    Bumped. The tension, given the complete unpredictability of the answer, is palpable.

      Honestly the provenance of that story is too suspect for people not already submersed in right wing media and ideology. Add to that we have a quarter century of Biden’s tax returns that allow us to see his sources of income.

      One of the problems with Trump spending so much time immersed in FoxNews, OANN, and right wing twitter is he’ll make references that are relatively obscure to those outside of it. (AOC plus three? How many suburban voters in PA know what that means?). This was an issue in him bringing up Hunter last night:

      . All of the emails, the emails, the horrible emails of the kind of money that you were raking in, you and your family. And Joe, you were vice-president when some of this was happening, and it should have never happened. And I think you owe an explanation to the American people. Why is it—somebody just had a news conference a little while ago who was essentially supposed to work with you and your family, but what he said was damning

      That was his attack.

      Two of Hunter's partners are in prison for money laundering. There is a there, there. Maybe The money has flowed into the Biden family, but not directly to Biden. Or maybe Biden got his cut under the table.

      The lap top topic surfaced during the debate and millions of people who only watch the MSM went, "Why haven't I heard of this?"

      It may not turn the election, but I don't think it is going away.

      So are Trump’s former lawyer and former campaign manager.

      Seems like those business partners are further removed from Joe than Manafort and Cohen were.

        That isn’t run-of-the-mill whattaboutism, rather the point is I don’t see how those former business partners of Hunter being in jail can really affect any of this.

            The only reason that more of Trump's close associates aren't in jail is that he keeps pardoning them.

            I was only joking

                  It’s a good point that by the “number of associates imprisoned” metric, Trump is closer to Jesus than Biden is.

                    Transcript of the debate as fabricated presented by Tim Urban.

                    Chris Wallace: Good evening. I’m Chris Wallace and I welcome you to what I predict will be a very bad personal experience for me. There will be six 15-minute segments, each on a different topic. At the beginning of each segment, both candidates will get two uninterrupted minutes to respond. The remainder of the segment will be open discussion. The audience has agreed not to be trashy. Both campaigns have signed off on these rules, so for sure nothing will go wrong. And with that, let’s welcome the candidates.

                    [CANDIDATES ENTER]
                    Wallace: Let’s start with the Supreme Court. President Trump, you nominated Amy Coney Barrett to succeed the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the court. You say the Constitution is clear about your obligation to nominate someone to the court. Vice President Biden, you’ve called this an abuse of power. To start, why don’t you both explain your positions.

                    Trump: Amy Coney Barrett is a perfect nominee. Conservatives love her. Liberals love her. Chris Wallace loves her.

                    Biden: Amy Barrett would repeal the Affordable Care Act. And besides, the new thing is that you have to wait until after the election to nominate someone.

                    Trump: Not sure what you’re talking about, because last I checked a presidential term is four years, not three. You want to instate Communist medicine.

                    Biden: I don’t want to instate Communist medicine. I want to expand Obamacare.

                    Trump: Your party wants to instate Communist medicine, and you’re scared of them.

                    Biden: I may be scared of them but I am the Democrat Party now, so even if I was and still am scared of them, I’m not anymore. They’ll do what I say now. And how about Covid? The president killed 200,000 people. Roe v. Wade.

                    Trump: You would have killed 2 million people by not banning China. Not Roe v. Wade.

                    Wallace: K let’s go back to healthcare for a minute. Mr. President, over the past four years you have promised to replace and repeal Obamacare, but you have never in these four years come up—

                    Trump: Yes I have.

                    Wallace: with a plan—

                    Trump: Of course I have.

                    Wallace: to—

                    Trump: Of course I have.

                    Wallace: replace—

                    Trump: I got rid of the individual mandate.

                    Wallace: Oba—

                    Trump: The individual mandate was a joke.

                    Wallace: macare.

                    Trump: The individual mandate was the worst part of Obamacare.

                    Wallace: I am the moder—

                    Trump: The individual mandate sucks dick.

                      I heard that Mr. Trump won't leave office, even if he loses.

                      So the election doesn't really matter.

                        I didn't watch most of the event last night, but I read a comment claiming that during the "foreign policy" part of the debate there was no mention of the Middle East.

                        Is that true?

                            Wow, you just have mentally blocked out the fact that a tremendous, absolutely tremendous number of Trump!s associates have gone to prison!

                            No, it's not a tremendous number.

                            Secondly, on one hand we have Trump with multiple businesses worth billions, thousands of employees vs. the Biden Crime Family, with less than a dozen people...Still doing over a billion dollars in business, though...

                                  Speaking of those 500 illegal kids...Did you know that the Feds have tried to reunite those kids with their parents, but most of the parents cannot be found, will not answer mail or simply refuse to be reunited with their children?

                                      I believe that just under 500 of these parents have responded.

                                      And the response was that they don't want their children back. They want them to stay in the USA to get a better life than they could find back home.

                                          Ever stop to think that all laws are backed up by force?

                                          Ever stop to think, many of those children may not have been with their parents? They may have been with other family members or with coyotes?

                                          Ever stop to think that there have been multiple cases where illegals have lied about familial relationships after being apprehended down on the border?

                                          Ever stop to think, some of these children may have been smuggled into the country for sex work? (Nah, that one wouldn't bother you.)

                                          Ever stop to think...No, I didn't think so. Probably hurts too much. Go put on your My Little Pony bicycle helmet, don your lavender spandex cycle shorts and take a spin around the neighborhood on your pink bike. The extra oxygen will make your head feel better. Just don't emit any tofu farts or the methane may kill a butterfly in the Brazilian rain forest.

                                          Have a nice day.😊
