Who's winning?

It's a race after all! Do we have polls telling us how many points Biden is leading by? Do we have polls assuring us that Biden will be the next president? I mean, I remember that sort of thing leading up to the last presidential election. Do you all remember how that worked out?

Last poll I saw was:

Trump 53
Biden 42
Other 5

The poll had a plus/minus of 4.

It's only June. Things will change in the next 90 days. It is very possible Biden will not be the nominee. His handlers are struggling to keep Biden going. Help might be on the way for the Party.

I think a vote for Biden is really a vote for his VP pick. One of those people who wasn’t good enough to be the Presidential nominee. It’s looking like another election where we have to choose who to vote against instead of who to vote for.

Who is ready for poll season? I can't wait until we get a new one every 90 minutes. It's so exciting!!!!

Nobody wins dude.

Humor yourself while you can.

Nobody gets out of this alive.

Only degrees of losing!

It's the economy stupid!

I agree.

I wonder if he has enough gas left in the tank.
The lockdown and isolation has really worked to his benefit.
Now that his voters are out, about and protecting their right to protest,

... he's going to have to expose himself.

PS - I'm voting for the woman candidate,
not the really old white man, or orange man...

China is winning.

As anti-racism protests sweep across the US, Beijing has seized upon them to hit back at Washington for supporting last year's Hong Kong pro-democracy demonstrations.
Chinese state media have given extensive coverage to the protests, highlighting the chaotic scenes and alleged police brutality in America to claim that China enjoys greater social stability.
Speaking to an international audience, Chinese diplomats are attempting to portray Beijing as a responsible global leader, standing in solidarity with other countries in condemning the racial disparity and injustice in the US.

The US and china treat protesters the same.

Bring in the troops, beat the shit out of americans until america is great again!

I see who's whining.

“He has maxed out his base. He’s got his 40% and will keep it, but it isn’t growing. His polls are down, he has historically high negatives. As for suburban women, they’d crawl over broken husbands to vote him out.

He is proud of his many billionaire friends and think they love him. They don’t. Their support is utterly transactional. They’re embarrassed by him. When they begin to think he won’t be re-elected they will turn, and it will be bloody and on a dime.

This will not end well. With his timing he’d know it. He should give an Oval Office address announcing he’s leaving: “America, you don’t deserve me.” Truer words have never been spoken in that old place. And he won’t be outshone by his successor. Network producers will listen to Mike Pence once and say, “Let’s do ‘Shark Week.’ ” But you know, America could use a shark week.“
