Joe Biden’s surprisingly visionary housing plan, explained
https://www.vox.com/2020/7/9/2131691...plan-section-8
Read that, than let me know what you don’t like. No one ever wants to discuss policy...Joe Biden has a housing policy agenda that is ambitious, technically sound, and politically feasible, and that would — if implemented — be life-changing for millions of low-income and housing-insecure households.
According to original modeling by Columbia University scholars, it could cut child poverty by a third, narrow racial opportunity gaps, and potentially drive progress on the broader middle-class affordability crisis in the largest coastal cities as well.
The plan hasn’t stirred an intraparty debate or really much attention at all, which could make it politically feasible to enact.
“Biden’s plan is bold, comprehensive, and will go a long way in making sure every American has a home,” Mary Cunningham, the vice president for metropolitan housing and communities policy at the Urban Institute, tells me. “It’s plainly obvious, in the middle of this pandemic, that home is more important than ever
Edit: and the streak continues... how is it possible that so many are upset that policy is nit being discussed, yet no one actually want to do it. “Strange”...

Bloomberg puts his money where his mouth is:
https://www.yahoo.com/news/bloomberg...121527120.html
Title: Bloomberg to spend at least $100M to help Biden in Florida
Excerpts:
There is more. He has been doing quite a bit of work behind the scenes it seems.Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg is committing at least $100 million to help Joe Biden’s presidential campaign in the crucial battleground state of Florida.
So there is at least one billionaire on our side.The businessman has contributed $500,000 to Voto Latino to help register Latino voters, $2 million to the group Collective Future to help register African American voters, and $2 million to Swing Left, a group focused on electing Democrats in swing districts. One of the groups he has founded and funds, Everytown for Gun Safety, has committed to spending $60 million on elections this cycle, and Bloomberg himself has pledged another $60 million to support Democrats in House races.
Hopefully Zauterberg and Cooke will take heed of Stone's suggestion that Trump arrest them both and do their part as well. Ok wishful thinking, but I can't imagine they are unaware of the threat.
Things are looking good man. At least for today. Don't tell anyone but the polls are looking pretty damn good, and Trump is struggling to come up with an effective strategy to rile up even his most hardcore fans. Much will still happen before and certainly right after the election, but for now all is good.


We know Barr is faking a report to attack Biden with. Not sure how effective that will be since everyone outside of the hardcore Trump base won't trust it.
As for Trump, we know for a fact there's a lot more damaging information coming from people like Woodward and many others. Trump has such a despicable past and has done so much wrong as president that's it's guaranteed there's an enormous amount of other damaging information that could be released. It's just a matter of whether or not the people controlling it will actually show it to the rest of us.
Trump has fucked up enough and is incompetent enough that there's likely enough damaging evidence to have an October surprise every single day until the election. All of it could chip away some of his voters. I'm not sure what would actually sway a significant portion of them, though. It would have to be conclusive proof that he paid for one his mistresses abortions or something like that.

The funny thing is, people are spending a lot of money to help Biden when the media and the experts all make it seem like he has it in the bag.
I mean if there is no way for Trump to win, why are they putting out more and more and more money to a campaign that is already over in their minds unless something is not adding up.
HEY GUYS LOOK, i finally found a poll after a few months that i kinda sorta like and can spin as a positive for trump!!!!
HEY guys look at me spin Trumps promise to build the wall by taking "routine maintenance and replacement" programs and call them part of Trumps promise!!!
honestly you have never even listed any real promises that have been kept you just avoid the issue and half comment on random related things.
Welcome to @Ghostpanther standard MO, find the outlier poll or wait till Rasmussen reports something so out there and they refuse to release the data behind it unless you pay a subscription.
Buh Byeeeeeeeeeeee !!

This. Barr, much like Trump, has completely destroyed his own credibility. The only people who would believe anything he says at this point are the same who believe all of the bullshit Trump spouts on a daily basis. I'm really not all that worried about this. The only thing that DOES make me worry is the fact that people voting for Biden will be voting by mail in much larger numbers than Trump supporters and given the state of the USPS that alone could turn things in favor of Trump.
Buh Byeeeeeeeeeeee !!

What does this stupid made up shit have to do with the post you quoted?
- - - Updated - - -
Remember when Trump swore to defund aid to 9-11 firefighters in his 2016 campaign?
What...you say he didn't make the promise?
Ok cool, my bad.
He did it anyway though.

What? In fact most people in the country think Trump is going to win, regardless of polls. So why are you making shit up? In another thread you weren’t you whining that Hillary didn’t campaign enough in battleground states? So why is it weird that Biden is campaigning more.
What doesn’t add up is your logic.
I know mommy told you there's no such thing as a stupid question. She lied.
Biden doesn't have it in the bag. He would, in a sane world, but that's not the world we live in. So here in reality, he's got to campaign like everyone else. And if he wasn't, you'd just be here criticizing him for that...since...you know, morons are still parroting that "hiding in a basement" horseshit.
