Those vets are right, Trump was a draft dodger, no doubt. The problem for the Republican party is, the GOP lets their members decide who the candidate will be and they selected Trump. The Democratic party picks the candidate for the members, that's why Bernie was screwed over twice. If the Dems had not sabotaged Tulsi gabbard, I'll be lining up behind her. To vote.

I seem to recall what a Swedish journalist once said It's common here in the State, that the President is chosen as their candidate I think he said this when Obama was President and the election was not far away. Secondly isn't it so, that the opposition have to find a candidate and they do so by holding type of election in different States-if not all of them until they have found one ? Markus |

Interesting.
Have just read this in a Danish article (Translated) Viral photo claims to show Trump's sabotage, but the truth is another A picture of Wisconsin-deposited mailboxes went viral and was used as evidence of Trump's 'sabotage' of the election campaign. But the picture is fake news. In recent days, a picture of deposited mailboxes in the US state of Wisconsin has gone viral. According to the sender, the context was clear: The mailboxes will be removed in Wisconsin - which is an important swing state in the autumn presidential election - because President Donald Trump and his new postmaster are in the process of sabotaging the possibility of postal voting in a coordinated attempt to undermine American democracy . There is only one problem with using the image in this context: it is so-called fake news. Fact checkers from the American Politifact unequivocally state that the image from Wisconsin cannot be related to the debate about an undermining of the postal votes. According to the postal service, this is a routine relocation and renewal of the mailboxes, and the mailboxes in question have been deposited with a permanent subcontractor in Wisconsin because they need to be renovated. Facebook has now removed a similar post from the same sender as part of social media's fight against misinformation. Twitter, on the other hand, still lets the user spread misinformation. At the time of writing, the above tweet has been shared more than 82,000 times. (This is what I find interesting-while they remove things from Trump, if they see it as fake news or similar. They let fake news stay if it goes against Trump) The image has also been used by many media and commentators both in the United States and internationally in connection with the discussion about President Trump and the United States Post Office. Including Danish TV 2, which has now added a correction to the article where the picture is included. The case shows how important it is that the media, commentators and everyone else show the necessary source criticism. Another problem in this context is that the sender was also not declared clearly and distinctly. Thomas Kennedy is a left-wing activist who has previously worked for Bernie Sanders, making him a party source. It is also important to keep in mind that it is still an unsubstantiated claim that the mailboxes should generally be removed in a systematic attempt by Trump to sabotage the election. An allegation made against the President of the United States by his political opponents. The examples highlighted in this context include the states of Oregon and New York. In other words, states that Republicans have not won since 1984 and where Trump received less than 40 percent of the vote in 2016. Therefore, one should first ask oneself: Does it sound realistic to start a large-scale sabotage of the electoral process in arch-democratic states that Trump has no realistic chance of winning? The postal service itself has been out and explain that these are routine procedures where non-frequently used mailboxes are removed or moved, just as there are ongoing renovations of mailboxes across the country. Incidentally, this was (of course) also the case under Trump's predecessor Barack Obama, and the postal service's financial problems, rigid rules and inability to adapt its operations to the digital transformation are thus a story that goes back many years. The images of the removed mailboxes therefore serve as an important learning on the way into the crucial phase of the US election campaign, for it is neither the first nor the last time that anyone will try to influence the election campaign with false information.

The Dems need to keep AOC under volume control. She could really ruin Biden's chances if sounding too left sand so makign the party look even leftier, and ultimately too left for too many voters. Even Sanders understood this and bit into cotton wool balls before speaking at the convention. I am not so convinced that AOC did understand this.
I am certainly not concerned about lefty chances in US elections. I only worry about Trump getting another term. So please, Democrats: do not spoil it. Once you have won and Trump is gone, I am looking forward to give you hell as well!

Biden is just the Trojan horse, inside it's all AOC. The democratic party has moved lock, stock, and barrel way to the left. They hate America, it just took electing Trump for them to let us see it. Somehow they think that the America they hate can "do" communism better than those who have tried it before.
