By David Singer, published 23/10/2020

Biden paints himself as an internationalist, but doesn't even want to talk about foreign affairs.

Joe Biden gets about 1 to 6 people at his rallies. President Trump gets thousands.
How come the polls show Biden ahead?

I saw it suggested on a utube interview that the Democrats are making it look like
Biden is doing better than he is, because it won’t look suspicious when they challenge the election results. I thought that makes sense.

It also allows the Democrats to forge more votes because people are being led to believe they are already getting those votes.

Biden undeniably has some sort of dementia or other early onset age related induced cognitive impairment. It’s been getting worse for months.

It won’t matter about his ability to deal with highly important foreign policy issues, let alone anything else. He’s cooked, in a few weeks Miss VP may have taken over by then anyway especially noting the growing realisation Hunter’s briefcase is the ticking time bomb the DNC has been dreading.

Then again there’s still time to change him out and put that lovely Clinton woman on the ticket, you know her, Killary is her name, “We came, we saw, he died...chuckle chuckle...

Lovely thought that, but then again Trump may just surprise us all again and win, that would be the ultimate irony eh!

Commentators living in America keep saying "ignore the polls". Australians think Americans are "just like us". They are not. The US is vast and varying. One veteran political reporter pointed to bumper stickers rather than polls. At the last election, Clinton bumper stickers were few and far between.

A consummate politician of Ancient Rome, Marcus Cicero,described as a fool anyone who thought that they could predict the results of a election. There were a hell of a lot fools around prior to the last US Presidential election, and they still can't believe the result.

Yes, if the polls were even half correct, rather than half-witted, we would have had a President Clinton and there would be no Brexit, just to mention a couple, among dozens of glaring examples.

Joe. Yes mate, agree with your take and we wait with trepidation for all hell to break loose and a state of emergency declaration that delays the result indefinitely? Until and unless the democrats can get up off of their arses and organise equivalent registering, and some law enforcement officers that are non-partisan, keeping peace at the polls!

Just 10 more days to go and in the key electorates, the republicans are registering republican voters in record numbers! As the Democrats have all but shut down their activity in this area.

And we can be sure there will be intimidation at the booths by the KKK, neo-nazis, white supremacists, rednecks and those whose IQ is/has tested negative, i.e., most if not all the aforementioned. No names no pack drill, but I'll let you "run" with that.

Ukrainian, Russian, and Chinese business interests!? Sorry, just politically motivated crap! And proven to be so, minus a single validated example! Just a rumour based on yet more, he said, she said, unproven rumour!

President Trump on the other hand had a Chinese bank account and a Trump Tower in Moscow. And may well be the big guy referenced in some of the Rusian originated emails.

Big guy could be one of a dozen billionaires, with questionable character, who we know little about? And because we will not deploy, covertly deployable, space-age, unbeatable lie detection! Something that could happen with the stroke of a minister's pen!

It would be good if Australians took as least as much interest in their own elections and politicians as they do in the US scene. Of course, we are in a rarified atmosphere on OLO, and perhaps the average voter is nothing like us.
