Plus his recent debates, town halls and victory speeches have all been stirring and heartfelt. I’m quite impressed with his performance recently.

The debates have been very friendly towards Biden, to the point that nobody has actually challenged him to a serious discussion. It's going to take something incredible to keep Biden from falling into the following video now that it's only him and Bernie.



Go rewatch the debates, especially the last half, and see how Biden starts to lose his track.

If Biden does end up the Democratic nominee, I have no hope that he'll actually beat Trump in the swing states that Hillary performed poorly in by relying on his Obama-cred. Trump will absolutely destroy him in any debate and, unlike Bernie, has no qualms knifing where it hurts.

Eh. I have had to rethink some of my opinions on Biden’s ability as a campaigner and his general tactical ability. Months ago Biden essentially said he was going to hold his ground through the first three states, win SC and then ride a wave of momentum through ST and consolidate the moderate lane behind him. That seemed dubious at the time since it seemed like his coalition would fragment in the face of repeated losses. however, it appears that’s exactly what happened.

now that it's only him and Bernie.

Hey! Don’t forget Tulsi! Present till the bitter end...

[forumghost]

Clearly the Dem's just need to realise the truth that Trump came to last election- after decades of Reality TV, the American Public has been programmed to vote for whomever they find most entertaining to watch.

american politics is peak spectable

Hey! Don’t forget Tulsi! Present till the bitter end...

Oh, Tulsi would actually qualify for the debate now that she has a delegate.

[mAc Chaos]

Hunter Biden is going to be the new Hillary emails.

actually the new rules stipulate a higher debate thresh hold and tulsi has been whining about such for a while now

I'd say it's the possible dementia that a week of inactivity doesn't help to counter, but that's not a good thing either for Joe.

Here's hoping that Bernie calls for the DNC to let Tulsi debate like what happened back in 2016 then.

Kamala just endorsed Biden too. I figure it's either her, abrams, or Warren that ends up VP. I'm thinking warren

[Mcjon01]

Last I heard the DNC and CNN are considering making the last “debate” a town hall format so it wouldn’t actually be a debate just a bunch of softball questions from the audience for Biden lol what a shitshow this timeline is

[mAc Chaos]

I really hate town hall debates. It's always terrible questions.

Guys, I know you will hate me for saying this, please protect yourself well if you have to go to these rallies. The virus is very real and is no just a flu. If you fear ridicule if you wear a mask, don't head outside unless necessary, or just screw the others.

If you don't want to believe in China's figures, look at S. Korea, or even better Italy. This is NOT a joke, and some countries like India even export their cases despite not reporting a high number. Please take care.

[mAc Chaos]

The masks don't do anything either.

[rxrx]

The masks don't do anything either.

That's what Italy believes as well.

[Mcjon01]

The masks don't do anything either.

Sure they do, when you put on the mask everyone assumes you’ve got the coronavirus and gives you plenty of space between you and their nasty germs

Doesn't it pose like a .4% fatality risk for everyone under like 40?

[Dullahan]

chinese biowarfare specialists finally figured out how to stop their population pyramid from getting top-heavy. japan take note

[Yggdrasil]

Doesn't it pose like a .4% fatality risk for everyone under like 40?

Even if you are young and you have a very low fatality risk it's still very possible you need medical aid.
Also, here in Italy the 35% of population is over 55.
