My point is that if this was a one-off occurrence you might cut him some slack, but you could literally write a book or even two of these clever "musings".
Anyone with a brain would engage it before uttering such fuckwittery.

The press conferences are funny because if anyone questions him he just talks all over then shouting "your fake and it's all fake news."
It's the most dignified display of considered intellectual response I've ever seen.

And I agree Biden isn't much better, but he's not currently actually in charge.

To reiterate what has been said many times. Simplistically, Biden (falsely) looks "good" on the surface because most of the media is virulently anti-Trump. If Trump tosses a morsel that the media can twist into an anti-Trump eating frenzy, they do so with big scary headlines. President Trump, as the current President, should receive "extra" scrutiny, but fair coverage by the press. Nevertheless, Biden could become President, and if the (fair and balanced) media fails to properly vet Biden, even though at this time he is a candidate, his election could result in an administration that would be disastrous for the nation.

Well written as usual!

Remember Star Trek The Motion Picture? V'Ger severed it's own communication so as not to receive the message, It's like that.
 
Speaking of hypocrites, the left is about to be "hoist with their own petard."

Aides to former 2020 hopeful Sen. Bernie Sanders are expressing their anger about the latest development in a sexual assault accusation against presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden -- after video emerged from 1993 in which the accuser's mother appears to allude to her accusation.

Edit: No wonder he wants to pick a women nominee.

Tera is absolutely right. There is really only one person that the rest of the world is interested in - that is The President. The internal squabbling between the also-rans is of little or no interest to anyone outside the USA.
There is no doubt that the USA is a leader in many spheres. But, as with a President of any country, people expect the leader to be statesmanlike, honest, and above all a person we can look up to and have faith in. In such a powerful country as the USA, the slightest offhand or ill advised remark by The President can have wide ranging and devastating consequences worldwide.
So, you vote in a clown, you get a clowns performance as has been demonstrated many time by Orangeman. Let's hope the next president who will be voted in with the least number of populace votes will give the world confidence in the USA and restore it to where it should be. Sadly, at the moment, the USA is a world joke, mainly due to Orangeman.
I for one have faith that with the right president, the USA can be salvaged, but not with the current incumbent of The White House. Who that will be I don't know, but for christs sake don't vote in another clown.

Col, I hear you but respectfully point out that neither Bernie Sanders nor Joe Biden would qualify as "the right president." They are SO extreme that if either of them actually WON the election, the Republican backlash of immediate impeachment would occur. And we cannot forget the "20" curse - that approximately every five terms of office, something really bad happens to a U.S. president.

Ok look, it's quite simple.
We all know Trump is a total clown and an idiot, from what you say the other two would not be suitable, (personally I have no idea as we hear so little of them in the UK)
So, surely either of the two main parties can put up a candidate from 300 million who is of presidential material. How hard can it be?

I suspect part of the problem is that you need about that much behind you just to consider running, and I mean $ not people. With all that money spent on you, you owe everybody big time. Then those special interest groups, organizations, factions and businesses that funded you, and the politicians that backed you show up at your door and remind you of what you owe them.

There are some things about our electoral system that I'm not a fan of, but I'll take it over the US system any day.

Whilst Bernie Sanders does indeed hold left-wing views (at least within the context of US politics), Joe Biden is well to the right of the Democratic party. Please do enlighten us all on how his politics are 'SO extreme'

Disagree. Simplistically, Biden looks 'better' because Trump is so utterly inept.
 
A person in a coma could do a better job than Trump.

You're presuming that the R's can take back the house, and hold the senate for that matter.

LOL. It seems that you are using a extremely subjective, but negative, interpretation of "inept". If Trump rubs you the wrong way or has policies that you do not agree with, that does not make him "inept". To be "inept" implies a long list of failures. Seems that the Trump organization has been very successful. Biden, while not a failure (other than having several unsuccessful Presidential runs) seem to be the typical bureaucratic who has no real beliefs, but like a chameleon adapts to the current situation. With nor real beliefs, Biden will be easily manipulated by political power brokers, he would be a weak vacillating President should he be elected. I assume, that as you have followed this thread, that you have seen the posts displaying the negative baggage that Biden carries.

You many not like Trump, but Biden (as a fake he-man trying to outdo Trump's bravado) aggressively stated: ""I would be on the phone with China making it clear: We are going to need to be in your country. You have to be open. You have to be clear. We have to know what's going on." (emphasis added)". Seems that one could assert that Biden, out of desperation, is resorting to warmongering as a means of winning an election. I hope that alarming language has an impact on you.

I thought the political party sponsored the candidate by paying the costs, which in turn come from donations from supporters and businesses. Therefore, a sensible candidate can be drawn from a wider group of suitable experienced people. It would help tremendously if the most powerful person / leader in the world has a high degree of political experience and support .
