2020 Presidential election

It would just be so nice for trump to be gone and out of our lives. I mean im reading an article in the salt lake tribune about BYU's upcoming game against navy and on the sidebar there is a picture of trump with the headline
President Trump says Mitt Romney couldn’t be elected ‘dogcatcher’ in Utah right now
I mean what other president would say something like that. His poor behavior is simply everywhere at all times. Cant avoid it if you try.


SALT LAKE CITY — President Donald Trump took an apparently unprompted jab Sen. Mitt Romney at a campaign rally Thursday, saying the Utah Republican “couldn’t be elected dogcatcher” in Utah.

“Utah, the home of our worst senator ... that’s Romney,” Trump told supporters in Latrobe, Pennsylvania.

“You can have Romney, I tell you,” the president said as the crowd jeered the Utah senator. “Romney couldn’t be elected dogcatcher right now in Utah.”


While Trump called Romney the worst senator, he said Utah’s senior Sen. Mike Lee is doing “excellent.”
“I didn’t want to get them confused, by the way,” the president said.

Lee, who serves as Trump’s reelection campaign chairman in Utah, recently changed the profile picture on one of his Facebook accounts to a photo of himself and the president. Lee did not vote for Trump in 2016 but has become one of his staunchest allies .


Trump also went on in the speech to disparage “the guy with shaved head” while talking about whether Utah was in play in the 2016 presidential election.
“What a loser that was. You know what I’m talking ... ,” Trump said, as someone in the crowd shouted “Evan.” “That’s right. McMuffin, I think.” (there he goes calling someone a loser again)


This is our president folks. It never ends........ unless it hopefully ends this year on election day.

On August 27, 2019, President Donald Trump held a 41.3 percent approval rating and a 54.2 percent disapproval rating, according to FiveThirtyEight’s poll tracker. During the 365 days that followed, Trump became the third president impeached by the House of Representatives; America assassinated Iranian general Qassem Soleimani; more than 200,000 Americans died from the disease caused by the novel coronavirus; the unemployment rate rose from 3.7 percent to 10.2 percent; the US banned incoming travel from Europe, China, and Brazil; an estimated 12 million people lost health insurance coverage; Trump pardoned Roger Stone, who was facing jail time for dirty tricks on the president’s behalf; and George Floyd’s murder sparked a nationwide movement protesting for racial justice — to which officials responded by tear-gassing demonstrators in Lafayette Park in Washington, DC, so Trump could pose for a photograph holding a Bible.


That is, of course, a bitterly incomplete list of a grimly consequential year in American history. But you’d never know it simply by following Trump’s poll numbers. On August 27, 2020 — one year later, and the day Trump used the White House as a backdrop for his convention speech — FiveThirtyEight had Trump at 42.2 percent approval and 54.3 percent disapproval. Everything had happened, and politically, nothing had mattered.

According to Gallup’s presidential approval database, President Ronald Reagan’s numbers bounced from a high of 68 to a low of 35 percent during his tenure. George H.W. Bush peaked at 81 and bottomed out at 29. Bill Clinton ranged between 73 and 37 percent. George W. Bush touched 90 percent and fell all the way to 25 percent. Barack Obama’s band was narrower but still stretched from 40 percent to 67 percent.

This is the great irony of the Trump era: It has never felt like more is happening, and yet American political opinions have never been so immovable.



“If you went into Trump’s presidency thinking he’s a racist, sexist, xenophobic, immoral, narcissistic, corrupt, and incompetent person — beliefs held by most Clinton voters — then there’s literally almost nothing he could do to change your mind,”

“If you see Trump as ‘the protector of Western Civilization,’ as Charlie Kirk called him the other night at the RNC, or the protector of white America, as Desmond King and Rogers Smith have called him, defending cherished (white Christian) American values from atheist, left-wing socialists who want to take your guns and put Cory Booker in charge of diversifying your neighborhoods, then there’s almost nothing that would make you abandon him,”

Trump is such a gleefully polarizing figure — so contemptible to those he offends, so heroic to those he defends — that minds were made up on him before he ever stepped into the Oval Office. Moreover, Trump is a limited figure: He doesn’t switch strategies, adopt new tones, adapt to new circumstances.


If you had told me, a year ago, that a pandemic virus would overrun the country, that 200,000 Americans would die and case numbers would dwarf Europe, that the economy would go into deep freeze and the federal government prove utterly feckless, I would’ve thought that’s the kind of systemic shock that could crack into public opinion. I’m not saying I would’ve predicted Trump falling to 20 percent, but I would’ve predicted movement.


The stability unnerves me because it undermines the basic theory of responsive democracy. If our political divisions cut so deep that even 200,000 deaths and 10.2 percent unemployment and a president musing about bleach injections can’t shake us, then what can? And if the answer is nothing, then that means the crucial form of accountability in American politics has collapsed. Yes, many of us are partisans, with a hard lean one way or the other. But the assumption has long been that beneath that, we are Americans, and we want the country governed with some bare level of competence

Can anything change Americans’ minds about Donald Trump?

Trump was 100% correct when he said that he could shoot someone in the middle of times square and not lose any supporters.
This is the biggest problem with politics in america today. Our country is WAY too partisan. Doesn't matter anymore if the president is doing a good job or bad job. Only thing that matters is what party he/she belongs to. Its quite sickening to me. We are no longer a country of united states of americans..... We are a country of democrats vs republicans in what seems to be a lead up to a civil war. God help us all.

The part of the article that gives me hope is: Sometimes it’s easier for the country in general, and partisans in particular, to admit a leader’s failures after he’s lost than it is when he — and they — are still fighting to keep power.

Similar to Whats the point of Kamala Harris? She only appeals to a very small demographic that would be voting dem 100% of the time. Proves that Biden's only requirements were to find a woman of color who was willing to bend the knee to anything and everything.

I don’t think they’re remotely comparable. Not to mention that Biden will most likely only serve one term. So not only was he choosing his VP he was also choosing the likely 2024 candidate for president.
 
Might explain part of the reason why donald didn’t want to go out in the rain to visit those cemeteries (We also know he was angry at Macron):



How Trump really feels towards evangelicals, who have all too eagerly embraced him:
 
Cohen is a sleazeball which is why he fit in perfectly with the Trump org. I tend to believe much of what he says though he’s ethically running on empty.

All of them are like roaches scattering when the lights come on.

I got a kick out of Trump saying “I called home. I spoke to my wife, and I said ‘I hate this, I came here to go to that ceremony’”. And meanwhile, she was with him in France, lol. One of his dumbest lies yet.

I know. And that's a thought that I hate and will most certainly doom the dems in 2024.

You've been predicting doom for the Democrats for years now and All they’ve done is win elections.
