U.S Presidential Election

I woulda said that about Trump. If you ask me, there's no real difference between the two.
I saw a video of the orange one today when he was asked what he had to say to parents and teachers who were anxious about schools opening after the summer break.
His answer was the schools should be opened and the only people against it were democratic governors who wanted to do things that were bad for the country so he would lose the election.
Nothing about the students, nothing about the teachers just all about him.
He is the definition of a narcissist

Absolutely and I feel sorry for the people of the US. They have a president that will now literally throw them under the bus in order to save his own skin and get re-election. None of this is about what is right for the country / world, only what fits into Trumps re-election campaign.
Haha, I reckon I have heard that before in relation to one of the 2 mentioned.
Poll analysis at the time from Nate Silver gave Trump a 15% chance of winning. People interpreted this as meaning zero chance, but that was wrong.. 15% occurs 15% of the time 
Kanye really is zero but I guess he's a chance to steal some of the Black vote from Biden.

Some things that struck me is how readily politicians and media talk so freely about cases and death numbers.
1000 cases every day.... so 1000 people.
Extremely dehumanising, literally, and so easy to glibly say numbers without any thought of the human impact.
The US media is beholden to the left - right politocal game. Watch trump accuse a fox presenter of being a democrat, about the worst insult he could give.
Its so partisan.
Trump is a lying sack o potatoes.
The thing is Trump is behaving no differently now to when he was elected. Flat-out lying, denying the science, saying how great he is, playing to his base and dividing the country rather than trying to unify it. He hasn't dropped the ball on COVID19 - this is the way he's always been.
Not only when elected, but before he was elected too. It will be an interesting study at some point to understand what it was that allowed him to literally brainwash so many millions around the world.
The leader the world needed now, apparently.
Kanye really has no chance, still trying to get on the ballot paper in a lot of states from what I can gather (that's not a given over there, you nominate but still may not appear on the ballot paper, or machine or whatever, in every state - insane system).

If you can put up with 8 minutes of his head... this is worth a watch. As scary as it is funny!
True but it doesn't seem to be to the same extent as trump. He is literally content to see his citizens die in order to protect his chance at re-election. He could reduce the level of deaths but this doesn't fit with his re-election campaign.
