They have nothing to lose. They are making a big deal out of the push to restart the economy by Trump, hoping upon hope that it backfires and causes a resurgence of covid-19 cases. If that happens to a significant degree, Trump is toast in November. They will go on the attack reminding everyone that they said the economy should not be restarted until the entire nation was tested and covid-19 was gone. I am sure that even many Dems privately recognize that relaxing some of the "stay at home" recommendations in order to get the economy going again is as important (if not more so long term) than the containment of the virus. It's a balancing act. However, Trump's focus on the economy presents them with the perfect political strategy for his defeat in November. I was also thinking about Biden and his running mate selection. He has already committed to picking a woman. If he and the Dems were smart they should pick Tulsi Gabbard. Of all the potential Democrats, she would receive the most support of Independents and even some Republicans. If he chooses any of the others (Warren, Harris, Klobuchar, etc.) the political division of the nation and voters doesn't change at all. Republicans are going to support Trump and Dems are going to support Biden. Tulsi Gabbard as his running mate could swing the election in his favor. I think Trump is hurting his chances of reelection with every nightly briefing he holds. He's continuously making an ass of himself. Last night my wife even got tired of it after the first twenty minutes. I hope Biden picks Tulsi, because I think the more Trump talks the more he helps Biden. And if Biden gets elected, I can see Tulsi becoming president not too long after. Worrisome.I agree. Trump's daily Task Force press conferences have turned intopolitical rallies. He is only hurting himself.Maybe he really doesn't care if he's re-elected. Wouldn't surprise me.If that's the case, I wish he'd step down now. I'm thinking we'd have a betterchance with Pence. --Freedom Isn't Free!


I heard an interview with Don Jr. Yesterday. He is very well
spoken and knowlegable. He should rein in dad before it's too
late, if it isn't already.
Tulsi might be OK. At least she seems honest and has a brain.
