Another howler: How JFK Paved the Way for Donald Trump


I won't link to them, but just pathetic!

Of course they are going to say positive things about Trump's reelection. This is hardly a story. Just Politico trying to grab headlines and clicks.

It seems the story paints a much gloomier picture of the idiot's reelection chances while the delusional GOP think otherwise

If the trumpsters think he will win in a landslide, more power to them. I hope they feel that way in 4-1/2 months. They won't know what hit them.

I guess it makes their jobs easier, they know what they are expected to say without regard to the facts. I wouldn’t be surprised if he enjoys a bounce for awhile till the Covid numbers start taking off again though.

has been looking for almost four weeks now...there are few jobs and he will take a pay cut. This is not 2016. Trump is going to lose. He barely one last time.

Other than the two defeatists in the thread I think most of us see this for what it is.
