I was just going to say, "presidential" has fallen to such a low all Biden has to do is successfully tie his shoelaces and then not look smug about it. Originally Posted by Katchii

Fuck it, he could look smug all he wanted, as long as he didn't tweet endlessly about it. Originally Posted by Benggaul

I have shoelaces. The best shoelaces. The greatest shoelaces. People ask me, how do you get such good shoelaces? I tie them and they still look great! Originally Posted by Benggaul

My dad now believes the corona virus epidemic is being blown out of proportions and the media is using this as a tool to tank the economy to take down trump.
These are the people who follow him.

I mean...what the fuck would the media even gain from this? Economy tanks, ad buys go away, media outlet revenues decline, they need layoffs etc. etc. etc. Originally Posted by Mekkle

It plays into the "everyone is against Trump" narrative. Logic isn't the point so much the victimhood inherent in the concept. Originally Posted by Edge-

yep. My senior housing company is basically advising to stop all direct mailers / print ads / events etc (expensive marketing) because there won't be any return on it for the foreseeable future. At least Bloomberg will give media companies some good first quarter financials. Hard to make a sale when the prospective resident isn't allowed to even visit the community at this time. Video tours are fine, but that doesn't beat physically being there yourself walking around and seeing it. Originally Posted by Edge-

It's a line that's just tailor made to fit any ad of any size, shape, or duration. Originally Posted by Skroe

This administration is going to kill thousands, if not millions of Americans.Contrary to Trump’s claim, Google is not building a nationwide coronavirus screening website
Instead, Verily is building a triage website just for the Bay Area

The key difference is Democrats are focused (obsessed?) with issues and focus their messaging in issues. Republican/Never-Trumpers learned a very long time ago that fear is an even more powerful electoral motivator. And they're entirely complimentary, which is why any good campaign does both types of adds. Typically though Democrats go more issue oriented and Republicans go more fear oriented.

With this particular line, ad makers should be merciless with. Trump just handed them a loaded bazooka.

Due to Trump being a complete idiot, its pretty clear we need to rely on state and local authorities. The feds cant be counted on until someone that's actually competent is in office.
