    I'm in *Texas*, and they now regularly cut away from the Trump conferences. Like, usually they'll air the first X minutes, and then cut away at some point and never go back.

    Happens to all long-running hits. They run out of new material and before you know it, the President of the United States is water-skiing over the shark tank.

    No, no, not at all. I will vote for Biden. I’ve said that many times. Some will not. They’ll stay home because they feel so strongly about sexual assault accusations. Not a credible accusation, you may say? Everyone will individually make that call and some will find it credible based on their interpretation of the story and Biden’s history of uninvited touching and kissing. Maybe that’s not fair, but it’s reality.

    Yes, Trump is far worse, by any measure. That doesn’t matter to some, like a friend of mine who is sexual assault survivor. It would be insensitive to condemn her for that.

    The accusations of assault against Bill Clinton were about 1000 times as credible as those against Biden. And yet, in the middle of the Lewinsky-impeachment drama, which was 24/7 if you're not old enough to remember, Americans didn't believe them. Why? Because they were familiar with Clinton and saw his basic MO as that of a seducer, not a predator. Same with Biden. Uncle Joe might not be up to date with the latest sexual mores, or even those of 1995, but commit an act of violence against someone? Does not compute with voters.

    Looks like DeSantis will be joining Trump and Koko B. Ware in the WWE Hall of Fame.

    No. Too many states. And of course, they’re getting more mileage during the lockdown than anybody else just by leveraging the iRacing platform.

    I'm not saying whether its credible or not, I'm just pointing out that a pending (unsubstantiated, uncorroborated) accusation is a ridiculous reason to vote for the alternative. Sorry to the victim, but we've got someone who says "just grab them in the p*ssy" and that's much worse.
