Politics The 2020 US Presidential Election

I have a question.... may be a dumb question but its something i thought about the other day


Trump has covid, lets just say that he dies (god forbid), i dont want anyone to die. with tha being said that would make Pence the president.
election day is next month. Does that mean that Pence is automatically the Republican nomination for the president?
is so, then ok
if not what the fuck happens?

just something that i thought about the other day.

 

I would think the process would be more defined. If Pense does become President, will Pelosi become VP at that point, or does Pense pick someone that will become the new 2nd in line?

This is what happened when a candidate died in Nevada right before the election, but I would think the President would be different. However, I think the timeline needs to be kept to.

Dennis Hof Wins Election For Nevada State Assembly Seat Weeks After Death

 

from what i can understand..

after JKF died Lyndon Johnson became president due to he was VP, but i can not find anywhere who Johnsons VP was for the remainder of that term. I know that he was elected in 1964 and his VP was Hubert Humphrey

 

That makes since. i dont want trump to die, dont want anyone to die but for some reason that sceneraio crossed my mind the other day and had no clue

 

I heard a report that some west wing insiders have leaking to the Christian right Conman's insulting comments regarding the evangelicals. The Christian right has to know Conman has no religious morals; their relationship is purely political.

Ratings for the two separate town hall meetings are interesting, more people were interested in what Biden had to say:
Biden 13.9M, Conman Trump 13.1M.

I'm guessing that bothers shortsighted Conman more than the numbers from the polls.

------------

Conman's campaign rallies all look the same, he speaks to only his supporters, makes no efforts to win new converts. He clearly feeds on the admiration, but repeadly preaching to basically the choir doesn't accomplish much.

 

Georgia sounded like a class act. Let's not disappoint her.

 

It looks like this ad is hard to find. A conservative complainer reposted it though.

Edit: Oops, already noted. And yes, The Blind Pig is a good commercial.

Conman Trump's 2016 campaign was a total mess than didn't turn into a train wreck.

I have to agree, few people care about Hunter Biden. The good thing is Conman beating the questionable Hunter "news" to death and beyond shows what a compulsive asshole Conman is.

Mentioning Conman's obsessions, it's amazing that the border wall has been mostly forgotten.

 

Conman Trump was much more controlled than he was in the first debate. But that was offset by several things.

1. When the bar is that low, getting over it isn't particularly impressive.
2. More Hunter Biden. Yawn.
3. More CYA in response to COVID-19.
4. More broad generalizations instead of specific details.
5. More numbers that are blatantly wrong, or at the very least favorably misinterpreted.
6. The absolutely ridiculous comparison to Abraham Lincoln. Is he seriously that self delusional? narcistic?


Biden was aggressive on some issues, but he could've called Trump out on several issues.

1. The border wall, how many payments has Mexico made?
2. The White House super spreader, and Trump's overall COVID-19 denial (this was mentioned, but not really stressed).
3. Trumps seven (I think) bankruptcies, and numerous lawsuits.


Trump managed not to be an asshole, but didn't do anything impressive.

Biden basically held his ground.

 

I think the threat of being muted actually set The Impeached 45 back a bit.
He also must have actually listened to someone (maybe his daughter) that he lost some serious ground across the country by the way he acted in the last debate and needed to act more PRESIDENTIAL.
I don't think he really accomplished that but it was fun to watch him try.
Biden did the one thing that set him apart which was show some empathy and support for what everybody is going through right now.
That is something The Impeached 45 is just not capable of.
The moderator also seemed to have watched the last two debates and learned a thing or two.

 

It is the 3% hidden Trump vote in the rural and poor white areas that I would worry about the polls missing. 3% and Trump would have to cheat to get WI, MI, PA, FL, and AZ Republican legislatures to select Trump electors. At 6% he wouldn't need to do anything. It is still a lot closer than I thought it would be. Although we will see what the vote outcome will be when all the votes get counted. I just don't see any signs of people who supported him in 2016 switching in the real world yet.
