I wonder how many politicians who actively ran for leadership have had sexual allegations made against them. I'm not saying I dont believe any of them but surely there is a trend to be found.

That's why I wouldn't back Trump yet, they get rid of Biden with anyone and Trump isn't favourite (thought I think he'll still probably win).

Biden is like Corbyn, everyone can see its not gonna work but they go through with it anyway.

I'd be v. surprised if creepy old Joe won, especially with the hatred of the woke left worse than it was in 2016
I've not backed Trump, I've layed Biden... the "Woke Left" will have to publicly destroy him, they can't & wont be seen to support him through a sexual assault allegation surely? Imo (eye roll & deep sigh moment) this allegation suits both Republicans & Democrats, Trump will use a full loaf to mop this gravy up & Dems get to use it to swap him out, it wouldn't surprise me if this all becomes another "Hoax" headline for Trump to tweet out soon, in a weird way he gains from running against Biden, while running a conspiracy on the Dems.
The woke left will support anyone running against Trump like they did with Clinton who did so much dodgy crap but they turn a blind eye because "it's not trump" so I dont think sexual allegations will put the hardcore left off.

I agree Biden to lay in the presidential market looks the best play atm as he might not even get there.

Feels a real bargain of a price too, Trump has already had every book under the sun thrown at him, the only spanner in the works for him is the virus which most leaders are being put through scrutiny over. I'm happy to lay Biden, theres more to come, usually one allegation leads to another.

Laying Biden is the way to go for me but it has nothing to do with these allegations.

There could very well be social distancing measures still around come November which would lead to lower turn out, lower turn out is bad for Biden and good for Trump.

The guy is older than Yoda. Chances are high he'll be dead before the election. If he gets infected it's game over.

Sounds like a plan...all that now needs to happen is JoeB to step aside (on health grounds) around Sept/Oct in readiness for Nov 3rd, then watch the drama unfold.... ;)
