This could get very messy if either of the candidates die or are long term incapacitated.

The way the system works means it’s likely, but not automatic, that the vice presidential candidates would step up, but months of legal wrangling could ensue. This is about the most complicated time for a candidate to have to drop out, only a month to go before voting, postal ballots already out there, many states with rules that their electoral college votes have to be cast to the winning name on the ballot paper.
 
Just you wait in 2 weeks or so. A few sob stories and "Ive been there and beaten it" A couple of tears to camera three... a good angle for the face and he's ratings will go through the roof. America loves a hero. Biden won't be able to use the Covid debate now?

He was already a hero for overcoming bone spurs wasn't he?

The Vietnamese are still heaving a sigh of relief that he was prevented from being drafted, despite him begging to be sent into battle. He would have been the most awesome soldier ever, everyone says so. He would have destroyed the Viet Cong singlehandedly. Bigly. Much better than the losers who are in the military now, or allowed themselves to be captured.

Stroller you know how the Americans are... by the way I am no supporter of Trump or Biden... not my country let the Americans decide. I just see this overwhelming support for him because he has Covid. And you know when he recovers he will say "The doctors had never seen a recovery like mine. I amazed them all".

I really don't see that getting ill can help his chances in the election at all. It just brings home how poorly he's handled the virus.
 
If he comes through the other side he will probably spin it as though he beat China in a war and claim himself a war hero... sadly a lot of his support will lap that **** up

It’ll play well with his thick as **** base who will believe he was injected with Covid by Russian-funded aliens if he tells them that’s what happened. He needs more than that to win.
:emoticon-0127-lipss I wouldn't mention Aliens/Russia/Area 51 Watford as we have some believers on here.
 
934 cases in Northern Ireland today for a population of 2m approx. Very worrying for the whole island here.
 
Yeah it’s not necessary to take to social media to wish death on the bloke even if, being honest, I can think of worse things to happen to the world than the sudden expiration of Donald Trump. Would rather he came through and went to prison but not much I can do about it either way.
