However, is Trump wrong? He was called a racist because he ordered to ban flights from China. It certainly appears to be the correct decision.

He has also ordered for the American government to stop giving money to World Health Organization because it is controlled by China.

LOL.. the United States does not have the best healthcare system in the world. On the other hand, I would claim that they have one of the worst systems in any of the developed nations. The healthcare system in the US is ultra-expensive, inefficient and biased against those with pre-existing conditions. Actually it was not surprising to see them coping with the pandemic so badly (when compared to Japan or Germany).

Watched it since it has been trending(Don't usually bother watching these briefings) and found both Trump and the CNN reporters going crazy in so many ways.

Trump's approval ratings probably took a dive after the manner in which he contained COVID though I still think he will be re-elected. USA having the best healthcare system in the world is leading the COVID disaster rankings. Unbelievable!

It was 10/10 lol

What caught me off guard was that CNN didn't care about showing just how impartial they are towards the Trump administration and how hostile they are towards Trump...I mean, they always have been, but look at these images, look at the news ticker: https://ibb.co/rF7jgH7
I think that video (did it really cost as much as to say "at taxpayers expense"? looked like 10yo made it haha) really pissed some people off in this news network and last night they went completely bananas

But rather than recommending a shutdown Dr Fauci said in February that there was no need to change your daily activities. It's worth mentioning that 2 days earlier, Trump said that this virus "was going to dissapear" 

It was a meltdown from both Trump and CNN, but i'm not surprised to see such stuff from Trump, tho...
"ENOUGH" wow! did you see her face? That's the face of someone who literally can't comprehend what the hell just happened  Oh, and let me guess, she's from CNN?

Yes,,, I do not think in the history of betting on president candidates or elections has anyone ever won with such high odds. The bookmakers know what they are doing and these guys are like giving them free money as whoever bets on them will surely lose.

I also do not know US politics but bookmakers do. They may not know among the favorites but they know who has no chance.

Did anybody watch Trumps task force briefing yesterday ? That was some fun He got quite some heat from reporters and was erupting - all caused by this New York Times article over the weekend. He then used some propaganda video to prove how he managed everything perfectly, but it was missing the whole February, where he took no actions and played golf, travelled to India etc.

I have to admit, that I find Trump very entertaining. This should probably not be the trademark or a label for a politician, especially in these dark times, but he is doing a good job with that. That whole briefing got very hostile and there was one lady from CBS, who really called him out, I liked that

When a CNN reporter asked him about how he has authority to decide on opening the country all at once again, while this is against the consitution, he just shut her up. I mean this is hilarious: https://youtu.be/HNaCSwezJHo?t=4557

This is just very weird to watch for me, being more used to boring press conferences. Odds-wise it didn't harm Trump, but I am not sure, if it will stay this way.

@wozzek23. Do not be brainwashed by mainstream media. We in the cryptospace are here for a reason hehehehe.

They can try to impeach Trump again if that was real. Also, many Democrats that said it have withdrawn their statements and do not say it anymore.

In any case, whatever their real motivation to nominate Joe Biden as the Democrats' candidate, I reckon they removed the only person on the list that wanted real change. Bernie Sanders.

I can understand people who likes Trump to support him however they want and it makes sense because this is politics and if you really believe what you are believing in, that means you are trying to help your country have the best representation you can, if you want candidate A and not candidate B, that should mean you think candidate B will not be a good president and your country will go worse and worse because of him, which makes you defend your candidate a lot harder.

However Trump being a Russian asset has been proven to an extent, not just directly but indirectly. The factual stuff that we literally have as data is Russia built a whole network to help Trump get elected, this part is literally documented, Russia literally spent millions of dollars to help him get elected. What wasn't proven however is, Trump asked for it and worked together on it, this wasn't proven.

So at worst Russia wanted Trump to win and worked for it and paid for it, at best Trump was in on it as well, not really a HUGE difference if you ask me. But I do understand Trump supporters, the other nominee is probably Biden and not like he is any better neither, thankfully as a non-american I can clearly say that both nominee's are quite bad and I would rather not vote for any of them, they are both equally bad.

Well... I can understand. The establishment plays a large role in deciding the Veep candidate. And I consider Joe Biden as someone who is very much a part of this establishment, and therefore it may not be very surprising if they go for Hillary. And if the betting sites are giving such high odds for Hillary Clinton, then there may be a valid reason for that.

Those two have very high odds - O'Rourke is 1000 (highest it can get at Betfair), Castro 900+. The problem is, no offense, it's not about who we want or like when it comes to betting, but whose odds carry value. As stated before, I lack the deeper knowledge about US politics, so I can only judge the more well known things/candidates and try to figure out some sentiments. Hillary seems to be liked by a lot of betting people for whatever reason, I guess we will know why sooner or later

^^^^ Seriously?

Hillary Clinton was rejected once and it will be monumental stupidity from the part of Joe Biden to make her the veep candidate. She carries a lot of additional baggage and at 72 years, she's not young either. I am not too excited about anyone else in the list as well. Kamala Harris may get Biden some votes in deep Blue states, but may hurt him in the battle ground states such as MI, WI and PA. I would like someone who is young, and centrist as far as ideology is concerned. I'm talking about people such as Beto O'Rourke and Julian Castro.

Biden not finishing his term is a not so unlikely scenario, but odds for Hillary to become running mate are high, with a different strong favourite in Kamala Harris in a low volume market:

Even Michelle Obama has lower odds The betting trend shows people believing more and more in Hillary being the democratic nominee though - her odds have come down more and are now around 18. But Hillary as POTUS is hard to imagine, since Biden will lose to Trump and if Hillary is democratic nominee, she will lose to Trump as well imo. Only Cuomo can beat Trump

The elections are schedule to held on November 03 this year and there is no hint of any postpone of these elections. Current coronavirus may impact the presidential campaign but since the election date is at year end and hopefully by that time everything will be back to normal.

Apart from this, since everything is being postponed, do you think that US Presidential Election 2020 will also be postponed to next year and not held this year because of COVID-19. Gathering are not allowed and therefore i don't think this is the right atmosphere for the elections.

Coronavirus is one of the worst nightmares we ever had.
But this COVID-19 is an eye-opener for many people. If those on the list will do their best to perform on this pandemic that is a plus factor for them.
I think Trump is not doing the best on this. that is the effect on this one.

@TalkStar. Trump as the Russian agent theory is fake news created by the Democrats and it remains to be unproven.

In any case, my speculation. Hillary will become the running mate of the senile Joe Biden. Biden will not finish his term and America will witness its first female president.

Atleast obama was much popular than Trump & Hillary. After Bill clinton american people got obama as one of the perfect president for their nation and still obama is much popular than recent candidates. As a super power USA is controlling entire world and maybe for that their citizen don't love to elect someone from feminine gender (history proven). Thats why someone like Donald Trump made all prediction wrong on last election.

Hillary clinton could be the main reason for his success. After publishing last presidential election result worldwide news media's were shocked and there is no way deny that trump got tremendous support from putin. That's why Hillary supporters still loves to call him russian president not ameican.

Yes, you can bet on freebitco.in.  More information can be found on their site or on their ANN Thread.

Some movement in the markets since yesterday. Odds for Biden democratic nominee went down to 1.08 after Sanders withdrew and now are being back to 1.14. Clintons odds have come down rather a lot (22 as we speak) and she is 2nd fav in that market.

Next president odds for Trump have fallen below 2.00 too, so something going on there, but not sure what. Looks like there is some people speculating on a Hillary vs Trump duel, with Trump winning.

I disagree. Obama was not very popular among the people because he did not do the expected job during his terms. Hillary was only the sour icing on the cake.

Why did Trump win the independent votes and some of the blue states? The people were disappointed, I reckon.

In any case, let us wait for the announcement of Joe Biden's running mate and understand why he was chosen hehehehe. Hillary?
