The AZ senate race is amazing...the SAME Republican candidate whose loss in 2018 flipped her seat the the Dems....is going to lose again in 2020, flipping that seat to the Dems also.

Martha McSally. American Hero.

Yes. McSally lost the race for Flake's seat when he decided not to run again (because Trump was openly campaigning against Flake) and then was appointed to John McCain's seat when he died.

Trump is costing Republicans two senate seats just by disrespecting John McCain, in life and then in death.

I've always thought that McCain's vote not to repeal the ACA had more to do with revenge against Trump than anything else. Given how important repeal of the ACA was to Trump's election, this was one way McCain could pay Trump back. It was Trump's best chance to repeal the ACA, and he was unable to do it because he had insulted the wrong guy.

And unfortunately of the ones who are registered to vote, too many are like my sister who do not follow any news, do not read, and really don’t believe that politics affects their lives materially enough that their vote will matter much anyway. People like her simply aren’t going to try to fact check or bother with research and details that make all the difference. Most tend to see things strictly from the perspective of their own experiences. For example, she caught COVID and had very weak symptoms and therefore thinks the whole pandemic isn't that serious. She doesn’t like trump but she thinks Biden is not that exciting and plans to vote for someone else or not at all. Unfortunately, she lives in Florida.

Does she not know that nearly 200,000 Americans have died from this and many more are dealing with longterm medical impairments from this virus? That the national debt and deficit have soared and that millions of Americans are out of work, that the economy has suffered a major contraction because this administration failed to do what every other developed country managed to do?

What does Trump need to do to get her to notice that he's the worst man alive for this job? Crash his car into her house?

I disagree.

Republicans actually did not want to flat out repeal the ACA. They only wanted to make it look like they did.

McCain's down vote was because it did not include a replacement, which is what the real campaign was about.

If that vote passed, it still had to go back to the House (Republican controlled at the time) which had their own version of a replacement that the Republican Senate would not pass.

The whole thing was about Republican's failure to create a replacement they could agree on.

They wasted two years and never came up with anything.

McCain's thumb down was an optic that played everywhere. It was more of a screw you to McConnell than to Trump.

He knew it wasn't going to pass in the House and the vote was only so McConnell could say he repealed Obamacare - but that didn't work.

Republicans Susan Collins and Lisa Mukowski also voted no. It would not have passed even if McCain voted yes with a Pence tie breaker. McCain's no mean there was no need for a tie breaker.

We have to remember that Trump promised to replace Obamacare with something better that covered everyone.

After taking office, he did nothing. Sure, two months ago he said something was coming in two weeks.

This is going to come up again in the debates.

He failed to deliver a big promise and now is trying to promise it again if re-elected.

Not sure if anyone mentioned this or not yet. but in the Town Hall thing, Trump said, "Herd Mentality".

The guy is an uneducated moron, just like his supporters. Shameful how far our country has fallen.

Not just Trump, remember that republicans (including McCain) spent 7+ years telling the voters that if they were returned to power they would repeal and replace the ACA with something better. After all those years of promises the voters gave them their chance and it turns out they had nothing. They were lying the whole time.

"Herd Mentality" is the election strategy.

That wasn't a mistake.

He has gotten the entire Republican Party in a herd mentality to applaud everything he does.

He wants to expand that herd mentality.

As far as policy, Republicans are not even trying to offer anything to improve the healthcare system.

Rigged and other die-hard Trump supporters I am going to tell you something that you will not believe but on some deep suppressed level you might know this (even though you will deny it).

Trump doesn't give a damn about you. Wait, now just hear me out on this.

Trump is very aware of germs and how they spread. He hates to be around sick people doesn't like it when someone sneezes near him. He has always known Covid is dangerous and is spread easily through the air (he said so). He takes numerous precautions for himself such as having everyone around him tested and at his rallies he keeps a distance from the crowd. That's smart to do right?

Yet knowing all this, he has indoor rallies and seems to encourage his supporters not to wear masks knowing this places them at risk.

If you care about someone, would you organize an event where they could be infected with Covid. Would you ever encourage someone you care about not to take precautions?

A good conman will always make the mark feel like he is a good friend and the conman is just trying to help him. But he is not. Trump is not your friend.

I know you don't believe this and most of you stopped reading when you found out this was critical of Trump. But you have been warned, HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOU!

Joking I see, but it clearly was a mistake. He was talking about COVID-19 and should have said "Herd Immunity".

You just linked a tweet that is labeled as Manipulated Media by Twitter.

The Republicans under Trump are now the party of dishonesty and disinformation. There's no reason to accept anything they say as true, unless you hear it from a more credible source. In this regard, they are in bed with Russia.

Trump and his conservative allies have ramped up a campaign of online disinformation in recent weeks, as The Washington Post’s Ashley Parker reported, with the president in particular tweeting out numerous false claims and misleadingly labeled videos. Earlier on Tuesday, Trump shared a tweet baselessly accusing Biden of being a pedophile.

Conservatives are paying teenagers to become internet trolls and post misinformation on social media.

Democrats lose again!!!!

Dan it's perfectly obvious that Trump's main qualification is that he owns the libs.

You don't really have to go any further than that, for 70% of spanky's support.

I hope they are giving these the kids the choice to opt out, with no effect on their scholarship.

Everybody knows that.

I like people that weren't impeached, ok, I hate to tell you.

Dementia Joe speaks gibberish and makes gaffes everyday and you say nothing. He called his campaign "Harris Biden" and you say nothing. Then he made this doozy:

And you still say nothing.

Elder abuse.

Enjoy your loss.

Not really, but even if it were so, you should ask yourself why that seems to be sufficient enough for a significant portion of the US population for qualification of a US president.

It's been said many times before - Trump is a symptom.
