      Polls show Trump pretty even, even a bit ahead, with Biden.

      But, it's early, and those are polls.

      I think McCarthy's right.

      "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        I suspect he's right.

        Education is extremely important.

          I hate to make any predictions. I was surprised he got the first nomination.

            Too early.

              He couldn't beat Ms. Clinton either.

              No way.

              Impossible.

              Can't happen.

                So much can happen in the coming year - with the economy, world events, Biden's gaffability, Trump's legal issues, etc. While both candidates "should" win their primaries, it is not a safe bet on either side.

                  We focus so much on Biden’s age but remember Trump turns 77 in June, is morbidly obese, eats junk, and doesn’t exercise.

                      He golfs, but when you use a cart that’s not much in the way of exercise.

                        @jon-nyc he also shags porn stars. That sounds pretty energetic to me.

                        I was only joking

                                  Trump’s hour-long rants are rather unhinged but everyone’s used to grading him on a curve. There’s no expectation that he will be coherent and consistent from one day to the next.

                                          @taiwan_girl I may be wrong, but if I had to guess, those photos of "cheat sheets" that are (supposedly) in Trump's hands look like they were written by the sharpie-loving Trump himself, rather than a White House aide.

                                          Here's some samples:

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
