    She never used to be this way. She married a farm boy a couple years ago and honestly, she just says what he thinks now (and he ain't the brightest bulb) and has become as dumb as a post. It's so frustrating, because she will go to the ends of the earth for people in her inner circle, but if you're a visible minority, she pretty much wants nothing to do with you. She gets all of her news from Facebook and believes all of the conspiracies you can think of.

    If Biden were smart, he'd attack Trump on his actions against China and the effect its had on US farmers (eg, corn at $3 a bushel). Biden needs to focus more on Trump's policy failures and its effect on US citizens like gutting Medicare/Social Security etc. and not getting consumed by Trump's hyperbolic rhetoric. The latter just plays into Trump's strategy.

    Unfortunate when people go so far down a specific rabbit hole that you can't help them out of it.

    May I ask where the farm boy came from? Testing a theory...lol

    I think you may see Biden change strategies in the next debates. I'm sure his advisors have pointed out that sinking to Trump's level of insults and bickering won't give him any positive poll boosting, he just needs to keep his cool, though I know deep down he just wants to walk over and start throwing haymakers. Both candidates performances have left a bad impression on most voter's minds, but Biden can turn that impression around more easily than Trump is capable of doing.

    The next moderator will also re-asses how to possibly keep a handle on the debate as well.

    ...and that's a great point. Trump's strategy is to pander to anyone he believes will vote for him and turn-off the others from voting altogether with his rhetoric. Biden has to focus on convincing the others to vote for him. Getting roped into slinging insults won't achieve that.

    It's embarrassing that this needs to be done, but it needs to be done. It shouldn't come down to who can be the loudest.

    Trump will not say anything harsh against anyone who supports him. He is all ego. Anyone who likes Trump, or pretends to like Trump, must be a fine person. Be it Putiin, Kim Jong Un, Hannity, Bat shit crazy doctors, the Proud Boys or any other right wing militant group, it makes no difference. If you stroke his ego, you are on his side and you can do no wrong. Hell, if ISIS started wearing "Make America Great Again" hats Trump would likely start saying nice things about them too.

    He is the most easily manipulated President America has ever had. Putin doesn't need any 'pee tapes'. He just needs to compliment the imbecile and he gets carte blanche to do as he pleases.

    I find it hard to believe that people who I share the same interest in fantasy hockey are so easily fooled by media and are apparently deaf too.

    I consistently find it amazing that Trump has somehow convinced folks that "the media" are all somehow working together (even though they are competing for viewers and readers, and even though the criticism of him comes from international and national news organizations) to take down Trump (who really is their best seller, regardless of how he does and should financially benefit them). It's the most illogical thing ever. He started dropping the idea of "fake news" early (Remember "alternative facts" as early as January 2017?) and his base's desperate desire to accept him force them to accept whatever trash comes from his mouth.

    Fake News. Media Hoax. 2+2=5. We've always been at war with Eastasia.

    Such a perfect rebuttal post. Well played lobo.

    Apparently Trump has even lost the vote of die hard Trumpsters Scott Adams (who compared Trump to Jesus in his 2016) over his inability to denounce white supremacists in Tuesdays debate.
