Former first lady Michelle Obama tore into President Donald Trumps handling of the coronavirus crisis in a live video Tuesday, calling Trumps pandemic leadership willful mismanagement and negligence.
We simply cannot trust this president to tell us the truth about anything, Obama said in her Closing Argument, a nearly 25-minute appeal to Americans to vote for Democratic nominee Joe Biden over Trump in next months presidential election.
The worst part is it didnt have to be like this, Obama said of the more than 210,000 coronavirus-linked deaths in the United States. So many other countries arent experiencing this level of extended suffering and uncertainty.
She continued:
These countries were hit by the same virus as we were. They had the same kind of resources to contain it as we did. But what they didnt have to contend with was this president ...
A man who knew how deadly this virus is but who lied to us and told us it would just disappear. Who, in the greatest crisis of our lifetimes, doubled down on division and resentment, railed against measures that could have mitigated the damage and continues to hold massive events without requiring masks or social distancing, knowingly exposing his own supporters to a dangerous virus.

Keep your expectations right for the VP debate
Lots of folks ( me included in a brain dead post that got pulled by the moderators on DU) assume that Sen. Harris will chew up Pence to bits.
Wrong. As I think about it, we actually have the inverse of the Joe's problem in terms of expectations. Here are some things to consider.
1) The format is different. She is a brilliant prosecutor who can lay bare the facts. But this is not a cross examination. It's a debate where the balance of power is somewhat different.
2) Pence can go after Kamala. Kamala plays Offense - and will need to play defense.
3) Pence is disciplined and and has been preparing really hard. Trump had some great attack lines prepped but was too chaotic to use them .. Pence will not make that mistake. Expect some hard blows to land ( based on bullshit lies if needed)
4) Pence was a radio host. He can talk and can deliver lines.
_________________________
Given these and the expectations - Media will be crowing about how Pence 'won'
But no one cares about the VP debates other than us political junkies... All Sen. Harris needs to do is stay positive and deliver her message and not worry about prosecuting Trump. Make a safe play.
We got this !!
Biden campaign should use the following clips in ads non stop now that Trump 'beat' Covid
1) Joy Ride endangering Secret Service
2) Him Taking the mask off despite being a Virus shedder
A grim voice over should brand him reckless and judgmentally impaired.

Let's consider a counter factual to assess the state of the race
I have people saying that Trump is losing because of Covid 19. Now the only way to know the effect of COVID for sure is if we have the counterfactual where the state of the race might be had COVID not occured.
Trump still has other issues, his character, corruptions etc which aren't the focus now - because COVID is. But if COVID weren't there -this election would still be a referendum on Trump and he'd still be second best in this race. The race might have been a little closer - but that is about it.
Agree?
Dumbass Freepers are scratching their stupid heads wondering
HOW THE HECK DID SO MANY CONSERVATIVES GET INFECTED BY COVID !
It is the biggest mystery in the world.
Paging Sherlock Holmes
LOOKEE LOOKEE . I AM PULLING A RABBIT OUTTA MY ASS. VOTE!
Trump has completely lost itCheatos hits 18 on Fivethirtyeight.
It's been yoyoing .. but trend is on track to hit Donald Trump's favorite Tax amount.
Biden should insist that prior to the next debate ..anyone entering the debate venue
Be tested by a neutral third party.
The fact of the matter is ...even a person on path to recovery can be shedding a lot of viruses
