I fond him to be an utterly repulsive individual but Ive no doubt that if any Democrat president had been associated with the recent détente between Israel and the Arab nations he/she would be feted as a heroic genius by our media, the European media more broadly and the left wing media in America.

Well it has been brokered by the two most untrustworthy state leaders in need of a win, so no one really believes it. Like NK, the show is more important than the outcome.

The deal is basically abandoning a peaceful settlement. It’s a win for some investors who want an end to the boycott.

All it gets is a pause anyway. Israel can quietly violate it later once the trade is embedded and established (and politically painful for the other side to give up).

Jaysus, with RBG's passing they are really showing their stripes. After implementing the 'Biden Rule' to prevent O'Bama from nominating in an election year, they're going to shoe horn a supreme court judge in.
Also is the 1776 education plan the facciest thing we've seen in a modern western democracy?

Trumps America

A president who serves red states only, to the death of thousands.

RBG will likely be replaced by this, https://slate.com/news-and-politics/202 ... uture.html

The republican constituency is money. Any company challenged will now be able to look to the SCOTUS as an advocate. With the US and China as fascist states, Europe faces a crisis of identity. Shitty times.

I see Trump's team tried getting the retaliation in even before the debate... They sent an newsletter email out claiming to have won the debate and complaining about the fake news coverage of it!!!

They also asked for a drugs test and a check for earpieces. Honestly... They always claim the other side is doing stuff they are probably at.

This debate has actually convinced some undecided voters to not vote at all.

I’ve never seen a debate cause this reaction. #Debates2020

didn't watch it but caught the lowlights.
Jayziz.....americans must be feeling so proud right now. boris must be delighted, trump makes him look good.
The truly jaw dropping moment for me was Trump telling the "proud boys" to "stand by"......after been asked if he would condemn far right racists. this might go down as the nadir for american political history. Astonishing stuff.

Biden looked ruffled when trump started attacking his sons....anyone would be, but, he didn't lose his temper which might bode well for him.
Might watch the next "debate" when it's on.

Polls after the "debate" suggest that trumps support crashed because of his "proud boys" moment and his personal attacks on Biden....bookies have Biden odds on as the next prez. the same Bookies had us odds on favs to beat Asterisk RFC in the quarter finals of the heineken cup last week. go figure.

So does this mean that hydroxychloroquine doesn't work?

No it means his mask didn't work.

He doesn't wear one, none of him or his debate prep team wore them. He was taking the drug (or claimed to be) as a preventative measure.
