    "So showerheads - you take a shower, the water doesn't come out. You want to wash your hands, the water doesn't come out. So what do you do? You just stand there longer or you take a shower longer? Because my hair - I don't know about you, but it has to be perfect. Perfect," he said.

    Nobody pointed out that his hair is never perfect?
    The main barrier being the lack of hair.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Biden picks Kamala Harris as his VP for 2020 and thereby presumptive nominee for 2024

    The obvious choice, for obvious reasons.
    Could be worth a chunk of votes in a simple move.

    What could you possibly mean?
    The non-WASP vote.
    Thought it was obvious. 😉

    "Wind is nice. It’s nice. But it causes tremendous environmental problems,”

    Acknowledging that his own farts stink.

  • Well, he is after all full of shit and it takes many attempts to flush his tur6s. Also: adult nappies.

    Not much going on in the USA if you're Fox News:

    Next up on the fascist checklist is rigging the follow up election - definitely meets that.

    I thought the Trump comments were fairly obvious and quite routine, all that can be said about how terrible he is has been said now. I did find it a good read as a critique of where the US is right now overall however. The numbers on military spend are truly shocking, especially if you try and gauge what they actually gained from it.

    FiveThirtyEight has released their election tracker and it has Biden on 71% chance of victory which was the same % chance they had Hiliary at on the eve of the election.

    Good news or bad news?

    How many elections have they covered, what is their track record?

    They’re the best, relatively speaking.

    Not enormously surprising as they are a polling aggregator.

    If the election goes that way.
    It would be a huge sigh of relief to see Trump go.

    He's really doing himself favours by dissing Kamala's Harris' appointment.

    According to this article, the movement of the S&P 500 in the run up to the presidential election has been a good indicator of who will win:

    I think this year just may be different to a normal election year for three big reasons.

    1. The pandemic
    2. Active voter suppression
    3. The pandemic being so badly managed by the Trump admin

    I feel for any man following in Trumps footsteps given the amount of damage he will have to undo.

  • What’s with all the Trump hating on here? He has his faults for sure but he’s achieved far more than the youth club leader Obama, and to think it could of been Corrupt Clinton? Anyway fingers crossed he gets another term least thing the country needs is a left wing Marxist nutcase who’s not even fit to hold a conversation never mind run the country.

    Has his faults.

    Full marks for understatement.
    There is more than enough evidence all over the place.

    Must be a troll surely? The Trump core vote can only operate the internet to play CoD online (complete with loud music and family arguments over their microphones).

    If by some weird miracle it is genuine it does go to show the target audience of the childish name calling and mud slinging Trump likes to go in for, very depressing if that's the case.
  • What the bed wetting bitter liberal left could never accept was the new sheriff in town was going to do things very differently, a maverick, a breath of fresh air, anti establishment elite, no more bland cardboard politics, but a man willing to do exactly what it says on the tin. That’s why he will get voted in again the silent majority will choose Him not the deranged left or the biased media not even the neo-marxist globalist. Goodnight.

    Not sure exactly what you're referring to, but if the author of the article is right it has had an 87% success rate since 1928 and 100% since 1984.

    Presumably the Russian version of furlough has left him having to cover two desks at the troll farm. Might explain why he is so keen to get everyone back to work.
