CNN: How job losses could affect Trump and the 2020 election. https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/05/politics/trump-reelection-job-losses-analysis/index.html CNN was disparaging this correlation a few months ago saying it was moderately true if not false altogether. Now they cant claim it's a true critical factor enough. CNN is trash. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatetopa 17,123 #2802 Posted April 7, 2020 I worry a lot less about Joe now. We are seeing that state governors can be pretty capable of handling national emergencies. Next time, they will be even better. They will know that they have to be self reliant and get busy preparing for the next one. Some may even make mutual aid treaties among themselves. Those of you who wish for a smaller government may be in luck. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spartan max2 17,346 #2804 Posted April 8, 2020 (edited) Won't know the Wisconsin results until next week. The governor tried to do some last minute delay of the election but was denied. Edited April 8, 2020 by spartan max2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would applaud a Republican governor who did the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would applaud a Republican governor who did the same. I think the supreme court made the right call. A governor should not have the unilateral power to move an election with executive order. Wisconsin governor went to the legislature first, who voted against it. So if anyone is to blame/praise it is the legislature. To your second part, in Ohio, republican governor Mike Dewine did move the election to all mail. (Though the way he did it seems illegal to me). Overall though I can see a reasonable debate between public health and protecting the right to vote. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

F3SS 19,387 #2810 Posted April 9, 2020 Since nobody has mentioned that we finally have an answer to the threads question. Joe Biden. The new question is The Democratic Nominee: How will they get rid of him? I've never seen so much losing in such a grand fashion by one group of people as I have seen from the Democrat party over the last 4 years. What a bunch of stooges. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
