Hang on how personal can political words be? If you want good things for all then who cares who said it first?

That said it does not look good to be caught out in a lie, unless you're trump obv.
All this footage is from 88.. surely 32yrs in the political wilderness is penance enough?

Maybe it's internal sabotage like we had.. the dems screwing over their own. ...nah they already did that to sanders.

And he was only 40-odd at the time remember

Trump and Corbyn for example have both had things from decades ago bandied about as reasons note to vote for them, so why should Biden be any different

We know what trumps were, draft dodger, rapist, bankrupt, sexist, tax evaders. What were the reasons Corbyn's shouldn't be voted for?

I know that invites accusations of 'percieved' reasons, so to avoid that im going to ask for actual evidence. As seen in the footage of Biden and the evidence we have of Trumps past, what actual footage or direct quote is there to suggest there was a genuine reason not to vote for Corbyn?

The difference being is that Biden has very clearly changed after being enlightened and challenged through his years in government, Trump has never had to face the reality of his bigotry and as a result, most definitely has not changed the views he has always held, if anything, they seem to have gotten worse as he’s gotten older

Neck and neck now with most bookmakers, some have Biden slight favourite. I still think Trump will win as it stands, however with a good performance in the debates Biden could easily take it.

He's 10 pts ahead in the polls. The bookies are irrelevant.

Nah they're not.

Also, Clinton was way ahead too in 2016.

A bookmaker never gets fooled twice. They were wrong last time admittedly.

The odds also reflect the general consensus, even the most hardcore supporter of either candidate will admit it'll be close.

They don't. They reflect who is betting money on it. Bookies are in the money business, not the consensus business.

They literally employ researchers and analysts on sport, racing, TV, speciality bets (like politics) etc. They make the odds, and they'll fluctuate depending on bets placed yes, but that's not the only way they'll go up or down.

Trust me, if a video emerges of Trump saying 'all Christians are dumb' or something that will effect the vote, his odds will massively drift. If on election night Biden is 1/50 to win, he'll win, making the odds relevant.

The bookies are in both the money business, and the general consensus business. They're not the be all end all, but they're certainly not irrelevant.

Not just an endorsement either, she stated ‘another 9/11 will be around the corner if Biden wins’

I mean, that sounds like a threat of terrorism does it not?

To be fair, there are better ways to spend time than going on about "white privilege" and critical race theory.
