The heated and disorderly Trump-Biden debate this week undoubtedly made an impact on US voters’ perception of the two candidates. Verbal exchange aside, the presidential contenders’ body language had a role to play too, and appeared to speak volumes about their confidence. Dr Michelle Cohen, a psychological expert on communication, relationships, personal issues, body language, life coaching, life choices, profiling, and self-help guidance, believes that Trump’s body language was more assertive and emanated confidence, whereas Biden’s gestures and posture were humbler, yet the Democratic candidate had his “powerful moments”, too.

Former US Secretary of State and Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton has admitted that she wanted to tell President Donald Trump to “shut up” during their debates in 2016. “You have no idea”, Clinton tweeted on Wednesday, responding to a tweet by feminist author Jill Filipovic, who referred to Tuesday night’s presidential debate between Trump and Democratic nominee Joe Biden. “‘Will you shut up, […]
The first debates featuring Trump and Biden will be held on Tuesday at Case Western University and the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. They will be split into 15-minute segments, intended for a wide range of topics. Joe Biden’s deputy campaign manager Kate Bedingfield has answered Donald Trump’s demand for a drug test for himself and the Democratic presidential nominee before the upcoming debates on Tuesday. “Vice President Biden intends to deliver his debate answers in words. If the president thinks his best case is made in urine he can have at it”, she wrote. “We’d expect nothing less from Donald […]

Sputnik International https://sputniknews.com/us/202009261080582789-biden-compares-trump-to-nazi-propaganda-chief-says-prepared-for-lies-on-debates/ As the US November presidential election race between Democratic candidate Joe Biden and Republican rival Donald Trump intensifies, next week on 29 September, will see the two holding their first presidential debate. US Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on Saturday compared incumbent President Donald Trump with the notorious Nazi propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels, when interviewed by MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle. “I’m not sure anybody hasn’t already made up their mind they’re for Trump. But who knows. He’s sort of like Goebbels. You say the lie long enough, keep repeating it, repeating it, repeating […]

Fierce arguments have broken out on Twitter after Scotland’s First Minister Nicola Sturgeon laid out strict rules on household visits, in an effort to curb a rising coronavirus infection rate. Under the new rules effective from Friday, Scots cannot visit each other’s homes unless they are from extended households. Other exceptions include couples not living together, those in need of childcare and tradespeople. A maximum of six people from two households are allowed to meet in private gardens and public outdoor spaces. “We are once again at a tipping point. We must act to get Covid back under control,” Sturgeon said […]
Minds are made up about Kyle Rittenhouse, the 17-year-old gunman charged in the killing of two protesters in Kenosha, Wis. Graphic amateur video of the chaotic scene and early reports from authorities tell a partial story, and politics fills in the blanks. On the left, the suspect is portrayed as the embodiment of today’s domestic terrorism threat: A cop-idolizing wannabe militiaman who allegedly traveled across state lines to confront protesters with a gun he was not legally allowed to possess. On the right, the teen’s actions instantly were justified as self-defense, the natural end to “Democrat cities” letting radical leftists maraud […]
You knew this was going to happen. Speaker Nancy Pelosi told reporters on Thursday morning, “I don’t think there should be any debates.” Then she added, “I wouldn’t legitimize a conversation with him.” Anyone paying attention knew this was coming.

POTUS has offered no evidence to support his remark. US President Donald Trump suggested he would seek a drug test before his debate with Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, sharing the plan in an Oval Office interview with The Washington Examiner. Trump offered that he saw a sudden improvement in Biden’s debate capability during the primaries, following what the president characterized as earlier performances by Biden that were “so […]
A radical plan currently being debated by the government would see the British Army boost its air and cyber warfare capabilities while mothballing its armored fleet, according to a newspaper report. British defense chiefs have outlined plans to deactivate the Army’s Challenger 2 main battle tanks and Warrior armored fighting vehicles (AFV), as the costs of maintaining them have skyrocketed, the Times newspaper has reported. Costs aside, the armored fleet – which currently consists of 227 Challengers and 388 Warriors – has reportedly been deemed “obsolete.” Some in the military have argued that 21st-century warfare will rely on cyber capabilities, along […]
As the November election draws near, one thing is becoming clearer by the day. The media is absolutely terrified by the idea of Joe Biden debating President Trump. They’re afraid he is going to melt down on national television or have a serious senior moment, showing the country he is unfit to lead. Over the weekend, CNN suggested Biden skip the debates, now the New York Times is joining in. Breitbart reports: TRENDING: “Why Are You Going Out of State?

By Tony Cox, a US journalist who has edited or written for Bloomberg and several major daily newspapers. Media outlets from the New York Times to CNN to Newsweek have offered Joe Biden various reasons over the past several days to skip debates with President Donald Trump. None mentions Biden’s fading ability to speak coherently. A New York Times opinion piece Monday suggested that presidential debates should be scrapped altogether because they’ve “never made sense as a test for presidential leadership.” We didn’t need the debates to tell us that Trump had chosen to be the P.T. Barnum of American politics. […]
Joe Biden Campaign Chair Cedric Richmond joined FOX and Friends Thursday morning to discuss the current state of the Biden campaign.

A senator in Ohio has landed himself in hot water after asking an expert witness whether the ‘colored population’ suffered more than others from the deadly coronavirus, owing to inadequate hygiene skills. On Tuesday, during a meeting of the Senate Health Committee, Sen. Steve Huffman (R-Tipp City), who is white, asked the witness why the impact of Covid-19 has been worse on people of color than on white people. But he phrased his question in a way that can only be described as cringeworthy. “Could it just be that African Americans or the colored population do not wash their hands as […]
