    Such an odd choice.

    Seems like Susan Rice or even Keisha Bottoms would have been a less...skeletoney candidate.

    Well, at least this way we'll get to see Tulsi Gabbatd in the spotlight again.

    I don't know a ton about Susan Rice, but I know she was villainized for being a messenger in the Benghazi incident. Right-wing media would have loved picking up Benghazi 2.0. Even if there aren't skeletons, Republicans will figure out how to make them, so that honestly doesn't matter.

    Bottomline though, at Biden's age he needed to pick someone with the very real thought that they could wind up President, and Kamala Harris has shown that she at least wants that role.

    She's a cop.
    And so is Rice.
    Probably not the right time for the Dems to put top cop bosses in charge.
    Kamala has too many dead and imprisoned poor blacks and browns.
    She knows how to stick to her shtick and sell it well. She's a pro at the hypocrisy game of politics and can Jedi mind trick the faithful and the superstitious Democrats.

    villainized for being a messenger?
    you mean of that outrageous lie she told over and over that a video clip caused 4 Americans to be left for dead?
    btw the guy who made that clip was jailed and finally released destitute and hated
    eh his life doesn't matter
    at least Rice is an actual black since that seems all important

    She has some skeletons.
    They still got lots of calcium on em.
    And she's got some not so great ideas too.
    For her to be good is too much to ask for.
    But perfect is the enemy.
    Tulsi isn't good enough
    But she's pretty fine.
    And thatl fly.

    Should be a three team race.
    Too bad she wants to protect her seat.
    And since she can't be good maybe she could do good instead.

    This kinda proves my point though, Susan Rice has baggage one way or the other.

    Disingenuous, fake, insincere.
    Like every Democrat.
    If this ticket wins, it's because the media has been so loud and persistent that they've created enough negative perception of POTUS that people turn out to vote against him.
    No other reason.
    Except certain voter fraud, of course.

    I think Trump's immensely shitty handling of COVID-19 is one good reason.
    Even if he'd handled it just as shitty, but projected reason and confidence, he could have been unbeatable. Remember how people loved Rudy Giuliani after 9/11? All he had to do was that. Instead he's up there saying people should huff bleach.

    No other reason? Trump is the Rob Manfred of POTUS’s. The guy sucks ass at being President.

    China will back down.
    They will sue for peace.
    This deal with Iran and the moves with HK and taiwan is their last stand.
    The generals in China are afraid of trump.
    The CCP is getting weak.
    That's why they just purchased Iran.
    The people in Iran are not happy with the mullahs cashing out.
    China is gonna get first dibs on Iran's oil and any other Iranian resource. At a steep discount for Chinese companies.
    What's russia gonna do.

    Because the mullahs army weekends as hezbolla.
    And hezbolla gears and trains hamas.
    Which makes china directly linked to these Shia based groups.
    Lebanon wants to be free of Iranian influence.
    France is trying to be the saviour.
    Should be the empire.

    I don't think anyone died unnecessarily due to any decision the president did or didn't make and I don't think people give enough credit to the administration when it comes to ventilators, retrofitting ships and other facilities to help uncooperative parts of this country handle the pandemic,etc. To flat out call it a botched response doesn't register with me but I will chalk that up to my ignorance or knowing too much that isn't so.

    However...What I do know for certain is that there is NOTHING this president could have done to increase his popularity in the way Guliani or W Bush did during 9/11. Not today. Not in this America. Not with 96 percent negative media coverage and governors who undermine the federal government at every turn for no other reason than tearing him down. Trump is damned if he does. Damned if he doesn't. Whatever he says, his enemies will do the opposite. The China ban was racist. He acted too soon. Then they say he acted too late. He created a task force in January. Oh, but what about Feb? Goal post moved. "We need ventilators!!"...no person who needed a ventilator was denied a ventilator. So they move on to the next thing. Sorry. There's no way a "good response" or "projecting confidence" would put the election in the bag for him in this climate. Nothing will satisfy.
