Politically its a no win, this would apply to whomever was in office and i am sure will be a commercial used against every mayor, governor etc in upcoming elections. Isn't politics grand...

Remco got it right. This is a lose/lose situation for Trump. No matter what happens over the next 7 months Trump is out. His reputation was already in tatters before the Coronavirus but now he's unelectable. Biden will get the nomination and will be voted into office in a landslide this Nov.

This virus will be long gone by November and Trump will have another feather in his cap.

A few thousand people in the US may end up dying from this, well under the 12,000+ that died of Swine Flu under Obama.

Trump is going to be fine, Biden on the other hand isn't likely to even make it to November.

Have you noticed the recent increase in "Trump will definitely lose" posts as the leftist losers try to brace each other up and pretend they have a ghost of a chance of winning?

Four years ago they were fairly confident, but wound up getting whacked anyway.

Now they are praying, hoping against hope, and lying about their feelings as usual.

Trump will never recover from this. The fallout from his "hoax" comments turn-into "We're in a real crisis" will haunt him right up to the election. People will remember everything that has happened to him since December of last year.

This thread is just begging to be bumped up in about 8 months so we can all laugh at the OP.

This is curious to me as I think you may well be right. Biden always seems so darn befuddled to me. It's like he's not "firing on all cylinders." It's a bit painful to see him struggle through statements at times. No, I don't think it's related to his stuttering, either. Just interesting to me.

I actually think Trump will prevail unless he bails out Big Business before and over us little guys. Were he to do that, yes, he would lose my support and vote. It's a dealbreaker to me.

Just because you type it, doesn't not make it true.
