Yawn. That would belong in the Trump Implosion Thread; we're discussing the Democrat nominee. My thought is that it was a stupid retweet and a stupid statement in the first place...but it was clear he meant politically dead, not physically. It wasn't so bad in the age of target areas and other symbols, but it is bad now. there, there now...you always accuse people of "but Obama"...and here you are with a "but Trump"... It would be nice to see you actually address the statement that the presumptive nominee of your party made in the way that you would address one by that other fellow. |

I did! He’s way low in his estimate! I’m serious... The Trump campaign is floundering at the moment. We can all see it. He’s down in just about every swing state (Ohio!!!). So I’m sure they see this comment as a gift from God. And Fox & Friends is already hyping it. But they spend all day saying Democrats are bad people, so it’s not going to mean much coming from them. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

Gotta agree. If there is a way Biden can avoid debating him, it will be hard for Trump to win. If the Democrat Party capitulates to the "we need to abolish all police departments" wing of their party, that could be the impetus that propels Trump to reclaim the swing states. |

I don’t think Biden will fall into the “abolish the police” trap. His platform has called for MORE money for policing: (sorry for the huge screenshot)  “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

I agree that the campaign is having troubles right now. The lack of rallies hurts because they are good TV snippets--big crowds, excitement, etc. It is hard to contrast that with the bland Biden events if no one is having events. #BasementBoy doesn't lose as much as #BunkerBoy with those looks. Trump needs Biden on the trail making mistakes, as both will do...Trump is news every day and his missteps are highlighted (properly, in many cases...though some things are stretches) in real time while Biden is making few appearances. I disagree with AMS and his bad people number; Perhaps he lumps a lot of people who simply disagree with him in as bad people. No, they just don't share your view of the world. |

Same as Hillary's 'deplorables' comment in 16. Hurt her immensely. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Everybody and I mean everybody is saying the defund the police movement will sink the Dems in Nov. 85% of American voters are vehemently against it, as any sane person would be. Notice Biden is hiding in his basement, he can't comment. No matter which side he takes he screws himself. It's wonderful how out of of touch the Leftie base is with reality.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I think the funny thing about the backlash on Biden’s comment is that most Republicans would agree, or perhaps stipulate a greater percentage, they only act up in arms about it because Biden said it.
