I don’t consider myself a Republican because I feel no obligation to always vote GOP even though I’ve voted mainly Republican over the years (but not Trump in 2016). Otherwise, I sort of fit into this group you describe (potentially anyway as whereas I don’t foresee voting for Trump, I want to make sure I’m ok with Biden (example: Ukraine/Hunter) before committing to him 100%). I knew I’d never have even considered Bernie.

Absolutely, vote for the man you think is best for YOU and your family, who makes your life better, who makes the country better, who makes you the most money. It’s all about your personal values. If that’s a Dem then that’s ok with me. I don’t hate people because who they vote for but most people think Trump supporters are evil and we are not. I respect everyone ( even @Rosie) even though she gives me a hard time!

They can’t be true Republicans then. That’s like UGA pulling for Fla.

lifetime republicans - my comment is anecdotal but I guarantee you there are others. Just makes me wonder how many.

Anyway, this has been an historic 72 hour turnaround the likes of which we may not see again in our lifetimes.

similarities to Bill Clinton the comeback kid. But Biden just did it on steroids.

I do find it odd that the party that claims diversity is down to two white men who will be 77 and 79 years old on Election Day.

I think the odds are better than 50% that one or both of them picks up the virus before the convention.

Another story behind yesterday is what happened in California in some of the congressional races; the 2018 blue wave got flushed. With no real reason to vote in the Republican presidential primary the R's still turned out in force to support both Trump and their local candidates, bodes well for November, at this point anyway; still a long way to go.

If you thought those Trump Clinton debates were fun entertainment, these Trump Biden debates will be something. Joe can’t even make full sentences even when he’s not being challenged. Yikes.

Yeah and Trump is so much better.....

“I never understood wind. You know, I know windmills very much. But they’re manufactured tremendous — if you’re into this — tremendous fumes. Gases are spewing into the atmosphere. You know we have a world, right? So the world is tiny compared to the universe. So tremendous, tremendous amount of fumes and everything. You talk about the carbon footprint — fumes are spewing into the air. Right? Spewing. Whether it’s in China, Germany, it’s going into the air. It’s our air, their air, everything — right?”
 
Got to make it easier to vote. Most counties around here only 30% participated. Surely if its safe and secure to do taxes online you could vote online too.

Biden is going to be in a tough position. He has to defend his 8 year support of Obama's policies which were pretty much a failure compared to the last 4 years under Trump. Im sure he will get most of the black and emotional women vote but independents will break for Trump. Trumps base pretty much showed yesterday that November will turn out no matter what BS the DNC comes up with.....

Not to mention Biden will constantly be bombarded by Hunter / Burisma questions and potentially other allegations of wrongdoing...I don't see how this can end well leading up to the election if he is, in fact, the nominee

Exactly. I mean there is early voting for weeks before, absentee ballots, etc. and you don’t even have to show an ID for some strange reason. The problem is apathetic voters, uninterested in exercising their right.

That's right.

What really bugs me too is this.... when I went to vote, they ask me my name, address and those in line right behind me and beside me are hearing all of it. I wanted so bad to say, if y'all just checked ID's I wouldn't have to announce my personal info in front of everyone but didn't want to start a riot Lol
