Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

[Nurasu]

TLDR - Economic growth under Obama, even ignoring 2020 and the impact of covid, was better than under Trump, even after the Trump/Republican tax cut.

It's still not all about the economy, because Republicans can't deliver a good economy. They can only kill a good economy, which we've seen under Bush Jr. and now under Trump.

Good job, Republicans!

I love this article. Even Trump's most ardent supporters are getting nailed by his economy. They did well in spite of him, yet still thank him and ask for more.

But Idaho's No. 1 employer was caught in the crosshairs of his trade wars, especially with China, when Trump signed an executive order in 2018 prohibiting Huawei, the telecommunication giant, from selling its products and services in the U.S. The Commerce Department subsequently banned U.S. companies from working with Huawei. The Chinese company was among Micron’s largest customers, buying more than 10% of the chip maker’s products.

The disruption illustrated the extent to which Idaho has become a top-ranked state for global trade. Since 2016, when imports to the U.S. increased 9.2%, Arizona, Utah and Idaho imports climbed 35%, 18% and 14%, respectively. Utah’s and Arizona’s exports led the nation during the same period, rising 44% and 12%. Idaho exports fell 30%, however, and Micron's revenue plummeted 23% in 2019 and declined 8% this year.

Fully expecting a repeat of 2000, especially now that Trump will have packed the court with activist conservative judges.

If we get one, I'm taking to the streets.

It needs to be close enough (under 1% in swing states) for that to matter.

At the moment we're not looking at a close election. This could change, but there's no evidence that it will.

I'm pretty sure we'd see dissolution of the US if it does happen though.

We have a Mooch-3 left until the election. Anyone else as fucking excited as me?!

I can see the headlines:

TRUMP, YOU'RE FIRED!

I really look forward to getting one of those framed for my wall because I'm in my 30s so I wasn't around the last time America defeated the fascist fucks!

Trump hides in the bunker from some protestors, claims he's a war time president during covid taking no action and then only to wave the white flag, but retards think he's gonna successfully lead them in a civil war fantasy, jeez.

While riding a flying raptor who is riding a skateboard with a jet engine while Trump is holding the blade of an Archangel.

Rise up, latte nation?
Kpop-stans rebellion?
Jigglypuff's war march?

Naw, we're those terrifying "antifa" terrorists. Hide yo wife, hide yo kids.

Or are antifa back to being the think y'all laugh about and not a big deal, since you don't need them as a bogeyman anymore.

We're basically at the point right now where we'd need an outsized polling error or fuckery for a Trump win.
I don't think we're going to see outsized polling errors this time because the district level sampling backs up the broader polling narrative, which it didn't in 2016.

Election fuckery could still happen, so be wary.

Just go out and vote like somebodies life depends on it.

Right wing terrorist snowflakes bristle at criticism from a State Senator in NM, unleash racist and homophobic threats against him forcing him to flee his home with his husband out of concern for their safety.

Reminder, right wing terrorists were just foiled plotting to kidnap the governor of Michigan, and discussed kidnapping the governor of West Virginia.

I'm increasingly warming up to capitol punishment, because we need to stop Y'all Queda from gaining more of a foothold in the USA.

This. THIS. Needs to be the new name for White Supremacist Domestic Terrorism.

And the story and events are just horrifying. The FBI and NM State Police had better already be setting up a Command Center to investigate and fully prosecute.

Back? Democrats dropped talking about them the moment they hurt their polls. Thats why you don't hear about them anymore from your sources.

I think choosing which Trump family member is less slimey is like choosing between who was more genocidal, Hitler, Stalin or Mao.

I've heard it referred to as "Pick up the turd by the clean end."

You missed their Ohio kidnap plot.

I actually like the headline of "First Female Vice President" which I think is getting lost in the shuffle.

Despite the entire GOP convention telling you this, democrats never talked about them... because they are just randoms. While DNC is part of the establishment being protested... antifa hates Biden..

Another miscalculation by Biden on the cost of his proposals.....https://www.foxnews.com/politics/bid...c-college-cost

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden said that the government could provide four-year college educations for $150 billion, only for his campaign to later admit it would really be closer to double that amount.

During an interview that aired Sunday on CBS' "60 Minutes," Biden bragged about the number as a feature of proposed "significant institutional changes" that would include a 15% minimum tax on corporations, saying it would raise more than $400 billion.

"I can send every single qualified person to a four-year college in their state for $150 billion," Biden said. "I can make sure every single person who qualifies for community college can go and we still have a lotta money left over. That's what I mean by significant institutional changes.

"60 Minutes" noted that organizations like the Tax Policy Center have questioned the validity of Biden's claims that the corporate tax would raise that much money. His quoted cost of education was also off the mark, according to his campaign.

"After our interview, Mr. Biden's staff told us he misspoke, and that the cost of free public college could be twice as much as he said," CBS' Norah O'Donnell said in a voice-over after Biden's claim aired.

My tax dollars going towards killing people on the other side of the planet, or educating our citizens? You could double that again and I would still prefer that over funding wars.

PSA: Most Cosplay Leftists are really just fans of particular podcast.

They really have no depth of knowledge of how US politics work, or how elections even works.

It's just a stupid performance for their online personas.


All the "woke leftists" pretending to vote for Trump or against Biden, are this guy:



Stop shaming the non voters guys, it might hurt their imaginary ballots.

The white nationalist apologist probably has never voted or voted Democrat.

Exactly. We have so much work to do to bring this country up to 21st century standards.

Policy advancement (hopefully Blue across the board).
Infrastructure.
Education.

[postman1782]

Many sane center-left people see this leftist clownshow for what it is and vote accordingly.

Tim Pool isn't Center-Left, he is best friends with Nazi bitches like Lauren Southern and Brittany Pettibone.
