https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewsolender/2020/04/29/polls-show-biden-ahead-in-two-key-red-states/#22b9a3b6167dNew polls show former Vice President Joe Biden edging out President Donald Trump in Texas and North Carolina, two red states which Democrats have long hoped to flip to the blue column.
A "yo yo" economy even by state level still makes no sense and California and NY not fully open is going to do what?
Red Don's numbers economically are still going to be horrible, a 12% UE rate for more than a couple of months would STANK.
I don't Trust "Benedict" Donald J Trump and only half way Trust the doctors as a whole, I'm thinking he's trying to burn it down ... just to see it burn.
your take?

Either he wins the election (win) or he loses but people die on President Bidens watch and the short-term attention span American public blames Joe not Trump.
Im not sure trump thinks that far ahead (lets be honest, hes not bright) but I imagine someones done that calculus. Because of course for the gop, bodies piling up is nothing more than a political calculation.
