Lock the thread, it's done. Goes out in peak fern style.
I wonder if Biden gets an opinion on who is running mate will be.

Yes, but it won't be her as she isn't eligible to be president (too young).

Looks old enough for me.

Not to mention she would lead the nation to rack and ruin.

See what you did there. I think they might be there already and are being lead by a boob, (or tit) but certainly would be a better rack with her in charge.

I doubt it, their system doesn't let anyone do anything.

If we are judging the past by today's standards does context to this matter? Would it if it were Trump speaking?
It is Biden quoting someone else but how easy this could be taken the wrong way. Full clip:

From what I can see so far both campaigns are basically:
Trump: "at least I'm not Biden!"
Biden: "at least I'm not Trump!"
-
This is the Trump campaign argument.
It is based on the idea the Democrat controlled cities are seeing all the violence.In my opinion, Trump doesn't want to federalize the National Guard via the Insurrection Act because it is his belief the Dem Governors and mayors will undercut him and he will be blamed for subsequent violence. It's a brutal calculation. Right now he is slipping in the polls, but a few moths in politics is a long time.
-
A few days in politics is a long time as well.
If evidence comes to light that Trump was briefed on Putin paying a “bounty” on US troops that will be the end of him. Even his senate support won’t be able to ignore that.
My guess is that this is incompetence rather than conspiracy. It is well known that he demands stripped down briefings and even then doesn’t take them in. The intelligence community has almost given up on him.
This, however, goes further. This is the commander in chief apparently ignoring the fact that a foreign leader that he promotes is incentivising the killing of US soldiers.
He’ll try and spin this all over the place but there are already cracks showing and top GOP senators are asking for answers. -

Should have worded that better, keen to know 'the source'. See if it is worth trudging through hyper-partisan media spin to look into.

Even some 'Fox-ies' are raising questions on this. They don't want to go down with a sinking ship themselves.
It will certainly be interesting 'how' this gets proved. If it was in a briefing then that is a highly classified document so can't be leaked. Any whistleblower needs to point to the document as evidence.
Assuming that the allegations are correct, Trump is hiding behind controlling any official comment from military and appointed heads of dept. Also knowing that the PDB can't be released.
The story does appear to have some bones to it though. Some pretty reputable people have obviously seen/heard some kind of evidence. Whether it has been interpreted correctly could be the argument.
I have read somewhere (can't find link) that this was part of the usual Russian destabilisation type stuff pulled by the same unit that organised the Skripal attack.Look, Trump may even have 'justifiable ' policy reasons for not acting on this that he knows is unpalatable to the public. But the optics sure aren't good.
Even if Putin's mob were 'fishing' they would have known that this would be a win/win. If he doesn't take the bite he looks bad to the US public, if he does take the bite it keeps the whole Taliban conflict going.
