    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Not what I’ve ever said, but ok. Nobody forced people to vote for Biden when it was just him against Bernie. No doubt there were party shenanigans that conspired against Bernie. But this idea that the DNC somehow Jedi mind tricked millions of Dems into voting for a senile vegetable over a...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    A $15 minimum wage is one of Biden’s main economic policies, which you would know if you’d watched the debates. So what it tells me is that you’re more preoccupied with the ‘Bernie would’ve won’ genre of fanfiction that has prevailed since 2016 than actual facts or analysis. I support most of...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Not being a progressive candidate is a feature, not a bug of the Biden campaign. Americans aren’t an especially progressive bunch. Which is why 70+ million of them voted for Donald Trump and why Democrats voted against nominating Bernie, twice. What seems obvious to us European socialists is...

    We’re putting so much pressure on O’Hare, who has a lot of potential, and absolutely deserves a shot. But as the sole attacking midfielder in a team that is struggling to create chances, it’s a hell of a lot of responsibility for a kid who’s played very few senior games at any level, let alone...

    Taxi for Biamou?

    Some people might say that it’s wrong to keep arguing over Biamou’s goals per minute record and warmup routines to try and work out if he is indeed terrible or a god. To those people I say: no, don’t give up now. We’re so close to the truth.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I mean....I get it. I don’t even disagree with most of it. But all that notwithstanding - he still beat Bernie. He’s still beating Trump. There’s no big conspiracy here - it’s just what people voted for. To argue that he’s not your favourite candidate, or not the best possible candidate is one...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    So remind me again why he’s an “appalling candidate” if Democratic voters overwhelmingly backed him to be more likely to win an election than Sanders?

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I don't deny the underlying narrative that the party united around one moderate candidate to squeeze out Bernie, but you make it sound like a coincidence they picked Biden. They could have just as easily picked Buttigieg, who'd already won Iowa, or Harris, who impressed at the early debates...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Oh, you're one of those guys. Well, maybe the Dems did decide to shoot themselves in the foot with a dumb conspiracy in aid of a crap candidate for two straight election cycles. Or maybe the party is just more centrist than you think, and Biden is surprisingly popular. I know which one I'm...

    Are you talking about Biden or Trump?

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Out of interest, what was the party's motivation for conspiring to nominate an objectively terrible candidate in cognitive decline? I mean, alternatively you could just be wrong, but humour me here

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Trump's actions in the last 24 hours alone are enough to tell you this is absolute nonsense. That's quite a big 'what if' tbf! Yes, coronavirus defined the election, but Trump only has himself to blame. As for the 'hiding' stuff - it's a vintage Trump talking point (and be honest - if you...

    Sky News wrong again in that case Trump’s popularity slips in latest Military Times poll — and more troops say they’ll vote for Biden

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    He is winning by a big margin. Again - don't let the weird counting schedule, or the fact that the polls predicted an even bigger one distract you from that. And the polls ended up getting what, two out of 50 states wrong? Boy, sure hope someone gets fired for that blunder.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I broadly agree with you on the riots, but disagree with you on Covid - it was clear from the start that Trump wanted more than anything to ignore it completely and campaign as if it didn't exist. I think many people have voted for Trump out of a willingness to do the same, but that's an...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    At this stage in 2016 (i.e. after the election), you couldn't move for hysterical takes on how the results had single-handedly upended the entire US political system thanks to a dazzling campaign, and would let Trump revolutionize Washington for decades to come with an unprecedented mandate...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    The fact that Trump outperformed in places like Kenosha and expanded his base among several minority groups suggests it's silly to say "race riots were in Biden's favour"....but consider the source here.
