Internet rule #2: avoid comment on controversial topics by using ad hominem attacks against the people who bring them up to kickstart dialogue. I'm guessing this means you're not a fan of Critical Race Theory indoctrination, but you're afraid to admit it because it undermines your support for Joe.

None of these clowns we end up electing have a true heartbeat on the people they represent. But most are savvy enough to fake it. Trumps the 1st president in history that didnt have any problem exposing himself to that fact

Nobody else. All good. I didnt take offense. Trump is the type of guy i have always despised in heart and mind. Yea i supported him as president but only because wasnt a life time politician and i was (am)sick and tired of politicians and their talk, flip flooping, corruption, and zero results. i was wrong. now back to being sick and tired of lifetime politicians who talk, flip flop, corrrupt, and dont get results its a sheete sandwich but we gotta eat

Agree on your 1st sentence wholeheartedly. But dont expect far left libs to demand action agAinst perceived or real injustices while they have a sitting potus. "Its all good in the hood now” so to speak. Look no further than our very own George floyd thread and how it isnt even getting any traffic since the election for a microcosm of my prediction

I mean, BLM kicked off during the Obama Administration. And they weren't shy about hitting the streets back then. Trump poured gasoline on the fire, so it became more front page-worthy from a media standpoint...but they were out there.

I am sure they will go back to giving us material once Agent Orange is unemployed.

I think they will modify this thru a throw out and replace two step process. That way Biden can say he overturned Trump's ban and reinstated the teaching. That will pacify the progressives. He can then put something in place that is actually useful.
November 10, 20205 yr Oh my God MAGAts, shut the hell up about voter fraud. You’re killing the conservative cause. It’s Fn Bizarro 2016 liberal whining. Just shut up. there’s no GD voter fraud. Why the hell haven’t the centrists on both sides rose up and snuffed out the extremists is beyond me.

November 10, 20205 yr In many respects, Biden is coming into a pretty good situation. The economy is recovering and appears to be on pace to boom after Covid. The market has reacted very positively to Biden's win and big business seems generally happy. Small business, on the other hand, is in a state of desperation and badly needs stimulus. If I were Biden I'd very publicly ask Nancy to play ball now to try to get something through before his inauguration. That way, Biden gets credit for the action, but not the added debt. He can also point to the stimulus as an example of his ability to bring people together and get things done. As I've stated before, by the time Biden is inaugurated I think we will be distributing vaccine and the most at risk among us should be protected. Biden's job then becomes managing the the country out of the pandemic, ensuring that the virus is held at bay and keeping the economy rolling. The media will likely shift the narrative from cases to death rate and help him here. All that being said, I think he will have two major challenges. This first, and most obvious is delivering for the progressive left. In many ways it would be better for Biden if the Senate stays Republican. This gives him the ability to push for more lefty policies to give the impression that he is progressive but very little of that will pass...leaving him with a legacy that is palatable for the masses. If the Senate flips blue, he is going to have to manage the expectations of the progressives with the clear, more moderate expectations of the nation. To be honest, I don't think Biden is a strong enough leader to manage this second scenario...but time will tell. The second challenge is that the white working class is going to become difficult and loud once they realize that Trump really did lose. Biden was largely selected because he can speak to this demographic. He's going to need to find a way to deliver for them to try to bring at least some of them back into the democrat fold. Unfortunately, I think he will do this through labor, which has always been his wheelhouse (and also the place I disagree with him most). Re-establishing the connection with the white working class and doing it through the unionization is going to be a difficult task for him...but one that will pay dividends in the polls if he can do it.
