Biden criticizes Trump travel, says he can win election while following 'the science'
The Hill ^ | 8/24/20 | Rebecca Klar

Posted on 08/25/2020 2:49:46 AM PDT by Libloather

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has criticized President Trump for his travel leading up to the November election, stating he will be able to defeat the Republican incumbent by sticking to his strategy of virtual events from home amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Biden was asked in a wide-ranging ABC News interview that aired Sunday night if he could win a presidential election from his Delaware home, to which he replied “we will.”

“We’re going to follow the science, what the scientists tell us,” Biden added.

Biden’s campaign has limited travel due to the coronavirus pandemic, with the candidate instead appearing virtually from his home in Delaware. He accepted the party nomination last week from his home state during the last night of the Democratic National Convention.

Trump visited the battleground states of Pennsylvania and Wisconsin last week, as the Democratic convention continued.

Biden slammed Trump for traveling and holding in-person events amid the pandemic.

“Look what happened with his events. People die, people get together, they don’t wear masks, they end up getting COVID,” Biden said.

Biden is trying to become the President from the movie Death Race 2000: actually living in China and running things in America by remote decree.

One of the Dems’ most effective messaging strategies is to pick a word or a phrase to summarize an argument they are making and then have everyone on “their team” use it simultaneously and repeatedly ad nauseam. It’s very annoying, but it is effective.

“The ONLY way that Biden can “win” is VOTE FRAUD and BALLOT HARVESTING!”

The corporate left media has circled the wagons around his campaign because they know his public appearances will cost him votes. At some point Biden’s out-of-sight-to-keep-him-from-saying-even-more-stupid-things strategy will have a negative affect his campaign - it may already have started, since his poll numbers dropped after the convention.

This man can’t conduct daily life, much less the Presidency. This is another Democrat scam. When has that party ever done anything honest?

The technique is called Neuro Linguistic Programing (NLP). It is used in some education environments but is a the core of propaganda campaigns. There are training programs that teach you to use it. Dems use is obvious if you read about how it is supposed to work.

and / or rioting at republican leaning polling places and the streets that lead to them on election day. Today court houses, november republican leaning districts.

I am in the process of drafting a letter to my Secretary of State demanding a written plan to secure that voting environment with evidence of its existence made public well in advance of the election.

I suggest everyone who wishes to vote in person do the same.

As demonstrated by the abrupt and volatile eruption of riots in Kenosha this weekend, It is clear that we are sitting atop a powder keg.

Joe Biden is not William McKinley and his running mate is not Teddy Roosevelt.

Joe is campaigning from his basement and not his front porch.

Joe (I’m scared of the COVID, it’s going to get me) Biden is not going to win this election.

The Demonicrat’s efforts for vote fraud and ballot harvesting are just part of their insurrection and treason. Governors, state secretaries, and state election officials should be held acountable if they allow such insurrection and treason.

The media uses Neuro Linguistic Programming all the time, then. They repeat the same phrases in a news story - multiple stories from different sources using the same exact phrase: “bold gun safety initiative”, “Orange Man racist”, “moderate Democrat”, “extremist Republican”, “favors the rich”, “Russian conspiracy”, etc.

I’m not sure we can win by going after basements. Even Republicans have deadbeat offspring.

“The science” also tells Joe and the Ho that frickin’ mask he’s wearing is as useless as our cowardly governor.

Biden and his handlers are smarter than we think. They are counting on corrupt mail in voting to drag his sorry ass across the finish line and they are counting on Republican paralysis to aid them.

Republicans are sitting around and looking at each other and accepting that mail in voting is inexorable.

Who knew that the most powerful nation on earth could be disassembled with the greatest of ease.

Napoleon has been quoted as saying : “I saw the crown of France laying on the ground, so I picked it up with my sword.”

Similarly, the democrats to have an epiphany - merely use corrupt and fraudulent voting and call it democracy in action to conquer the United States and do it much easier than Napoleon ever dreamed.

With Republicans in the background saying nothing can be done.

Science is ruled by skepticism. There are untold numbers of scientific ‘Hypotheses’, most of which have been shown to be wrong. There are many fewer scientific ‘Theories’, and many, if not most of them, have also been proven wrong. There are only a handful of scientific ‘Laws’, and even Newton’s half-millennium old Law of Gravity was shown to have exceptions a few short decades ago.

Naïve politicians who purport to follow ‘the science’ clearly don’t understand Science. A key principle is that all it takes to disprove any scientific Hypothesis, Theory, or even Law is a SINGLE, well executed, duplicatable, experiment with an outcome that differs from what is expected. Almost every politician claiming to follow ‘the science’ is clearly unaware that ‘the science’ they are blindly following doesn’t even exist. REAL scientists are keenly aware that ‘the science’ must always be followed with skepticism.

The response to anyone blindly saying, "follow the science" should be, "do your own work." Biden and many others are fundamentally lazy. They rely on the work of others, in this case "science", which only includes some scientists and doctors. The issues involved with mask wearing, social distancing, shutting down the economy and the loss of freedom for security should be understandable to anyone with average intelligence and a basic education. That's if they did their own work and did a little research that does not include reading or watching reports from the media. (The media falls directly into the category of people who don't do their own work. They report on what others that do. Some may call that work, but they don't create anything other than drivel that is quickly forgotten.)

These mask wearing, social distancing, shut down everything at all costs people are lazy and don't want to do their own work. They follow the so-called science, but they don't follow real science that they have verified themselves. They don't realize that there are other scientific opinions and there is a ton of politics involved that have nothing to do with science. They didn't do their own work.

Joe Biden has a history of not doing his own work. The only real job he had was as a lifeguard. (We all know that is just sitting around getting a sun tan.) He didn't work hard a school. He graduated at the bottom of his law class. His entire existence is based on government employment, not building anything. Jeez, he never even solved a problem as a politician. In fact, he made more problems. He can't even write his own speeches and he is plagued with a history of plagiarism. He never built anything in his entire life. He doesn't do his own work.

Marxists have another name for people who follow the science, "useful idiots." Joe Biden is not in charge of anything. He is just a puppet of the left and the poster child for a useful idiot. He never did his own work.

Science is frequently wrong, until they get it right...for the moment. The scientific method is a measure of how to logically get it right. It certainly is not an endorsement of abdication to the will of scientists, that is a logical fallacy so common it even has a name. Appeal to authority.

BLM vs ALM...either one is inclusive of the other, and not vice versa, or it is not being logical. The Venn diagram is not complicated and the one case where the diagrams are equal is not true. It is not an argument ie does not have rules to determine truth (there is no winning an argument as it does not follow the rules of logic).

That people are EASILY fooled by the above is a testiment to our school system’s planned decline.
