Yes, if a president dies in office, the VP automatically takes his place. Next in line is speaker of the House. When it's so close to an election, it would surely create an issue, as many Americans have already used early voting and Pence's name wasn't on the ballot for president. Some of them might want to change their vote in that situation. Would everyone have to vote again, or, by voting early are you also committing to vote for the VP as president in the event of death before election day?Quote:

No chance do I want him to have to step down because of this (or worse). Then he becomes a martyr to his followers.
So either Trumps doctor can't count in multiples of 12 or he is lying about how long he has know he is positive for.
I'm hating that myself for feeling disappointed every time I read that "he's doing well".
I don't mean that I'm actively wishing death upon him, but I don't want him emerging from this quickly then announcing that he's some sort of superman.
That would be jucily ironic.Quote:

It wouldn't surprise me if they knew about it and have tried to cover it up in the hope he would be able to get through it unscathed. They probably only went public as he started to get serious issues.
Suggestion is that he's had this since before the debate, as has M******. She entered the debate wearing a mask while sitting next to the ***** family, but took her mask off when she spoke to Biden.Quote:

So she deliberately tried to pass it on to Biden?Quote:

It’s of little surprise then that it appears they kept his positive test under wraps until they had no option, due to his deteriorating health, to announce it.
They clearly hoped to just ignore it and carry in regardless, as his trips to fund raiser etc show.
I know that none of this makes any difference to his base vote but even they must be getting confused about how the hoax appears to be actually real after all.
Trumps latest tweeted video seems to show him in good health.
He’s in good spirits but he doesn’t look well, but it’s a horrible virus so that’s to be expected. Next few days are crucial, we saw BJ make similar videos in the early days of his illness and he ended upQuote:

It's not a mainstream viewpoint among the pro choice netweorks but the zealots seem to have latched on to it. Trump is just an idiot looking to play up to the so called 'Christian' right.
Donald Trump has posted a new video from the White House, which begins with him addressing seniors and explaining that he is a senior. “I know you don’t know that, nobody knows that,” Trump said.
The good news this morning is that Trump hasn't been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize so cannot politicise that during the campaign (although there's still every possibility he'll claim it was either a Dems fix or that he came a close second)
He’s reaching out to them in desperation because he knows that the over 65s are his core, and they are turning away from him because of Covid. Particularly in a few key swing states that have had high death rates.Quote:

I think he did have it and I don’t think his recovery is that remarkable. Apart from having amazing health care, most people even his age do recover from it now. That’s not me playing down the virus, just that it doesn’t kill everyone.Quote:

Oh, and then go broke.
Likewise, definitely think he had it. Not convinced he's fully over it though and he's most likely just fronting up for cameras and a wreck behind closed doors.Quote:

Not seeing much about that now.
There's nothing to fear from this virus. The moment you become symptomatic, simply jump in you helicopter and go straight to the best hospital in your area. Don't forget to ask for the 6 room suite with 24hr medical team to pamper your every need and give you the latest medication and treatment available. After you've returned home please be sure to stay in your fully staffed inhouse medical facility and send the bill to the government. That's how easy it is.Quote:

This guy does some cracking tunes.
Now he's claiming he's tested negative.
So, he either beat the virus completely and his body removed all traces of it within ten days... or he never had it in the first place.
I don't know how anyone can take him seriously, he's just a liar, he can't help himself - virtually everything he says is a lie.Quote:

I see Trump's latest Supreme Court nominee declined to answer whether she thinks climate change is happening as it's too contentious. :rolleyes:
I'd only seen bits and pieces of trump's tweets when retweeted by one of the few people I follow or posted on here but I decided to actively follow him the other day... Wow. I've had to think it a few times - perhaps every time I see or hear from him - but I just can't believe he's president of the US.

I'd love to see a fact check from last night. Almost everything he said in the segment on climate change was total bollocks. Wind energy is too expensive, and has more emissions than natural gas...from the manufacture of the turbines...
Which is completely wrong, as wind energy has the lowest carbon emissions through its entire life cycle, and is one of the least expensive forms of renewables.
Don't think it addresses the point on wind specifically, but quite a lot of fact checking at this link.Quote:
