More racist shenanigans, this time more transparent.

@Kaiolino:

His approval on 538 is going up as well.

Largely thanks to Rasmussen and RMG, the latter of which is apparently the pollster of choice for One America News Network, which is the news channel for those people tired of those Commie Pinkos at Fox News.

Primaries are pretty much going as expected with Biden winning by massive margins in Florida and Illinois.

@Monkey:

Well gosh it really sucks then that Trump can rely on extremely predictable plateauing circumstances like a quickly escalating pandemic, and extremely volatile stock market isn't it.

(btw, even Carter got an approval bump at the start of the Iron hostage crisis, famously cruising him to mega victory against Reagan)

No seriously, look at this.

Carter would have won if he had not done anything to piss Iran off.

I'm not all that familiar with the Iran Hostage Crisis but I don't think it was Carter's fault Iranians got tired of Pahlavi's shit.

The Dow is back to where it was before Trump even took office.

They wanted Pahlavi to stand trial but Carter decided to bring him in for cancer treatment. Carter should've just give them Pahlavi to prevent this crisis.

There you go, with the crisis going around, Trump finally took this seriously to get the stock market back up, however calling the Coronavirus "China Virus" is a bad bad move.

Holy shit, we're about to hit 1000 pages.

Kaba Kaba Fruit

Holy shit! We just did hit 1000 pages! :blink:

onemoment

Woah, he's pretty sweet being on the 1000th page.

Weird coincidence that it's on the same day that the stock market goes back to pre-Trump lows. Are we really going forward?

Kaba Kaba Fruit

We made it to 1000 pages.

….......do we win anything?

DoctorPhil

We already won it four years ago; depression.

Nobodyman

1,000 pages and it only took three years plus change. That's…something.

I'm just here for the thousandth page, nobody talk to me.

Mostly a lurker, not active. Putting in my mark here.

Thousand pages, woo!

pariston_hill
