The only advantage Obama has over Trump is better self-control. But let's be clear: it's the free market that creates things like ventilators.

So Biden will be one of the oldest Presidents ever to enter the White House.

Dems LOVE the idea of Biden prospectively picking Michelle Obama as VP, and Biden has to pay lip service to the idea.

You could see Trump's intent to freeze immigration with his stalking horse travel ban in late January. There is no moral or constitutional argument in support of this; it might be one thing if Trump required COVID-19 testing of immigrants, but delaying people waiting in line?— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) April 21, 2020
Impeach the son of a bitch again. POTUS has no such constitutional authority. Trump is an economic illiterate on labor statistics of immigration, which in general is win-win.
