for expanding the ACA to include a public option. He led Obama on the marriage equality issue. He has an opportunity to finally address the historic scourge of systematic racism which ironically Obama being black really couldn't do because he would have been accused of showing special treatment to his own people. Sure Biden had done some really bad things before he was VP but given where the country is now (pandemic, depression economy calling for a modern FDR) and the democratic party is, given his VP pick, Biden is positioned to the left of Obama when he ran.

 

Not good enough for the Bernie bros though.

‘Shameful, dangerous and irresponsible’: Nevada governor blasts Trump for indoor rally against state rules

 

Shortly before President Trump took the stage on Sunday night in Henderson, Nev., for his first indoor rally in months, Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak blasted the president for flouting the state’s coronavirus restrictions by packing hundreds of supporters, many without masks, into a building.

The Democratic governor noted that Trump and his campaign were violating Nevada’s ban on gatherings of 50 people or more, tweeting that the president’s rally at Xtreme Manufacturing was “shameful, dangerous and irresponsible.”

“Tonight, President Donald Trump is taking reckless and selfish actions that are putting countless lives in danger here in Nevada,” the governor said.

I agree with your post and think there is another relevant angle to this. Joe Biden cannot draw crowds even a fraction as large as Trump can. In order to distract from this fact, which clearly shows the statistical enthusiasm deficit Biden suffers from, the usual suspects complain that Trump is even holding rallies to begin with.

The United States uses a state-by-state electoral college system for electing presidents. As such, a national popular vote count is irrelevant to the outcome of presidential elections.
