Kamala Harris is VP Pick

Chosen because of her race and gender....you have to be offended about the belittlement of women, as she clearly wasn't chosen for her qualifications by an old white guy. I think her family owed slaves too

Can say the same about any of them.

Pence is only VP because he's a white evangelical christian male, they felt they needed to counterbalance the 'less than traditional christian' president.

As it happens, I don't think it really mattered. Those voters are happy to ignore all the filth, they're delighted with the rest of the 'Trump package' so to speak.

Ehh, honestly 4 more years of Trump just might be what this country needs in order to move further to the left. If the current chaos isn't enough for people to realize that in order keep up with the rest of the world we need progress and not more of the same than maybe another 4 years will help. I am fine waiting. The alternative isn't really all that much more attractive. If you turn off the TV and live your life you might feel the same.

I think you're being a big troll. I would find this uncompromising and combative style difficult in person very quickly and would stop talking to you. But there is a lot of suffering and even death in the next four years of Trump, and there may not be much of a country to move left after. Vote in the primaries, states, and congressional elections. Hold feet to the fire. Lots of people dont have the luxury of waiting four years, and Trump will do nothing about climate change. Biden could with a big enough progressive push. Especially because he likely wont run for re-election.

The highest increase in the money printed happened during the weeks ending 25 March and 1 April, when the assets of the Fed went up by 12.6% and 10.6%, respectively.

Over a three-and-a-half-month period, the US Federal Reserve, the American central bank, has printed a little over $3 trillion in order to counter the economic impact of covid-19.

The Fed prints money (or actually creates it digitally) and then uses that money to buy bonds. On February 26, the size of the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet was $4.16 trillion. By June 10, this had jumped to $7.17 trillion. Hence, over a period of three-and-a-half months, the Fed printed and pumped $3 trillion into the economy. This money was pumped into the economy by buying bonds from financial institutions.

And this:

Repo operations: The Fed has vastly expanded the scope of its repurchase agreement (repo) operations to funnel cash to money markets and is now essentially offering an unlimited amount of money. The repo market is where firms borrow and lend cash and securities short-term, usually overnight. Disruptions in the repo market affect the federal funds rate, the Fed’s primary tool for achieving its price stability and employment mandate. The Fed’s facility makes cash available to the primary dealers in exchange for Treasury and other government-backed securities. Before coronavirus turmoil hit the market, the Fed was offering $100 billion in overnight repo and $20 billion in two-week repo. It has greatly expanded the program—both in the amounts offered and the length of the loans. It is offering $1 trillion in daily overnight repo, and $500 billion in one month and $500 billion in three-month repo.

Let the Dems win in 2020

Nikki Haley and Jim Jordan or Marco Rubio will clean up the democratic slim in 2024

Yeah, she's ineligible because she was born in Oakland, CA. Californians aren't "real" Americans. ;-)

You are being clever with your language now. Yesterday, you stated Fed printed 3 trillion additional dollars. Now, you are more or less agreeing with me. Fed increased liquidity by increasing money supply, which includes M-2 & M-3. Once money supply is increased by increasing money market funds which are short term debt, then T-Bills, T-Notes and T-Bonds go to market. Now your saying printing digitally. As long as someone or organizations or nations are on the other side willing to buy into money market accounts, purchase T-Bills, T-Notes & T-Bonds, it is all okay.

If the democrats win they will make it so no republican can ever win the election again. They want to let illegal immigrants vote. There are at least 11 million illegals, many estimates say there are over 20 million illegals.

Schools and media are pushing a severely liberal agenda and with democrats in control the media and schools will have free reign to lie and brainwash without any accountability. And we're already seeing conservative censorship, it's going to get MUCH worse if democrats are in control.

Also mail in voting and ballot harvesting heavily favor democrats. This is an existential election for republicans and independents.

She is just a gushing fake. Will do anything for power. She has to be drooling as she sees how feeble and diminished Joe is healthwise.

All of her accusations of Joe are now out the window. She's a pure fake

They ended in 2016.

Haley would be a good candidate. Rubio already has shown that he is a train wreck on the national stage. Jim Jordan would be able to ride the Trump train, but would get crushed by a long line of Ohio State wrestlers coming forward with info about how Jordan let them get sexually assaulted and did nothing to stop it. He is also about as charismatic as a vacuum cleaner.

Tom Cotton is supposedly the heir apparent. He could ride the Trump train and possibly win back some never Trumpers. But I think he has some Rubio potential to be a complete dud on the national stage.

To you and all the other Trump supporters:

Are we to believe that Trump giving life to this birther crap regarding Kamala isn’t racist? You people deny, deny, deny that he is racist but he continually says sh*t like this. When is someone on the right gonna have balls big enough to say YES Trump is a racist but I like his policies so I’m willing to overlook it? Being a racist isn’t a big deal to me.

It's no more racist than Biden picking Kamala Harris solely based on the color of her skin.

If you compare the 2, Biden is OBJECTIVELY more racist. In the past few months he's had to apologize for saying you ain't black if you don't support him, and for saying black people aren't diverse. He's also recently said poor people are just as smart as white people. Years ago he said he doesn't want his kids growing up in a racial jungle. Biden was the author of the 1994 crime bill that TARGETED blacks. Guess who ended it? TRUMP

So you are saying yes, Trump is racist but so is Biden?

Joe obviously forgot all the bad things she said about him at the debates. Of course he can't remember what time the nurses bring out the jello tray either.

Attorney General of a state that's bigger than most countries, a U.S. Senator, and a former candidate for President, and you think she was picked solely based on the color of her skin?

Now do Melania.

As opposed to the men who run for office. Their motives are always altruistic!
