Guess who they're blaming now for the backlash towards mail-in ballots.

One thing I just realized now is that there have been very few if any Islamist terror attacks during Trump's presidency, why? They happened pretty regularly during Bush and Obama's presidency and then just kinda stopped.

Is there a non tin foil hat explanation for this?

Late to the party on this one, but I'd say it's because ISIS more or less collapsed fairly early on into Trump's presidency. In 2017, they started suffering major setbacks and were completely wiped out by early 2018 save for a few impotent holdouts in Afghanistan.

ISIS really did go above and beyond to export Islamic terrorism throughout the mid-2010's and a lot of lone wolves like the Pulse Nightclub and San Bernadino shooters took inspiration from their online propaganda.

I can try but both of them are total charisma vacuums.

Pence is actually pretty charismatic, but in a much more subdued way, he's just calm and 100% confident in everything he says because he is a true believer. He has a smooth delivery and powerful demeanor paired with a lot of mental horsepower, and he knows it.

At this point we're all accustomed to Trump's big showy shit posting style, but don't let that make you sleep on Pence.

He embarrassed Kaine in 2016 so badly that barely anyone even remembers him. He's such a non-entity now that you'd think Clinton was running for both President and VP.

Donald Trump won his first presidential campaign against key contender Hillary Clinton and officially took the oath of office on Jan. 20, 2017 to become the 45th President of the United States — the first time in history a WWE Hall of Famer would ever hold the distinguished title of U.S. Commander-in-Chief.

First but hopefully not the last.

Biden is really campaigning hard in that important swing state, Delaware. He might be able to take it come election night.

Let's see:
"Homefield" advantage (he was the senator)
Usually held by Dems (Obama and Hillary won it)

Yeah, Joe really needs to work his ass off to win that one.

Well Glenn Jacobs (Kane) is busy being a mayor somewhere in Tennessee at the moment, so it's not too far out of the question that he might decide to make a run for the office. It's unlikely, but the fact that he even ran and then won his election in the first place is still funny.

A good Wrestler knows how to hold a crowd, how to tell a story and how to get people to empathize with their character.

It is not surprising to me that a good wrestler wins elected office..many of the same (non physical) skills go into both things.

Edit : Be afraid the day that Dwayne Johnson says he is running for office. If you think Barak Obama's "Charisma" got him worship..There is only one man on the planet I have seen be able to get a crowd eating out of his hands like the Rock.
