Breitbart typically appeals to Trump's base. I feel like a Trump supporter reading that immediately shifts the blame from Trump to Congress and it gets them fired up about the #resist movement. If that's the case, it's super effective. Especially if folks down there remember that Trump ”resigned” Sessions for his recusal.

When I saw it posted on the Twitter it was definitely a shot at Tubs and how he doesn’t support Trump. Which I thought was odd considering Sessions is the other major candidate. Moore is also running.

Why?
Sessions is now a retread. Tuberville has some fire.

What do you all think about Trump firing Admiral Joseph Maguire for his aide briefing the House Intelligence Committee about Russia's interference with this election?

Today they are saying the Ruskies are trying to help Crazy Bernie. They have been checking out our elections for donkey's years, just like we have to doing to countries all over the world. Outcomes of elections have been impacted 0% of the time. It is all 100% political distraction and :BS

Epic. Trump should absolutely play this at his rallys (and maybe incorporate into a campaign ad.)
2 Observations:
1) Pretty impressive job on the vocals. He sounds nothing like McCartney, but it's solid.
2) Bob didn't go to Liberty (1:06).

This posiable pandemic is another very good reason for "orderly" "controllable" boarders between countries.

My nightmare scenario. Biden wins the nomination, and early in the general election continues to decline physically and mentally to the point that they can no longer prop him up and he needs to drop out, which means the DNC gets to choose his replacement. They talk Michelle Obama into running.

Pocahontas a rising star? :rofl (She's 70 years old BTW)

I suppose you could add Ilhan Omar to the socialist list, although the devout among the Muslim Somali voters in her district who got her elected are not happy with her "indiscretions." She could end up a one term wonder.

Sparticus Booker?
Beto, El Latino Falso?
Probably not, but I think both have more appeal than Gillebrand.

Pretty strong list on the GOP side. Here's another one from way outside the box. He tends to be polarizing, but is really smart and talented........... Ben Shapiro. He's been asked repeatedly, and has never ruled it out.

Or Biden chooses Sanders as running mate to keep the crazies engaged. Gets elected and then totally loses it and Sanders is Pres.

I can't see that ever happening. I highly doubt Biden would offer it, but if he did (out of desperation to get the bros on board,)I doubt Bernie would accept. This is one time AOC is correct. They really aren't in the same party. Joe may have moved way to the left on a lot of issues, but he is not a socialist.

That’s what I think it’ll be.
Maybe. Or Klobuchar. Or Warren.
Klobuchar and Warren are too white. If you’re gonna nominate an old white dude for president in the Democratic Party, you’ve gotta have black or brown in the VP slot.
