April 24th: Biden warns Trump will try to delay election, Trump calls Biden "conspriacy theorist"

April 24, 2020:

Joe Biden: “Mark my words, I think he is going to try to kick back the election somehow, come up with some rationale why it can’t be held,” Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee, said on Thursday night in remarks at an online fundraiser.

Trump campaign: “Those are the incoherent, conspiracy theory ramblings of a lost candidate who is out of touch with reality."

I made a "morality alignment" chart for 2020 American politics

Following up from my post yesterday on the Buzzfeed quiz on people's "morality alignment", I decided to try to make a chart for 2020 American politics. Thoughts?

What is your morality alignment?

It's a boring day, it's hot and raining right now, so Buzzfeed quizzes it is for me today. This one is the most interesting one I found so far, a good old fashioned moral alignment system test. Where do you fall? Mine is neutral good, so....thats fun I guess.

Here is a little chart that seems to give good comparisons from pop culture on what each one means, in case you're unfamiliar.

McConnell has warned Trump that they will abandon him if he doesn't turn things around by Labor Day

This isn't a very new story. A few weeks ago there was an article on Vanity Fair that McConnell had warned Trump that if he can't turn things around by Labor Day that the Republicans are going to basically cut off Trump and leave him to his fate, in order to try to save the senate. Obviously in the time Trump's position has become worse, not better so it isn't looking good. However, to put into prospective how little time Trump has, if McConnell's ultimatum is true, we are only 6 weeks away from the point of no return between Trump and the Republicans. Do you know what happened 6 weeks ago already?

The time between that crime against humanity and today is how much time Trump has left to turn things around. That not a lot....



Edit: Here the article BTW

Do the attacks on Biden's health seem familiar?

I remembered that the Republicans made Hillary Clinton's health a major issue in 2016, after hearing endlessly about "dementia!". So I decided to do some digging and ended up in quite the rabbit hole. Here is a link of 18 different right wing headlines about Hillary's wide ranging, deadly diseases from 2015-2016.
