That won't help the gun violence problem at all where it counts the most, in our inner cities. The only thing that would put a significant dent in inner city shooting would be to completely outlaw handguns, nationwide, and even then there are enough lying around now to continue the killing for another 20 years.

Anathema- Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 You know, I was skeptical of the notion that the politics of the democratic nominee didn't matter much for the attacks Republicans would try. In some sense that's true, but the attempt to smear Biden as a socialist are so laughably bad that I think I was wrong. It would appear to matter very much that nobody actually believes Biden is this socialist Trojan horse. ...despite that being the actual literal campaign.

SuperSpreader Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 We'll see what happens in November, but Biden is a known entity. This isn't Kerry who most Americans didn't know or Clinton who was already hated and they spent 30 years making a villain. I suspect Biden is perceived generally as a imperfect good guy who believes in doing the right thing, he isn't gonna run us off a cliff and is probably going to delegate a lot to experts. 🤷♂️ That's sorta what you want?

CitizenVectron Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Teens "going to war" with Trump over administration's remarks about banning TikTok. Quote But young people are looking for ways to make their voices heard, even if some of them can’t yet vote. Last month, many young people organized through TikTok to sign up to attend Trump’s first post-shutdown campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, but then didn’t show up. The Trump campaign denied the online organizing effort contributed to lower-than-expected attendance. Anecdotally, even in Canada teenagers are excited at the prospect of doing anything they can to help take down Trump. This article mostly refers to efforts to review-bomb the Trump apps, but I imagine we'll be seeing more concerted efforts to interfere with data collection and event bookings, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Four months to go, dynamics of the race can change, voter disenfranchisement, etc. etc. But they're on the defensive in so, so many places that they didn't have to concern themselves with at all in 2016 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massdriver Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I wish we could just have the election now. I think Biden would win and Trump's reign would be over.

Massdriver Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I think the most likely scenario is Trump will cast as much doubt as possible on the results, claiming mail in ballot fraud and illegal voting if he loses. If it gains traction, he may feel like he could try to pull something more drastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricofoley Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I could see maybe a mass resigning & replacement of any conservative judges that are near retirement age that haven't already been replaced, since that's one thing that they could do without involving the House. If they controlled both houses of Congress, you're right, they absolutely would run the Wisconsin playbook and try and kneecap the power of the presidency.
