Biden: I managed to take my own SAT, Mr. President.

He really wants to deny the COVID-19 disaster altogether but his handlers have managed to explain to him that’s not an option and he needs to appear at least marginally concerned. So instead he resorts to the conspiracy theories: blue state hoax and conspiracy. Deflect, distort, distract. Rinse and repeat.

Joe Biden was just on tv, boarding a train to tour Ohio and Pennsylvania.

Meanwhile in the White House, Trump just stirred from his overdose, and is trying to comprehend where he is. (It doesn’t look like a golf course.)

Well, the Vikings are leading the way for Covid 19 into the rest of Minnesota. I’m a Chiefs fan, but there is no fuckin’ way any sport at any level should be going on right now. Our entertainment is NOT more important than player’s lives!

I think he is profoundly stupid. He doesn’t need to be smart to be driven to manipulate out of vast fear and boundless shame. And his manipulations are obvious and childish. It would be much worse if he was smarter.

Also…if I was “anti-abortion” I wouldn’t feel comfortable with what I heard. No definitive statement when he had the chance. He knew that was a losing proposition in sum.

Over/under on the number of times he will mention Chris Wallace?

Do you really think iterations 2 and 3 will happen?

I’m not so sure. I can’t see the Trumpanzee turning down 90 minutes of free air, but the Presidential Debate Commission has got to have terminal embarrassment after last night’s shitshow. It wouldn’t surprise me if they cancelled the last two ‘debates’.
