Meanwhile, over at 538 he’s about to go into the red. Right now he’s at 55.9% Disapprove / 40.0% Approve.

That’s a 15.9% D/A spread. He’s going to go below 40% soon, and beyond a fraction of a point, he’s never going to go above it again, and in a few weeks he won’t even have those fractions. The number he should really worry about is his disapproval, which appears headed for 60%. But even with these numbers, there’s no way he can win, and no way he can contest it. He can’t even cheat with these numbers, it would be too obvious and too easily contested in court.

I guess if the Coronavirus is not going to go away anytime soon, beating a few hippies will keep the Fox News base happy.

Isn’t it rather early in the day for him to make a fool of himself?

So far MSNBC is ignoring this, but it appears they will have Nancy Pelosi on live at 1ET.

Ha!

It’s his excuse to get out of paying his respects to Congressman Lewis.

He will NOT be missed.

Someone ask him why CBP is using taxpayer dollars to cover up the fact that the wall fell down in June from a stiff breeze and not from the hurricane:

Then, someone please put a ‘POLICE’ sticker on their shirt and start beating everyone with a baton. According to the pathetic judge in Oregon, that makes everything kosher.

OT: From a friend in the Alexandria, VA neighborhood of Chad Wolf, there is a steady stream of protestors in front of his house and every night someone puts Biden signs in his yard.

I guess Trump can’t stand that John Lewis, a dead black Congressman is getting more attention and respect than he’s getting.

When I think of the number of things that Biden will have on his plate in January, I feel sorry for him.

My modest proposal is that he needs several VPs – Warren for the domestic economy, Abrams for election reform, Duckworth for military policy, Demings for police reimagining, Harris for anti-corruption, Rice for foreign policy, and Grisham for pandemic response.

In case of Biden’s passing, the rule could be that each of them is assigned to succeed him on one of the seven days of the week.

That’s what a Cabinet is for. We have forgotten that the Cabinet is supposed to conduct the Nation’s business, not service the limp dick in the Oval Office.
