It was a crap week in virus news.  By and large, it doesn't look very much like a thing that has an end in sight.  The rally was a desperate gamble, and one that he lost bigly.

They kept thousands away from the rally.

He came out roarin', but the crowd was more low energy.

No riots outside, but one poor lady arrested for sitting around in an "I can't breathe" T shirt.

On and on and on about that damned ramp and drinking water at the West Point commencement.

Saving our heritage from the people who tear down statues.

Big new addition to his campaign platform--one year in prison for anyone who burns a flag.

"The left" controls Biden, and if he wins it is the end of our freedom. Iran and China cheering Biden.

The last paragraph pretty much says it all.

"If journalists were consistently calling out Biden’s Iraq War lies—not to mention reminding viewers and readers that the war cost hundreds of thousands of human lives, aside from a financial cost in the trillions of dollars—their worn-out tropes about Biden’s foreign policy “steadiness” would be incredibly difficult to sustain.

I realize hiding in the basement is working now but sooner or later he will have to get on the stage himself and answer for what looks like a lot of major blunders.

They know Biden is a ticking bomb and will do everything to defuse it. Hopefully Biden talks them into allowing open debates, because he thinks he's good at them.

On the other hand, Trump is a perpetually exploding time bomb that still think his ideas for winning this election are better than the ones his advisors are giving him.  Ticking time bombs aren't great, but I'll still take the possibility of diffusion over certain detonation on a frequent and assured basis.
