2020 US General Election Thread VII: Summer of Discontent

[Vassenor]

Hmmm Biden has one claim and your leader has what is now 16?

Has Biden declared he has done more for black Americans then any other President in history?

Has Biden ever stolen millions of dollars from other real estate investors?

Is Biden demanding a cut from the sale of a social network?

[Aureumterra]

That’s literally 90% of the country though, and all the major population centers

That 90% of the country is a remarkably loose 90%. It's dominated by numerous competing militias backed by both Iran and Russia who both fight among themselves and the Regime's forces. Easiest comparison I can think of is 1930s and 1940s China. This is excluding the absurd amounts of territory that is the literal wild west right now.

Most of Syria actually has fairly stable law enforcement, although it is run by local militias rather than the central government in Damascus

Did Biden say "it is what it is" when told that covid killed 156,000 Americans?

Ah so you give him a pass and yet we have to be respectful? Interesting.

You should be respectful of Black African Americans and Hispanic Latinos, for their support of President Trump, while strongly disagreeing with them, on their different economic, political and social views. Like I respect yours, while strongly disagreeing with them.

How about putting together an actual argument instead of the automatic reversals you always pull

I've said this before, I strongly suspect GMS is a parody account or some kind of bot. I can't prove any of that but that's what I think.

[The Reformed American Republic]

Anti-Alexander Hamilton is a better term. Anti-Globalism is another term that describes me.

In the early Republic, corporations were heavely regulated and restricted. People like Jefferson also warned of corporate power. We are not founded on corporate rule or modern capitalism. That cultural myth was created later.

You wouldn't need to have any corporations if you did a communism.

I don't think full communism will work. Some socialist policies will, but not full on communism. Communists have almost always been deplorable in governing.

[Shrillland]

Uhhh is Politico acting up for me or what, it doesn't show Marshall or Kobach in the GOP race, only three are Lance Berland, John Berman and Derek Ellis.

https://www.politico.com/2020-election/results/kansas/

There are 11 candidates for the GOP primary!?!?! I had to look up on Wikipedia and my God I didn't think it was gonna be that crowded!

No, it just shows the candidates in alphabetical order, it'll show all of them tonight as the results come in.

I mean, they've been around for about 10 years so I suspect not. Sometimes it can be hard to tell but I doubt it.

The Swan interview was glorious, Trump simply cannot perform in any hard-hitting interviews nowadays, we need more of these.

At this point Trump needs to hide away like Biden. The Axios interview was a dumpster fire.

I dont think i can stand to watch the whole 30 minute video. The 2-3 minutes i saw about coronavirus was smoothing my brain something fierce

It's like a train wreck, I want to look away but I just can't.

I do not understand who thought it was a good idea. He was even more unhinged than usual.

T: "I did more for the black community than anybody with the possible exception of Abraham Lincoln."

S: "You think you did more than Lyndon Johnson, who passed the Civil Rights Act?"

T: "I think I did, yeah."

Quite. From "It is what it is" to "It's under control as much as you can control it" to "Oh, just read the manuals. Read the books" to "You test, some kid has even just a little runny nose, it’s a case. And then you report many cases". He floundered basically.

This interview, which I haven't watched fully, is honestly mind boggling. All you have to do is ask Who? What? How? No. Boom! He struggles bigly. Now, Biden should step up and take on some of these hard hitting interviews, even at the risk of gaffes: he can't hide fully forever. That said, Trump inflicting damage on himself is what Biden's strategy is right now so...

I don't think full communism will work. Some socialist policies will, but not full on communism. Communists have almost always been deplorable in governing.

I think that problems in the fact that different skillsets are required to lead a revolution and govern a country. Mao, for instance, was an excellent guerrilla leading, having literally written the book on guerrilla warfare. This skillset allowed him to cast out the nationalists and establish the People's Republic, but it did not help actually govern it, as demonstrated by his track record. Mind you, there is a similar disconnect in democratic states, where a leader is chosen based on their ability to get elected rather than their ability to lead. In theory, there should be overlap between the two, but practice has shown that this isn't necessarily the case *cough*Trump*cough*.

tbh the fact that she's supported castro and cpusa guy has pushed her to the top of my preferred vp shortlist. if biden picks her and she stops distancing herself from the pro-castro comments, that might be enough for me to hold my nose and vote for biden in the hopes that maybe he'll kick the bucket and she'll become president.

I was always a bit sceptical of him picking a relative unknown from liberal California, but now I highly doubt she will be the choice.

Again, my gut is saying Harris even if my brain says it would be a bad choice.

Bernie allover again, or another version of Bernie. Even Democrat Joe Biden supports the Cuban communist regime, while he criticized Bernie for it.

I mean on one hand his interviews are painful to watch. But on the other the more he does them the more likely more will be turned off from voting for him.

i don't think that joe biden supports the cuban communists, tragically. bernie was a bit of an apologist which was great, though he could've probably gone further.

Biden plans to undo all of Trump's anti Cuban regime policies, if he becomes President, he plans to follow Obama's policies on Cuba. You can vote for Joe Biden without holding your nose, since he supports pro Cuban regime policies you support. For this and many other republican reasons I support President Trump and hope Biden does not win.

the reason i dont support biden has little to nothing to do with cuba, so whether he supports it or not would not greatly affect my reluctance to vote for him - my serious problems with biden are, in order from most to least important:
- he has sexually assaulted women
- he has explicitly stated that he will veto a universal healthcare bill
- he may have dementia
- he does not express any interest in establishing socialism in the united states
- he is yet another old white man in a long chain of old white men
