The Official Former President Trump thread

[Detournement]

 

[Savage Henry]

So far anyway, Biden has won more convincingly with much higher turnout than Hillary did and seems to be winning that sort of pissed off rust belt demographic quite well. It's funny to see how much people actually hated Hillary. I think he can win but it'll be a shitfest.
You do get the feeling though that he's capable of having an 'episode' at any moment though.

Right. While he’s far from my ideal candidate policy wise, the numbers support Biden as absolutely the right choice to win those rust belts. It’s deeply disturbing that those halfwits are on which the election holds, but here we are.

If Trump wasn’t deathly afraid of Joe Biden, he wouldn’t have committed so many impeachable crimes to try and derail his bid.

Millennials  getting all enthusiastic for Bernie until it means they actually have to go out and pull a lever or tick a piece of paper. And then they'll blame the boomers for the result.

Yup. Never rely on the youth vote. They never turn up.

Biden won't be the candidate. He will be stood down for HRC or Harris. 

Who would you rather lose if it came to Harris v Trump? 

[NotThePars]

It’s not a conspiracy to suggest Biden is clearly losing his marbles. He might have more personal likability than Clinton but his brain is sewage hence why they’ll try and limit his public appearances.

That clip of him telling that guy he’s full of shit is class though. Fair play.

Harris won't win anyway but Trump is still possibly the lesser evil due to him only having four years left and creating another opportunity for a progressive Dem in 2024.

Presumably that was your thinking in 2016.

Or alternatively split the difference and have Biden only serve one term.

Nah, it’s Trump out at all costs I reckon.

Yes to quote Uncle Joe they are both worse. 

(Unless you live in Syria then Trump is clearly better).

Biden has a touch of the Trump about him in that he’d usually have sunk without trace by now with some of his antics. Bloomberg got absolutely torn into for an under-par debate while Uncle Joe is wandering around looking for an ice cream cone and having a pop at some youngsters for standing in his garden.

I think he’ll win the election but who’s actually going to be the President?

[Detournement]

Trump's tax cuts have bought him a lot of establishment loyalty. Once Bernie is sunk they will open their guns on Biden.

I'll do it.  I have been looking for a new interest and my dementia isn't nearly as advanced as Biden's.

Also the headline "Arab in control of White House" would be great fun.

Trump, and it's not close. Trump isn't the issue, he's only interested in the Presidency to stuff as much cash in his pockets as he can; it's the fact he's shouting squirrel and folks are focusing on that while the DOJ has gone from being non-partisan to actively weaponised, the courts are being stacked full of wingnuts of age to serve many many years and immigration policy has been handed off to a Jewish Nazi incel. Perfect shouldn't be the enemy of good; or in this case, while it's giant douche vs turd sandwich, the bread for the turd sandwich is hankies full of coronavirus, so giant douche wins.

Aye. Some people think that the only way to make the dumb proles wake up and vote for a pristine Socialist candidate is 4 more years of the same.

Bernie's a man before his time unfortunately. Maybe in 2050 the country will be ready for President Ocasio-Cortez.

Can’t stand Biden but he’s going to be the Democratic candidate and he’s a better option than Trump so hopefully he will beat him.  

If he doesn’t beat Trump I wonder who the Democratic Party officials will blame. 

[DeeTillEhDeh]

In some states Biden out polled Sanders by almost 9 to 1 amongst black voters. Biden will win the nomination because a lot of black voters effectively see him as an Obama endorsed candidate.

A lot of Black leaders endorse him, no idea why.

Can confirm that "This dementia riddled right wing sex case is *marginally* less awful than the other one, so go big on him" is exactly how folk over here are thinking.
