I was shocked to hear from a Republican who said that we were near the end of the economic strife caused by the Covid19 pandemic. The end? I put us much closer to the beginning. Some laid off people stiff have paychecks in the pipeline coming in. The billions spent to keep "small businesses" afloat has been sucked up by large chain operators. Even if the virus has leveled off, I see at least 6 moths of economic misery before we get to the end of the middle. Am I being pessimistic?

I'm not sure what team Biden is going for here. Other than possible trying to give Morning Joe some Morning Wood, I don't see the point. In Short: Joe would have been on the phone with China. Trump rolled over. Trump is a fucker who praised the Chinese. PRAISED THEM!! Did you know that? Trump sucks? If you are a persuadable voter*, this ad with persuade you.

Our congressional delegation BLOWS.

The $350 million emergency federal program to help small businesses reeling from the nationwide COVID-19 shutdown has been spent, and Delaware’s share was the smallest of the 50 states. Delaware, with a population of 974,000, had a total of 1,974 approved SBA paycheck protection program loans through Monday, according to the SBA data, and the aggregate value was also the lowest of all 50 states. In contrast, Hawaii, with a population of just 1,400,000 received 8,426 loans — four and a half times the number Delaware received.

Oh well. At least Coons still gets invited to all the best cocktail parties.

Biden was quick to show that he was not going to repeat the mistakes of the abjectly horrible Hillary Clinton campaign.

And to your supporters I make the same commitment: I see you, I hear you, and I understand the urgency of what it is we have to get done in this country. I hope you will join us. You are more than welcome. You’re needed. Together we will defeat Donald Trump. And when we do that, we’ll not only do the hard work of rebuilding this nation — we’ll transform it.

Trump said "we have tests" but health experts said "we don't have tests." Trump said, "We inherited obsolete broken tests from Obama admin. Now we have good tests." Experts said, "That is not accurate."

Trump said "X" but experts said "Y". American journalism puts lies on equal footing with the truth. American journalists have no stomach for calling lies what they are. That's bad news for America.
