Trump CRUSHES Biden; Joe will kill the entire oil industry wtf

Trump has butchered the US Covid response and his own related behavior throughout. You seem totally lost on this topic. Seriously, are you really going to suggest Trump is the man to lead the US through Covid ?

As I stated in my comments, Trump seems to have the better plan on Covid going forward. Sure Trump has botched US Covid response. So has almost every other national leader going by the resurgence of Covid recently in their respective countries. We need to find a way to keep our economy open and get Covid under control. PPE and policy regarding high risk events seem to be the most practical path forward.
 
Can you remember when George W. was up for re-election did you vote for him too ?

I did not vote for Bush ever. In fact, I protested his war along with several Leftist groups. I do note, according to Kamala at the Vice Presidential debates, the Bush family have endorsed Joe Biden. How would you feel if a Bush was appointed to a cabinet position within the Biden Administration? Need a drink, yet? Something stronger than Koolaid, perhaps?


The whole world outside of the US could not understand what Americans saw in a man that led you into a senseless war.

Americans were decisively against the war initially. However, Bush apparently wanted to avoid the political damage of starting an unpopular war. Over the next few months, the US media incessantly made the case for war. As soon as US public opinion shifted to the majority favoring the war, the war began. By the way, the first Iraqi War was the result of an CIA misinformation campaign against Saddam Hussein. The idea was to suggest to Saddam the US would look the other way if Iraq asserted their long standing territorial claims in Kuwait. The point of the operation was to regain control over oil pricing. Iraq had exceeded their oil production quota ever since their war with Iran ended. Iraq was warned several times, but ignored those warnings. The price of WTI crude dropped to about $10 per barrel and wrecked havoc on the oil industry and the Texas economy. Saddam made a credible public statement that he was set up by the CIA after the US declared war on Iraq. Saddam was executed after a controversial trial.


Luckily for you enough Americans want to turf Trump and see him for exactly who he is; a psychopath capable of enormous damage on the planet and in your country that has to go. Nothing to do with parties, it's the man himself.

Trump a psychopath. An antiwar psychopath? You know how that sounds, don’t you?

Enormous damage on the planet? Are you confusing Trump with Xi or Putin? You are aware of the many ecological disasters that have taken place in China and Russia, right? All the while the US is making progress on the environment within it’s borders.

How do you feel about Bush joining the Democrats? How do you feel about the Democrats accepting him? Under which administration are we more likely to see a thriving US war machine? Long term entrenched Joe Biden and the Bush family with their defense contractor associations or outsider Trump?

Turn off CNN and take at hard look at reality. Do your independent research and see if you don’t come up with the same conclusions I have about Trump and Biden.

Hint: Follow the money.

the beauty (or the curse) of being the incumbent is that you don’t need to talk about plans. You can implement your plans right now.
 
‘I don’t see any hands’: Awkward silence after CNN asks undecided voter panel if Trump won debate

A panel of undecided voters unanimously told CNN on Thursday that President Donald Trump did not win the final presidential debate of 2020.

“Who thinks Donald Trump won this debate?” CNN’s Gary Tuchman asked the panel of North Carolina voters following the debate.

“I don’t see any hands. That’s a zero,” the reporter added following an awkward moment of silence.

In all, nine voters said that Democratic nominee Joe Biden came out ahead, while two voters believed it was a draw.

I stopped reading at CNN
 
On the bright side, I bought crude oil short ETF SCO this morning at 16.45 and it's near 17 now :D

That's my "Biden wants to kill the oil industry" trade of the day

Both candidates were professional, well prepared, and seemed fairly quick on their feet. Each candidate had their own categories they did well in.

On Coronavirus, Trump seemed to have a more practical plan than Joe, accounting for economic and societal impacts. Joe’s plan seemed more theoretical than practical. While Trump briefly talked about PPE, including goggles, I wish he was a little more specific, including discussion on potential PPE mandates.

On National Security, I gave Trump a small edge because he talked about the hundreds of billions of dollars NATO is now paying for their own defense and that he has maintained tough sanctions on Russia. Further, Trump’s relationship with North Korea and his point about what Obama predicted about future conflict with North Korea should have won some points for his side. Biden made the point there would be a price to pay for our rivals interferring with our elections. However, Trump responded along the lines that Russia is more in Biden’s camp than his. Biden won points on tax returns.

On American family and the economy, Biden was more personable with his specific answers towards well defined voter demographics, possibly giving him the edge in this category. While Joe gets credit for talking about specifics regarding healthcare plan costs, some may question why more costs are necessary for certain groups of people. Trump pressed Biden on immigration with benefits to immigrants and which administration built the cages. Joe did not answer Trump, but talked about children still separated by their families. Trump could have been a little more prepared and talked more in detail why separations happened in the first place.

On Race, Joe gets the edge again with his specific demographic talk. Trump discussed in broad terms all the programs he approved for minorities and how well minorities performed economically under his administration. It felt sort of like someone offering the give their kid twenty bucks to leave them alone instead of spending time with them. While Joe was more personable and specific, he still was not entirely convincing that he personally cared about that demographic because he seemed formulaic by his discussing a targeted democraphic instead of using a name. Trump also did discuss Joe’s 47 years in political office and not achieving much, but Trump did not find a way to “Nail the jello to the wall” with that.

On Climate change, Trump gets a decisive nod on Joe’s statements as much as his own. Sure, Trump mentioned improvements in air quality and did point out that the Paris Accord was front loaded with the United States on the hook for most of the expenses while China’s and Russia’s obligations where back loaded before their obligations kicked in, say starting in 2030 for China, if I recall correctly. The big kuhuna was Joe’s “Zero emissions by 2025”, although he later modified that something less draconian. Joe’s statement was pounced on by Trump by his pointed out which state’s economy would be adversly afffected by Joe’s zero emissions policy. Also noteworthy is how ridicolous the Paris Accord was because the US has to pay for emissions now and by the time China and Russia’s turn comes up we’ll be at zero emissions? Kind of pokes a hole in what the climate change argument by the Left is really about, in my opinion.

On leadership, I gave Trump the edge for his “Success will bring us together” statement. Joe’s closing statement was too trite, something we always hear, but something never achieved. I wish Trump added a little more detail with his statement by briefly decribing the process that “Success will bring us together” was going to be achieved.

Overall, Trump massively improved his debate performance by being more prepared, professional, and more responsive to the debate format. Even beyond Trump’s winning the debate overall, I believe he helped sway more undecided voters to his camp than Joe did.

Absolutely wrong on the race part. Re-watch the show.

Yes, Trump was wrong when he said Racist Joe called blacks "super predators." Racist Joe denied that. Correct. It was Killary who called blacks "super predators." Racist Joe only called them "predators."

My comments and assessments of the debate are based more on what I would imagine an undecided voter might react than necessarily my own opinion. As such, I attempt to determine who made the more convincing and impactful arguments concerning an issue. We all can be pretty sure Joe does not give a damn about minorities, except during voting season, but what what may matter with minorities overall is which side seems to care the most. Based on this reasoning, I gave Biden the edge for this category. Trump needed to talk on a more personal level than he did. However, there have been some prominent, outspoken supporters of Trump who have weight with minorities that may help him in the end.

The reason why we see both sides claim victory in a debate is because candidates they the things there supporters agree with, while the other doesn’t.

I do note that based on posting frequency of polls and betting odds that have yet to fully reflect the impact of the debates, it does seem like Democrats are in panic mode again. After all, if they truly felt the election was wrapped up, they would be talking more about fitting curtains on the small windows of their future apartments and their zero emission vehicle Uber rides.
