Biden to hold in-person campaign events in September



"Here’s the deal. We plan on, without jeopardizing or violating state rules about how many people can in fact assemble,” Biden said. “But we’re going to do it in a way that is totally consistent with being responsible, unlike what this guy’s doing. He’s on the White House lawn tonight first of all violating the Hatch Act.”

Biden told supporters that he would not hold “irresponsible rallies,” and would follow public health guidelines."



Wisconsin
Minnesota
Pennsylvania
Arizona



Uh oh. Sean and Rush need to move on to the next talking point.

Someone on Biden's staff gave him a map with Wisconsin on it? #weekendatbernies2

Biden and Harris, both together and separate, need to visit the 17 states that are listed by Real Clear Politics.

Use safety at rallies, unlike anything that trump or pence do.

what's the point? it's just going to result in more COVID cases, and pretty much everyone already knows who they are going to vote for or against.

Tests and no personal contact.

do you find that to be a likely scenario? it isn't. this is a really bad year for a campaign.

It's a really bad year to descend into a right wing fascist autocracy (okay, some of that might have been redundant), but here we are.

And no, I'm not arguing that it's okay or smart to gather in groups.

I wonder what the maximum size of groups are in the States listed.

Alluding to Hillary's epic failure re: Wisconsin.

Biden should go to Minnesota too; it was the only state Mondale lost. It won't be that bad; but he should cover his arse. Biden will get Hawaii and California....

No, it doesn't just come down to Florida, but yeah, obviously if Biden gets Florida it's automatic game over. The fact that Trump is putting all his chips on Wisconsin is odd, though.

yeah, that's what i meant. if Trump loses Florida it's over.

if he wins Florida then the math (other battleground states) gets really interesting and confusing.

it sometimes feels like we are crossing a bridge that the inertia of normal might not be able to prevent. let's see how i feel about it tomorrow.

The last "inertia of normal" happened last fall, when the political fallout of extorting a foreign leader to help him cheat in an election was seen as damaging...perhaps even fatally so. I think we all knew that once the Senate acquitted him...which interestingly enough we all knew would happen...all bets were off. The last couple of months have given us the dividends of that acquittal, and it's accelerating at a logarithmic rate.

You know, I think I'm finally starting to see why my friends don't come to me for comfort.

Democrats lost the five Midwest states because they didn’t pay enough attention to them. You can bet trump and Air Force One won’t have that problem.

Trump rallied all of last week, never with safety. They’ve done it the whole time this week rubbing Americans nose in it. That should make a difference.

You are correct but Trump will win Florida.

The question is, will Biden win Minnesota and advert an epic landslide?
