US election 2020

Has he figured out where Kansas City is yet?

Maybe the people who mock him on this need to brush up on their Geography.Kansas City straddles the border and is in both Kansas and Missouri.

Won’t know until the 2nd Tuesday in November.... but the polls look good

Actually we'll know on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November.

A man of principles, scruples, integrity and bravery, Mitt Romney will probably be the only person in his debauched party full of self interested rich people making more and more money whilst the poor get poorer.

The US election is always held on Melbourne Cup day.

No, it is officially Missouri. Unless it's been Sharpied into Kansas now. And I'm not going to give Trump the benefit of the doubt about geography, there is plenty to suggest this is yet another topic he is completely incompetent at.

If you look at a small scale map, this is correct and is the general perception of those who don't reside in Mo. or K.

But the river separates states and KC in Mo. and KC in K. have different state/local governance. This appears to only important when POTUS cites K when the Chief's stadium is in Mo.

Why is there a Kansas City in both Kansas and Missouri? | KC History

The origin of modern-day Kansas City, Missouri dates back to the 1830s, when John McCoy founded the settlement of Westport at what is now Westport Road and Pennsylvania. McCoy chose this area to open an outfitting store for pioneers on the Santa Fe Trail. He then established a river boat landing...

Today Kansas City, Kansas and Kansas City, Missouri remain two separately incorporated cities but together, along with a number of other cities and suburbs, are part of the Kansas City Metropolitan area.

Kansas City, KS vs. Kansas City , MO (live, state, better) - City vs. City - City-Data Forum

Just out of curiosity, what are the differences between the two, besides one being much bigger? Mocut- fixed the title

When people think of, or hear about, Kansas City, it is usually the one in Missouri.
That's where the Chiefs and Royals play. It's where the Country Club Plaza is located.
The Nelson-Atkins art museum is in MO, as well as the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, and the numerous theater venues. The Liberty Memorial, WW1 Museum, ALL the big buildings downtown, the international airport, as well as the old downtown airport.... all in Missouri. The boulevards, the fountains, Worlds of Fun/Oceans of Fun... in Missouri.
Sprint Center, Power & Light District, City Market, 18th & Vine, Crossroads Arts District... all are in Missouri.

Kansas City, Kansas has the NASCAR track and the Legends shopping center. Also, a Schlitterbahn (?) water park is being built there. The T-Bones minor-league baseball team plays there.

The one in Missouri has a very wide mix of dense urban development, as well as numerous suburban-type areas old and new, and even wide open countryside (for now).
KCK, as it's known, has some older neighborhoods, some newer ones, and some open space as well, but not much in the way of true "urban" development.
KCMO takes up portions of 5 counties, while KCK is in 1.
Both have some very nice areas, and both have some very crime-ridden parts.
Ward Parkway in KCMO is a gorgeous old street lined with mansions from the early part of the 20th century. The Paseo at one time was the middle-class alternative, but now.. not so great. Still kind of pretty, though.

As predicted Trump was acquitted.

 

[RooFlyer]

OK, a lot said here and elsewhere about President Trump. What about the other contenders in the 2020 Election? What do you think about the policies of, say, Sanders and Warren? Would they be good for the USA and the world? What effect is foreseen on the US economy if they implemented those policies? How would this impact Australia?

Irrelevant. Haven't you already heard Trump say that he will win?

Cant be any worse. So many roll backs on rights and protections, its disgusting.

It is clear that Warren will cause significant disruption in tbe economy but many people will have better quality of life as a result. I think her economic and social policies are the most developed.

Wasn't that long ago this bloke was ridiculed for being Religious, Mormon, Millionaire, Republican, and someone that got caught on tape speaking about how 47% of the people don't pay income tax and are addicted to an entitled life of never-ending handouts.

His reason for voting the way he did - I'm profoundly religious. Not a very popular stance these days...

 

[get me outta here]

I thought the religious right was still heavily spruiking their so called religious credentials, even while practising extreme hypocrisy. Apparently, Romney is not as bad and wants to go down better than his contemporaries in history.

The perspective was a view from the other side, as they were the ones that hated him right up to a few hours ago - now they love him

In case it has slipped anybody’s mind this is the type of moral character and integrity the world needs in the White House - Election 2020

Trump lovers - any chance any of you can be honest for 1 minute and post the thoughts from your wives, daughters, mothers etc re above?

Those who are supporting Trump, from the public voters all the way up to Senate Republicans don't care. They just acquitted him on a charge he openly admitted to committing.
