The mayor got hell and back for cancelling the St. Patty's Day parade two weeks later... could you imagine if she cancelled Mardi Gras? Florida & Spring Breakers we're another thing of stupid tho There was cause of concern internally (I just read an article about pneumonia cases suspiciously rising in January & February in Lousiana already), but the information wasn't released to general public and health officials didn't really put 2 and 2 together Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presidents usually get more popular amongst a pandemic (despite how many flaws). If Biden is tied during what when Trump should CRUSH any other candidate is a good insight.

ShayCristoforo 10,607 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Can someone explain to me why so many Americans like him? Get the pinot ready, because it's turtle time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziggy 14,050 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Well yeah since Trump is on TV every day and Biden is...somewhere?? People are tuning into the Trump addresses every day so he could and is saying nonsense but to a large group it doesn’t matter because he’s saying *something* and has doctors next to him. Contrast with Biden who has shown no visible leadership, really. Every network is covering trump because he’s the president and people don’t have anything else to do and are scared so they watch, Biden has no coverage. This isn’t remotely surprising lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow 6,697 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 In a popular vote, it's a tie, so Biden still has plenty of momentum which is somewhat impressive given we've seen so little of him lately. There is no reason to worry yet, but this should still galvanize liberals into getting involved and aiding this campaign. Let us see polls going into June. However, should Bernie remain in the race at this point? I wish we could enlist Cuomo, though. Stand in the light, cast your shadow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole reason people bring up that stat 15%/Bernie stat is bc they’re confused as to how a democrat can Switch like that. I truly don’t know what you’re on about bc no one said Trump and McCain are twins Bernie isn’t a democrat and that’s why people actually like him. Best favorables. Most supported platform - by Dem voter’s stance. He’s clearly better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorusRa2 5,005 Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Y’all keep thinking Trump isn’t going to win but you wait. Trump is going to be so mean to Joe Biden in the general that I’m going to have to feel sorry for him. On 3/29/2020 at 7:26 PM, Doot said: Aren't these polls meaningless though if the deciding vote ultimately ends up being the electoral college and not the voters anyway? An electoral college win is (generally) a 3%+ nationwide win. So if it’s this close that means it’s going to basically be decided by the rust belt. Which I should remind you that Trump has been consistently tied in Wisconsin or winning. And even if the democrats take Michigan and Pennsylvania, Trump winning Wisconsin gives him the electoral college win by 2 electoral votes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
