Comparing Biden And Trump On 2020 Campaign Trail | MSNBC
decency versus immorality..not a hard choice in my book…
John D/ it’s not your business who vote.
@Gwendolyn Williams I’m done with them! They both sound sad and perhaps a smidge drunk. Whomever is paying these trolls is getting gypped.
@Gwendolyn Williams Why so stupid? You think people who disagree with you get paid?
@Lisa Elissa Speak for yourself, and stop being so damned mindless.
@Gwendolyn Williams For you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2a9h2uH4GY
I was so thankful when biden mentioned people are afraid of getting sick and having to die all alone. Not surrounded by love ones.
Like my father.
@Cecilia Lamson so sorry about your father. My thoights and prayers.
@Andrea Peters thankyou so much . My mom has it too so not much longer for both . I never believed it was a hoax tho. Plenty of coworkers have gotten sick. I work at usps. 🙂
@Cecilia Lamson stay safe and well.
@Andrea Peters thankyou so very much I will. You stay safe too
I would rather have a candidate that thought about his words and talked slowly but reasonably than a maniac who goes off half-cocked and talks at con-man speed to keep himself from getting caught in his lies.
@shav12 Look, even Fox who used to only praise Trump are starting to call him out on his BS, question dodging, lies, etc. People are tired of having a liar and wannabe authoritarian for a president. Someone who puts their deepest support at risk for their own personal gain shouldn’t be president at all.
Well said, thank you!
Except he’s not “keeping himself from getting caught” – lots of people point out the lies he tells all the time. What he does is double down on them and expects his followers to believe him just because he says so, and tells so many that people become numb to it.
Truth And how is that? Have you seen Trump treating little girls like his dolls? I don’t think so.
Joni H*** and he will accomplish nothing .
Make America Normal Again!
Biden/Harris 2020
President Trump we are with you to the end. We will not surrender to the left. We will not stop fighting for you. We will never give up. We will protect you and you protect us. You are our CHAMPION OUR LEADER we are your troops. We kneel to Jesus and Jesus alone. And we salute you as our God appointed President. May God give you the power to bring our nation to salvation through Jesus and save the babies that would be slaughtered by the ungodly. May you be given the guidance to lead this country and for you to have great health. May those who appose us be changed. AMEN TRUMP 2020. We Love you President Trump. We will fight harder.
My fellow Republicans we are one and united. We must stay strong and unified at all times for we have been attacked by the left down to our rights. Ban together and stay strong.
That is what I thought too. We were normal nation.
Biden ain’t shiet Biden only want used black peoples his play like his care is way the want meet with the flake family to think is the best he’ll nah yes try to used black peoples
Biden will be exposed for dementia. They already have Doctors providing ways for Trump to expose Joe’s mental problems. It’s going to be embarrassing for all you Biden/Harris idiots.
Trump has mental issues right now. And is beyond curable.
Oohh you met with the pastors. Did they want to meet with you? I know one pastor that loves you and you love him hmmm wonder why? But his names is? Jerry fallwell Jr. Im assuming you still know him mr president. For now anyway.
Every Democrat that I know is voting for Trump . All of them say that they are ashamed that they voted for that thing Hillary in 2016
@The Truth sure buddy..

yeshttps://youtu.be/0AcMp9JJ8q0K
Sure we want police to be police.
Not judge jury and EXECUTIONERS
AMEN‼️‼️‼️
Police are like guard dog, if it kills a human being, it needs to be put down.
Open your eyes, the media is lying, the Dems are encouraging domestic terrorism
Exactly
Trumps cult will make excuses for everything he do. I want to have someone in my life that loyal
Red why would they have doctors to check on Biden. It is Trump that need medical attention. He can’t even hold a glass with one hand and how many times we see him off balance ie need help walking down the ramp. Almost falling on the way up a podium.
Another thing Trump forgets what he talk about within a few minutes and says things contradictory just a few minutes later than says he never say what he say. All within minutes. Perhaps it is Trump that has dementia?
Ol’ “Red” here, has been paid to snipe at Trump’s political opposition using all the approved cliche’s and talking points- I’m curious about whether he has a crib sheet, or manual of some kind to cut-and-paste from. It’s all so childish. Why can’t he talk about what he’s FOR, and how his candidate may further his goals? Because his only “goal” here is to praise his leader and follow him anywhere, and enjoy the show of seeing his great leader’s enemies defeated, or slaughtered, or whatever. It’s certain that if he were to reply to this, he would be entirely limited to further ad-hominem attacks on Biden, Democrats, and “liberals”, or highly exaggerated claims about what his Leader has supposedly accomplished, with no acknowledgement or recognition of any actual issues that real people are dealing with, beyond whatever his Master has said about it. Lame.
R Smith. How about starting with an English teacher in your life.
@William Burgess your cult leader told you to ingest bleach hahaha gtfoh inbred racist.
The real difference between these two campaigns: One is a narcissist; the other is a human with empathy.
@Jon Gates What does the impeachment have to do with anything? lol u must be another bot.
@Michael Appel definitely not a bot. just saying the news keeps telling you its about to end, we finally got him, he’s done forsure this time. Lies all lies!!! Trump is not perfect but he’s not what the news makes him out to be. Sorry the left wasn’t happy when he took office but get over it. You lost 3.5 years to lies about trump when you could have been picking the next president. Now we get trump 4 more years! Makes me happy only because I believe in hard work and keeping what I earn!! Gas tax is a tax on the poor!! Phasing out fossil fuels to quickly will hurt the economy… we need to hang on as long as we can… a working class can’t support a non working class!!!!
the silent majority caused trump to win last time what do you think the silent majority is gonna be like this time. 2 to 3 times bigger my friend.
I’m not racist.
I’m not a bot.
I use critical thinking!
I watch both sides!
@Michael Appel don lemon head is a little slow his cognitive test prove that… stop believing that stuff its all lies…. I love how trump said something a little obscure and that’s a lie. News networks say anything they want and you believe them i watch the whole clips not just one side. Open your brain!!!
What about Bill flying on the pedo express 26 times
The humanitarian have being enriching for 47 years this ad is a montage that was a lawsuit . Biden campaign was caught when that girl said the messages were prepared. Biden is a creepy old man.
THANK YOU JOE BIDEN for bringing SANITY to the campaign! 🇺🇸 Biden/Harris for PRESIDENT/VP 2020! 🇺🇸 God Bless, RESTORE, and PROTECT America! Build Back Better! 💕
Maybe you should check if you are saved or self deceived.
@The Truth What don’t you understand? Reread the post … Slowly.
@The Truth WRONG. FACT CHECK! Biden supports prayer, confession, and a woman’s right to choose what to do with her body. Biden, like me, would support helping a woman to choose life and provide her with needed support. That’s what JESUS would do.
JESUS IS JUDGE and sin has been paid for if you are SAVED by HIS BLOOD and WORK on The CROSS.
Are YOU SAVED?
Every Democrat that I know is voting for Trump . All of them say that they are ashamed that they voted for that thing Hillary in 2016
@The Truth at the end trump won’t fight for you
I wish the press would stop covering coward in chief because he really has nothing substantial to say
John D Joe Biden is so forward looking to debate trump. how dare you question joes physical fee, feen… his physical fit, feet-ness!
@Barrys-Take-Two
LMAO@ASSHAT
Are you “projecting”again. or just severely delusional ?
@C. MURPHY Typical delusional liberal response. Deflect the problem back the other way to ignore reality.
@Reg U Typical delusional liberal response. Deflect the problem back the other way to ignore the truth.
@Joe Crockrell Very easily Joe. Is that the only reason you like Biden is because you both are named Joe? I’d bet it is.
Biden is the candidate with a real plan how to stop covid-so we can start to live our lives again-
G
yeshttps://youtu.be/0AcMp9JJ8q0K
Oh good!. I must have missed him speak about his plan to end the virus. What are his plans??
R.E.D. “person man woman camera tv”
Literally every thing he’s mentioned in his COVID plan has already been done. By Trump. But keep trying! 😉
@Da Marc Yeah, all that “more than circumstantial evidence” Adam Schiff kept saying he had for about 11 months really came in handy in proving that the dossier had literally nothing that the FBI could validate, at least according to Andrew McCabe’s 7.5 hours of testimony. But keep trying! 😉
Mitch McConnell needs to go as well, his reign in the Senate must end in Nov as well
TruckerExile E I guess the oldsters who are in office fo SO LONG, are getting paid BIG BUCKS, so they stay too long. Who knows if they are mentally fit to do their jobs?
Moscow Mitch

yeshttps://youtu.be/0AcMp9JJ8q0K
What about Biden selling off American business?
When Biden sees people suffer, he feels empathy and tries to comfort them. When Trump does, he feels disgust and tries to mock them.
HAIL TRUMP!!! 🤚🤚🤚
HAIL VICTORY!!! 🤚🤚🤚
MAGA 2020 LANDSLIDE!!! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Every Democrat that I know is voting for Trump . All of them say that they are ashamed that they voted for that thing Hillary in 2016
You. mean he’s a disgusting mocking guy as Pres.?
The Truth hahahahaha okayyy
Trump has the same lady screaming at every speech!!! 🙄. 🤣🤣🤣
You meant its shameful to hail DJT as successful now?
How could people have the ILLUSION of having a “STRONG” ECONOMY when they’re LIVING PAYCHECK to PAYCHECK?? Their KIDS rely on SCHOOLS to have BREAKFAST, LUNCH, & even DINNER!! Some FAMILIES who LIVE in their CARS for YEARS! Same as a good percentage of STUDENTS!! Then, as soon as someone loses their job they find themselves on the streets because they can longer afford their rent, or mortgage! They starve with their families because they can’t afford to buy food either! The LEVEL of POVERTY I see in THIS country IS the WORST I’ve EVER SEEN in REGULAR TIMES personally in my entire life! And I lived in Europe, Asia, & Africa!! The Trump’s administration’s selling people SMOKING MIRRORS, & they’re buying it!!🤦🏽🤦🏽 WAKE UP!!
Trump-Russia probe corruption was ‘much worse than we thought’.

All in the name of greed.
Trump 2020 since Trumps administration has taken over my line of work has tripled. #walkaway #blxit watch bidens creepy speech in the church that aren’t allowed to open.
Come on AMERICA OPEN YOUR EYES!!! GET RID OF TANGERINE MAN!!!
@Da Marc Yes The Lincoln Project. Republicans against Trump… what a concept. Even smart Republicans are sick of him. Run along now, go brush your tooth.
@Da Marc Funny that you know his legs are hairy.
@Timothy Johnson I know, right. Biden, himself, stated that fact. Check it out:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-eD2n2dD2Y
And you want him to be our pres…
@Timothy Johnson LMFAO
@Da Marc Yes I do.
Rounding.the turn on COVID-19..????
Where is he???
Another universe ????
I’m Australian and we have our own problems but I’ve got “Trump Fatigue” and he is infecting our politics.
I emphasize and apologize
yea aye, true that my ozzie whanau
In 2016 Trump said, “Real power is — fear.” So remember… “When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.” [Thomas Jefferson]
4 keys to preventing Trump from rigging our votes:
1. Check your voter registration status NOW.
County clerks in Republican districts across the country fraudulently purge voter rolls of legitimate Democrat voters prior to each election. In the 2014 mid-term election, I arrived at my local polling station only to discover I was no longer registered to vote, even though I had been a resident of my county and living at the same address for seven years. I was forced to cast a “provisional ballot,” which I suspect was not counted in the final vote tally. Since then, I have always verified my voter registration status well ahead of upcoming elections to ensure I have time to re-register in case of any Republican shenanigans.
2. Vote early.
In Republican states, there will no doubt be attempts to suppress voter turnout in Democratic districts by limiting the number of polling stations and reducing polling hours. This will likely be under the guise of protecting voters and polling workers from Covid-19 exposure.
Laws no doubt vary by state. In Texas, voters must vote at their designated polling location on Election Day. However, during the early voting period, voters can vote at any open polling location in their county of residence. This makes it more difficult for Republicans to target Democratic districts for poll closures and restricted hours. Find the early voting laws for your state, and vote as early as possible. This will point you in the right direction: https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/early-voting-in-state-elections.aspx
3. Use no-excuse absentee voting in states where it is available.
“No excuse absentee voting” means you can request an absentee ballot from your state or county election official for any reason. Currently, 29 states offer no excuse absentee voting, including the most important swing states: Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin. If your state is on this list, request an absentee ballot and mail it no later than October 20th to ensure it is received and counted: https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/vopp-table-1-states-with-no-excuse-absentee-voting.aspx
Mail in ballots can be dropped off at your local election board in most cases, or authorized ballot boxes at various locations in your state. That will lighten the burden on the Post Office that Trump has kneecapped.
To New Yorkers: New York State has Republican districts. Due to COVID-19, the legislature recently passed several bills to make it easier to request an absentee ballot. The date was moved up so you can request one today. You can use COVID-19 as a reason. For more information see: https://www.governor.ny.gov/news/governor-cuomo-signs-law-sweeping-election-reforms#_blank
4. Do NOT waste your vote.
Yes, my fellow Americans, I am also frustrated by the two-party system, and I understand the appeal of underdog third-party candidates. You must realize, however, that a vote for a third-party candidate is effectively a vote for Trump. Don’t believe me? Just look at the numbers. Two states, Florida and Wisconsin, tipped the Electoral College for Trump in 2016. Trump won Florida by 113,000 votes and Wisconsin by a mere 23,000 votes. The top two third-party candidates, Gary Johnson and Dr. Jill Stein, captured 271,000 combined votes in Florida and 137,000 combined votes in Wisconsin. According to exit polls, the overwhelming majority of these votes were from disenfranchised Liberal voters who refused to vote for Hillary Clinton. Joe Biden is not my preferred candidate (“Bernie/Warren 2020” was my dream ticket). Nevertheless, *we must be united in taking back our country* and make America thrive again. Please share this message as often as possible from now to Election Day. Say “NO” to another four years of fascism.
Flush the turd on November the 3rd! 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊💩
