Can someone here please help ease my panic about the debt ceiling?

I cannot believe that we don't already have a plan to take care of this arcane pain in the rear. Does anyone seriously not think the Republicans will gleefully let the economy tank just to get back in power, especially when our parasitic media will give them a complete pass on it? And we have just a little over two weeks left! Is there anything we can do to resolve this that does not rely on trusting a single person in that awful so-called elephant party?

IMO 1 great way to motivate the Democratic party for the 2022 midterms that I didn't seen in ads yet

If we keep the house and senate, especially by wide margins, Spanky won't run again. No matter what Turtle and the second worst McCarthy says, Republican fortunes in the 2022 midterms are tied to the orange menace.

Assuming no Surprise Events, Our Final Big Hurdle is Tomorrow with the First Q3 GDP Estimates

Last I checked, growth is predicted to be around 31% relative to the last quarter as far as I understand. Not only will Spanky and crew crow about a "big comeback" but they'll also try to use this as justification for further opening up the country. If Joe, Kamala, and their group can effectively counteract this message, then there's a good chance that they're home free (barring, as I said before, any surprise events). Here's to hoping.

One debate scenario I hope Joe and his team are prepared for

I would not put it past Spanky and his campaign to invite people like someone who was supposedly locked up because of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act and put them in Joe's line of vision during the debate. I hope Joe's debate prep includes practicing in front of an audience that may make him feel uncomfortable in his line of sight.

I hope all of the campaigning (ads, speeches, etc.) against Spanky encompasses this theme ......

Yes, Spanky is a obnoxious toxic yutz, but worst of all and most importantly, he's an arsonist who lets the entire nation burn (each negative ad can show a metaphorical and/or literal example of this like COVID) and tries to play hero by running in with a fire hose after the fire's already burned through. These "fires" have killed thousands in Puerto Rico from Hurricane Maria and almost 150,000 just this year so far from the Coronavirus. Every single "accomplishment" he can even try to brag about is either doing this or stealing credit for what is largely other people's hard work (the bipartisan First Step Act, Khalilzaid's Afghanistan negotiations, or the continuing lowering unemployment that started and mostly occurred under Obama until the Coronavirus). I think that emphasizing this in many different ads in many different targeted ways that do not feel false or redundant is our best bet.

Please tell me there are Bob Kroll/Spanky ads airing or on the way.

The murderous Minneapolis shitheads in blue were trained and led by Trump-supporting asshole Bob Kroll, head of the Minneapolis Police Union. HE'S the main person responsible for the police-civilian divide and pain in Minneapolis, and the asshole also praised Spanky for his "support" for the blue over Obama's "destructive" policies at a trump rally (there's video of this). The shithead (Kroll) last spoke about George Floyd's tragic murder just a few days ago telling people not to "jump to conclusions." as expected. He and Spanky are on the same page, and there must be ads made by either the Biden campaign or the Lincoln Project (sadly the latter may be "law and order" adjacent outside of their Spanky hatred) to show and hammer this over and over.

Be Prepared for Rampant "Law and Order" Dogwhistling

Spanky's latest psychotic tweets (dumbass even quoted a racist sack of shit from the 1968 protest era) just gave away the whole game. It wouldn't surprise me if the trump-supporting asshole leading the MPD federation told his cops to stand down to make themselves look like hapless victims and those protesting them to all be a bunch of maniacs.

I am 99 percent sure that Spanky's refusal to take questions today is about the Bank of China story

For those who haven't heard about it yet: https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/24/trump-biden-china-debt-205475

The inevitably incriminating answers by the moron to a question about this would make for both huge legal and financial headaches for his grifting crew and ad catnip for Biden and his team. Biden's team should honestly already be making and targeting ads for this (maybe they are, but I haven't seen any yet). Reading about how the jackass is considering paring down briefings and appearing for shorter periods when he does visit (probably not taking questions again) further bolsters my belief in this.

Does this feel like Korea 2.0 to anyone else?

Spanky and "enemy" escalate to the brink of war and give us all either heart attacks or war wood. Instead, Mr. Cautious steps back and announces some sort of meeting to make "the best deal ever" to make him seem like such a statesman and give him a poll boost. Of course this time there was actually a deal before that Spanky tore up because President Obama was leader then. I'll be OK with everybody being fooled now if it keeps us away from war, but I really hope that this doesn't cause Spanky's reelection.
