    That wouldn't be a debate. That would just be Trump throwing personal insults and acting like a petulant child. I've never seen him engage in a coherent conversation or even stay on a single point.

    True. He would just drag any debate down to the lowest common denominator and the MAGA idiots would lap it up.

    Your statement is factually incorrect, though. Bernie was not presented to 'the Americans.' He was presented to the Dems and they shafted him. Big difference.

    But go ahead, condemn 'Americans' en masse.

    If Bernie was "too far left" for the dems, then he is way, way, way too far left for independents. That's not an indictment of Sanders at all who would be centre left in most of Europe, it's a damning statement about the US. FF and FG would both be outright communists in many of their eyes.

    The USSR might have "lost" the codl war, BUT THE USA onky lost tgo a slightly lesser degree - it broke their collective minds as a nation. Their only hope are the millennials and Gen Z crowd rectifying it in the future, if there's a democracy or much of a nation left to salvage at all at that point.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see it splinter. The west coast states break away, the north east as well. They're as different from people living in Tennesse and Arkansas as we are from Australians. We probably have more in common with Australians.

    So, you've never seen the Antifa crowd hurl missiles at crowds all while CNN were begged to turn on their cameras only to say, nah.

    There are plenty of false actors out there.

    Anyway back on topic...

    Interesting he's done a disappearing act before Q&A tonight. Think that's a first?

    Hopefully reporters have some good questions ready tonight, although don't think it will take much to push him over the edge this evening going by his afternoon's tweeting!

    All entirely relevant to the man's actions daily in the role of leading one of the most powerful countries on earth.

    Sure it's grand, whatever he does and says, it's all someone else's fault.

    Nice deflection, hat tip to you sir.

    Meanwhile, the rest of the world is busy figuring out how to contain and deal with Covid-19 instead of finding cheap political shots to be fired across the brow of those actually working on the ground.

    Has he the power to tell the governors to shut down their states?

    Has he the power to tell the governors to open back up their states?

    Is he the "all powerful" or should I use dictator there? Am I speaking your language yet?

    Says the lad who brought a conspiracy theory to the forum.

    Yes loads of people are working to get the better of this thing. Not Trump, hes to busy watching Cuomo and others on TV and tweeting inciting crap.

    He certainly seemed to think that he did not so long ago, probably until someone sat him down and explained reality to him.
    Seems to be having a bit of a huff about it since however when some governors won't do what he wants and he can't get his way.

    Pence is at one side of Fauci nodding, and Trump on the other side with a face like a smacked arse.

    If he was standing there smiling you would say he isn't taking it seriously.

    THE PRESIDENT: Peter, I just have to say that, as we see a hotspot possibly developing — maybe not — but if we see a hotspot developing, we’ve learned a lot. We’ll be able to suppress it, whack it. We’ll be able to do things that people weren’t even thinking about because nobody has ever gone through this.

    Whack it! Do things people weren't even thinking about.

    Interesting times ahead!

    So you don't really know then, do you?

    Or is it, you don't want to know? What a conundrum that original question posed for you.

    You can always take a walk down Chinatown with Pelosi if you want. It's lovely there and nothing to fear - her words.

    Cuomo would have my vote.

    It's great to see someone in the States call out Trump publicly on his BS.

    This was a very good listen.

    Don't know much about Cuomo, what's the dirt on him :)

    Can string a sentence together anyway in comparison with Donald.

    I like the bit about, I'm done ha, cause that's how Donald sounds at the moment, like its all over.
