Trump is saying that Biden will destroy the suburbs and that Biden will be moving the country in a Socialist and/or Communist direction.
Why doesn't Biden counter that with saying that Trump will wind up taking our country down and in the direction of Russia and how Putin runs Russia? After all - Putin is Trump's role model, mentor and handler. That is more likely to happen than the crap that Trump is spreading about Biden.
Do you Americans want to live like the people in Russia?
Wouldn't that be a good way to counter Trump and his made up lies and crap?

(23,710 posts)"You know what is actually threatening our suburbs?" Biden said during a speech in Delaware addressing fires burning across the West coast. "Wildfires are burning the suburbs in the West. Floods are wiping out suburban neighborhoods in the Midwest. Hurricanes are imperiling suburban life along our coast. If we have four more years of Trump's climate denial, how many suburbs will be burned in wildfires? How many suburban neighborhoods will have been flooded out? How many suburbs will have been blown away in super storms?"

(6,632 posts)make the mistake (in some instances) of not going hard against all the republican attacks, thinking (as most of us did) that the assertions and allegations were so tin foil hat conspiracy theory insane that no one could believe them? I can't remember any specific ones right now but it seems that this was the case...

(25,126 posts)Trump's nonsensical and juvenile taunts are very well known by now. Trump cannot brand VP Biden because the world already knows him.
Maybe the plan is to wait until they're in the debates. Then VP Biden can pull out the truth and the facts to illustrate Trump's incompetence and corruption. Additionally, that would be be the time to respond to Trump's idiotic and childish attacks.
Just a thought.

(13,839 posts). . . dehumanizing and destructive effect of the HUD policies that created the great housing divide and "ghettoization." Pointing out that these policies MUST change if we are to even begin to reverse the damage.
He could point to the successes in places that have actually implemented saner policies aimed at ending housing segregation. Run commercials that interview people in those neighborhoods and buildings that have integrated subsidized housing. Demonstrate that fears that the policies are "destroying" middle class neighborhoods have absolutely no basis in reality. The opposite. Greater diversity enriches.
