If Trump Wins Reelection, Look No Further Than The Media and Some on the Left's Response to Biden's

remarks.

We’re going on five news cycles essentially covering the fallout from Biden basically saying “if I could work with those racists, I can work with anyone.” But a president playing reality TV with potential war and being publicly and credibly accused of rape barely registers.

There’s no reason for the Dems to lose in 2020, but mark these words; they will lose if we and the media hold our candidates to ultra sensitive, PC, gaffe-free standards while continuing to hold the bizarro world president to bizarro world standards.

right now on the children's holding facilities on the border. This is a real issue that can be addressed right now-we have reports of children needing hospitalization.

Another important issue to address is how to deal with the Russian interference in 2020.

We need to be talking about now.

of "let's get the frontrunner." I don't take it personally, as good primary candidates have to weather this kind of nonsense to end up being good nominees.

But man Booker and Harris have taken a hit in my eyes. I'm glad the black leaders who experienced the most racism and have worked with Biden for decades have almost universally gotten his back.

The idiot in the WH. Perhaps there are more important issues for candidates to focus on attacking other than the front runner.
If they rise in polls hope they will be ready for what will come Down on them/ campaign. No one is perfect
