Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - PaulP - 11-10-2020
Pfizer understands full well that Biden will represent their interests with greater decorum and greater predictability than Trump.
P.J. O'Rourke said the following in 2016, about Hillary, but it applies to all politicians IMO, except one :
"I am endorsing Hillary, and all her lies and all her empty promises," O'Rourke continued. "It's the second-worst thing that can happen to this country, but she's way behind in second place. She's wrong about absolutely everything, but she's wrong within normal parameters."
That last sentence is the clincher for me. Most politicians are standard-issue-dodgy and standard-issue-grubby. Biden, Obama, Clintonsx2, Bushx2...........but Trump is a law unto himself, completely off the charts in any category when compared to others. For every one dodgy thing you can find about Biden etc., you can find dozens about Trump. He is so far outside of "normal parameters" it's not funny.
The choke hold that he has had on political debate is suffocating. 4 years of non stop reporting on his latest tweet, gaffe, insult, sacking. Any interest in actual policy has been completely swamped by endless sh1t. I would defy anyone to name 5 policies of Trump's era without using google. We cannot focus on anything of substance while he is in office.
If you are a Trump fan, I don't see the point of trying to find dirt on Biden or anyone else. It's a mug's game, and you will be on an absolute hiding to nothing. His list of indiscretions is so far ahead of other pollies. He will undoubtedly go down as the worst president in US history, an embarrassing episode that I for one hope is never repeated.

That's easy Paul:
1. Make America great again.
2. Build a wall.
3. Have a trade war with China.
4. Allow Encourage bigotry to flourish.
5. Cure COVID-19 by injecting bleach.

That means Pfizer didn’t know who had taken the vaccine and who had taken the placebo. That information wasn’t unmasked until last Sunday. I know Trump has a problem with unmasking generally but at least no Russians were involved on this occasion
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - Baggers - 11-10-2020
David and Mav in fine form this arvo... thank you for the belly laughs, fellas!

While I’m at it:
6. Trash natural and cultural heritage protection.
7. Fire anyone who displays competence and/or basic morality.
8. Employ family members in roles far beyond their capacity.
9. Seek and follow advice from said family members rather than the content experts.
10. Buy Greenland.

Wow! The Dow is up 1700 points since Election Day. And Trump loved to say only he could drive up the sharemarkets ...
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - dodge - 11-10-2020
The markets had priced in Democrats gaining control of both houses some time ago. With this more unlikely, confidence that the wildly centre- right Democrats won't get anything disadvantageous to wealth through parliament, business can proceed as normal.
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - Mav - 11-10-2020
So, it’s a vote of confidence in Biden.
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - dodge - 11-10-2020
More that he doesn't have unfettered access to increase taxes and other 'anti- wealth' policies

Haven't you got something better to do?
Pointing out Trumps flaws is very low hanging fruit. Its like shooting a deer in headlights.....who is also tied up.....and tranquilised....and standing under a bright neon sign saying kill me pointing at it.
