I've totally lost interest in the betting odds of the
presidential race. I came to realize all it takes to
skew the results is for one billionaire lib to make
a big bet on Biden, say $20,000, It totally tips Biden
into the favorable category. So the results are
meaningless. They don't reflect anything. That's
what happened in 2016.

Yesterday, Biden blamed the Republican Congress for not renegotiating NAFTA under Obama.

Obama never tried to renegotiate Nafta.

Should someone tell him that Congress does not negotiate treaties?

I’ve solved the situation for you. Just let the police approach everyone with the business end of the gun pointed at you. Afraid? The manly man shouldn’t be.


I'm basically fine with that.

I’m guessing this means that they’re turning against Donny again?

I think you have that backwards EB. If the bookies have too much money on Biden they will increase the odds on Trump to get more on him trying to balance their exposure.

Some rich guy put a $16,000 bet
on Biden this week and totally
messed up the odds. Screw that,
betting odds are meaningless if
they can be manipulated that
easily.

That's a good point. I can totally see someone like George Soros getting worried about the coming Trump landslide and throwing $20,000 on Creepy Joe to skew the numbers to keep the libbies from panicking. ($20K and even $200K is chump change to him.) Good call.

I’m detecting less confidence amongst our righties at Donny’s prospects.

That’s why you should never drink the Kool-Aid right after the conventions. Gotta wait a couple weeks to let things settle back down.

WTF? First Norway nominated Trump for
the peace prize, now Sweden has
nominated him for a 2nd one?

“For his merit, I think he has done more trying to create peace between nations than most other peace prize nominees."

Are they nuts? Trump is a bigot and
a war monger, he's a racist who
hates Jews and everybody else,
according to Joe Biden. Just
yesterday Sleepy Joe called Trump's
work in the Middle East a 'peace
sham'. Somebody call Sweden and
let them know.. lol
