As Trump said in the debates "I played the game" and that proved his authenticity. 1 Link to comment

BigRedBuster Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 19 hours ago, Notre Dame Joe said: Whatever the Left wants is "scientific" I keep going back and rereading the start of this post. It's actually pretty funny. Whatever the left wants, is scientific. Meaning, they have science to back up what they want. Republicans then turn around and don't believe science and demonize it any chance they can because the science is not on their side. The vast majority of scientists will say something that Republicans don't like. Instead of rethinking their stance based on the evidence in front of them. They attack the scientists that studied it. It really is an amazing brainwashing that has happened to this segment of our population. Then...when I ask you, what about all the scientists that have studied their respective subject for a life time......you don't even acknowledge the question and dodge it. So....you have scientists that are extremely smart and world wide leaders in their field spending a life time studying it......then you have politicians who gain power by convincing a major segment of the population (that none of this group has any back ground in the subject) that the scientists are horrible leftists who are out to destroy America. Maybe your side of the equation needs to rethink this. 2 2 Link to comment

Although this adds to the very long list of these types of allegations against Trump, the timing of it and the historical nature of it will shed doubt on her claims right away. It has been discussed in P&R before, and just like Tara Reade allegation, will get downplayed because of the timing and 25-30 years passing with no report. 3 Link to comment
Danny Bateman Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 It is increasingly untenable to say Trump is *for* science and *against* pseudoscience when they keep contradicting their head of the CDC. Or should we believe that Donald Trump and Mark Meadows, politician, are better scientists than the virologist and career researcher appointed to head America's top public health agency? 1 Link to comment

I am willing to listen to her story, and I won't judge yet, but the timing is definitely a problem (as with the now seemingly discredited Reade allegation). The same questions apply - why not before, why now, ESPECIALLY why not in 2016, etc. Those are valid questions and ones she needs to answer well. 2 Link to comment

TGHusker Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 Trump campaign figures out a way they can win even if they lose Florida and Ariz or Florida and NC. They would have to win Mi, Pa, Wisc, + Mn or NH the noose is tightening https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/election/article245760810.html Ariz is turning blue also https://cookpolitical.com/analysis/national/national-politics/new-survey-results-kffcook-political-report-survey-az-fl-and-nc Quote This week, we are releasing the most recent poll that featured 3,479 interviews with voters in Arizona, Florida, and North Carolina. While Trump carried all three states in 2020, he is not leading in any of these states today. Trump and Biden are essentially tied in Florida (Trump 42%, Biden's 43%) and NC (Trump 43%, Biden 45%). However, in Arizona, Biden has opened up a more substantial lead (Biden 45%, Trump 40%). A Biden win in Arizona would mean that he could afford to lose Michigan or Wisconsin (two of "Blue Wall" consortium) and still eke out an Electoral College win (assuming that he wins all the states Hillary Clinton carried in 2016). Biden could even afford to lose Pennsylvania and still win the Electoral College with a combination of Arizona and Nebraska's 2nd CD. Link to comment
Dr. Strangelove Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 One last thing I will add, and I genuinely believe this: @Notre Dame Joe does seem intelligent. And I commend him for expressing his views knowing the majority will disagree with him. That being said, the twisting of his views to always accommodate the President is truly astonishing. 1 Link to comment

Notre Dame Joe Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Put it this way. If you were a bad actor trying to interfere with an election would you want people coming to the booth on Election Day or mailing their ballots in followed by weeks of counting? 1 Link to comment
Notre Dame Joe Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I'm not sure this proves Biden was using a teleprompter in an interview from his basement HQ Until I heard the Biden campaign's non-denial Quote During an interview with Biden spokesman TJ Ducklo, Fox News’ Brett Baier asked directly about Biden’s use of a teleprompter, a question Ducklo did not address. “I am not going to allow the Trump campaign to funnel their questions through Fox News and get me to respond to that,” Ducklo said. https://www.dailydot.com/debug/biden-teleprompter-conspiracy-theory/ 1 1 Link to comment
