US Joe Biden News Megathread - The Other Biden Derangement Syndrome Thread (with a side order of Fauci Derangement Syndrome)

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?

"It tells you everything you need to know about the difference between the Trump campaign and the Biden campaign. And between Donald Trump and Joe Biden," she added. "We saw for the first time over 100,000 new cases in one day this week -- 1,000 people a day dying on average now. Jason Miller and the Trump campaign, they feel that that's virtually no one, but there were 1,000 families in this country who lost someone yesterday. There are 1,000 more that will lose someone today and those are not virtually nobody."

Lol my sides.

"I can tell you the important difference between the two campaigns."

Fuck marry kill

Hillary
Young Hillary
Current Hillary

Be clean with me mah dude

First, kill Young Hillary. Then, Time Paradox prevents the rest of the choice from having to be made.

 

[Zero Day Defense]

Nice to see the National Association of Always Complaining People is chiming in. Gotta keep the antique farm equipment from leaving the plantation, after all.

Also, BEN Jealous? Bitch you couldn't possibly be MORE jealous from what it looks like.

He's probably still jealous of the current governor of Maryland.

 

[Duke Nukem]

He's probably still jealous of the current governor of Maryland.

Yeah I'm sure he'd do something about Bodymore but I'm not going to hold my breath.

 

[CrippleThreat]

Obama's back at it again.

And Joe's in Pennsylvania for the nth time. Make your best of Biden meme compilations while you.

 

[Quixotic Man]

I just want to make sure that you understand northern Ohio is part of the rust belt. I'm not even sure why he'd bother going to the rust belt/Midwest after saying he's going to kill oil and coal, how exactly is he going to bring manufacturing back to them like that?

Its a repeat of the Hillary Campaign being "too smart too win."

Modern democrat campaign fucking love science and run all sorts of models, algorithms, and simulation to create campaign strategies. As a result they often ignore common sense or traditional political wisdom, as they think this advanced intelligence will give them an edge. Yet many of these models are plagued by "garbage in, garbage out" and end up making them do all the wrong moves, based on faulty data. Presuming the models weren't complete garbage as well or in the first place.

We'll have to see if Joe was too smart, of if his staff managed to crack the code.

 

[queue-anon]

Bernie's rallies had more turnout than this. This looks like some old guy running in a small town. But he's running for PRESIDENT.

Let me clarify: when Bernie was running for President.

Hell: let me show a better example:

View attachment 1701151


Hillary had a much bigger turnout.

Apparently his campaign is keeping people from his events. If you're not a major donor, his staff won't even tell you where he's appearing (so maybe you could stand outside with signs even if you haven't donated enough to get an invite). I guess they're doing this to keep Trump supporters from showing up, but it's still bananas that they don't see how bad this looks.

 

[TFT-A9]

Obama's back at it again.

And Joe's in Pennsylvania for the nth time. Make your best of Biden meme compilations while you.

honestly at this point I'm pretty sure they're letting Biden drive and he's just kind of going in circles in PA looking for an ice cream shoppe that closed three decades ago while mumbling "Scranton... Scranton..." to himself

 

[Syaoran Li]

Interesting take, my theory is that they're putting up Joe because they're at a crossroads where they want to purge all the old establishment types and replace them with far left quasi-communist/Trotskyist types. Honestly they're saying Pennsylvania and Arizona, of ALL places, is going 52 for Joe or whatever. Yeah, right, while there are good arguments against Donald Trump I honestly don't believe he's pissed people off enough to make them want a senile segregationist gaffe machine with the IQ of a potato in his place.

I agree that Biden's a crossroads candidate but I also think that the neoliberal establishment types initially picked him as the jobber candidate after Tulsi sank Kamala in the early primaries. They needed Biden to keep Bernie out and a Biden loss would do the least amount of downballot damage to the Democrats overall, both the leftist and neoliberal wings.

Then COVID-19 gave them a potential golden ticket and the plan changed to get Biden to win and use him as a Trojan Horse for Kamala. If Biden still loses anyway, they can go with the pre-COVID plans and the ones in the DNC establishment who actually run shit can use that loss to purge The Squad via gerrymandering a lot of their districts out of existence and AOC's got enough bad blood with Pelosi that it'll be a miracle if she still is in office by 2022 regardless of who wins.

Plus, everyone wants a scapegoat and if Trump lucks out and gets a narrow popular vote win on top of an EC win, they can throw the Woke Left under the bus and probably accuse BLM and Antifa of being Russian saboteurs or some equally inane shit.

Of course, the Woke Left won't give up without a fight so if Biden loses, expect a LOT of internal fighting and Game of Thrones/Vampire: The Masquerade-tier backstabbing to go down within the DNC

Black men are voting for Trump because of chauvinism: Former NAACP president​

https://sneed.yimg.com/uu/api/res/1.2/_ECViOLXuN6ASwIxe6vYBg--~B/Zmk9c3RyaW07aD0yMDA7dz0yMDA7YXBwaWQ9eXRhY2h5b24-/https://sneed.yimg.com/os/creatr-uploaded-images/2018-11/79892b50-e68d-11e8-9fff-31a933ada353.cf.jpg

Kristin Myers​

Black men who choose to vote for Donald Trump are doing so because of chauvinism, said former NAACP president Ben Jealous.

While research indicates that more than 80%of Black voters will vote for Democrats, large differences remain between Black men and women. According to Pew Research, 87% of Black women identify as Democrat, compared to 77% of Black men.

In the 2016 election, 98% of Black women voted for Hillary Clinton over Trump — compared to just 81% of Black men who voted for Clinton that year, according to validated election results.

“The reason why you see white men, brown men, Black men, all voting at higher rates for Trump than the women in each category, frankly, is his appeal to a chauvinism, to machismo, to patriarchy, by whatever name you call it,” Jealous told Yahoo Finance. “And so what you see is in group after group, he trends higher with men.”

Jealous, the current president of People for the American Way, explained that Trump’s “strong man persona” and was one that some men feel is “the most valuable thing they have.”

The Black vote is critical to both Democrats and Republicans, and the Trump campaign has been trying to double support from 6% in 2016 to 12% this year.

(Hyosub Shin/Atlanta Journal-Constitution via AP)More
Celebrities like Lil Wayne, 50 Cent, and Ice Cube have all voiced support for President Trump or his policies, citing his “Platinum Plan” — Trump’s “promise” to Black America and his tax policies which they say are better for higher bracket earners than Biden.

Jealous says that Trump’s funding of HBCU’s isn’t swaying Black voters to vote for Republicans.

“There's a White House Office on HBCUs. It's not new to Trump, and Trump has no history with HBCUs prior to coming into office. It's just simply a virtue of who's ever in the White House, [that] there is a White House Office on HBCUs,” he said.

As the Black vote bloc increases in importance, voter suppression — including long wait times — continues to disproportionately impact minority communities.

Voting problems​

Studies have found that Black communities face longer wait times to vote than their white counterparts, while the Bipartisan Policy Center found that “over 560,000 eligible voters failed to cast a ballot because of problems related to polling place management, including long lines.”

Using data from the 2016 election, research shows that Black voters wait nearly 30% longer than their white counterparts, while Black neighborhoods were approximately 75% more likely to wait 30 minutes or more.

Jealous said that the Black vote has been targeted as a “high impact” way to “hurt Democrats.”

And with high levels of frustration in the Black community toward politicians of any party around economic issues like poverty, the Black vote has been “fertile ground for mischief and confusion,” Jealous added.

“I'm glad to see, quite frankly, Biden competing more for the Black male vote,” he said. “Democrats absolutely have to be making the case to their base and making it clear how they're going to improve people's lives. But there's no denying that, from the Russians to the far-right wing, there has been intentional targeting of the Black vote, and specifically of younger Black voters, and even within that, Black men who, frankly, have sky-high joblessness in many places.”

But Democrats will have to be held accountable to promises made to minority voters, and to policies that will benefit their communities.

But first, Jealous explained, is ensuring that the majority-rule works in the Senate so that the country doesn’t see a “minority of Republican senators hold the nation hostage when it comes to making progress.”

The author looks like she’s a mulata from the video although initially I thought she was white from her profile picture. I bring it up because I’ve noticed sometimes that people will compensate with wokeness when they fear that they’ll be seen as “not a minority” and they are the ones that are the most likely to call out dissenting minorities.

*Edit* huh apparently mulata has negative connotations in English according to a Google search. Is that true? Maybe it’s something I haven’t ran into it and I always thought it was a neutral term like mestizo.

James Clyburn (Pelosi's house nigger) said that he will pray for black Trump voters. SNL mocked Ice Cube and Kanye or Lil Wayne recently for supporting or working with him Trump.

There is a real fear among white democrats and democrat house niggers that this election will start a trend of black people leaving the party.

2020 will decide if that trend is true but all these rich niggers hating on their fellow black man or women for having different views shows them as a bunch of spiteful cunts.

'Our map has expanded' in final days of the race: Biden campaign senior adviser​

JOHN VERHOVEK
Sun, November 1, 2020, 11:27 AM PST
With just two days to go until Election Day, Biden campaign senior adviser Anita Dunn expressed confidence in the Democratic nominee's path to 270 electoral votes and argued that their map has "expanded."
"As we've gotten closer to the election, instead of the number of contested battleground states shrinking, which is normally what you see at this point in the campaign ... the number is actually expanded, so that we're now campaigning also, in Georgia, in Iowa, in Ohio," Dunn told ABC News Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos on "This Week."
Pressed on whether she believes the race will be decided on election night, Dunn said she did not know for sure. She singled out Pennsylvania, a battleground state critical to both campaigns' path to victory, as a state where the result may take a few days to determine.
With a surge in mail-ballots, counting all of the votes may take time, Stephanopoulos reminded viewers on Sunday, adding that "everyone watching at home should know that is not a sign that anything has gone wrong."

"Obviously three big battleground states may be slower to count their votes. Pennsylvania in particular," Dunn said. "But, Georgia and North Carolina and Florida are all states that I think we can reasonably assume we're going to hear results from either election night or early the next morning."


Dunn also accused the Trump campaign of trying to suppress votes.

"We may know the results election night, we may know them the next day. But one thing that is clear though, is that we're going to make sure all of the votes get counted. There's only one campaign -- and that's the Trump campaign -- that thinks they have to suppress votes in order to win," Dunn said.

Dunn also hedged on whether the nation will hear directly from Biden on election night, saying the entire campaign will be focused on making sure all votes are counted.

"I think it will depend on where we are in the results. Obviously you don't want to go out prematurely. But you're certainly going to hear from the campaign. You may very well hear from the vice president. I think that we'll all just be concentrating on working up to the moment the polls close to get those votes. And then to make sure every vote gets counted," Dunn said.

The Biden campaign has announced that the candidate plans to "address the nation on Election Night in Wilmington, Delaware," according to a release sent Saturday afternoon. Biden will be joined in his hometown by his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris and their spouses.

Dunn also laid out the Biden campaign's strategy of defending states Hillary Clinton won as the Democratic nominee in 2016 that the Trump campaign has been targeting like Nevada, Minnesota, Virginia and Colorado, while attempting to expand the map into states like Arizona, Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina to maximize their path to victory.


The Trump campaign has maintained that they see a path to 270 electoral votes by holding key Rust Belt states like Michigan and Wisconsin and pulling off another victory in Pennsylvania, a state where Trump and Biden are campaigning aggressively this weekend.

Two new polls out Sunday conducted by ABC News and The Washington Post shows Biden maintaining a slightly narrowed seven-point edge over the president in Pennsylvania, while Trump holds a 2-point edge, within the poll's margin of error, in the all-important swing state of Florida.

In the final days of the 2020 race, Biden has prioritized an array of battleground states his campaign said will give them multiple paths to win the White House.

MORE: Florida maintains toss-up status while Biden leads slightly in Pennsylvania: POLL

On Saturday, Biden hit the critical swing state of Michigan alongside his one-time running mate, former President Barack Obama. Both men delivered blistering critiques of the current occupant of the Oval Office.

"No matter how many threats (Trump) makes, America will be heard. When America’s heard I believe the message is going to be loud and it’s going to be clear. It's time for Donald Trump to pack his bags and go home!” Biden told supporters at a rally in Flint, Michigan.

"(Trump's) still talking about his inauguration crowd being small. ... Does he have nothing better to worry about? That was four years ago. I mean, what kind of trauma did he go through? Did no one come to his birthday parties when he was a kid?" Obama said at a later rally in Detroit.

In the final days of the campaign, Biden is going all in on Pennsylvania, holding two events in Philadelphia on Sunday. The entire Democratic ticket and their spouses will mount a final barnstorm of the state on Monday.

In addition to touting the campaign's electoral strategy, Dunn responded to comments made by Trump campaign adviser Jason Miller earlier on "This Week" that attempted to back up President Donald Trump's unfounded claim that doctors are inflating the number of COVID-19 deaths to make more money.

"I'm astonished that Jason Miller spent as much time as he did without ever saying that the doctors who are on frontlines in this coronavirus crisis that this country faces, without ever defending them. And without ever basically saying, 'No they're not in it for money.' These people have been risking their lives since the beginning of this crisis," Dunn said.

"It tells you everything you need to know about the difference between the Trump campaign and the Biden campaign. And between Donald Trump and Joe Biden," she added. "We saw for the first time over 100,000 new cases in one day this week -- 1,000 people a day dying on average now. Jason Miller and the Trump campaign, they feel that that's virtually no one, but there were 1,000 families in this country who lost someone yesterday. There are 1,000 more that will lose someone today and those are not virtually nobody."

If Shattered is to be believed this is how Bill Clinton felt during Hillary’s run(s). He was a believer in the ground game, getting out there to the small towns, shaking hands, listening to people. Hillary listened to Robbie Mook who listened to whatever his latest computer model spat out. Bad data and lack of campaigning did it for her and I don’t think Bill was that surprised at the result.

I wonder what Bill thinks of the latest Democratic attempt. He’s been absolutely sidelined and his opinions don’t count now but I quite liked him, he was extremely charismatic in his day and had that Trumpesque rock-star appeal. Plus he knew politics. Pity he married the Beast.

Edit to add that an awful lot of Hillary’s 2016 staff are now on the Biden campaign.

Bill Clinton has done many things that I don't particularly agree with him on along with being a sex weirdo/scam artist which is ironic as I consider him the last good president before Trump came into the picture. However, I have to give him credit where it's due in that he actually is very in touch with the people compared to his wife and other politicians, Bill was pretty much a smart populist and it's a shame the democrats aren't listening to Slick Willy for advice given Trump is pretty much the Republican equivalent to a Bill Clinton and Bill probably has a better understanding of what Trump is doing more than most democrats.

 

[Sithis]

I haven't made it any form of a secret how much I hope Joe Biden loses tomorrow night - not because of any particular love I have for Trump, more because of my bottomless disdain for Biden and everything he and the modern Democratic party represent... but regardless of the outcome, including a potential Trump loss, it's kind of crazy to think we might well be just 24-30 hours away from the greatest salt harvesting of a generation.

Charisma is exactly what the Democrats have lacked in all their failed Presidential campaigns for the last twenty years. Gore Kerry and Hillary were all charisma vacuums and lost because of it. Meanwhile, Obama and Clinton were charismatic enough to get people off their asses and into a voting booth. It's why I'm still baffled the Democrats haven't learned from that and consistently sideline their young and energetic talent in favor of an increasingly decrepit series of crypt keepers.
