    What virus? You mean the one pelosi and de Blasio said was harmless and that a travel ban from the country with the virus is racist?

    I’m Calling you out. If you were president, what would you have done to curb the virus. Be specific, but I doubt you will. In fact, I’m sure of it.

    His own book said he was Kenyan. His own book.

    Either he’s Kenyan or the biggest friggen idiot on the planet. But I’m sure you can explain it, you know, living in a penal colony who stole an entire island from the natives makes you the perfect person to explain American politics to Americans.

    For those with perhaps less context, a quick recap.

    Obama despised Biden.

    Obama endorsed Hillary over Biden in 2016.

    Obama endorsed Biden this time only when the other candidates had dropped out.

    Obama, last week leaked that Biden was a moron and always F's things up. He wanted that in the news.

    Tonight Obama made the convention about him, overshadowing the VP candidate (which was the point of today).

    Tonight Obama went into temper tantrum mode about Trump. Translated that means he's still butt hurt about his legacy of failure.

    I should ask you that.

    Trump is my nations President because of Obama.

    Who is your nations President?

    It is refreshing to hear an articulate, intelligent President speak inspiring words.
    I miss that.

    Thanks to the Electoral College, Trump was elected.

    I'll ignore the taunt and respond factually. Our borders are closed other than to people (including returning Aussies including Aussie Military) who, when they arrive go into Govt controlled and regulated quarantine at their own expense for 14 days. That also applies internally between States.

    The taunt was the xenophobic comment, ~ "How xenophobic that country must be," ~ but I guess you did not see that.

    Huh huhhh huhhh hah haa, when OUR PRESIDENT wanted to suspend travel from the epicenter he was a called a "racist xenophobe" as he would be now if he enacted the same policy as your foreign nation now enjoys, yet you sit here and bash him for the numbers of OUR Nations pandemic numbers. I've watched it nearly every damn day.

    Not by me.

    Further, there is nothing xenophobic about treating every entrant the same way as we do down here. Sure, come in.....but no matter who you are, you are going into Govt controlled and regulated quarantine at your own expense for FOURTEEN Days. Let me know where the xenophobia can be found there.

    Have you NOT criticized his handling of the pandemic and stumped for Biden who called it that? Really?

    I have, as most have, been critical of Trump's "handling" of the pandemic. I cannot recall ever 'stumping' for Biden. Maybe you can enlighten me on where I have done that, okay?

    Simply by being so critical of him here, Biden is the only other viable option and called him a "xenophobe" for wanting to limit travel as you are very well aware of. Dont be coy. I can use the search function. You know you support Biden over him.

    I pity anyone who wasn't moved by Obama's speech. It was a reality check in the extreme, and very moving.

    The caliber of comments on this forum particularly coming from the right establishes clearly the level of sophistication here is very poor. Whenever I meet a foreigner, I often remark that there are more stupid people per square mile in America than any of the western developed countries. Hopefully, the better angels will win and that there are more of us than them ( who actually get out and vote) in November.

    I pity anyone who thinks Obama is anything more than a coup plotter, the caliber of their perception is the size of a single piece of #9 birdshot.

    I'd support, as I have said a zillion times, a drover's dog over Trump. I'd also prefer that the Democrats came up with someone with a brain cell. They didn't, but at least they found a VP nominee who can still find her way to the dunny.

    I never thought it was Russia or Facebook posts. It was the Electoral College who gave him the election, even though Hillary had 3 million more votes than Trump had.

    Nonsense. Every single thing Obama said about trump was true and every American knows it in their soul. Even trump supporters.

    When did you turn into a Conservative? Because the Democrat faithful believe otherwise. Been parroting it for about 4 years.
