See. Entertainment value.

The only entertainment from Biden is watching for him dozing off, keeling over or shaking imaginary hands.

Looks like he's on the vinegar stroke in that still. Always entertaining. Mad as a march hare but infinitely better than the walking dead.

I've made that assumption before. That's how I knew you were making the same mistake! Easily done. Your point still stands anyway. There are still some decent Republicans. MAGA is fucking batshit.

There is some polling that shows him and Biden neck and neck, but if the woman who came third was the candidate they would win by about 17 points. 

Biden will lose against Trump this time.  

Surely he can't be running again though? It's basically suicide 😂

I've already steeled myself for a second term of Trump. 

God knows what the world will look like by that time. 

The only plus is that we might get a favourable trade deal - but then we didn't get one last time so who knows?

Aye, it's mad.

Biden shouldn't even be in consideration. He's done his job, move on and let someone who doesn't require a bib to speak run.

Strange that Trump doesn't think this one is fixed - now he's won by a landslide! 🤣

Just putting it out there. I think he'll sell Ukraine out, withdraw funding and negotiate with Putin, allowing Russia to keep the Donbas and Crimea, and a guarantee that the US will veto any attempts to allow Ukraine to join NATO in return for a cessation in fighting. 

Or in other words. Russia wins.

Biden really ought to call Trump out and claim a recount.

How does that fit with the UN?

I also wonder if he, albeit as the president, could make such a decision if his advisors/military men said the opposite. I don't know what the general view is amongst such folk, obviously, but I do wonder if he would do that, should there be sufficient pressure not to.

I very much doubt DT cares about the UN. I think he's pretty much free to do what he wants in terms of foreign policy isn't he? 

In that I don't think he would need to get a plan to stop funding past the senate in the same way that he would if he wanted to send funding. 

And as far as negotiations with Putin go - I think he's got a free hand too. Without US support I think Europe would capitulate and Ukraine would have little option but to accept.
