I don't really understand people who watch/consume news this way outside of boomers/olds who really don't read the newspaper anymore and didn't move to the Internet.

The article below was from a few years ago but CNN has definitely changed since then. What Js1 said above is absolutely correct, sadly. Over the last week since the first presidential debate it seems like someone high up said, “we need to get Biden to step down because then we can run with a bunch of stories about that and who his replacement will be and drive ratings”. They don’t seem to do stories about Trump being a raving lunatic and kind of just omit those from the broadcast similar to what Fox News does.

Biden should do two chicks at the same time.
He should promise any man that votes for him that. He would win in a landslide.

It's Biden or Kamala Harris. Stop being idiots. There is no outside option from the existing ticket, it's entirely too late and the power of the incumbent office is not something you can just toss aside.
You forgot to mention Oprah. I believe she is next in line after Biden.

I'm not trying to defend Ronny... I just don't recall him being ridiculed for his stupidity like W or Trump.
And I said "nearly 70%"... but, I just looked, and my memory was off a bit. He spent most of 85 thru 86 in the 60% range with a high of 68% in May of 86. That must have been the time frame I was coming into my political awareness... I would have been 14-15 years old at the time.
Either way, over his 8 years in office his average and median approval ratings were both 52%.
In contrast, Biden began his first term with a 55% approval rating (Ronny was at 51%) and is currently at 37%.. (with a 57% disapproval rating) on July 2, 1984 (re-election year) Reagan's approval rating was at 53% (with 37% disapproval rating). I'd kill for a Biden approval rating of 53%.
To add to my nervousness, at this point in 2020, Trump's approval rating was 39%.
I would argue that Biden's number is under 40% not because of the job he is doing or the state of the country but because the right-wing media is so strong with their propaganda that they have scared half the country into believing their country is shit and their lives are terrible. Bush Sr and Carter actually dealt with economic issues like a recession that caused many of their low polling numbers. Trumps is low because he was a fucking terrible President, and it should actually be lower. I bet most of the people voting and giving Biden a low approval rating are actually doing really well in the world like have a good job, nice house, friends and family, going on vacations and own all the toys they want yet when asked about the country they tell the pollsters its terrible (because Fox News told them it is).

This case is about a government being able to clear tents off the street. It has nothing to do with humanity and compassion over homeless people or how to solve homelessness. You are the ones projecting.
This short clip from a Mel Brooks movie should give you your answer on the homeless and others.

I get that the building's engulfed in flames, Fire Marshall Grandpa is fumbling with the fire hose trying to figure out which end to hold and that you and the Democratic party are telling us no one else more capable can take the fire hose from Grandpa to attempt to put out the fire. Because Grandpa was elected Fire Marshall and there are no contingencies for replacing him when he inevitably got too old to perform and so we all just have to be patient with him as we're incinerated.
That is a bullshit and unacceptable answer.
This is a great analogy. We don't want the old Fire Marshall that is fumbling with the fire hose, but the other choice is to make the Fire Marshall the guy that lit the fucking building on fire and chanted let's burn this motherfucker to the ground and when we are done let's light all the rest of the buildings on fire also. I choose the old guy and hope that he hires some firemen that no what the fuck they are doing, but that's just me. Yes, I get this about switching Biden out but that isn't going to happen in my opinion for reasons already stated.

After the debate I thought it best to remove Biden and Kamala from the ticket and get some younger centrist Dems on the ticket. I am now honestly in a different mindset. They need to keep Biden on the ticket and give him Adderall or any other stimulants anytime he is in the public. HIs campaign staff are also dumb to float the "had a cold" stuff. He should come out tomorrow and say it wasn't a cold, but he has some nasty stomach virus the day before with a fever and explosive diarrhea and he was up for 24 hours causing him to feel like shit at the debate and was pretty out of it. Something pretty much everyone has been through at one time or another and understands and would say, "oh, now I get why he looked terrible". Hell, if they went with the cold idea, he should have said he had a cold and took way too much cough medicine and Benadryl and it caused him to look drugged, but he is great now. Basically, lie like the other side does.

Won't this be limited to be cuts to benefits that aren't covered by traditional Medicare in the first place?
That is correct but seniors won't see it that way. They have been on those plans and getting those benefits and when their benefits get worse, they will blame somebody. The somebody will be Biden and the right will make sure they know who to blame.
46 minutes ago, Js1 said:Isn’t it pretty easy to just reply with all the clips of the GOP and Trump talking about how easy it will be to cut Medicare and SS?
I would say the difference is one is talking about taking their benefits and the other is a real-world experience they will be having. Big difference.

That's why the ramp agents wear those beautiful orange headphones, to keep from getting cancer.
The British, during the Revolutionary War, then they tried to storm the Washington airports.....it was the windmill jets that made their heads explode and die so we could take back our country, hugely.
35% of America could read this and think, "Yeah, that checks out."
35%? At least 50% of this country would believe that shit. Now tell me more about these windmill jets. I am quite intrigued by this.

Let’s not forget October surprises and frankly an interest rate cut from the Fed. Trump’s in this only because interest rates and inflation, neither of which are Biden’s fault. A rate cut will juice the market and sentiment and that could be a tailwind for Biden in the last 60 days.
I will give you a big headwind that will hurt Biden right before the election, Medicare and to be specific Medicare Advantage. Millions of seniors are on those plans all over the country and pretty much all of those companies that offer these plans (United Healthcare, Aetna, Humana, etc....) are going to make benefits much worse and pull out of areas because the federal government cut their payments. I guarantee you will have the right wing (rightly or wrongly) come October telling seniors "Look at what the Democrats are doing to your Medicare? They are cutting your benefits and if we get elected, we will give you all those back plus a lot more stuff so vote for us." Seniors that are democrats want democracy, but they also want their dental plans, free meals, rides to the doctor and all those other benefits more. Just wait and watch.

One key thing to remember is that none of the media outlets can let Trump runaway with the election. Same for Biden. Needs to be close so they can sell ad revenue for their networks and the sheep in this country keep watching.

Inflation is an easy statement--did you think the last president's 9 trillion hit helped inflation? Biden can point to his jobs and economic growth as what he's done and would continue. It's not a difficult question.
The people in this country are too stupid to understand what you said. They look at inflation simply through the lens of my eggs are more expensive now than they were 4 years ago and it’s all the current presidents fault.

So the opioid addiction issue is because they came across the border and not because of companies like Perdue pharma? Got it.

Welp. I just got raped and murdered in my home by an immigrant that came over the border illegally. Thanks Biden.

It is amazing that when a guy like Trump says everything in the world was good because of him and everything wrong in the world is because of the other guy you would think some people would say, gee that guy is full of shit.

My President is going to win. Trump 2.0 is going to be disciplined, focused and ruthlessly efficient in turning the tide when it comes to illegal immigration. This is a disaster for Biden.
Your president may win but you will still be a loser. The rest of us will still have good jobs, good friends and families and find a way to have a good life. You on the other hand will still be a loser no matter who is President.
