There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
Are we about to get number 10? Given Trump has basically been campaigning his entire presidency rather than governing, it would be pretty embarrassing :lol
Say what you want about Obama, George W Bush, or Clinton...they were all 2 term presidents.
-
Re: There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
There have been 45 US presidents in history
Donald Trumps is one of them, with no prior political backround. And he's already accomplished more than Obama did in less than half the time.
Quite the embarrassment that billionaire Trump is

I'm just pointing out how embarrassing it will be for One Term Donnie if he loses as the incumbent. This hasn't happened for almost 30 years :lol

Re: There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
By his logic, the current trend is Presidents serving two terms :lol
Poor bastard is stuck with Trump for 4 more years.

Running as the incumbent is like playing the game on easy mode. Still too hard for One Term Donnie though :(

Re: There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
It's very hard to vote for the other guy when we don't even know where he stands on the issues that are going on today.
Hard to vote for him when he's not out on the campaign trail, pandemic or not.
He's too busy staying in his basement telling Black people that if they don't vote for him, they ain't Black. :oldlol:

Re: There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
The total amount of one term Presidents in this countries history will remain unchanged come November.
[U][B]Warnin[I]g[/I][/B][/U]: do not stand close to any leftist between 8 PM until around midnight on Tuesday November 3rd to avoid any brain matter getting on you as millions of heads explode across this country when Trump's win is confirmed on the major networks.

Campaigning just starts earlier and earlier every election cycle. It's just part of the PR/marketing arms race between the two parties.

Re: There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
There's a reason it's insanely hard to beat an incumbent. Trump's got a massive cash advantage right now. A few PACs of establishment Republicans are trying to come out for Biden and while that will generate press, it won't generate Republican dollars flowing to Biden in great quantities given Trump's approval rating among Republicans likely to vote in 2020. Trump is going to ejaculate money all over radio and TV in swing states and in social media in the fall in an attempt to define Joe Biden before Joe Biden gets a chance to do so.
Ohioans, Floridians, North Carolinians, Wisconsonians?...brace your buttholes.

Re: There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
I don't know who is going to win in November...none of us do
But I do know this...if the election were held today, Trump would lose to Biden.

Re: There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
[QUOTE=Patrick Chewing;14042673]Based on what?[/QUOTE]
no president has EVER won reelection with a sub 50% approval rating....Trump's is very low, just came in at 38% yesterday
and say what you want about the polls, but Biden is doing much better than Hillary was in the polls, and is winning in just about every swing state
this is not a good time for Trump...the economy is a mess, and regardless of who's fault it is, he will catch flak for it
all that said, I do not think it's impossible for Trump to turn things around by November

Re: There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
I'm actually intrigued by what happens if Biden wins, and displays as much mental deficit over four years in the public eye as I suspect he will, will he become the first incumbent not to get the opportunity to run for re-election? Would the Dems be forced to run someone else? Reagan was pretty shot by the end, but in 84 for re-election still was cogent (as I recall), but it was also a different time. A president wasn't forward facing the nation on a near daily basis the way he is now.

I do think the internet view that Biden is literally brain dead is way over-blown and exaggerated, but 77 is old af...he'd be 81 entering his 2nd term, yeah that's dementia age

Call me crazy, but I don't think Biden has any intention of running for a second term if he wins. I think he and the DNC understand that there are too many issues critical to the Dems agenda on which he has an openly shitty record. He can't be the party leader for the next decade convincingly under those conditions. I know he said otherwise in 2018 but he has to say that because if he wins he's basically a lame duck president right out of the gate and a one-and-done announcement probably tanks Democrats down the ticket.

Agreed. He's not running for a second term. The VP pick is extra crucial this year.

Biden is nothing but a figurehead. If he were to win which is EXTREMELY doubtful, he would resign soon after taking office putting his VP nominee in the oval office. The man simply is not working on all cylinders. I actually feel somewhat sorry for him as I see my father-in-law starting to go through dementia. There is a reason they will keep the Coronapocolypse narrative going through November which is to keep Biden out of the spotlight and off the debate stage where his illness would shine through.

Re: There have been 9 one term presidents in our countries history...
This election cycle is a throw away for the democrats. That is why they are running a guy who can't last more than 4 years.
The dumbos know Trump is an animal and they don't want to throw a fresh face Democrat in there that will get destroyed by trump and then that fresh face will disappear to mediocrity. Its the same when the republicans who didn't have anyone in 2008 when they went up against Odumbo and threw in an unelectable candidate. The next election cycle when Trump is out, the Dumbos will use a fresh face that not too many people have heard about.
The republicans made a mistake when they threw in Paul Ryan (this guy is a snake and only looking out for himself) in against odumbo in 2012. They should have kept Paul Ryan until 2016 when he may have had a chance to upset trump. Paul Ryan would have had the best chance to beat trump in the primaries.
But because Paul Ryan lost in 2012, he is now a known loser. Then he took the cowards way out and retired from politics because he was unsure whether trump would win the election, but was forced to back him prior to the election.

With the exclusion of el Mexicano above me, it's scary to see how many people would prefer a Democrat in office seeing how far Left and radical that party has gone. Biden would just be a puppet President. The people pulling the strings will be the Omar's and the AOC's of the world.
And if you're White, prepare to pay a Reparations tax. Prepare to pay a tax to be able to afford Free Healthcare and Free Tuition.
Say something remotely racist or discriminatory? Prepare to be arrested.
