Another way that 2020 is not like 2016.
Four years ago, statements like these would have sucked all the oxygen out of the room. Trump would have dominated the news cycle for a week and it wouldn’t have mattered if what he said was nonsense, objectionable, a mistake or a lie. All that mattered was that we only read, heard and talked about him for a week.
Back then, every misstep, lie and provocation was a story.
Now it’s just a Saturday.

And hardly any of them wear a mask or social distance

It's like the attendees are all trying to nominate themselves for The Darwin Awards. Sadly though some of the cases and deaths will be of people who came into contact with attendees after the event
I wonder if he'll trot out the old bleach comment before election day?
He won't. You can measure the stupidity of that comment by the fact that even he now realises it was stupid.
There's a bit of a late swing towards Trump. FT now have it as 272/125 to Biden.
It's said that 2/3rd of Americans (who are going to vote) have already voted by post.
Ohio is seriously creeping me out.
Apart from its chunky 18 electoral college votes, it is also the rabbit's foot of states in a presidential election.
Ohio has backed the winning candidate in every election since 1960. It has only backed the losing candidate twice since 1896.
And this year, the lead seems to switch every 15 minutes! It was leaning Democrat two days ago, but was leaning Republican this morning. Now it's back to being a 50/50 toss-up.
Fucking hell Trump calling biden a Castro puppet
man is delusional
The more I study varying coverage of this election the more irrationally nervous I become
.
Why do I get a nasty feeling this will be closer than many people think?
Hmmmmm, could go to the wire which will cause total mayhem
