Compared to who? Trump is a pathological liar of epic proportions. He even gaslights during a health emergency. Nobody is giving him the benefit of the doubt this time around.

I do think the biggest obstacle to progressive government is the power of lobbyists in Washington. If Biden could enact legislation to fund elections that would be quite profound.

Biden will cream Trump in a debate. That's why Trump will refuse to debate.

Trump fears Biden. He got impeached for trying to frame him. You think he can walk all over Joe only because of your biases, not because that's how it actually is or would be.

Trump is practically a vegetable at this point. His swagger and ignorant boasts and put-downs no longer have any juice and will have zero sway over swing voters.

Biden lied through his teeth as usual. If he is the nominee it'll be a battle of who's a better liar. an obese wannabe despot or a senile, segregating, coattail rider.

"Look, here's the deal ..." Joe lied his ass off all night, Bernie called him on it, and the mainstream media will let it all go. If Bernie told one lie (he didn't), it would've made headlines.

Did Bernie do enough to move the needle? I'm not sure. Bernie is just too nice. If I had been standing at the podium instead Bernie, I would've shredded Biden. Bernie chose not to.

The Arizona Vote Director just walks away from the mic in the middle of a presser trying to explain why they’re closing all of these voter polling locations under the pretext that - get this - there aren’t enough sanitation supplies. That doesn’t even make sense putting the lie aside.

The fact is...our election process is a complete sham. So are the debates. It's all a dog and pony show...backed by fake news.

A history of Joe’s support and close relationship with the credit card industry and support for the bankruptcy bill. It’s all over the Internet if you have a problem with Pro Publica, which you shouldn’t.

Biden is corrupt trash. He is a part of the established corruption that plagues our govt. He's proven to be a flip flopping liar and an azzhole.

Bernie is rambling old man with poor communication skills. He just repeats the same things over and over. The same things He's been saying for decades. He blew it when he endorsed Shillary while the country knew they rigged the primaries against him. He lost a ton of support because of that.

Of the 2...Bernie is this only one who cares about the citizens of this country. Too bad he's 900 years old and refuses to really fight the good fight. He'll bow down to the DNC like last time and everything he's campaigning for will be ignored again.

Get ready for Trump vs Biden and 4 more years of the Orangutan Republic.
