You know who sees through the liberal elitist plan for political power through the Latino vote, the Afro-American. You want to bring in who to do what? Going to Biden in droves along with centrists, moderates, independents, and anti-Trump republicans.

Still waiting for you to be honest, Luee.

Your notion that Bernie is a "liberal elitist" and Joe is not is laughable.

Neither is anybody's elitist.

But yes, the centrists and moderates are going to Biden.

The independents vary. While it is not as onesided as Bernie would have us believe, it isn't what you say it is, either. 50% of the independents in California voted for Sanders. More than 30% of them in VA and MA.

And the Latinix/Hispanic population is far more strongly voting for Sanders than for Biden.

Look, this is easy to look up, instead of your making up shit and tossing it out there, Luee.

Use your brain.

Huh. what are you talking about? I carefully research.

Afro-Americans are for stricter immigration laws. Bernie has become a welcome all sort of guy. Big government in everything but immigration enforcement.

https://blog.usejournal.com/i-know-trumps-suffering-from-dementia-because-my-mom-displayed-the-same-symptoms-c6310d2f2351

His recent comments in which he seems not to understand anything about epidemics,  clinical testing,  mortality rates,  or science generally,  and then wildly spouts nonsense from his "gut" -- all seems indicative of further deterioration.   I think a mental hospital would be a more compassionate outcome than jailing.

The supposed dementia he displays is like nothing I've ever seen and likely such a diagnosis should come from somebody who actually examines him.  He is, and always has been, a cretin and functional illiterate.  Why that needs to be softened with a possible medical explanation is unimportant to me.

Listening to Trump give flawed and politically motivated medical/public health information from his gut made me sick.

The guy proves every day how fucking inept and dangerous he is.

Larry Kudlow says that "80% of those that catch this virus will recover", he seems to suggest that a 20% death rate is fine with Trump and the markets should not panic on this news.

I have a hunch that Kudlow will be walking back every comment within the next few days.

Not long for the taskforce, I suspect. Perhaps not for his current job, contradicting his boss's gut that way!

30 years ago, he seemed quite lucid, Yank. Interviews with him showed a cogent man, albeit narcissistic in presentation.

I responded to your inclusion of Hispanics and Independents.

You? You come back with information about African-Americans.

And this is your evidence of doing thorough research?!

I also love Luee's continued use of "Afro Americans" a phrase that hasn't been used in over 40 years.

The administration and Trup are handling the crisis wonderfully well!

At the same time, I have to say, people are now staying in the United States, spending their money in the U.S. — and I like that.

Fred had dementia the last six years of his life.  There may be a genetic component.  As Josh said, Trump used to make more sense, in a boastful sort of way.



Also, "Afro American" reminds me that I owe Mayor Pete an apology.  His surname looked Norwegian to me, and those cheeks provided what I thought was confirmation, but it turns out he has not one drop of Nordo-American blood, and the surname is Maltese.  Some Norwegian names have an "ieg" ending, that's what threw me off.  That, and a video I saw where he was surreptitiously stuffing herrings into his mouth.

30 years ago he was a playboy and celebrity mostly famous for being famous and who never had anything important to say.  You're giving him too much credit if you think he's deteriorated.  He's always been a creep.

30 years ago Trump owned Mar a Lago in addition to his 4 casino properties and many interests in golf resorts/buildings across the US.

He may have been a playboy - you follow that closely, I guess, but was also a mogul.

And if you think Trump could possibly perform at all these rallies, plus make reporters look like fools most of the time without being lucid, you're bonkers yourself.

That said, I wouldn't mind a much younger president at all.
