The Young Turks’ Emma Vigeland breaks down why Tucker Carlson's Joe Biden attacks are unfortunately accurate.




This is The young Turks, not some right wing nut job, The young Turks audience are core democrat voters in the younger generation.

Now this is a couple of months old and since this was made Trump has completely messed up the Covid-19 crisis, but Biden has been hiding out in his basement for 3 months, so the point still stands that maybe he wouldn't be the man to get us through this either.


It's all a far cry from 2008 when I watched Obama speak and really had a feeling that this was a man who was going to change the world, his words sent shivers down my spine, he is such a great orator and despite the fact his presidency was hindered by the Republicans in the House stopping up to 500 bills passing he is still the best President in a long time.

He's been at home, mostly (above).

Has anyone informed you that there's a pandemic going around?

Oh yes, sorry, because of his age (77) he has had to stay at home for three months and avoid any contact with the press where at all possible to avoid infection.


My mistake.


The far younger (74) Trump however seems to have a much better ability to leave the house.

(unless of course there are protesters outside and then he likes the bunker as well.)

Resulting in many COVID infections and directly leading to unnecessary loss of life.

Don't shoot the messenger, I only shared the Young Turks clip, and then stated a fact that Biden hasn't been doing much of late.


Then you have picked out just this little bit of a far larger post,

And then tried to infer I am somehow ignorant about the pandemic?

Why not have a chat about the contents of the clip, or the integrity of the Young Turks, or something other than just a pedantic attempt at a snipe.

I don't ever recall asking you for a bun fight.

Biden adhered to the medical advice to stay home, but whilst doing ran a sucessful podcast called 'here's the deal'
https://joebiden.com/heres-the-deal/

He was also pretty active over twitter, zoom etc.

The charge that Biden stayed at home and hid is because trumpettes have nothing else they can attack Biden over

Since coming out Bidens made many interviews, meetings. He even went to churches without the need to gas people out the way
It doesn't take much to see what he's been up to, i.e.

I imagine he has enough hard evidence to get Trump shot.

It was McConnell who protected Trump from being impeached, he certainly has the clout in the GOP and the senate to have Trump removed from office.

However I see it as a case of too little, too late. Replacing Trump at this stage won't bring back the voters he's lost.

And your thoughts on the Young Turks piece that prompted the conversation but has been conveniently ignored?

Or are the Young Turks just Trumpettes?

I doubt that, but people will distance themselves. McConnell will point out that he needs the GOP and he will withdraw his support and he'll end up very unpopular. Make the point he can go out on top, stroke his ego etc. He can't actually force him out unless they have another impeachment

Good new ad by Biden

“This job is about protecting Americans, not tear gassing them for a photo op.”

Stephen Millers speech? One wonders about hisupbringing, it certainly wasn't cristian.
"There is a new far-left fascism that demands absolute allegiance ... this left-wing cultural revolution is designed to overthrow the American revolution"
The one where he struggled to get out many words?
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/...

Or the one today where he claimed: “Our country is coming back, our jobs numbers are spectacular, a lot of things are happening that people don’t quite see yet,” he said. “We’re on our way to a tremendous victory. It’s going to happen and it’s going to happen big. Our country will be greater than ever before.”

The United States reported 52,104 new cases yesterday, for perspective South Korea: 63 cases

Edit: Anyhow there's a thread for discussing trump. This is about the election

Post repeatedly about Biden's cognitive decline.

Post a Trump speech where he drones along like a drunk and stumbles over simple words. Claim it up as a victory for Trump.

Nice one Noodle.

Thats all that trumps has to use against Biden, even though it's untrue, yet we know one of trumps tells is to project his problems onto others as a deflection, a distraction. trump’s health and cognitive abilities are shown to be further deteriorating nearly every time he appears in public.

The more he's in public, the more it becomes obvious, like stumbling over words, hanging onto the lectern
"Swift and swippy...sweeping"
