Yes or No: Joe Biden will win the presidency

Gotta stop ya right there. He doesn't have the moral high ground.

Yes Joe Biden will win and when he does I hope he does the following: 1. Stop air travel 2. Mobilize national guard to all major interstate high ways and ban interstate travel 3. Create fever clinics with national guard oversight. If you feel sick you get tested. If you are positive you stay in a dormitory like housing separated into 4 areas based on how sick you are. 14 day quarantine for non mask wearers, Low, Mild, severe. If you need ICU care you go to an ICU based on age priority. 4. Mask are mandatory. 14 day quarantine at fever clinic if caught without one 5. Mandatory contact tracing 6. Bi-weekly System to buy food based on voting precincts and streets. 7. Stay at home order. Anyone off their property will go to 14 day fever clinic. 8. Only true essential open. Pharmacy, grocery, hospital/healthcare workers, on call repair people for home issues. Nothing else. How’s that?

this thread isn't about coronavirus, bro. but while we're on the topic, 99.9% of people are so over it. Please keep your pontification relevant to the topic.

Biden won't have to win the election. Trump is doing everything he can to lose it - and more and more Republicans are realising this. Watch them cut him loose as they try to save their skins. They will call it "brand differentiation".

LOL at anyone thinking Gen Y will vote.

Explain what about my post is a joke. Also, resorting to calling people "boomer" all the time doesn't accomplish anything.

Because there is no evidence that he's any stronger with the black vote than he was in 2016, and he's more likely to be weaker.

People like Candace Owens, that Terrence guy and Trump himself shouting that he's at 40% or whatever isn't evidence.

Nope

I think trump has it all covid.

By the time the election comes around he'll have buried much of his base

I really hope USA will be free from that Trump thing. He's a big shame for America and to be the president in charge.

It's a screen name, dude. Spare me the whining. "nope" is exactly the bastian of openmindedness.

Trump voters are very proud of their support for him.

The Idea that people tell "lies" about who they are supporting is overblown and not borne out by fact.

Trump support with black people is not growing. Nothing indicates this. Candace Owens doesn't, Diamond and Silk don't, it's a lie Trump/GOP have been spinning for decades but nothing has meaningfully changed. Because GOP policy sucks. You could argue black support for Biden isn't as strong but they are not flocking to Trump.

Yep this guy couldn't possibly lose

How is it possible that out of approximately 182 million legally eligible adults in the USA that the real choice of a president this time only comes down to 2 meagerly qualified individuals, one who is obsessed with himself and the other obsessed with pleasing his political party. And both so old that their health, both physical and mental is also questionable. You mean to tell me that there aren't any other individuals with a balanced broad spectrum level of education and real life experience? And that includes history, law, finance, military experience and at least a basic understanding of psychology, commerce, ethics, logic and geography and respect for the work our forefathers put in to craft an awesome set of guidelines for government. There has to be someone out there that could out qualify the present lot to keep this election from being a clown show. Or would such a person just be too intelligent to waste their life on entering the political arena? I'd love to run, but the stress would probably kill me. Anybody third party out there in this country have the oo's to step up?

Umm...okay...

Having covid cases go up is not a danger. All it shows is that this virus is less lethal than people thought. It's not at all bad to see covid cases go up, that means we'll have herd immunity and the virus will die. People at risk should of course be careful, but if you think we can alleviate a flu virus by staying home, you're simply ignorant of infectious diseases and how humanity overcomes them.

If we were seeing huge amounts of deaths, or a high percentage of deaths among cases then I'd agree with you. But we're not.

Yeah definitely

Dude herd immunity would require like 200 million people get it in the US. Lets say death rate of .5% is 1 million people dying.

Yeah you bring up a good point.

I think it's just that people in the US have become more selfish and just want to make money and get out of it all. Nobody who has the intelligence and people skills to be good wants to go above and beyond to serve their country.

Biden supports truth over facts.

Biden might win because of a 3-letter word: “jobs.”
