Re: Right, but since Joe (and Donald) probably both wear adult diapers...

As for Trump, I still point to the Hillary Campaign's very successful efforts to boost Trump in the 2016 primaries to make sure they didn't have to face an actual challenger. They were so sure they would wipe the floor with him that they manipulated the press into helping Trump become the Republican nominee. And then he beat her.
And then we got what they deserved.
A practice the DNC has continued to use in Congressional elections, supporting the Trump backed candidate in the primaries.
Both political parties suck. Politics in America is a train wreck, where the choice for the leader of our nation is between a doddering incompetent and a narcissistic buffoon.
It’s sad to realize we would all have eventually been grateful if the debate site was crushed by a meteorite.
