We need to stop this undertow. Was talking to a trump supporter who said Biden was not up to the job because he is a weak man.
DOG WHISTLE: Biden weak because he took orders from President Obama, A BLACK MAN
That was my takeaway. Biden needs to go after this shit before too many build on this. Not going to go into the exact conversation but I defended Biden, but to no avail. I will keep talking to any craZY repub to try and put some logic , reality and facts before them.

Heaven knows any man with confidence in his own manliness must see this cheap thug as a wretched, whining, blustering, hollowed husk of pretense, and no man at all.

(3,479 posts)Anyone with half a brain can see that Biden's cognitive and intellectual abilities are far superior to Trump's. If the people you're conversing with can't see that, you can safely dismiss them as idiots.
Put it another way: Biden vs the clown who thinks windmills cause cancer. Who you got? .

(3,479 posts)I have broken more Elton John records, he seems to have a lot of records. And I, by the way, I dont have a musical instrument. I dont have a guitar or an organ. No organ. Elton has an organ. And lots of other people helping. No weve broken a lot of records. Weve broken virtually every record. Because you know, look, I only need this space. They need much more room. For basketball, for hockey and all of the sports, they need a lot of room. We dont need it. We have people in that space. So we break all of these records. Really we do it without like, the musical instruments. This is the only musical: the mouth. And hopefully the brain attached to the mouth. Right? The brain, more important than the mouth, is the brain. The brain is much more important.

(45,806 posts)Biden! His mind is gone, doesn't know what State he's campaigning! I didn't even bother to argue with her. If she can't understand when a candidate goes from place to place, sometimes 2,3 or more States in one dy, its very easy to not realize which one you're currently in. It wouldn't matter, she'll always believe what she wants to believe.

(9,600 posts)Biden cannot remain still and passive and allow Trump and his campaign to paint their perception of Biden and present that perception to the American voter. Reality will not matter. Perception and marketing is everything when you run as a candidate against Trump.

(9,600 posts)Trump attacks repeatedly trying out different messaging until a disparaging label sticks. Then Trump and his media machine hammers the disparaging label home. Repeat over and over and over again. Meanwhile Mr. Nice Guy opponent of Trump stays quite. Never labels Trump outloud and repeatedly. Trump's perception of his opponent becomes the new reality. The Opponents generated perception of Trump comes too late and is too weak. Trump wins the perception battle.
Reality does not matter!
