Trump says he has constitutional right.
Praises ACB.
Biden: People have say on who is on SCOTUS. Not going to get that chance. Already voting started.
First lie: Biden.
Says ACB said she thinks the ACA is unconstitutional. Not true. She said the mandate might be unconstitutional.
Biden right on pre-existing conditions. But highly debatable whether court would overturn.
Trump rightfully says RBG said the President has the right during his term.
Nice factoid.
isAccording to a new analysis by the is HHS, 50 to 129 million (19 to 50 percent of) non-elderly Americans have some type of pre-existing health condition
First COVID argument:
Biden attacks Trump on 200k deaths.
Trump says Biden would have done worse.
Trump right on Roe v Wade...it really is not on the ballot.
Next question: Health care.
Trump and Wallace fight over the question.
Trump questioned on what his plan is.
Trump makes up some stat on drug prices that makes no sense.
Biden on public option:
Would be Medicaid auto enrollment.
Biden calls Trump a clown.
Biden, by the way, has hedged on whether he would oppose Medicare for All.
"To put it another way, Biden only had critical words when asked about Medicare for All, but he didn’t bluntly state he would veto it.
The statement is partially accurate but takes things out of context. We rate this statement Half True."
Biden now asked about packing the court.
Biden is a coward on this. He should say he won't do it.
But he can't.
Biden is so dumb on this. He should just say he won't. He could always flip flop later.
Next question on COVID.
Biden nicely lays out facts on cases, deaths, etc.
Trump in retort:
Hits Biden on not closing the border. Attacks China. Then lectures Biden on death counts in China.
Hits Biden correctly on closing the border.
Trump is right...even Dems like Cuomo and Newsom did praise Trump at times.
Biden argues the economy is shut down because of Trump.
That is ridiculous.
Biden makes the emotional plea about deaths. That is effective.
Biden says we don't trust the vaccine.
Wallace asks about the vaccine.
Trump says Pfizer, J&J, Moderna all say the vaccine can come quickly.
Biden rightfully hits Trump on Easter end, the bleach, etc.
Wallace asks about Harris undermining vaccines.
Biden: Scientists do not work for him.
Trump: I spoke to the scientists in charge.
Biden: "All lies"
Again, this is not good for vaccine trust.
Biden insults Trump on intelligence.
Trump attacks him back.
Wallace: Question on opening.
Biden: We need a plan.
Trump says Pelosi and Schumer blocking.
Trump says Biden wants to close down the economy.
Wallace: about masks.
Trump: I wear it when needed. Then makes fun of Biden's mask.
Biden incorrectly says Fauci never got masks wrong (he did, early on).
Trump claims outside is fine for rallies.
Biden: Attacks Trump on distancing.
Was hoping Biden was going to attack outdoor rallies...that would have been fun.
Then called him a fool.
Wallace on economy:
Trump: Greatest economy ever. Biden wants to close things down. Harmful for depression, drugs, etc.. Says trust people.
Biden: Hits him on personal taxes.
Biden says people on front lines are the ones losing jobs (who is he talking about?).
Biden talks about small businesses and restaurants closed.
But how is Biden going to bring them back if the disease lasts one more year? Doesn't make sense. Europe is proving that strategy isn't going to hold up.
Biden is wrong: All those tax code advantages were OBAMA ERA TAX LEVELS.
Trump: I've done more in 47 months than you have done in 47 years.
Biden avoids tax question: Should you raise taxes during a recession?
Biden doesn't seem to want to answer it?
Wallace: Obama's last 3 years had more job creation than first 3 years of Trump.
Wallace asks about law and order...is it a party issue?
Trump: Yes it is a party issue.
Biden: I was raised in the suburbs! (wut) People traveling in the same cars! (wut).
Wallace: What is police reimagining, and BLM policies?
Biden: I am totally opposed to defunding (Good).
Trump : Name one police group that supports you.
Biden: STUMPED.
That ain't good, man.
Wallace: Re: Riots. As Dem nominee, have you called Portland/Oregon to stop the violence?
Biden: I don't hold public office now. They can take care of it if you stay out of the way.
Wow, that is a terrible answer.
Biden fact check on Conway is probably not accurate: "The more chaos and anarchy and vandalism and violence reigns, the better it is for the very clear choice on who's best on public safety and law and order,"
My problem with Biden's response to the vast surge in antisemitism on his watch is that his statements have been fine, but followed up with almost zero specific action by his administration. He has done as little as Trump did after Charlottesville.
Frankly, Biden and AG Merrick Garland have acted far, FAR more aggressively against conservative groups.
See how they responded to critics of schools. They were right to do this...but we've seen nothing of the sort against anti-semites. Why?
Let's see Garland's 'memo' targeting anti-semitic groups, largely pro-Palestinian ones, and then I might believe they are treating this threat reasonably.
Democrats are really, truly going to be stupid enough to let Donald Trump win, aren't they?
They are completely oblivious and trying to lose.
Let me count the ways:
1. Biden's age.
This is pretty obvious at this point. They are denying the reality of Biden's physical and mental decline. Voters see it.
2. Polling
Biden himself has said that the polls 'were wrong'. They aren't wrong. They are probably relatively accurate. Best case scenario, Biden is tied with a convicted, impeached opponent. Worst case, he is losing to that same clown.
The problem is that Biden is always wandering. This is not a unique moment. The media knows this, but since they are so dishonest, they have no credibility at all.
I think one thing a lot of people don't realize is Palestine isn't alone as a British protectorate that was never an independent country before the Brits left.
India ALSO DID NOT EXIST BEFORE PARTITION IN 1947. There was no 'India', in any real terms.
India was divided by numerous British protectorates or provinces. There was no 'India', as a nation. This was basically true of Palestine as well...there was no independent Palestine before division.
Lets note that Jinnah, the father of Pakistan, opposed the name India all together. “He [Jinnah] was under the impression that neither state (India or Pakistan) would want to adopt the British title of ‘India’."
I think this article largely misses the point. The reason that they are struggling is that this undermines what they've taught about racism and bigotry for 50 years.
Why Colleges Are Struggling To Crack Down on Antisemitism via @politicopoliti.co/3ucgtsE
Reality is that it was always easy: Whites and those in power were the bigots. Those that were 'Almost White' (Jews, Asians) were lumped in.
But in this episode, its largely 'brown' people like myeslf that are the bigots, and their targets are Jews (who are viewed as White).
In short, this up ends half century of liberal/progressive theology on racism. And colleges, run by those that run that theology, are struggling to face the fact that they've largely been wrong for 50 years.
