Trump appears to be very worried about Biden's winning the election as he slags him off all the time in his speeches and on Twitter. The so called, 'American Dream', has been damaged by Trump's presidency. He is more concerned about the American economy, and keeping his pocket well lined, than the US having the highest number of people with the virus. :o

Having said that Biden must make it very clear how he intends to tackle the problems, which now beset his country.

He slags off Biden because that is a tactic that has worked very well for him in the past.

He's not at all concerned about the American economy except insofar as it will affect how people will vote. Trump's only goal is to get back in to power in 2021 because, if he doesn't, he will be open to being prosecuted for multiple crimes.

He would be concerned if the economy affected his own stash of cash.

Bloomberg reckons Trump is worth in the region of $3 billion, which I would say was quite a lot of dosh.

Perhaps Biden should have a slogan 'I'm not here to get rid of the American Dream but to get rid of the American Nightmare .... Trump'.

There's a body of opinion that says he owes most of that to the Russian Mafia.

It would be better without the "Trump" on the end, but it's otherwise brilliant.

If that is true, maybe they will exact retribution if he doesn't pay up. Poison in his morning cuppa?

LittleR, he probably employs a 'taster', or maybe Melania fulfils that role.

I believe he does. However, maybe they could be persuaded to pretend to taste it!

After the sinking of several boats in a Trump supporting flotilla there is now a new slogan:

The gay community is taking over the Proud Boys hashtag and I'm finding it very entertaining, both in it's own right as a response, but also because I can picture the right wing group of knuckle draggers with steam coming out of their ears:

PS I particularly like the Wonder Woman collective !

Latest opinion polls not looking good for Trump


https://www.palmerreport.com/analysis/rasmussen-donald-trump-poll-hose/32918/

FiveThirtyEight has the Biden lead at 9.5%. That includes the Rasmussen poll but not the CNN poll. The Rasmussen poll is only graded at C+ so it gets a low weighting. On the other hand, the reason why it gets that C+ is that it is consistently Republican biased.

I had intended to listen to the debate last night but fortunately I forgot and slept through it! However, reading through several pages of comments (on the IS board) written while they were watching was far more interesting!

Did anyone here watch or listen?
