Eventually, Dems are going to realize that the 2008 and 2012 elections were outliers, not benchmarks. They'll never hit those numbers again even if they nominate another African American, because s/he won't be the first.
Biden campaign reminds me of Bob Doyle’s in 1996. The GOP ran someone no one was excited about, on a campaign of “anybody but Clinton,” and got destroyed on election day.
It’s very similar. No one is excited about Biden, the campaign is “I’m not Trump,” and well see what happens in a couple months.
It would not surprise me if Joe had an accident or critical health incident so Dems don’t have to admit he’s had dementia for some time.
I used to think that, but I've since changed my mind.
At this point, I think the Dems have given up on 2020, much the way Republicans did in 1996 when Bob Dole ran. They're clearing the decks for 2024.
Ultimately, the Democrats WANT 4 more years of Trump. He's their ultimate boogieman. Then, in 2024, they can re-run the Obama plan and elevate some other relatively unknown state politician and turn her (not him) into the Messiah. The young communists - AOC, Tlaib, Harris, Elleson, etc. - will all be waiting in the wings for cabinet positions.
Wouldn’t it be hilarious if there was already a population in the America’s that was then displaced by “Native” Americans that camp over the land bridge?
Red flags should have gone off...you would think SS would have an algorithm to automatically check after a certain age.
They do. SSA managers are supposed to contact every recipient over age 100 annually. If the recipient is over a certain age and hasn't used Medicare in a certain amount of time, the manager is supposed to make a face to face contact.
I imagine there's a manager or two who's got some 'splainin to do.
