    What's going on in America? Is Trump in the lead? Is Biden?

    My prediction is Trump wins. Democrats have taken the Hispanic vote for granted yet have done nothing to win their support. This cycle is all about the black vote, which pretty much is a given. The liberal media has spent the last four years painting Trump as racist. Then that fool Biden picks Harris, if he was smart he would have picked a latino. Add the massive enthusiasm gap and the Democrats really don't look nearly as strong as the media presents them...

    Close enough for a constitutional crisis and Trump tantrum running amok...

    I am no fan of the Dem Establishment or Biden for that matter.

    However I have to give credit where it is due.

    I could not appreciate why the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief saw Biden as his biggest threat in 2020 and why he MORONICALLY tried to get Ukraine to investigate the Bidens. Given that Pelosi had sat with her thumb up her ass with all of the other CRIMES committed by the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief it seemed strange to IMPEACH him over this transgression while IGNORING all of the prior lawlessness. It was even stranger to omit them entirely thereby making it easier for the GOP Senate to PRETEND that it was all just "partisan politics" when they acquitted him.

    But in HINDSIGHT the STRATEGY makes a great deal of sense. The wannabe Fascist-in-Chief is now the ALBATROSS of the GOP. They cannot put any room between themselves and his INCOMPETENT FAILURES. In essence they OWN him and EVERYTHING that he has screwed up.

    And that is only HALF of the strategy. The other half was Biden himself. TBH I saw Biden's LACK of charisma as being a problem up against the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief. Biden doesn't have what it takes to get people ENTHUSIASTIC about himself.

    But this was political Jiu Jitsu at it's FINEST where they are OFFSETTING strength against weakness.

    What are deemed to be "sleepy Joe's" weaknesses are actually his strengths and what are the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief's perceived "strengths" are his weaknesses.

    Biden is the ANTITHESIS candidate. He is quietly competent as opposed to the incompetent braggart. Biden is amiable, warm and down to earth as opposed to the abrasive, cold and self aggrandizing wannabe Fascist-in-Chief. Biden is normality personified as opposed to the raging chaotic divisiveness of the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief. Biden is deeply religious and cares about the less fortunate as opposed to the immoral lying callous disregard for the lives of others by the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief.

    This strategy made the CHOICE between them as STARK as possible for the electorate.

    You might not like Biden but there was NO valid reason to hate him the way the GOP had stoked HATRED of Hillary. Without NEGATIVES it was difficult to put together a coherent campaign AGAINST Biden. Calling him "sleepy Joe" in the "basement" backfired among Seniors who could find commonality with someone their age. Accusing Biden of "dementia" backfired when it was contrasted with the bizarre rantings and ravings of the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief. Attacking Biden's age and health when it is patently obvious that he is the fitter and healthier of the two choices backfired too.

    So the strategy has WORKED and it is the wannabe Fascist-in-Chief who has become his own WORST enemy. He cannot change himself and We the People already KNOW what he is and what he will DO given 4 more years as a FUGITIVE in the Oval office.

    The electorate has a CLEAR CHOICE between having their lives even further DISRUPTED and their FUTURE in JEOPARDY owing to the whims of a deranged narcissistic sociopath or a RETURN to NORMAL, a reboot, a do-over, a path towards tranquility where the Orange Oaf is no longer a daily headline of disaster.

    My prediction is that the MAJORITY of the electorate will REJECT the Drama Queen and pick Biden instead.
