You live in a fantasy world like the other Trump supporters. He is the definition of a despicable human being: While thousands of people are dying he brags about his popularity on Facebook. This kind of behavior is the norm with him, happens nearly every day!mickojak wrote: ↑April 1, 2020, 5:30 pmI have many American friends.
Most very successful businessmen.
None of then are remotely close to being "DUMB".
They all love Donald Trump because he is re-making America into what it once was, a powerful and respected country.
Its amazing how many people can criticize his leadership during one of the most important times in US history.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing, but when leading the country through times like this there are many, many areas and ramifications to consider with each decision made.
As for Trumps odds, its a bargain.
He's not just going to win, but he will annihilate the democrats.
Very few of them will hold there seats.
Time will tell, but i've posted it now, so I look forward to after the election to see what comments come back at me.
I don't think there will be many.

He has put this country in self-destruct mode, with both the budget and deficit skyrocketing out of control. If I recall, it was the Democrats who racked up and left Donald Trump some $20 billion in debt which has accrued during one of Americas most prosperous 10 year periods in history.
Any president would be considered a success if they just printed and handed out money. Yep, that's what Obama did which helped accrue all that debt.
Remember, somewhere down the road someone is going to have to pay for all of this irresponsible spending. Considering the above comments regarding the debt accumulation, are you trying to convince me that a Democrat elected president would reduce the debt, especially in the light of a unprecedented and totally unpredictable global pandemic. They couldn't even save money when times were good.

Re: US Presidential election odds
noosard, my reference was well after the hiccup you described, Trump lusts after authoritarian rule, his inner circle interpret the power of POTUS being way beyond White House staff, and way beyond what The Republican Party has ever done in the past .
For those that think Trump will romp it in his November, there will be a lot of reckoning between now and then. There is a saying that 24 hours is a long time in politics, there are a lot of those 24 hour periods between now and then.

That would be January 2007 - January 2017.
Were you asleep during the GFC of 2007 - 2009?
See aboveAny president would be considered a success if they just printed and handed out money. Yep, that's what Obama did which helped accrue all that debt.
No, he didn't actually - according to any reliable source.As Albert Einstein said; Doing the same thing twice and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity.

The budget and deficit skyrocketed in the beginning of Obama's administration due to the recession caused by Bush and took several years to recover. Trump inherited a strong economy, gave tax breaks to corporations claiming it would have a trickle-down effect, but in fact all these corporations used their money they saved with stock buyback, not expanding, which gave us a false stock market. And Trump's budget and deficit increase has occurred during, as he claims, "the greatest economy ever".
Not sure what greatest 10 year period you are referring to. The economy crashed here in 2008 and took a couple years to recover. I should know, I lost half my money in my TSP.
All these facts have occurred before the pandemic occurred.
By the way, I'm not a Democrat, so try again.
Re: US Presidential election odds
Based on raw facts Ken 100% correct. Now the US faces a crazy growth in debt, the tax cut to big business has not been replaced with 'trickle down' economic growth dividends. The rich got richer and the government is now in deep doggy doo.
Happy for Mickojak to quote actual figures to prove me wrong, but facts mate, not opinion. When you do so, don't cheery pick 2016 onward, growth trends and unemployment trends all improved significantly under the Obama recovery years. Trump inherited an economy clearly on the mend.

Trump did get something out of this pandemic that he had always wanted, 0% - .25% interest rates. That's saving him and his buddies millions of dollars in interest on loans.

Re: US Presidential election odds
My monies on Trump to bound in on re- election, as it was last time..He may be unorthodox, brash, rude, love locker room chat, or whatever, but alot of people like that, and he has a way making the other person look bad in a face to face debate.Hilary didnt stand a chance, nor will Joe or Bernie..He of all people became President of the USA, he weathered the Metoo storm, and an impeachment, and every other underhanded trick to unseat him..He has a 50/50 chance..my money is on him.
Re: US Presidential election odds
On the betfair exchange
Donald Trump $2.08
Joe Biden. $2.42
If you fancy an outsider
Hilary Clinton 70-1
Michelle Obama. 270-1
Ivanka Trump. 430-1

Re: US Presidential election odds
I would not say underhanded trick, as he himself used his OFFICE to stop, harry and generally thwart a democratic process aided and abetted by his sycophantic Senators.
Take them away and he emerges just as he is a lying two-faced manipulator or as one Senator said a MORON .
