    Not sure if anyone is keeping up with Trumps trial, but virtually all the witnesses so far appear to be as bad as each other. What a country :fail:

    Sort of but they are straying quite far from the core case which is campaign money was used and then siphoned off into stuff that's largely irrelevant to the criminal charge and frankly giving trump a major boost as the victim.

    The polls are showing he's headed for a massive boost now and could landslide the election.

    I think a landslide was inevitable anyway. Democrats never should have let Biden stand again.

    I fully expect Biden to get a 2nd term.

    I have a feeling while the youth vote might not turn out to help the female vote certainly will.

    "Your word in God's ear". :pray

    I hope you're right, Stret. Not that I think that Biden is a great President but anyone is better than this orange clown as President of the US. Trump would be a disaster, even more than his first term.

    Putin would be pleased, though.

    I'm fairly sure trump will win.

    No state will turn blue imo.

    As it stands Biden has lost a lot of the various minorities enough that they won't come out.

    Kennedy will make this a landslide as well.

    Trump is up in Georgia despite trying to subvert thst states democratic process.

    Trump is is well up in arizone despite interfering with thst States democratic process. Kennedy is killing Biden.

    Then you move to the 3 key states of michigan, wisconsin and pennsilyania. Trump is up by 2 in each with Kennedy taking 9 or 10% of the vote.

    Those 3 will decide the election. As long as the conspiracy nut Kennedy is running he is killing Bidens chances. Trump only needs pennsilyania to flip and Biden can't win.

    How has the US allowed a rematch between a 77 year old who is always in and out of court, and a doddering 81 year old? The world has gone mad.

    Because their supporters put them up.

    But not to worry a lunatic covid denier who admitted a worm crawled up inside his skull and ate a bit of his brain before dying is an alternative that about 10% of Americans think is a rational 3rd choice

    I'm sure that plays well with the gop voters and of course some people ignore that in certain communities as they get what they want.

    How he is so strong with Hispanic communities is an artifact of feeling more strongly about certain topics that they seem to about race. I find it all quite odd.

    Women and flooding back to Trump as well apparently. Why I have absolutely no idea but the polls suggest he looks the victim.in these court cases

    Donald Trump suggests Chinese migrants are forming an 'army' inside US in 'dehumanising' statements (msn.com)
    He is off his trolley, trouble is, it resounds with his thick as shit base!

    Donald Trump has made controversial comments claiming Chinese migrants moved to the US to build an "army" to attack the country.

    The former president made the inflammatory comments during a recent campaign rally where he said "military-age" men were coming to the United States and forming a migrant "army"

    "They're coming in from China - 31, 32,000 over the last few months - and they're all military age and they mostly are men," Trump said during a campaign rally last month in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania. "And it sounds like to me, are they trying to build a little army in our country? Is that what they're trying to do?"

    Asian people in the US already experienced a spike in hate incidents fueled by xenophobic rhetoric during the COVID-19 pandemic. "Trump's dehumanising rhetoric and blatant attacks against immigrant communities will, without question, only fuel more hate against not only Chinese immigrants but all Asian Americans in the US," Cynthia Choi, co-founder of Stop AAPI Hate and co-executive director of Chinese for Affirmative Action, said in a statement.

    Paranoia is the populists friend.

    It's classic goebels tactics.

    I was listening to radio in the car on the way home yesterday and they had a rabid trumpite type on from some USA radio show.

    He was boiling mad at this debate. Apparently trumps given Biden every advantage.

    No audience
    Mike control
    CNN
    Hosts as chosen by Biden (called anti trump)

    I've no idea if their stiff is true but they seem to be think trump has messed up here and if Biden can stay awake and not trip over his words then he just needs to look a president while trump fights with moderators and uses his time up blustering.

    This is typical Trump tactics. He'll probably withdraw from the debate citing the 'issues' you've mentioned, then bleat to his cult about how unfair it all was. He said he was going to testify in his ongoing trial, but lost his bottle when he got the chance.
