How did Pence get on in the GOP primaries in 2015/2016? Last two if I remember correctly?

I don't recall him ever making the top 5.

Exactly, to try to call into question Harris because she wasn't selected in the primaries is inherently nonsensical unless one is also aghast at Pence being VP

The rules change once Biden wins I can tell you.

That laptop will go missing.

Biden will be in for at least 4 years unless there are health reasons

What do mean 'the rules change'? Are you unaware of the investigations Trump and his administration have interfered with made go away?

It would be sitution normal, on the basis of the precedent and example set by the current regime.

Apparently Biden is going to throw all sorts of sh1t at trump tonight regarding

Numerous Affairs with hookers including victims of trafficking
Alleged abortions he demanded and paid for
Drug abuse by Trump, his ex wife and his children
Alleged drug trafficking by Eric Trump
“Kompromat” by Russia - videos of trump in extremely compromised positions
Serious fraud by Trump companies involving his children
Secret Chinese bank accounts and debts owed to the Chinese government
Huge debts he owes to Russia individuals and North Korea
Huge debts he owes to Deutsche Bank
Blatant incidents of racism and sexism

Joe is not remembering all that, so will probably just attack his debts if anything.

And I don't think Sarah Palin even ran!

If Trump just went Ali G on it, I wouldn't be overly shocked. I mean I'd definitely be a *bit*, but nowhere near the level that would be appropriate for any other US pres.

I sincerely hope all the mailed in votes, the kerbside Covid votes and all that are looked after by people with integrity before the count commences.

Just saying.

I've always thought that Trump picked Pence as an insurance policy against getting impeached. Just as well in my opinion that he got to stay POTUS because I think Pence would be a very dangerous man in that role.
Trump is full of lies and bluster and is a horrible human being but he cares about nothing but himself.
Pence is a guy who in that role could decide to go to war with a country without a good reason. He's anti-women and anti-gay and who knows what else.

That would be an ironic twist I suppose.

Just thinking after posting that, seems surreal that I'm thankful Trump served his full term.
It feels so wrong saying that.

I thought he picked him to shore up the christian vote? (Which is still pretty massive in the US).

I agree with the rest totally.

Yeah, it seems the head of one of the most Conservative institutions in the world is more left wing than the vice president of the land of the free.

How the turntables

I worry about the misinformation people are digesting over on Fox and places.

Like here's Ingraham. She's blaming the emptiness of an International terminal at the DC airport on 'Liberal Governors' closing their states.

It's apparently lost on her that Terminals with destinations like Germany etc. do not fly right now, because US travelers are being restricted going to those countries, by those countries, because we have screwed up our Covid response.

To have such a glaring lack of critical thinking and imparting that to her audience, I worry for folks.

Which is less suited to be in power:

1.) a person who doesn't understand scientific method and believes some fairy tale told to them on face book.

2.) a person who does understand scientific method, but cynically for personal gain, gains power implementing policies they understand will damage the planet causing damage of biblical proportions.

You do know Biden said "Trump is lying, I wont ban Fracking"

You do know Scientists say "Ban fracking"

Source?

(Spoiler alert iirc Biden's policy will be to limit new permitting if not end it completely. Current permits and businesses will continue to operate under those licenses etc, they will not be ordered to cease operating)

You need a source to tell you climate scientists don't think fracking is a good idea?

That's not what you said.

You said scientists called for a ban on the practice. The linked Headline says the scientists (20 of them, not a consensus or anything) called for a ban on fracking. The problem with that is, nothing in the article actually mentions a ban, and they don't state as much in their letter to the California Governor. According to your own link they were only "telling him that his plans supporting increased use of the controversial practice of hydraulic fracturing, or “fracking,” will increase pollution and run counter to his efforts to cut California’s global warming emissions."

Doesn't actually demonstrate a call to ban the practice. Haven't seen any collection of scientists or an authoritative body call for fracking facilities to have the power cord ripped off of them overnight.
