Are Dems Crazy? How Can Biden Still Be Choice?
1-6-20, RealClearPolitics --I don't know about you, but I seriously overestimated the intelligence of the average Democrat voter. How can they still support Joe Biden for president? Honestly, I never expected Uncle Joe to do well in the first place. After all, he is a known for:

• shady business in Ukraine his role in getting a Ukrainian prosecutor fired
• serial plagiarizer
• groper
• dysfunctional brain that's consistently out of synch with reality
• an old white guy who's been in politics for 40 years and with Obama accomplishing little

​Other than that, he's OK? In any normal campaign year, Joe Biden would have preceded Eric Swalwell and Bill de Blasio to the exit; but this isn't a normal political campaign 'season.'

Pres Trump changed the entire dynamic of the 2020 election cycle when he made that telephone call to Ukraine on Jul 25, 2019. Some facts about the Ukraine mess: in 2014 Biden’s son Hunter obtained a cushy job on the board of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings, for years Burisma had been under investigation for corruption, -->

<-- ​ the former vice president had an apparent conflict of interest when he intervened by threatening to withhold U.S. aid to Ukraine unless the investigating prosecutor was summarily fired. 

Suffice it to say that by mentioning the scandal in his conversation with Ukraine's President Zelensky, that was later made public by a “whistleblower” complaint; President Trump had accomplished two things that no one could have anticipated — first, he inoculated Biden from criticism by his Democrat opponents and, second, he sucked all the oxygen out of the Democrat primary campaign by igniting the media conflagration known colloquially as the “Impeachment Hoax.”

​Suddenly, Biden was elevated to a folk hero among the Democrats on the sole basis that he had become Trump’s favorite target. By the perverse logic of “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” Biden’s involvement in the Ukraine was off-limits. Joe and Hunter had already been investigated and cleared of wrongdoing, we were told, although no one ever said who had done the “investigation,” nor where we could find the report. The only thing certain was that the Fake News Media didn’t investigate, and had no intention to do so. How convenient for Biden. As I said, he was lucky to have President Trump as an enemy.

15 Election Results Were Tossed Over Fraudulent Mail 
4-21-20, DailySignal -- The liberal leftist argue that 'voter fraud is too nominal to make a difference in any given election.' Tell that to voters in parts of Florida, Missouri, New York, and North Carolina in recent years. Districts in these four states saw election outcomes overturned after absentee voter fraud came to light.  Now, with millions of Americans homebound because of COVID-19, progressives are amping up their push for national mail-in voting as Michelle Obama throws her support behind related legislation purporting to be a response to the pandemic...
