Do you really expect Biden to be running? I dont actually.It is difficult to picture Biden on stage debating Trump.
But, Dem voters hate Trump so much that they might be willing to vote for any Dem.

I do, too. It went like this... Republicans have given up on the Presidency and are now just trying to save the House and Senate.

Cam Smelly Maggie offer any reasons to believe that President Hillary or President Joe would have acted earlier, and that the damage would have been less? All of the circumstantial evidence that we have says “no.”

"They keep saying this- but NEVER give any legitimate examples of how hes been erratic- all they have is baseless false accusations that he didnt act soon enough"
Exactly. Trump, like many, downplayed the seriousness of the epidemic early on in several tweets, but such over-confidence was typical at the time, and was based on what his scientific advisers were telling him.
Trump established the CV task force and the China travel restrictions in late January, before there was a single CV in the US, and when there were only about 20 confirmed cases nationwide. How can that be considered "late"?
Plus, we have all seen the clips of Democratic politicians - and liberal media - minimizing the threat in late February and early March. To cite just one example, there is the late-February clip of Pelosi hugging strangers in Chinatown and urging everyone to "come on down."
In my area, Gov. Jay Inslee - widely praised for his "early" response - allowed a soccer game to be played in downtown Seattle with 31,000 fans on March 7th.

I have respected the president up till now. I do watch the daily briefings and at first it was enlightening. Lately it has turned into a 9th grade food-fight between DJT and the various media operatives.
These daily briefings are repetitive, confusing, and combative. The president is in-charge and he has the power to set the agenda and the format. Instead there is very little new info every day and the main feature is a spat between a left-winged operative and DJT. From the president we hear the same litany of facts; we do more testing than any other country, we have enough ventilators, DJT loves all the governors and they love him.
Now all of the world is seeing Lysol shouldn’t be injected and don’t swallow disinfectants. My left leaning friends can’t stop talking about the Lysol comment although totally untrue but that is the media. The daily briefing should be talking less and having a well structured agenda would be a great help. Let Pence lead he was a talk show host before and has a great presentation style.

What I suspect about this China virus happening at this particular time is that the whole scheme was intended to be the October type of commie democrat surprise. Trump team triggered it prematurely so it would be taken care of by the election and now he has time to restore the economy as well as to remake our response readiness for the next health crisis that is inevitable. Pres Trump has not wasted this time and has called attention to the unpreparedness of many states to take care of their own responsibilities and has modernized the US govt in a number of ways to more efficiently be able to handle whatever crisis comes our way. The Deep State and all of their confederates have to reassess their approach to taking Pres Trump out now that he has short circuited their latest coupe attempt.

No, it doesn’t.
It means, “Certainly someone is going to post the meme of an angry Captain Kirk, shouting “NO MORE BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!”, So here, let me predict it”.
However, it looks like I was mistaken.
Not the first time.

So you post out here once every 2 or 3 years?

........ Like it or not .... There is absolutely nothing that is certain in the world .... Especially in the Arena of Politics .... It would be irresponsible for Republicans to proceed as Hillary did expecting a Coronation in the last Federal Election ........ Or like the Republicans did in the Mid Terms expecting a Red Tidal Wave ..... Always Hope for the Best .... But Absolutely prepare for the Worst scenario ...... The battle is not over yet my friends .......

Correct translation:
“Dammit! Even a pandemic virus and economic shutdown didn’t work. His ratings are still high, even rising in some polls. And the GOP senators in trouble, like McSally and Gardner, have been the beneficiaries of having their opponents locked down! Dammit, dammit, dammit.”
