It seems vegas has biden with a considerable lead nationally. What's worse is he's losing in wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania and florida. He cannot afford to lose any of those states and right now it appears he's going to lose them all.

Millions out of work, millions scared crapless to go to work, a pandemic with no national response and senate gop members who can't agree with each other about how to help americans during this crisis.

Pointing at the stock market is like shouting the top ten percent of americans own eighty percent of the stocks. Keep defending your 401 while the super wealthy rob you blind and leave you crumbs.

In my over sixty five years I have never seen such poor mismanagement of government.

Expect post office delays, long lines at the polls, massive roll purges and other voter suppression tactics we haven’t even considered yet.

Trump’s America is a third world banana republic. I am amazed that so few people see it.

Expect delays? I've been experiencing them for weeks. No low is too low for the gop, winning is everything even if it means cheating.

It comes from this liberterian streak that seems to think if you just leave everything alone, it magically works out for the best. It's a misconception that's exploited by folks like the Koch brothers to keep cutting their own personal taxes- a very short-sighted pursuit of personal interest since in the long term, once the society in which they live is weakened, sickened, weak, and anemic, they will eventually not do well either. It's like a virus that ends up killing its own host. That automatically means it dies off as well. The most successful viruses are the ones that don't kill off their host.

I’ve been noting for a while that there will be problems when all the wealth is corralled by the top tier. What are they going to do, sell each other stuff?

People just don't get it. You do not stimulate the economy by handing more money to those who do not need it. You stimulate by handing cash to those who will immediately spend it.

I'm not a gambler...especially when there are too many uncertainties. But I wonder...did Vegas get it right back in 2016?

It's disturbing that he's loosing in four states, I can't imagine loosing to Mein Fuhrer again.
 
Saddle up and enjoy the ride! Geez you put Biden up against Trump and expect a walk in the park lmfao ... sure maybe 10 years ago but Biden is off with the fairies

Then maybe you should direct your anger at the Democrat Mayors and Governors who are making these decisions for you.

You are free to riot
They won't allow their Police to stop it
You can take over a city if you want
They will fight any law enforcement who tries to stop it
You can gather all you want to protest but you can't go to church or have any crowed larger than 10 people,
They will arrest you if you try and open your business but will not arrest you if you protest against the business

Ten percent of the population will be gay no matter what we do and ninety percent heterosexual, so there's no need to defend marriage.

The late 40s to the early 60s are regarded by Republicans as the perfect era of production, prosperity, and world power. The wealthy actually contributed to the policies and programs that lead to prosperity. Unions helped wage workers prosper, accumulate wealth and spend money. To this day Republicans have no clue that the fair taxation of the wealthy and the fair wages of the workers were what made the era prosperous.

How exactly did President Trump infect 5 million and kill 165,000 with a disease that originated in China?

Well, it looks like you have quite a bit of reading to catch up on. I suggest doing it, if you wish not to continue making stupid statements.

Even after the polls closed in 2016, you could still get +550 Trump from the bookies.

I think the left is again badly mistaken if they think the corona virus will be blamed on now and future President Trump.

Actually I asked a question, for which you have no answer.

When you put a reality tv star who is a liar and cheat in charge of the country this is what you get
 
i wonder how it would go if i put a couple grand on Biden and a couple grand on King Tangface. i'm not a gambler, but i wonder sometimes. i would love to go back to the 90s and bet it on Apple.

edit to add : and see Soundgarden during the Badmotorfinger tour.

In your dumb chart, are infected people who have had the disease and need continued testing counted once or each time they get the test?

His example failed to arrest the pandemic.

He needed to come out and require masks in all indoor public places.

I went to a funeral of a "Man of God" and of the entire clan, I was the only one wearing a mask.

The guy was sorry to die, because he wouldn't be there to vote for Trump.
