    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.

          Only non-witches get due process.

            He sometimes drops by golf courses to look around and say hi.

            Elbows up!

              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:

                                  image.jpeg

                                  "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.

                                    @George-K I agree. But I also think that his secretary or aide worked with him on what to write.

                                    And as I said above, I would be more concerned if a president went into a meeting/conference/whatever, without some sort of preparation, like a cheat sheet. When I have done them, we would anticipate questions/comments and have bullet point responses.

                                    For example:

                                    Meeting with Economic Officials in Thailand

                                    Point: Taiwan increasing chip making in Thailand

                                    Pros:
                                    increased cooperation
                                    economic benefit (add data)
                                    previous chip manufacturing
                                    skilled workforce
                                    etc,

                                    Con:
                                    Utility concerns availability (electric, water)
                                    Local opposition to land reclaim
                                    skilled workforce
                                    etc.

                                    (I realize that the original was kind of a different thing with President Biden.)

                                        Intersting. It's early, of course.

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

                                          Way too early.

                                          I'm not convinced Biden will run. I think if his poll numbers are bad going into the fall, he'll have a sudden "health problem" that will preclude him from seeking reelection and the dems will have to come up with an emergency candidate...And it ain't gonna be Headboard Harris.
