Good move. Differentiation.
Agree. At about the same time Vice President Biden sent his twitter and pulled his ads and President Obama sent his well wishes, President Trump campaign sent out a negative email.
I really think that the PResident Trump campaign has trouble realizing that it is quite a small % of the population who they have to change their mind. The people who support President Trump "eat this up" and love it, but I am not sure about the middle of the road people. Maybe I am completely wrong, but.....
President Trump email vs VP Biden twitter
-QUOTE-
There was a sharp contrast in tone between the presidential campaigns Friday, as Joe Biden and former President Barack Obama sent well-wishes to President Donald Trump — and the Trump campaign sent out a fundraising email slamming them as “Lyin’ Obama” and “Sleepy Joe.”Biden’s campaign decided to take down all negative ads and run only positive, pro-Biden spots while the president recovers, as Mediaite reported earlier. The decision, it is important to note, was made before news broke that Trump was being admitted to Walter Reed Hospital for “precautionary reasons.”
Biden had also offered prayers for the president and First Lady Melania Trump in a stump speech Friday afternoon, discussing his political platform but expressly avoiding any attacks.
Obama was at a fundraiser Friday afternoon with Biden’s running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris, and offered his own thoughts and prayers for the President and First Lady’s recovery.
“Although we’re in the midst of a big political fight, and we take that very seriously,” said Obama, “we also want to extend our best wishes to the President of the United States [and] the First Lady. Michelle and I are hopeful that they and others that have been affected by Covid-19 around the country are getting the care that they need, that they are going to be on the path to a speedy recovery, and it’s important I think for all of us to remember that even when we’re in the midst of big political battles with issues that have a lot at stake, that we’re all Americans and we’re all human beings, and we want to make sure everybody is healthy.”
In contrast, at roughly the same time Obama was speaking, the Trump campaign sent out a fundraising email with the subject line “Lyin’ Obama.”
The body of the email slammed “Lyin’ Obama and Phony Kamala Harris” for “calling up their Liberal MEGA DONORS to come and rescue Joe Biden’s failing campaign.”
“We all know that Sleepy Joe isn’t fit to be YOUR President,” the email continued. “We know it. You know it. And even Obama knows it — that’s why he’s holding a fundraiser with Kamala instead of Joe, who is probably already asleep in his basement.”

Stay classy, right Jolly? This is the difference between the two sides. One is civil and respectful. The other is brash and selfish. Fuck your side.

The thing is, did anyone even imagine Biden not having some degree of integrity and fairness.
Yes u can argue it smart politics, but I have a sinking feeling that in reveresed rolls somehow classyness is not what would be expected from trump by his deep base.
Trump doesn’t do class in that sense.

Yes, me.
And this doesn't necessarily change my mind.

That does not surprise me.
You are not part of that small % who is actually undecided at this point, just like @nobodyssock is already decided for the other side.

If you haven't made up your mind by now, you're an idiot and should not be allowed to vote.

This is the first time you've said anything that made any sense, although I'm sure it has escaped you that you have the sides reversed. Everyone is fully aware that the brash, selfish, and to be honest, downright vile acts have all been done by YOUR side. Everyone is also aware your side is the most uncivil and disrespectful .
What makes it even funnier though is your last sentence, which totally proves my point. You actually don't have enough sense to understand that you just said... "I'm more civil and respectful than you, so fuck you"
It would be funny if it weren't so sad. You are so clueless that there's no way to get you to see it. You, and the rest of the Left, have gone from just being wrong to being full blown psychopaths.

Just an observation: civility and respect is a difficult sell when "fuck your side" is immediately what follows.
Look around, man. While you're busy feeling good about attacking the bad people you are absolutely scaring the shit out of the centrists you'd otherwise win over. "Join us or you're a xenophobic racist who needs to get punched" sounds like nothing I want to be a part of.

This.
Nothing wins hearts and minds like "Fuck you."

In fairness, it wins the hearts and minds of the tribe because it exhibits strong tribal affiliation. Not that there's any opinions changing, but friends can be made, bonds can be formed, that sort of thing. Maybe NS could become a star at WTF for standing up to the bullies here on TNCR. Previously, that's been mostly the province of 60 something white SJW females attacking an effigy of their childhood trauma, but maybe NS can break that pattern.

Why?
Because the difference between what the two candidates will do in office is a stark contrast. If you really like either one's proposed agenda, vote for them. If you really don't like Trump's agenda, vote for Biden. If you really don't like Biden's agenda, vote for Trump.
If you're voting for Biden because you hate Trump, you deserve the government you get. And vice versa.

I think you may be on to something here.
Why not spend more time here and allow us to get to know you better?
You are clearly a man with the ability to present brilliant insights.
Please, help us.

Okay. I understand what you are saying. But that means that the debates dont matter (which I actually dont think that they do LOL).
So, the main candidates campaigning for the last month is more to get the people out to vote rather than change anybodies mind. That makes a lot of sense.
But I do think that there is a somewhat small percent of the population who at least has not indicated their mind is up. These are the people that will hold the election IMO.
