    Trump's advisors are not doing a good job ...

    In fact they're doing a lousy job, although it could be that
    they're right and he doesn't listen - but I don't think that's
    it, I think he's getting bad advice. Who advised him to go
    ahead with a face to face interview with Trump hating
    Chris Wallace ? Anyone paying attention to what's going
    on would know that Wallace would not conduct an impartial
    interview, in fact it would be more like an inquisition.
    From what I read it seems as though it was.
    I didn't watch it as I never watch Wallace just as I never
    watch Madow or Lemon.
    There are so many friendly hosts who would jump at the
    chance to sit down with him and conduct a productive half
    hour so why choose a host who would be combative ?
    That and other decisions leaves me scratching my head.

    You're disappointed he didn't get the usual softball questions. Which is to say that when held to a standard not of his choosing, he looks bad!

    Of course now I have to find the dementia test, to see the last 5 questions that Trump says are really hard.

      Togor is spot on on this one ...

      If we have to shield the man from tough questions then he isn't the leader the United States needs..... it really is that simple DT

          So tell me Ray... do you really feel the "Leader of the The United States " should be shielded from tough questions ?

          If you admit he should be , then you are admitting he's not man enough for the job .

          The job requires its applicant to be able to handle the position, and whatever question the citizens may ask .,

              Have you read anything that Biden has written? It's cogent. Ghost-written? Maybe, maybe not.

              But Trump never writes anything. Not a single op-ed.

              Advantage, Biden.

              Watched clips of Trump's interview. What we're seeing is someone with a lifetime learning disability who has become expert at deflecting, compensating, for his inability to follow the main point. Basically like a hockey player who can't really skate, so he turns the contest into a non-skating affair. Dyslexia is a possibility. I have a BIL who is dyslexic. He's learned how to do stuff visually, and is pretty handy. But if there are no vids, just written procedures, he's in a tough spot.

              Trump is from a generation where undiagnosed dyslexia was pretty common. They say he barely reads anything, and the stuff they give him to read has to have a giant-ass font.

              And then there's this about Article II of the Constitution:



              Here's a clip from March of Biden with Chris Wallace. The stuttering comes out a little bit with Biden, but if you listen to the ideas he's putting forward, it's coherent. Jumbled syntax not withstanding, there is a depth of thought with Biden that you just don't see with Trump.

                What's the post got to do with what Biden wrote?..

                Biden rarely comes out of the basement, Some thing like over 100 days without leaving it and havet to read his speech.. Nothing like live responding to questions

                  If Biden gets elected, he will serve less then a year before leaving the office for health reasons. Then the United States gets it's first female President who ever it maybe. (God I hope it's not Warren.) Then of course our beloved (YUCK) Nancy Pelosi becomes vice President. So is this what SP and Togor really want????

                    This would not be a case where the Speaker of the House would succeed to the Presidency.

                    United States Constitution, Amendment XXV:

                    Section 2.
                    Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.

                    So if Biden resigns or is removed, the Vice President becomes President, leaving a vacancy in the office of the Vice President. The new President then nominates a new Vice President.

                      Biden may have more gas in the tank than Trumpists want to believe. His VP choice could tell us a lot.

                      Meanwhile, he isn't saying things like this:
                      “So there’s a whole thing here. We won two world wars, two world wars, beautiful world wars that were vicious and horrible. And we won them out of Fort Bragg. We won out of all of these forts that now they want to throw those names away.”
                      Beautiful wars that were viscous and horrible?

                      And what does the name of the base have to do with anything?

                      No depth of thought there. But in fairness his face was melting.
