Nope

None of that heard last night.  Though Mexico was in fact mentioned.  As was the 212 miles of wall completed.

Of course none of that was heard last night.

That's because your claim that he's consistent is bullshit.

And the wall that Mexico isn't paying for? 212 miles out of 1,954 total miles. Boy, that will stop those smugglers! Of course, the goal is currently 450 miles. Oh, so much better, right?

yes
every mile counts.

No, you ignoramus! Fences and walls like that make zero difference. Any smuggler can see where a fence is and where a fence isn't.

In the USA we need to have tolerance of people with other cultures, and with other religions, and with different political views, we are a free nation, and our Constitution protects all of us.

Salute,

Tony V.

For reasons that escape me, while Real Clear Politics includes the IPSOS/Reuter polling for Trump's approval rating, they don't use it for their average Biden v Trump comparison.

https://www.ipsos.com/sites/default/files/ct/news/documents/2020-06/2020_reuters_tracking_-_core_political_presidential_approval_tracker_06_17_2020.pdf

Regardless, Biden is up by 13 points among registered voters and less for all adults.

And even Trump doesn't seem to think last night went well.

Trump and the righties believe that Biden is prone to verbal gaffes but don't seem to notice that trump says something stupid or wrong all the time.  Trump has mentioned that fewer tests equals fewer cases a number of times.  Not realizing how stupid and insensitive it makes him.

The funny thing about the rally is that it was in a state that won't be contested in November -- therefore less incentive to turn out to the rally.  An indoor rather than outdoor stadium. Trump continues to downplay the virus threat, yet attendees are required to sign a waiver of liability and are handed masks they are intended not to use.  It's all so clumsy and ham-handed.

Kind of like the walk to the DC church, with police clearing demonstrators with chemical weapons, military people tagging along, awkward bible holding, not even going into the church or pretending to act religious.

Channeling Nixon is another weird loser maneuver.

It's almost like self-sabotage, or Trump's just completely lost his feel for what works.  Or the public is just thoroughly tired of his BS.   But man, everything Trump tries has been failing spectacularly. 

It's sort of eerie how Joe Biden just keeps rolling along and winning without doing anything.  At this point, I'm half-expecting Uncle Joe to run some Basement Campaign which endears him to the country.

How clueless are the (white) justice system folks in Minneapolis?

https://www.nbcboston.com/news/national-international/minority-officers-allege-discrimination-over-chauvin-booking/2146729/

Chauvin is coming in to the prison. I know! Let's tell all the Black employees that they are not permitted to guard him.

For their own emotional sake, of course. But we'll save the explanation for after they complain.

Man migrated from Italy 50 years before...burned Australian flag and his Citizenship Certificate outside war memorial, eternal flame.

Into the 'dog box' on the back of the cop truck and off to jail he went.

That’s one of the ways we know Australia is a third world shithole country.

The Republican attack machine is really throwing out some nasty adds this cycle.

Somehow, Trump thinks this makes him look better!

https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/21/politics/trump-niece-book-nda/index.html

Trump says niece set to publish book had signed a nondisclosure agreement

He says therefore she can't write a book.

Somebody should tell him... she already did
