Presidential Election: 11/3/20 ---Now the President Elect Joe Biden Thread

[88Comrade2000]

Since the broadcast networks are only airing one hour; the big speeches won't happen until after 10pm.

United or United Again is a good message for this election. 

 

 

Trump is probably the first President of my lifetime that doesn't at least pretend to represent the entire country.

Perfect representation of the current state of the red party.

 

Trash 

Hey that woman was ATTACKED by those people walking by, wanting nothing to do with them. And she DEFENDED herself by indiscriminately waiving that handgun she had no experience, training or the fundamental understanding of how to operate effectively. That’s what real heroes do!

I wish Biden was more inspiring, just listening to him worries me.  I'll still crawl through fire to cast my vote though.

Biden's calmness and assuredness are in great contrast to Trump's histrionics and hyperbole. We've forgotten what real people sound like instead of a failed reality show host.

It isn't the calmness, it is things like the roundtable just not with Eric Garner's mother and the others.  He sounds forced, scripted, and not really inspiring.  And honest, this isn't just Trump hyperbole, Biden doesn't always sound completely together.  But as I said, it won't stop me from pulling the lever, he's still significantly better than the alternative.

This virtual convention is boring.  Cuomo is giving a good speech.

Let's be honest, outside of the spectacle of Clint Eastwood excoriating an empty chair, most conventions have generally been relatively boring except for when you get a truly next level inspiration orator like Obama. But that's pretty rare.

Holy ****. Fire from the woman who's father died of COVID.

 

"His only preexisting condition was trusting Donald Trump."

[Forehead]

Now see, that woman had an attention getting speech.

[mistertim]

I mean, one thing that gets a little old...I understand that they want to reiterate how badly Trump has failed, but I sorta wish they wouldn't say every single time stuff like "What are you seeing about Trump's failures on the front line?"

 

I'd rather they just talk about what's going on and let the emotional weight of that do its job. When they add the Trump to the beginning and/or end of every single question/sentence it feels sort of transparently political and cheapens it a little. 

[88Comrade2000]

That live dynamic is sorely missing.

 

Well, at least this convention will be better than  the RNC's.  That one will be pure adulation of Trump.  At least I assume it will, I don't plan on watching it.

 

Whatever ratings they are won't be much but Biden's speech should kill's Trump's.

 

 

 

Gretchen, will you be my governor?

[Corcaigh]

John Kasich went down to the crossroads.

Having the gun-touring lawyer at the RNC convention is the core Trump message .... look out white folks, Antifa and colored people are going to come to your gated communities.

Eva Longoria has got my vote.

The funniest thing about all of this, is that if Trump actually did the right thing for once, he could easily win the election. Instead, he'd rather cripple the post office and piss off an even bigger demographic than do the right thing. He can't win an election this way, I really don't think he can pull it off.

[88Comrade2000]

You know, they really didn't need to drag this out for 4 days.  They could've done the whole thing in 2 days.  Day One, showcase the future. Day Two, showcase Biden/Harris and let them give their acceptance speeches.
