Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?
 
unless you're talking about something she said last year when she was running for the nomination. That's a million years ago and a dozen 180 policy positions changes in terms of this campaign
You really think they've changed their plans, huh? You think that's gonna stop them from getting their long-awaited revenge on the Deplorables for their humiliation?

You know, if you actually started to crunch the numbers for how often Biden calls a lid and just takes the day off, I'm willing to bet that you'd see he works, on average, less than people who put in a 40-hour work-week, and he's campaigning for the busiest, most-stressful job in the entire country. I'm kind of tempted to sit down and do the math because I'm positive that he'd only be putting in maybe 20-30 hours a week.
You are being very generous if you think that every American who puts 40 hours on their timesheet is working 40 hours.

Source: I posted this during work hours.

To reframe your point though, Biden is putting in a meandering middle class office worker’s amount of effort into trying to become the leader of the free world, while Trump is putting in CEO hours for the same goal, all while currently being the leader of the free world as his first job.

It’s not comparable in the slightest.

I'm not saying they as an established elite class don't want to unarm the masses. I'm saying that they've shut the fuck up about it, and it's probably because their own base got scared by the chimp out and actually experienced gun regulations and now have a weapon to worry about losing now. It's off the campaign trail for this season, possibly next, depending on the next time a glowy schizo goes full MKUltra.

Just because it's off the campaign trail doesn't mean it's off the table. They have no reservations about making gun owners ex post facto felons overnight.
 
Conservapedia isn't some grand project of the Right Wing. It's Andrew Wakefield's blog where he posts his bizarre theories about relativity and dinosaurs. When it was really flourishing, many of the contributors and mods/admins were trolls. I think the rest were online high school students who had to post there and agree with him for credit. A fact-checking website with paid, professional writers and oversight from an established conservative organization would be a different creature.
Isn't RationalWiki just the result of liberals being assblasted over the existence of Conservapedia?
 

25 Questions Joe Biden Should Be Asked in the Debate

Tuesday’s presidential debate provides an opportunity for the American public to finally get answers from Joe Biden, who has largely been absent from the campaign trail.

Vice President Biden should be asked the following 25 questions. This list is by no means exhaustive.

Many of these questions were suggested by this author last month, but because they remain unanswered, I offer them again in the hope that Tuesday’s debate moderator, Chris Wallace, will question the Democratic nominee with the same enthusiasm he has shown for questioning President Trump.

1. A Senate investigative report issued this month found that your son, Hunter Biden, and his family and business partners “received millions of dollars from foreign nationals with questionable backgrounds.” Among the sums they received while you were vice president include over $4 million from the corruption-plagued Ukrainian energy company Burisma to your son and his business associate, a $3.5 million wire transfer to your son from the wife of the former mayor of Moscow, and “millions of dollars in cash flow” from your son’s business associations with “Chinese nationals linked to the Communist government and the People’s Liberation Army.” In light of all of this, we must ask: Why did members of your family get so many lucrative business opportunities overseas while you were vice president?

2. The report also contradicts your earlier statements that you were never told about your son’s business dealings in Ukraine. According to the report, “In October 2015, senior State Department official Amos Hochstein raised concerns with Vice President Joe Biden, as well as with Hunter Biden, that Hunter Biden’s position on Burisma’s board enabled Russian disinformation efforts and risked undermining U.S. policy in Ukraine.” Is Mr. Hochstein lying about this or are you?


3. Why did your son Hunter accompany you on your official trip to Beijing in December 2013? What did he do on that trip? Who did he meet with? What should the American public make of the fact that just 10 days after this trip, your son’s boutique private equity firm secured a $1 billion investment deal from the state-owned bank of China (later expanded to $1.5 billion) despite having no prior experience in China; and with this deal, the Chinese government granted your son’s firm a first-of-its-kind arrangement to operate in the recently formed Shanghai Free-Trade Zone—a perk not granted to any of the large established financial institutions?

4. Should the American public be concerned that your son’s private equity firm partnered with a Chinese government-owned aerospace and defense conglomerate to facilitate the purchase of an American company (based in Michigan) that produced strategically sensitive dual-use military technology that the Chinese government wanted?

5. Does your “Build Back Better” proposal contain any provisions to ensure that American taxpayer-funded technology is not bought off by Chinese state-backed enterprises working with private equity firms like your son’s?

6. How did your brother, Frank, secure $45 million in taxpayer loans from the Obama administration for his Caribbean projects?

7. How did a newly-minted firm employing your other brother, James, receive a $1.5 billion contract to build homes in Iraq despite having no experience in construction or international development?

8. Back in 2000, you voted in favor of giving permanent Normal Trade Relations (NTR) to China. At the time, you said that this would not lead to “the collapse of the American manufacturing economy” because China is “about the size of the Netherlands” and could not possibly become “our major economic competitor.” Furthermore, you predicted that free trade with China would establish “a path toward ever greater political and economic freedom” for the people of China. Do you still stand by these statements today after 3.4 million American jobs have been lost to China and millions of China’s citizens have been imprisoned, surveilled, disappeared, and used as slave labor by an increasingly authoritarian regime enriched by 20 years of record trade imbalances acquired through flagrant trade violations?


9. The People’s Republic of China has a bold plan called “Made in China 2025” to dominate the key technologies of the future in order to overtake the United States militarily and economically. Do you still contend that China is “not competition for us”?

10. Why did you promote the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) to financial special interest groups when research was clear that the deal would make it easier for corporations to move U.S. jobs overseas?

11. Do you believe Xi Jinping kept his promise to Barack Obama to end cyber-espionage against the United States? If not, what are you prepared to do about it?

12. Do you accept that the coronavirus originated in China? Do you think China was honest with the world in its handling of the coronavirus? Are you satisfied with China’s explanations for how it spread? Do you believe their claims about the number of cases and fatalities in China?

(Cont.)

13. Do you think China should be held responsiblein any way for its handling of the coronavirus? If not, why not? What, if any, repercussions should there be for China in its handling of the coronavirus?

14. You have vowed to rescind the Trump tax cuts. Can you think of a single example of a country that recovered from a recession by raising taxes?

15. President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, Judge Amy Coney Barrett, has been attacked by members of your party because of her Catholic faith. Do you denounce these attacks on Judge Barrett’s Catholicism?

16. Your running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), attacked a judicial nominee on the basis of his membership in the Catholic fraternal organization the Knights of Columbus, which is the largest fraternal organization in the world and includes among its past and present members many prominent Americans like President John F. Kennedy, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV), Gov. John Bel Edwards (D-LA), and Vince Lombardi. Do you or Sen. Harris believe that being a member of the Knights of Columbus disqualifies a person from holding public office? Would you refuse to hire someone on the basis of their membership in the Knights of Columbus or any other Catholic organization? In Sen. Harris’ questioning of this Catholic judicial nominee, she singled out the issue of the Catholic teaching on the sanctity of life. Would you or Sen. Harris disqualify a job applicant on the basis of their Catholic beliefs about abortion? Do you or Sen. Harris believe that being pro-life disqualifies someone from employment?

17. Your campaign has adopted a version of the Green New Deal that calls for 100 percent renewable electricity generation by 2035. California has adopted similar “green” goals, but now it can’t keep the lights ondue to the state’s reliance on wind and solar energy. California’s Democratic Gov. Gavin Newson admittedthat the Golden State needs a “backup” plan for energy because the current blackouts caused by lack of wind and overcast skies have shown the danger of relying solely on “green” energy. Why would the nation fare any better than sunny breezy California in keeping the lights on if we adopt 100 percent renewable energy?

18. You supported the George Floyd protests, which you claimed were peaceful. Have you spoken to any victims of the riots — people who lost loved ones or businesses?

19. Do you believe that the looting of the Magnificent Mile in Chicago was a “form of reparations,” as one Chicago Black Lives Matter organizer claimed? Is looting an appropriate form of protest as a means of reparations?


20. Seattle Black Lives Matter protesters stormed a neighborhood, demanding that residents “get the f*** out” and “give black people back their homes” as reparations. Do you support that style of protest? If not, have you condemned it?

21. You said in your DNC acceptance speech that America is ready to “do the hard work of rooting out our systemic racism.” What did you do in your 36 years as a U.S. senator and 8 years as vice president to root out systemic racism? Why didn’t it work?

22. What is the maximum number of illegal immigrants you would allow into the country before securing the border to stop more from entering?

23. The Obama administration deported an estimated 3 million illegal aliens. Was that a bad thing?

24. With 30 million Americans unemployed due to the coronavirus, would you support a halt on work visas for foreign workers competing with Americans for jobs? If not, explain to us why CEOs will not use this huge increase in the supply of labor to freeze and reduce salaries for American workers?

25. Do you or do you not support a ban on fracking? If you do, what do you say to the estimated 7.5 million American jobs that will be lost due to such a ban, which includes an estimated 550,000 jobs lost in Pennsylvania, 500,000 jobs lost in Ohio, 363,000 jobs lost in North Carolina, 353,000 jobs lost in Colorado, and 233,000 jobs lost in Michigan?

Why... why... WHY haven't the Republicans created their own ostensibly neutral fact checking website and small org? They have completely ceded this ground to the left.
The same reason nobody uses Infogalactic as an alternative to Wikipedia. 1) Vox Day is credited with creating it therefore Infogalactic is as flawed as Vox is and 2) people on the right would rather bitch about being treated unfairly than do something about it under some false sense that things should be "fair".


Even if someone created a "neutral" fact checker it would be attacked as being "right wing extremism" and nobody on the right would use it.

Or maybe nobody uses it because Infogalactic’s model is retarded.

I love it when people start to dig through old clips of politicians. They always say so many interesting things and just assume that nobody will remember.
This clip reminds me of these fun memes from yesteryear:

You can just see the disappointment on her face when he fucks up. You can bet there's a great frustration in the MSM about Biden.
None of the left-wing pundits want their show to be the show that Joe Biden completely falls apart on. It would end their career despite not being their fault whatsoever.

I have no idea what Infogalactic is, but Wikipedia is retarded, so naturally a copy of it would be too.
Wikipedia is used a s source for actual news articles as well as a legit reference when used for college and high school papers now. But its retarded...


For the guy wondering why the right doesn't make their own "fact checking" website you should have your answer.

Anyone using wikipedia as a primary source is a fucking idiot. At best it's a place to find a nice list of references, but the pages themselves should not be cited, or relied on in any way, for the simple reason that anyone can edit them. There are any number of instances of news articles citing "facts" from wikipedia that were inserted by paid shills, political activists, axe-grinders, or plain old trolls, that went on to become "reliably sourced", because the news article became a reference for the page that the news article was using as its source.
