They should just give him the covid cookies tonight and put him out of his misery.
There are plenty of Biden gaffes and there will be plenty more, this wasn’t one of them. The idea that 95% of what he says is incomprehensible will be a fun trope to watch play out and is an easy sell if you’ve already made up your mind on him.
The bonus points go to the “this is so hard and depressing to watch” crowd, some of whom are genuine, many aren’t.

Can you imagine him in a meeting with someone like Putin?
He would end up giving Alaska back to Russia with the "look there, sign here" trick.
In my opinion, Trump has not been up to leadership task that the tims require.
In in the Grumble Camp on this one. I've admitted here many times that I am sympathetic to some of his policy goals vis a vis China, border security and no more nation building adventures. But pandemics are just not suited to his strengths. The messaging is just too sloppy and all over the map. We need clear, calm fireside chat type stuff to calm the irrational fears and get through this shit.
What should Trump have done that would have generated a better outcome here today May 14, 2020?
Xenophobic travel ban on Dec 31 and lock down granny in the nursing homes.
And that is why this is a black swan event. No one would have accepted that measure with what weº thought we knew at the tim.
The day the fake 2 million dead model came out was when Trump blinked. I'd like to think I wouldn't have but his own party panicked too. And if it was right who wants to be the guy to kill 2 million Americans
That's the past. We need to win the future
Next week will be really bad
I heard Experts said the #SecondWave will be deadlier than the first and will Strike Down the Young and Healthy, true?

Not sure if serious. But in hindsight, they should have left the positive cases in the Homes and taken the healthy ones to the empty hospitals. Since it all started in a nursing home, it shouldn't have been that hard to see that.
Heard also that if you’re Young and Healthy and enjoy a Young and Healthy Lifestyle? Kiss it goodbye if you catch Vid. It ravages your lungs and you Never heal.

Not enough hospitals. Lots more nursing homes than hospitals.

Actually since it isnt that big of a deal we dont need shit.
It’s a big deal. Not 2 million dead big deal and not worth the trade off of sending the US into a Great Depression and all that entails.

Maybe not spend 3+ years antagonizing half the country, eroding trust, and being a liar?
Just a thought.
He’s Putin’s puppet though. I heard it on The News.
Trump’s a horrible person, but you can’t be president without being a narcissist that has done truly terrible things. We’ll always be choosing between the lesser of evils.

I've actually been pleasantly surprised with what he's done. He hasn't panicked and shut everything down like the left would have but hasn't ignored it and done nothing like many on the right would have. Testing has been a debacle but at least the CDC shares some of that blame. And somehow he hasn't fired Fauci despite his notoriously itchy trigger finger and his seemingly constant willingness to pander to his base's thirst for blood.
I would have expected him to handle this worse than he has.
To Yella's poont his communication has been as inconsistent and ill-informed as one would expect though. That matters, not as much as what he *does*, but it still matters.
I can't really think of a politician I think would have done much better through this though. Maybe Mitt. Maybe.
Sark > Ty and all that but Trump has exceeded my minuscule expectations. I'm fairly okay with him being in charge through this.
I think we'd be pretty fucked with just about anyone in charge.
Mitt? Fuck that guy! He's the worst fucking kind of politician. And he wears magic underware and thinks he's going to inherit a planet of which he'll be a god to all the souls he bought (apparenty prays for) here on Earth. He'd be the epitome of the pajama wearing, hot cocoa sipping faggot, beta male to promote Obamacare.
