Originally posted by cryrst Go figure a left wing report. It's a report from a real journalist working within our internationally respected national broadcaster's "anti-disinformation unit". Dismissing such work as "left wing" is exactly what these conspiracy theorists want you to do. I suggest you consider the assertions and probabilities of them being correct on both sides of the argument. Look for real evidence, rather than oft-repeated other conspiracy theories that seem to have entered into the consciencness of some and become unquestioned fact, when they are simply untrue. Pizzagate was completely debunked. George Soros does not fund terrorism. etc etc. For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally.

I have a feeling this election is going to get a lot hotter as we near polling day. Trump is treading a careful path, perhaps because the election is seemingly his to lose. In the last 2 days before polling, Biden must be able to let loose some real dirt on Trump. Trump got off lightly with Stormy Daniels, and having to put his business interest under alternative stewardship. Biden lacks any sort of political charisma (from what I've seen). So will it be a case of the USA choosing the 'least worst option', rather than an inspiring candidate. ? I disengage, I turn the page.

Originally posted by Forest Hillbilly I have a feeling this election is going to get a lot hotter as we near polling day. Trump is treading a careful path, perhaps because the election is seemingly his to lose. How do you reach that conclusion? Trump is a consistent 10 points behind nationally and in all the battleground states. His odds have slumped to 2-1 against. An analysis of a variety of outcomes give him a 12% chance of winning. He is no longer the candidate of change, but needs to find new voters. Where will they come from? There will be heat, but it's not going to change anything. In the last 2 days before polling, Biden must be able to let loose some real dirt on Trump. Trump got off lightly with Stormy Daniels, and having to put his business interest under alternative stewardship. No need. The more dignified he acts the greater the differentiation will be seen. Biden lacks any sort of political charisma (from what I've seen). His appeal is not being Trump. It doesn't require anything else. In fact a bland charism probably helps as it enhances the contrast. So will it be a case of the USA choosing the 'least worst option', rather than an inspiring candidate. ? That's true, but often the case for many people who expect perfection and are disappointed when the opposition media dig the dirt which exists for everyone.
