Biden isn't the one who will be running things, because Biden is senile. The democrat party died already. It's not even a national party any more. It's just a collection of small factions, most of them Socialist.
If Trump doesn't win this country can kiss its ass goodbye. Doesn't matter much to me any more. I can get out. I just feel sorry for the ones who cant. But I will enjoy saying I told you so once you (the collective "you") get your wish.

"On the negative side, we ended up with Margaret Thatcher who was basically what Rand Paul would have been like if he'd been born a man."
That's funny! Lol

Biden isn't a socialist. I think we'll have to wait for 2024 to see that. Hopefully by then the GOP will have regained sanity.

I guess that would also be what I'd hope for. Hope that Biden doesn't do too much damage (he will almost certainly do some damage) and that the GOP will press the reset button until 2024.

All that said, I don't believe this country is stupid enough to elect Biden. Nor do I believe the polls that say he's ahead. I think he will get trounced so hard he won't know where he is... oh wait.... He already doesn't know where he is....

It's the inside straight. Trump loses so big the GOP reels and fixes itself before the Democratic Party is completely taken over by the regressive left.
I don't think it's likely, but sometimes hope is all we have.

Trumps internal polling is almost certainly abysmal, hence this tweet.

"Pressing the reset button" is another way of saying "go back to being democrat lite". We pressed the reset button 4 years ago.

Yeah, but 4 years ago they first screwed up the CPU and then pressed the reset button and hence got the Orange Screen of Death.

What we need is to take the House away from the idiot democrats and the republicans to control both houses of Congress and the oval office.

What we need is for both sides to quit playing power politics and start serving the people of this country.

That'd be a first.

That sounds good in theory, but what if the people have very diverging conceptions of how they want to be governed?

Yes. But that won't happen. It won't happen because the democrats don't give a damn about America, and half the republicans don't either.
But you're correct.

Nah, I think it's a pre-emptive strike.
There are problems with mail-in ballots and we all know it. They are extremely easy to manipulate and ballot harvest. They also lend themselves to an October Surprise, if it's done well, especially with a Biden-friendly media.
As for poll numbers...I think Trump is down about five, but it's not even Labor Day. And the more Biden has to campaign, the more his senility is expressed.

I have zero doubt that the left are fully convinced that they serve the people of the country.
One of the more insidious aspects of our learned righteousness is that compassion is for the least advantaged materially, and the bulk of the bell curve can go F itself. Entire societies can apparently be led by attaching the leash to the tail of the bell curve and shaming everybody for not devoting all their attention to it, hang the expense.

@Klaus - yeah of course if any person had sufficient backing from the military they could take over.
I don't see that as a risk in 2020. The bigger risk is Trump-friendly state governments attempting to invalidate whole classes of votes, putting up a competing slate of electors, or just never sending any, in order to throw the election into the house.
(note that an election in the house probably goes to Trump, because it isn't a straight vote of representatives, it's a vote by state delegation)

It's weird how you fail to mention that some Democrat electors tried this in 2016 as a last ditch righteous attempt to keep Trump out of office.
