    Trump just appointed Mike "Pray it Away" Pence to head up the Coronavirus response.

    Any chance he's setting Pence up to be the scapegoat so if things go badly he can ditch him the election and replace him?  If so, with who?  

    I'm saying right now that Ivanka's a dark horse to be Vice President this time next year.
    Nikki Haley.  this theory has been rampant on Twitter since he appointed Pence.
    That's definitely possible.  But I think the Trumps (and 40% of the population) want a Trump Dynasty.  I'd put the odds on Ivanka and Haley about even.  With Jr. a fairly distant third.
    wouldn't that violate nepotism laws?
    no. he wouldnt be hiring them. they would be voted in......
    no, what onwise is suggesting is donald appointing ivanka as VP. 
    No...I was suggesting her as running mate for 2020.
    sorry, that's what I meant. LOL I was just kind of running under the assumption that he's going to win again. This lot of dem candidates has me worried. 

    but anyway, wouldn't a father/daughter ticket be against the law? or no?
    The law from the late 60's (after Bobby Kennedy was AG) was about appointed cabinet officers, I believe.  The VP is an elected office, so it may be exempt from the law.  
    I suppose so. It just seems kind of weird, though. If trump dies or is removed, his daughter succeeds him. that's fucking royalty. 

    anyone know the level of outrage when JFK appointed his brother as AG? I'd be curious if it was at the same level as ivanka being one of his advisers. 

    when you think about it, that appointment (Bobby) was pretty dubious. 
    Bobby was definitely sketchy, but that's how the Kennedy's rolled, that's for sure.  At least he was a lawyer and had some experience serving as counsel, etc. I have no idea if there was outrage or not, although that was a different time and place where we didn't have 24 hours of cable news telling us how mad we should be.  
    this is exactly it, and why I hate social media and the 24 hour news cycle. I honestly don't think we'd all be stressed out as we are about trump if not for that. news is there to be bought and sold. so upping the drama definitely increases sales. I'm not distrusting of MSM like trumpsters, but wading through the "does this level of outrage fit the event?" is getting exhausting. 
    I can see your point but if it wasn’t for the reporters and 24 news cycle the Baffoon would get away with way more crazy shit..

    jesus greets me looks just like me ....

    no. he is picking tulsi in what he will call a "unity ticket" or some horseshit like that.

    So the DOW is down another 1,000 points and the Coronavirus appears to be gaining steam and is eventually going to have a real impact on the economy, similar to the crash and meltdown of 2008, if it continues to get worse. Does anyone have any faith that the Team Trump Treason Administration can lead us out of it? Anyone?

    but he's literally a nobody when it comes to the trump admin. all he's there to do is to give CNN a "we have a trump traitor" working for us. like it gives them some sort of credibility, when to me it does the opposite. they are grasping at the bottom of the barrel every time they have someone like him on.

    It's amazing how many on the left (which I am) think he's going to lose.  He's going to win; maybe even Reagan/Mondale style.  The Dems are going to have to figure it out if they want a chance to beat whichever of his offspring is going to run in 2024.  #TrumpDynasty is on.

    Totally depends on the market. The ONLY thing he hangs his hat on at his weird rallies is the performance of the stock market. Well, that just took a shit. If it doesn't recover, or goes fully into a bear market, he's cooked like Jimmy Carter was.

    History shows incumbent presidents are usually the favorite at this point in the campaign. So that's not unusual... The fact that he is not a larger favorite is probably due to the fact that he and his base refuse to expanded towards the moderate side, as past 2 term presidents have done. Who the hell knows???.. I guess you can throw out history since we now live with a Reality Show Gov't

    I honestly can't understand why anyone truly thinks they KNOW how the general is going to play out. remember 2016? no one predicted that, no matter how many times they claim to the contrary.

    I honestly can't understand why anyone truly thinks they KNOW how the general is going to play out. remember 2016? no one predicted that, no matter how many times they claim to the contrary. 
    I predicted Trump would win (both early in the primary, and then again when he was the nominee) so I will continue to make that claim (though I wouldn't have minded being wrong). But obviously not many people felt the same (certainly not the media). So I get what you're saying...it's silly to suggest Sanders has no chance when a loon like Trump won. And I agree, Sanders could win. Is it likely? No, but it wasn't "likely" that Trump would win to most people.
