Who will be watching? First one kicks off in 24 hours time.
The Democrats have pulled Joe back from his campaign trail recently to get him prepared, so hopefully it will be a decent exchange.
Unfortunately they don’t seem to have great confidence as they have spent the last month looking for any dirt they can dig up so Joe can use if he gets stuck.
It’s no coincidence that this vote influencing Facebook algorithm story is being shamelessly and inaccurately made into a race issue on the eve of the debates. So transparent and disingenuous, it’s a shame politics has come to this on this level where black people are being used in this way to score political points. I would be furious if I was them, but it does seem a lot of people are not falling for this one and calling it out for what it is.
People finally seem to be getting wise to this political race baiting which is refreshing to see.
It’s also telling that in the week of the debate they try and paint Trump as a tax evasion offender. I think that’s what they wanted the tax returns to show, they seem to have got annoyed when it turns out his tax returns were fine in accordance to what his companies profits were - but decided to run with it anyway. Any news is good news in their mind as it’s another thing Joe can use when in a tricky spot.
But I hope the discussions remain political and doesn’t turn into some form of gossip peddling reality TV episode.
Although I think there should be some kind of drinking game involved if it does turn that way, how many times Biden completely loses his thread of thought and blurts out “I mean, think about it...” you have to take a shot.
I will be watching with great interest anyway.

I hope Trump does win,because I just don't like the other side.. Biden is a joke, and the rest of the democrats are scum.
Donald Trump is and has always been a living indictment of the people who run this country. That was true four years ago when Trump came out of nowhere to win the presidency and it's every bit as true right now. Our ruling class is disgusting. pic.twitter.com/0JLb6L5AFR
I still find it bizzare that they deemed this man to be the best choice to represent them.
Forget about him campaigning to send black children to separate schools as he didn't want his white children growing up in "racist jungles".
Forget about his son's unexplained connections to Russian and Chinese state companies.
Just listen to him speak in this video. Perhaps he was a sensible politician decades ago. I myself highly respect how he supported Britain during the Falkland War. However, if I was a Democrat, I'd feel insulted that this is the man I'm expected to vote into office. He's clearly deteriorating mentally. I genuinely feel sorry for him as he'll be remembered as nothing more than Kamala Harris' Trojan horse into the White House.
You do realise that individuals, with significant sums of money, concerned with these activities, are likely to HEDGE their bets towards the end of the event? That means to place money on both sides..
Thus, rendering the data completely unreliable, especially for the purposes you seek.

This is where we are with elections. Voting for the least bad option out of a host of terrible options. It’s the same here, nobody likes the Tories, nobody likes labour but they get millions and millions of votes because people don’t want the other side to win.
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Do you know how it all works?

I do, I’m heavily involved and one of the main players in the industry as you may well know.
But you are wrong. That’s not how it works.
A large proportion of the 500m matched on the exchange will come from companies mitigating against certain tax hikes that would happen should certain people win the election. So as I have explained previously, the odds themselves aren’t very telling.
What is telling however is the fluctuations, they are a prime indicator of the faith people have on that side of the coin. Which is why whenever you are actually interested in who won a debate or such like then the markets will tell you - not some CNN poll.
Happy to go into it further but your posting history suggests you aren’t interested in learning from people with expert knowledge of things. But happy to if you would like.

I know the polls are very often not worth the paper they’re printed on (even the guardian admits this in the article) but It’s interesting that most have Trump to win Ohio but Biden to win overall. Usually whoever wins Ohio wins the White House.

Nah. Republicans will very likely win Ohio, that should be factored into most people’s plotters.
The key state as it stands is probably Pennsylvania, if Biden wins then it will make it tough for Trump, if Trump wins then Biden instantly becomes a decent underdog. Assuming Texas goes with Trump that is.
Then Florida and North Carolina are the other two main ones.
Those are the keys to the White House as I see it.

What or which part of my posting history is that?
Can't be anything in regards to your perfidious posting over the last 6 weeks or so, considering the size of the U-Turn you and your lackey have done in the time since.

U-turn? What U-turn?
Your posting history for the past God knows how many years where you pretend to know how something works and then stick to your guns regardless of experts patiently explaining it to you. You are here to hector not to discuss, and most certainly not to learn.
I can explain things to you but I can’t understand them for you.

Shouldn't Hunter Biden be in jail by now? Bidens campaign in smithereens?
Considering the indisputable evidence you presented..

Oh, we are changing the subject I see. Probably wise.
Hunter Biden? Why should Hunter Biden be in jail, it’s not illegal to be a sleaze ball and a drug addict profiting off your fathers name. Not recommended, but not illegal either.
If you mean Joe Biden... then yes I agree, the evidence is stark - should he lose the election I absolutely see some form of judicial punishment, however it will probably be in the form of some kind of large fine with an understanding he will step away from politics. But these things take time, there are tens of thousands of emails and also witness statements.

It’s all contrived and transparent.
Joe was selected because he’s old, frail and weak and is a bit of a centrist that wouldn’t be as unpopular as Hillary. He is from Pennsylvania which may curry favour in a key battleground state and can be pushed over after he gets the party into the White House.
His running mate was dictated to him and all of the favourites were black women. It was a profile they wanted to fit, it’s all about identity politics and pandering. Which is why he plays Despacito on his phone in Florida and wears (what he thought) was a Philadelphia Eagles jacket in Philly.
Kamala openly said she thinks he’s a sex offender... yet Biden “picks” her? In the words of Joe himself “C’mon maaaan”.
It’s a contrived double act put together by a party to push communist and socialist ideals on America with the help of such contrived movements as BLM helped by ANTIFA.

Indeed.
We are discussing the latest story regarding Joe Biden’s son and his hard drive showing a vast array of criminal and corrupt activity, some involving Joe himself.
It is not a rumour that in the hard drive there was child pornography and compromising texts some even to Joe Biden himself from Hunter. They have been reported by people with first hand knowledge of what is on it and the people who have handed it over to the authorities as a result.
But maybe we shouldn’t mention it because it then adds a different moral dimension to defending the man, would be easier for the anti Trumpers no doubt. Sorry doesn’t work like that.
Sounds like something somebody should be in jail for..
People do no wish Trump to get another term a he is seen as
arrogant,devious immoral,which more or less describes JFK.
He gives off terrible vibes to those outside America especially with his ignorance of world affairs and indeed countries.
Biden,to me,looks a descripit rather forelorn figure who is up against the biggest political bully in generations and one who really should be smashed at the polls. Hillary Clinton was just about the worse candidate to stand against Trump but Biden is little better.
What a choice.What a state America i on to have 2 dullards like this on the cusp of such power.

I see now, you quoted a previous message.
Well yes indeed, the laptop is with the FBI and being handled by their top pedophile investigator. We shall see what happens with it, we will need to have evidence he downloaded/took them regardless of the overwhelming likelihood that would be the case.
But he’s the son of the Presidential candidate these people want to win the election, funny things happen. Put it this way, the way his hard drive is being handled will not be the same way yours would be shall we say.

Who are these “people” you refer to?
Many people would indeed like Trump to have a second term. Possibly even the majority of the country.
His successes speak for themselves, whether you like him personally is an irrelevance. It’s not Britain’s Got Talent, it’s the Presidency.
