Trump has a Chinese bank account.

I suspect it is not mentioned in his federal financial filings.

And "Joe is soft on China" has a hollow ring to it, between this and Ivanka's patents.
He also appears to have paid 80% more in taxes to China than he did Federal income tax to the US. MCGA!

Tuesday has come and gone. Now you Impeach DeJoy and that becomes the presiding Senate business.

Fuck with the mail, it costs you a Justice.

I need more information.   Why on earth would he do this now, and run a high risk of being branded as a complicit mobster?   (catching up on some good reads here,  so will get back to this)   Didn't he just back down on some of the other insane actions to paralyze mail delivery?   This kind of shit just ensures a tsunami of suits filed after the election.   (I know:  the chaos is the point)

The Wisconsin project may go down as one of the biggest political and economic con-jobs the US has ever witnessed, with both Trump and Scott pushing hype and big claims over reality.

It's going to have to get in a very long line...

A new survey by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Opinion Research and USAFacts finds that while voters say it’s pretty easy to find accurate information about voting, they have a harder time knowing whether there’s any factual basis for the information they’re getting from and about the candidates...

Tomorrow night's Non-Debate:   Well, it appears they will limit the topics to 6 categories which is likely a good move.  They will attempt to turn off the mic of one candidate during the 2 min response of the other.  Probably will need a sound wall and restraining devices for The Donald.
Kristen Welker is the moderator.  Not sure she will be up to this challenge.  I expect this to turn ugly, nasty and unwatchable.  The chances of this show-down affecting a voter's decision, which has been made long ago for most, is as remote as RedStainWart voting for Biden-Harris.

Will take a pass and again find better use of my time.

Note: Both men will wear bight pink ties to appeal to the women voters.

I think Kristen Walker will hold her own. When I was at NBC Washington some of the powers that be weren’t impressed with her and tried to get her off the White House beat.

That executive who campaigned so hard against her is gone and she’s moderating a presidential debate.

She’s tough and she is a pro.

Trump's team did a horrible job negotiating with the partisan debate committee, of which in agreement with Sarah Sanders I feel should be disbanded

Would have liked to see at least a lengthier debate - with the last 30 minutes being sans moderator.

Ratings bonanza!

Gee, an organization enforcing its rules... what a concept.

So even Rasmussen has Trump  losing Ohio AND Arizona? If he is trailing there he is fucked.

Senate map


https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2020/senate/2020_elections_senate_map.html


I see Republicans carrying S Carolina, N Carolina, Montana and Georgia


This would leave it at 50/50

McSally likely to fall short, as will Collins in Maine and Ernst in Iowa.


Thus PRES ELECTION takes the whole enchilada.
