Yep. Here it comes, a well-timed foreign entanglement waiting in the wings...

Yoiks.
The rest of the DB article is a largely a breathless regurgitation of Russian talking points, a bit unsettling in the matter of fact way they are provided. It puts Putin's ongoing psychological warfare against the US on full display.
Still:

Oh, I don't think so. Nope.
It's about time.
She said the measure includes $8 billion for nutrition assistance for schoolchildren and families, and refreshes the Pandemic EBT food aid program for a full year.
Good. Those were the two big sticking points.
I was torn, but have made up my mind: to stop the debates is to let trump 'win' them.
He behaved this way precisely to get the debates cancelled, so that his blatant ignorance and lack of policy are not laid bare before the American people. As painful as the experience is going to be, the debates should go forward. trump should not be allowed to manipulate and break the system this way. Install a mute button for both candidates and continue on. Make trump do his moron dance again and again if that's the way he wants to play it. Make him own his complete lack of maturity and substance while Joe shows the world how a president should behave.
I should hope there are polls saying Biden won.
The consensus among the talking heads tonight is that trump was unable to control himself, that he showed no respect whatsoever for the process and the norms of a debate. He was a national embarrassment. Yes, again, but this was way off the charts.
Also, Facebook has some explaining to do.
https://www.channel4.com/news/revealed-trump-campaign-strategy-to-deter-millions-of-black-americans-from-voting-in-2016It means no complete public record exists of the ads posted on Facebook during the 2016 campaign or the audience lists used to target voters. The platform offered no Ad Library at the time.
Without Facebook or the campaign itself revealing the information, it means its not possible to ascertain exactly how potential voters in the Deterrence group may have been targeted on Facebook. [snip]
He added: I dont believe Facebook has fully disclosed their role, and fully disclosed the types of ads that were run, who was involved and literally how they may have been embedded in, say, the Trump campaign to make this all come to life.
An excellent explanation.
trump is not only completely unqualified to serve as president, he is financially unfit to even run for the office. He never should have been allowed on the ticket to begin with.
I'm really looking forward to the explanation of the $50 million loan.
