The media is so fixated on the fly resting on Pence's head; whereas Pence maintains his composure and is focused on getting the message out there. The democrats and media are preoccupied by a myriad of things all not pertaining to the important issues at hand; they are only concerned about bashing against Trump and Pence
Best part about Pence was when he stressed on the media not doing their job responsibly

all those measures are taken in the event you come in contact with a person who has it without you knowing they do. usually these encounters are short duration with the longest sustained period likely to be while standing in line.

with that in mind the president definitively has covid and biden is in the at risk group, and just because Trump responded well to treatments does not mean biden will should he get infected.
The debate was an hour and a half last night.

There are ways. But those ways don't involve teleprompters, so team Harris-Biden are not interested.

Please provide the research. Thank you.
Here is one example from his link in regards to racism. "On August 15, 2017, Trump held a press conference where he was hesitent to condemn the rally attendees, and stated, "you had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides." [3] Donald Trump is stating here, in no uncertain terms, that some white nationalists are very fine people."

Totally taken out of context. Kamala Harris brought this up last night and Pence creamed her with his answer. Anyone with any integrity knows exactly what President Trump meant.

This should get you started.

I think a lot of these items are addressed here: Trump did condemn white supremacists, too bad so many people won't listen

Refused To denounce white supremacists: Here's a video the main stream media and you chose to ignore
Defended White Nationalists, stating there were "very fine people": As @Parley cleared up, his statement was taken out of context. He was referring to all people at the protests. There were many people who did not want to see historical statues being torn down. Not all of these people were white supremacists or white nationalists. Here's the actual video. You should watch all of it before taking some words out of context:
Pardoned Sheriff Joe Arpaio: Why is this proof that Trump is racist? He has also pardoned many black individuals that he also thought were unfairly tried, and has signed the First Step Act into law in 2018, which reformed many of the policies of incarceration. As you may know, many black Americans have benefited from this act. Here's a link for you to read up on it: President Donald J. Trump Has Championed Reforms That Are Providing Hope to Forgotten Americans | The White House

Defended the Confederate flag: Trump has repeatedly said that the flag is a historical part of the south, and should be preserved as well as the historic statues. We should not destroy history just because we don't agree with it. George Santayana wrote “Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it.” Tearing down things we don't agree with sounds a lot like what they do in Communist countries. Would you not agree?

Yeah you are right. I caught myself in the middle of going through his list and wondered what the hell I was doing.
Exactly. It is a fools errand and no reason to do so. All he did was quote some far left wing source and he wants us to dispute it item by item. That'll be the day. :)

Montana Poll: Steve Daines Surges Against Democrat Steve Bullock

Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) leads Montana Gov. Steve Bullock (D) in the heated Montana Senate race, according to a poll released Wednesday.

An Emerson College survey found Daines (pictured) leads Bullock by nine points or 52 to 43 percent. Five percent of voters remain undecided. Daines has expanded his lead since the last Emerson Montana poll; Daines led by six points when Emerson released the poll in August.

Spencer Kimball, the director of Emerson College polling, said, “Montana looks about the same as it did at this time in the 2016 race, we will be looking to see if there is a late break in the state which last time went for Trump giving him a 20 point win.”

The Emerson College poll shows more support for Daines compared to a Data for Progress survey released on Wednesday. The Data for Progress poll had Bullock leading Daines by one point over Daines.

A Siena College/New York Times poll released in September had Daines leading Bullock by one point.

An AARP survey released in September also had Daines leading Bullock by three points.

Daines’ bid for a second term serves as one of the many crucial races for control of the Senate majority. Republicans have a 53-member majority in the U.S. Senate, and Democrats need to flip a neat four seats to gain control of Congress’ upper chamber.

Meanwhile in Portlandia....
Why hasn't the DOJ investigated, charged and prosecuted this supporter of domestic terrorism with all the rest of his ilk doing the same? They're too afraid of being accused of being heavy-handed? Maybe after the election but I doubt it. You can bet if this were in reverse those DA's would have been tried in the media long ago.
