“It will go away and as I say, we’re rounding the turn, we’re rounding the corner. It’s going away,” he said.

”Ah, but the strawberries, that's, that's where I had them, they laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt, with geometric logic, that a duplicate...”

Minimum wage should be $15.

Socialised medicine is great...for those who can't get cover from employers etc.
Yes, the homeless woman with the infected leg can rock up to the public hospital and have it treated, free.

"Politicians will say anything, and build spaceships on Mars if they think there are votes in it".

Gotta power America with something...solar and wind just don't cut it.
Australia has plenty of uranium for sale ifya wanna build more nuke reactors.

Seems to me that there are porky pies being told in this debate, they both can't be correct.

No one in America should be living in poverty or be homeless.
Nobody wants to live on Mars, or go there for a vacation.
The space ships should be cancelled and the money spent on the People instead.

A new Columbia University study concludes that Trump could have saved up to 130,000 lives if he had implemented the same public health strategies employed by six other high-income countries that had far better success in controlling the coronavirus.

130,000 lives. It's too painful to even write that, let alone live with the consequences as tens of thousands of American families have to do.

The United States has the worst outbreak in the world. And Dr. Anthony Fauci predicts that 300,000 Americans could die by the end of the year.

The countries the researchers studied were South Korea, Japan, Australia, Germany, Canada, and France, all of which were far more successful in controlling the pandemic and therefore have had far fewer deaths and lower death rates than the US.

The "tiny windows" rant from DT was amusing.   I wrote a song about our dystopian future with Joe Biden and all the green buildings with tiny windows.   

With apologies to the Beatles....

She came in through the bathroom window,
   At least that's what she used to do.
    But now Joe Biden made this Green plan,
     And no human body will ever squeeze through.

   Didn't anybody tell him?
   Didn't anybody see?
    Tiny windows will only trap us
     When we have the urge to flee.

   She said she'd always been a dancer
   Which made her very very svelte
    But now she'd have to have stage four cancer
    To defenestrate through what ol Joe's dealt.

     She used to come in through that window
     Protected by a silver spoon
     But now we can't mine any silver
     Or build gated communities on the moon!

Biggest line that slipped under the radar:

Trump: “you had all those years but you didn’t get it done, Joe, why didn’t you and Obama get it done?”

Biden: “We had a Republican Congress.”
