I assumed he tested positive earlier than what's been said. Too bad that article doesn't give a specific time, I'm wondering if he received that result before going to NJ....

Dapper_Swindler posted:that seems like a really really REALLY dumb move. Why's that? It might gather some more votes for Trump if you can give religious people the wet dream of making gay marriage illegal again. If Coney Barret gets nominated, they have enough votes to overturn it (assuming Roberts votes the same way he did in 2015). Even if Gorsuch votes to keep it, they'll have the 5 votes they need assuming Kavanaugh votes to overturn it. Hell, they might even have enough votes now without Coney Barret. A reminder: when asked about it during their confirmation hearings, Gorsuch gave a maybe response (https://www.cnbc.com/2017/03/21/neil-gorsuch-supreme-court-has-said-same-sex-marriage-is-protected-by-the-constitution.html) while Kavanaugh wouldn't give a response (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/09/07/kavanaughs-non-answer-same-sex-marriage-many-heard-troubling-answer/).

Space Cadet Omoly posted:I have no idea how Biden responds to something like this. Seriously, the only appropriate thing to say is "gently caress you, stay the gently caress away from me you bloated bag of festering pus", but if Biden did a swear the media would have a field day. Build a bubble boy type container and do a press conference demanding that Trump wears it during the debate. Maybe put a rubik's cube or similar thing inside and say the president can play with that if he gets bored during the debate.

Trump can't really actively campaign against them with 3 weeks left. I don't have any evidence from prior races, but I think it could be a legitimate threat. Trump could whip up in base in a fury against McConnell to write in "Trump". I wouldn't be surprised if that could draw double digits away from McConnell.

They rest are sadly mostly right with the first two being more complex than that but true. Eh... I don't think I agree with the claim that Biden was early to embrace gay marriage. Maybe compared with Obama, but it still took until 2012. He was still toting the "civil union is good enough" line up until that point. It was only after half of the entire US supported it he finally caved in.

Remember what Giuliani's thoughts on Trump lying is: https://www.kbzk.com/cnn-us-politics/2018/12/17/rudy-giulianis-truly-remarkable-answer-on-donald-trumps-lying/quote:The President’s not under oath There's a fair chance he's making this all up. Granted, this whole story should have been taken more seriously by the Democrats/Bidens from the start (e.g. admitting fault, being transparent, etc). But I imagine if a voter truly had a moral objection to this, they wouldn't be voting for Trump either.

ImpAtom posted:Whoever the Democrats nominate they would 'have an angle on.' Warren would be Pocahontas, Sanders a crazy socialist, etc, etc. The fact the best they have on Biden is clearly falseified emails about his son is frankly bewildering. I think it's about keeping their donor base more than finding the "best candidate". Also, Biden is the most in line ideologically with the top figures in the Democratic party than most of the other candidates. Plus maybe a promise to Biden back in 2016 too.
