So Biden and Harris just gave their first speeches together.
Eli Stokols....
From Harris’s speech.
”Harris says it "didn't have to be this way," says the strong economy — which she notes he "inherited" — crashed because of Trump's "failure" to take the virus seriously from the start.
"Like everything else he inherited he ran it straight into the ground."

So far a recap of trump’s briefing he is holding.
Daniel Dale....
”No real pretense that today's "news conference" is a coronavirus update so far. With a lot of dishonesty, Trump is just bashing Democrats and boasting.”

”No evidence Obama and Biden did anything to spy on the Trump campaign. No basis for the claim this is going to be a rigged election. Copy-paste, every night at 5:30.”
I think the reporters assigned to fact-check trump are going a little weary of doing it on a daily basis.

”Trump repeats that he wants to permanently eliminate the payroll tax if he’s re-elected, without explaining how Social Security would be funded if he did. Larry Kudlow, who said Sunday Trump meant the temporary referral would be permanent & “the tax is not going away,” looks on.”

”Trump introduces Dr. Scott Atlas, inviting him to speak. @kaitlancollins today: "...Atlas has been informally advising Trump for weeks. Trump first noticed Atlas on Fox News, where he asserted it doesn't matter 'how many cases' there are in the US..."
I think it matters to the 5.1M Americans who have the virus and have symptoms . I think it matters to the family and friends of the 165,000 Americans who have died from it.

”Trump earlier: So few fatalities are among people under age 24. "For this reason, it could be safer for them to live at school rather than live with their older parents or grandparents."
Does that include kids in grammar school??

”Trump said he didn't watch the Biden-Harris event, just a moment, but it was enough, and he watched her tank in the primary and then "she left angry. She left mad." (He cites no evidence for this; he keeps emphasizing the supposed anger of this Black woman.)”

”Pres says he'll fund Social Security out of the General Fund at @ustreasury if he eliminates payroll taxes. When asked where'd he get the money considering today's report of a record $2.8-trillion deficit so far this year, Trump said there'll be record economic growth.”

I really believe a lot of this is done for political reasons, if you want to know the truth." I hear that from some Trump people I have in my life, doesn’t help that our schools have said they are closed until that week. So aggravating because I know it is hogwash. And this crap about kids not getting it isn’t true and I just don’t get how people can still be so ignorant and still remember to breathe without being told to by Fox news.

”I agree with @realdonaldtrump about mail in voting, I routinely receive mail from social security for my husband who passed away 3 years this November. Why would I trust the USPS? #NoMailInVoting #VoteRedToSaveAmerica Not USPS!! Wonder who the president has been for the last three years gutting all the career employees from very department? What the what??!! Can you imagine, USPS: I'm sorry Karen, we are not delivering xxx to you because your husband passed away 3 years ago this November. Yeah, that'd fly. not.

CNN's John Berman and Kaitlan Collins discuss President Trump repeating the same exact talking points during his coronavirus briefings. I particularly like the comment that 'repeating the same points doesn't make them true' lol. That IS really bad, though- the fact that they could play the tapes and they sound basically identical, is pretty damning. when you have a president who doesn't know stuff, and rambles about off the wall shit when he makes off-the-cuff remarks, I guess the only way to keep him from rambling is to make him read written remarks? and if it's basically the same stuff, it's easier for him to read? who knows.

President Donald Trump on Thursday told Fox Business that he will continue to block aid to the U.S. Postal Service (USPS), publicly acknowledging that doing so would undermine states’ plans to expand mail-in voting for Election Day.“They need that money in order to have the Post Office work, so it can take all of these millions of ballots,” he told Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo on Thursday. “If they don’t get those two items, that means you can’t have universal mail-in voting. Because they’re not equipped.” ** www.rawstory.com/2020/08/trump-just-said-the-silent-part-out-loud/?utm_source=&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=5195so basically he just admitted to bald-faced, out and out election interference... but let me guess, no one in Congress will do anything about it. Because somehow, IOKIYAR.
