2020 Election Thread

The Trump campaign had this quickie ad prepared for Sunday's airing of "Fear the Walking Dead". Good stuff:

Never seen a bigger group of people, who, with train bearing down horn blaring, will stay rooted firmly in their car turning the key over and over, utterly convinced that with the NEXT turn of the key it will start again.

Well to be fair the Socialists/Communists outdo the Republicans in that definition of insanity.......you know, trying the same thing more than once and expecting different results. "If we just had the right person/people doing it this time we'd get it right!" Forget that Socialism/Communism has failed in nearly every attempt, nope we gotta give it another whirl.

There are not enough likes on the whole Internet to give this the recognition it deserves as a stroke of advertising genius.

What next? Maybe a roast of '80s Biden commercial for The Goldbergs...

"Remember when Joe Biden loved America? Even Pepperidge Farm doesn't remember that..."

Okay, I again ask "what would have been better"?

If you recall Trump was labeled as xenophobic for banning travel to China, by the same Democrats screaming now. He also supported the initial shutdown of a couple weeks in, what, March or April? He then realized that it was economic suicide. I might also reference the Biden quote I've seen about shutting it all down again. Of course at that point one has to wonder if it is really an over-abundance of caution or a deliberate attempt to kill our economy and make people beg for .gov to save them, ushering in socialism sooner rather than later.

Trump also invoked the Defense Production Act to ensure vital stuff was made promptly despite the private sector dragging it's feet. That is rather un-Republican, wouldn't you say?

As far as his cabinet picks, that has plagued his administration from the start. Those NSC/NSA picks can hardly be blamed for some perceived "tepid" response.

The "bidding war" over PPE? Trump's PRIMARY responsibility is for this country and no one else. I would make no apologies for it if I was him.

It is human nature to second-guess shit. It is a Democrat specialty.

I would still like to hear what Biden would do differently, and even more important, more effectively.

All those states and hospitals systems were complaining they got outbid for PPE, when the result was they got it for $0 out of their budget as a result because it was handed to them by the feds. We're now awash in PPE exactly because the Trump Administration prioritized "America First".

Still not one person has said what Biden would do different. His entire platform plank on Covid is "I'd listen to the experts." Well sorry, but that isn't a "plan".

Simply put, America is one of the freest, most open societies of all the large scale countries in the world. The entire EU land mass would fit inside the US TWICE, with room to spare. We're 14 times larger than France. When you compare the EU to the US, consider EU countries to be the equivalent of US states, not the US. Here's something that's illustrative of my point:



So despite many more immigration controls and other facts like the EU population of Chinese nationals being 2.15M to our 3.8M, the EU is not that far behind us in deaths (the EU passed 200K on July 7th).

So again with these facts in mind, what did the Trump Administration screw up so badly?

Polls...I know, I know...

"Battleground states" are tightening up. The spread still has Biden on top, but many states are well within the MOE now. For senate, NC's democratic douche nozzle candidate is dropping in the polls (still ahead by 1.6). Of course, polls are not votes, and historically the GOP turns out bigly on election day, so....

Yet, on CNN you read articles about "This is how they will turn Texas blue" and other such drivel. I had to spend ten minutes explaining to my dad why Texas isn't going to flip this election especially with Biden's flipflopping on the fossil fuel industry comments. He really screwed himself and you end up with things like this:

Basically after the debates, the largest trends on Google (which they can't ignore) were "can I change my vote" with significant trends in so called "toss up" states along with those with manufacturing presence. Now, are they going to change to Trump? Data doesn't tell that. But after the debate, it was trending enough to make it number one on their list.

Just remember the polls in 2016, Klinton was a sure thing.......Polls are no longer effective and the pollsters know it. This is all part of the setup. I refuse to believe this country is stupid enough to elect someone as bad as the Dem ticket.

With all of that said, act like Trump is 20 points behind, talk to people and VOTE!
