Turning The Ballot Box Against Republicans

No matter how hard you try to sugarcoat Trump's atrocious way of handling Covid-19, you just can't deny the fact that most British and American publications have been incensed by Trump's contumely and antics.

He only chooses not to dissimulate his fascist tendencies when he tries to galvanize other racists like you by castigating liberalism and decrying the rule of law.

Shame on you, Trump!

Not as atrocious as Cuomo's. He is directly responsible for a needless loss of lives.

Only idiots could support this idiot without acknowleding he is in fact at best an idiot and at worst an incredibly incompetent spin merchant liar who relies on idiots for support.

Only you would make such dreadful and asinine comments. Cuomo is not the president of the United States; the preening Trump is. He had better step down if he wants to abdicate his duty.

It's fun if Trump wants to regale his supporters with made-believe tales of derring-do featuring this overweening opportunist. Yet it's a different matter for the American people because they need a whip-smart leader, not the former host of a TV show called The The Apprentice.

Much has been written about Trump's abysmal record as a business man, including the journalist who helped Trump write his first book. He told other journalists that he wish he hadn't written that book.

You simply object to talking about this because either you strive to disguise this fact or you also don't read like Trump.

McConnell vows end to enhanced unemployment benefits
The Senate majority leader took a hard line in a conference call with House Republicans.

05/20/2020 06:20 PM EDT

Mitch McConnell promised House Republicans on Wednesday that the beefed up unemployment benefits enacted earlier this spring "will not be in the next bill."

The Senate majority leader told the House GOP minority in an afternoon phone call that he is comfortable waiting to see how the nearly $3 trillion in coronavirus spending previously approved plays out before moving forward on the next relief legislation. And he told them the ultimate end-product won't look anything like House Democrats' $3 trillion package passed last week, according to a person briefed on the call.

While McConnell conceded more aid may be necessary in the coming weeks, he also repeated his insistence that liability reform be included in the next round of legislation to minimize lawsuits. And he said the $600 weekly boost in unemployment benefits won't continue — a vow he hadn't previously made.

McConnell warned against trial lawyer "vultures" ready to file lawsuits and said Republicans are "going to have to clean up the Democrats’ crazy policy that is paying people more to remain unemployed than they would earn if they went back to work," McConnell said.

The remarks amount to a hardening of McConnell's position and a dismissal of House Democrats' priorities before talks even begin. But as McConnell praised House Republicans for holding firm against Speaker Nancy Pelosi's legislation and mocked her proxy voting plan, Senate Democrats were getting opposite instructions during a midday telephone conference call.

Economist Mark Zandi told Senate Democratic committee leaders that Congress needs to extend the beefed-up unemployment insurance and move "quickly" to send more aid to states and cities. Zandi said those governments are "teetering on the financial edge," according to a person on the call, and predicted many more jobs could be lost without quicker action.

McConnell seemed unmoved a few hours later and said Congress needed to proceed deliberately on the next package.

Pretty hard tok investigate progressives for the witch hunts you want when trump keeps firing all the impartial inspectors general (who may start getting close to looking at his republican cronies)

Progressives make themselves look even goofier than their usual state of goofiness when they falsely accuse everyone of racism.

Not hard at all.

All it takes is ordering the FBI and IRS to do a thorough investigation/audit of a given progressive.

If that progressive hasn't done anything wrong, then they won't have anything to worry about.

But then the progressives will start witch-hunting the FBI and IRS for witch-hunting them in retaliation for their witch-hunting.

Comment:
Putin still blackmailing Trump...

Interesting. Is the EU going to try to preserve their end of the agreement with Russia?

Progressives already hate law enforcement and try to lynch them whenever possible. There is little more that progressives can do beyond what they are already doing.

So your point is that witch-hunting them back produces a balance of power?

What the Latest Polls Say About Joe Biden vs. Donald Trump in the 2020 Election
BY MATTHEW IMPELLI ON 5/21/20 AT 6:00 AM EDT

With the presidential election less than six months away, recent national polls show presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden with a lead over President Donald Trump.

According to a new Quinnipiac University poll, 50 percent of voters said they would vote for Biden if the election were today, while 39 percent favored Trump. The former vice president's 11-point lead over Trump is an increase from a previous Quinnipiac poll, published April 8, that showed Biden with a 49 percent to 41 percent lead over Trump.

"What does the 11-point Biden lead tell us? At best for Team Trump, it says voter confidence in President Trump is shaky. At worst for them, as coronavirus cases rise, Trump's judgement is questioned—and November looms," Quinnipiac University polling analyst Tim Malloy said in a statement. The poll surveyed 1,323 registered voters from May 14 to 18 and had a margin of error of plus or minus 2.7 percentage points.

In another recent poll, conducted by CNBC/Change Research, Biden has a slightly smaller advantage over the president. This poll surveyed 1,424 likely voters from May 15 to 17 and found Biden receiving 48 percent, while 45 percent went for Trump. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points.

The Economist/YouGov also conducted a poll from May 17 to 19 and found Biden with a 5-point lead over Trump, as the former vice president received 47 percent and Trump 42 percent. This poll surveyed 1,500 U.S. adults and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

Both the Quinnipiac poll and the CNBC/Change Research survey showed Biden ahead of Trump in terms of who Americans think would better handle the coronavirus outbreak. According to the Quinnipiac poll, 55 percent of registered voters said Biden would better handle the outbreak, while 39 percent favored Trump. In the CNBC/Change Research poll, 50 percent said Biden, compared with 43 percent for Trump.

The Economist/YouGov poll did not ask respondents who they think would better handle the outbreak, but it did reveal Americans' confidence in Trump's response. According to the poll, 37 percent said they felt confident with that response, but 51 percent said they felt uneasy.

Despite Biden's lead over Trump nationally, another poll conducted by CNBC/Change Research, shows the president with a slim lead over Biden in a number of key battleground states. It surveyed 5,408 likely voters in Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and found Trump had a 48-46 percent lead over Biden.

Whenever there is voting of any kind, it's a given that if there are progressives, they are doing their best to cheat.
