      That would require him to understand the plan. He doesn’t care about the plan, he just wants to win and will promise whatever to get it.

      This plan is being drafted by those who figure they will be in the room with President Trump after the election.

          Who KNOW they’ll be in the room.

          Not going to argue that

          He knows what it is.

          Maybe in the vaguest sense. He doesn’t know the details because he doesn’t care and he didn’t write the thing. I’m not defending Trump; I just think he doesn’t care what he promises as long as he is President.

      This is what absolutely any competent debater would have asked him, in front of a national audience. Sadly, the moment has passed. Still think he’s our guy!?

          I genuinely appreciate the honesty. Like many, I will vote for a baggy full of bees to stop Trump, so I guess I will be voting for Biden…

          A reminder for others who say this is “not the right time to change candidates/switch horses/whatever”: this is exactly the time for the option to at least be explored. Until Ohio has Biden on the ballot, it can be changed, so this is quite literally the only time this can be corrected. I would 1000x more rather be alarmist and wrong than to stick with Biden and suffer Trump and the possible end of our democracy. But those are the stakes…

    What made him decide he needed to placate the centrists? Internal polling not doing so great? Trying to backtrack that total abortion ban? Watch out the qnuts might decide to go with Kennedy.

      The terroristic threats in this one are a good way to get a visit from a three letter agency.
