DNC Agrees With Joey "Fingers" Biden on Need to Postpone or Cancel Democratic National Convention
Scheduled for July, but apparently it will be delayed or outright cancelled.
Update: It's now been scheduled for August 17-21. I guess they'll do an "online convention," maybe?Democratic Party leaders across the country are calling on party bosses to curtail, postpone or dramatically rethink the party's national convention scheduled for July in Milwaukee, concerned that holding a mass gathering just as levels of infection are expected to ebb could expose thousands to the coronavirus once again.On The Hill's podcast, there's even speculation that Biden will refuse a face-to-face debate, insisting on a Skype "debate." That would have the not-unwanted effect for Biden of driving down ratings and causing most of the public to not see him babbling incoherently like an old man lost in the Walmart parking lot. The media has pushed Trump to accept a phone call from Joe Biden, so that Trump may have the benefit of the Sage of Scranton's expertise in epidemiology. I say: Okay, but require Biden (and Trump) to make the phone call a video phone call. Why? Because otherwise Joe Biden is going to have gotcha questions fed to him by aides. Sure Trump can take Biden's call -- as long as it's actually Biden talking, not just repeating attack lines fed to this senile old rapist by his handlers. Let's see how Joey Fingers' mental acuity holds up on a high-stakes phone call with someone who isn't actively trying to protect and help him, as his media shills are. And let's actually see it. Let's see this senile, demented old rapist react in real time and offer his own advice.
Calls from the party faithful to rethink the Democratic National Convention come as the party's presumed presidential nominee, former Vice President Joe Biden, for the first time publicly expressed doubt that the gathering could proceed as it has in the past. "It's hard to envision that," Biden said Tuesday in an MSNBC interview this week. "We ought to be able -- we were able to do it in the middle of the Civil War all the way through to World War II -- have Democratic and Republican conventions and primaries and elections and still have public safety. And we're able to do both. But the fact is it may have to be different."

Honestly, I know people in the restaurant biz who were looking forward to making a ton of money off the convention. Now they are on the verge of closing completely. I feel bad for those people.

A "Karen" is an obnoxious, entitled, usually liberal white woman who:
Drives an SUV to carpool her kids to soccer practice... better hope the ref doesn't make a wrong call because she will sue!
Karens love to use Snapagram to post their workout selfies
After a long day of activities such as berating the Burger King manager because she was shorted a ketchup packet, and driving her kids around, a Karen sits down with her mom friends at book club and drinks lots and LOTS of wine.

I receives emails from a local restaurant a couple times a week about specials, etc.
I just got one from them and at the top was a statement in large print:
APOLOGIES AS WE ARE EXPERIENCING LIMITED DELIVERIES FROM OUR FOOD SUPPLIERS SO THE MENU WILL BE FACING LIMITED MENU ITEMS AND SOLD OUT ITEMS FREQUENTLY! THANK FOR YOUR PATIENCE!
Am I dense/naïve for thinking, "Uh, what's going on with the food supply?" or should this be normal as people are panic buying food and it takes a while for suppliers to catch up? Or perhaps they just aren't ordering as much?

If there's no convention, the DNC members can convene (somehow) and nominate someone. Hint: it won't be Bernie and isn't likely to be Joe. Thimblerigging comes naturally to Democrats.
After Tom Eagleton dropped out as VP nominee in 1972 that's how Sargent Shriver ("Beers for everyone and a Courvoisier for me!") got picked as his replacement.

The media has pushed Trump to accept a phone call from Joe Biden, so that Trump may have the benefit of the Sage of Scranton's expertise in epidemiology.
I say: Okay, but require Biden (and Trump) to make the phone call a video phone call.
Why? Because otherwise Joe Biden is going to have gotcha questions fed to him by aides.
Sure Trump can take Biden's call -- as long as it's actually Biden talking, not just repeating attack lines fed to this senile old rapist by his handlers.
+++++++++++++
I don't think it will work. One of the benefits of a debate stage is so-called "sterile conditions." Both people are on an even playing field and can't be fed answers - things like teleprompters, cue cards, earpieces, etc. are obvious. Yes, they can get the questions in advance (like CNN did for the Dem, which will surely happen again) but that still requires you to prepare an answer, be able to recognize the question and then give the appearance of extemporaneous speach when you regurgitate it.
Via a video chat scheme, all of this goes out the window. They can give him cue cards, talking points, exact language, etc. off-screen. Video chat will make Biden look better. Whether it is enough to make him look *good* is another question, but the setup is advantageous to Biden.

The whole floated idea of "canceling" it drums up interest in it, makes headlines, and gets people (even us) talking about it. This is *part* of the marketing strategy:
Will they???
*Won't* they???
It's like The Bachelor.
And it ends with...
"OMG they're having the convention!!! It hasn't been cancelled after all!!!! Still they persisted!!! Wow!!!! It's gonna be *so* AMAZING!!!"
Plays way better to the masses than "The Convention will proceed as scheduled. This is C-Span."

I read a couple of weeks ago that the supply chains for restaurants and for grocery stores are separate lines and the restaurant supply line was going to switch over to grocery stores to stay alive, with most restaurants closed.
It may be that the regular distribution lines for restaurants are rather slim right now. Nobody is buying bulk boxes of restaurant type cans, fresh produce, etc.

And how does CUOMO get credit when this thing is over and not Trump--who has given Cuomo EVERYTHING he asked for?

To add to the information dump...
From Pharmacy and Therapeutics, via the CDC...
"Influenza is a highly contagious respiratory illness that is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality. Approximately 9pct of the world's population is affected annually, with up to 1 billion infections, 3 to 5 million severe cases, and 300,000 to 500,000 deaths each year.1-3
In the U.S. alone, nearly 20pct of the population is affected. On average, 25 to 50 million documented influenza cases, 225,000 hospitalizations, and ultimately more than 20,000 deaths occur every year.1,2,4-7"
Chinese Bat Virus gots a lot of catching up to do.
But apparently we are going to destroy the global economy over something that may or may not be worse than the flu.

Karens don't have managers. They either ARE managers or their husbands or alimonies cover the charges. A Karen is always middle-class or higher, but no matter where a Karen falls on the economic ladder, a Karen always aspires to be, and often even claims to be, on a higher rung than the one they are on. Which is already pretty high.
Posted by: Guy Smiley at April 02, 2020 02:23 PM (KxVoZ)
"Karen" is the Left's latest way to mainstream hate on a group of people they actually despise - women - *all* women - by pretending it's only a certain kind of woman (straight white middle-aged women) they are hating on.

She's always said she has no problem with plastic surgery and botox, etc. and will keep doing it as long as she is alive.
And the results of that is starting to show. I saw a photo of her recently and she looks like she has a china face. Shiny, unliving, with giant eyelashes. Like a big puppet.

Drives an SUV to carpool her kids to soccer practice... better hope the ref doesn't make a wrong call because she will sue!
Karens love to use Snapagram to post their workout selfies
After a long day of activities such as berating the Burger King manager because she was shorted a ketchup packet, and driving her kids around, a Karen sits down with her mom friends at book club and drinks lots and LOTS of wine.
A "Karen" gives kids raisins on Halloween.

*Any* name given to an identifiable group as defined by common behaviors and patterns, is simply going to be unfair to any "normals" bestowed with the same name, decades earlier, at the time of their birth.
But then, for most, life is a succession of one "unfair" after another, interspersed with few and occasional successes and happy surprises.
Trick is, finding happiness in spite of the unfairness. Or in triumph over it.

How many black women or hispanic women are named Karen?
We may think we identify with this stereotype and know some "Karens" of our own, but don't fall for the bullshit. The Left despises women and even moreso since white women voted for Trump over Hillary.
They are trying to get the culture on board with hating all straight white women, now that the abuse and subjugation of men and masculinity is nearly complete.

School in the fall can begin before Labor day if they so choose( Michigan has a law on the books that school couldn't start before Labor day- so many businesses up north are seasonal and were losing teenagers before the season ended.)

which in itself makes the character a bore, but usually the actress tapped to play the Mary Sue helps a LOT with the dullness factor too
Posted by: THE_BlackOrchid_STATE! at April 02, 2020 02:27 PM (j9HX3)
You can have a competent, extremely powerful character that isn't a Mary Sue, but they need challenges on a level with their power level, and should not be better than their supporting characters in that character's main area.
Superman avoids being the male equivalent because he has powerul enemies and weaknesses. He has struggles and character development, despite being ridiculously powerful.

I get it.
But I'm always pretty far ahead of my time on certain things. And this is one is obvious to me. White men are done. Who is next on the Left's hate list? Who will be the next state-sanctioned second class citizen demographic? Who is next most "privileged"? In five years we will look back and say it was all so obvious.
Women are going to suffer even more than they have in the past. Because all the old prejudices will be joined by these new ones. Plus the elevation and proliferation of Islam where women are... you guessed it... second class citizens.
And with stuff like this "Karen" bullshit, the commies are going to make sure society never questions it and, heck, even enjoys it. They've even got people from our side on the train. But I predict that won't last long, especially when white women realize they are ALL Karen.
I mean, at one time I used to hate racists and sexists. Then I stated totally innocuous opinions... and magically became one.

+++++++++++++++
(never mind that it's for a slush fund - assume against all evidence and precedent that the UN is going to be an honest steward)
Let's assume it is based on 2019 GNP. No estimates for that per my cursory web search, so let's use GDP.
United States: $21.43 trillion. 10% of that is $2.143 trillion. Per capita (estimated; 350 million people) that is $6,122.
China: $14.2165 trillion. 10% of that is $1.421 trillion. Per capita (estimated; 1.43 billion people), that is $1,060.
So the UN wants the United States to pay about six *times* more per person than the country that caused this calamity?
Two words: Get Fucked.

You're right in the sense that a national lockdown actually helps the Democrats a ton this year, where in any other year it would be death to a non-incumbent. Imagine if it was under Obama they had stopped Trump from holding rallies?
The rub is I think the Democrats will hold their convention. I also think they know they're going to lose and are preparing their excuses for why it wasn't a real victory by Trump now.
He's going to win the popular vote - this was pretty obvious a couple years ago, but especially now that the Democrats couldn't drum up much enthusiasm for anyone - and they can't have Trump running with a "mandate" so it's going to be some version of "trump used the coronavirus to cheat" or "biden wasn't fit" or even possibly "ukrainnnneee".

Without getting into too much detail, I can only say that dislike ignorance, but when it's mixed with arrogance, it tips the scale into actually draining my damned-near bottomless well of patience.
I'ma now have to explain to a grown-ass man about the facts of life. About how if he thinks he can negotiate with me, he's delusional, because negotiation requires mutual leverage, and he has none, and the compromise will be: NO COMPROMISE. Because fuck you, that's why.

I listened to Cuomo today. He sounded like a Donald Trump, decrying the inability of a decimated American manufacturing base - caused by China - to produce the ventilators he wants and so he now has to order from China. Where the corona-virus originated.
It was a WTF moment. Not sure how that's gonna play with the base, but it sure is popcorn popping time.

I see your point, but it's kinda tough to side with "Karen" when "Karen" is agreeing with the people who say Orange Man Bad, White Man Bad, Diversity is Our Strength and so on. The leftist radicals wouldn't have the power they do if the "Karens" didn't give it to them. 'Karen" is the one who applauds Queer Studies or Black Studies SJWs. Nothing deplorables say will convince her. She'll side with the left until they stab her in the back so hard than even she will not be able to deny it. But then she'll blame White Men.
