While Waiting for Biden's VP

Biden said that he would name his VP pick in August; this could be as early as tomorrow. We will be discussing it as soon as the VP is named.

On this last day of July, we can revisit the topic of Larry Hogan. I personally think that Hogan has done an excellent job protecting us from COVID. However, many have disagreed. Here is an article submitted by Jackie. Is Hogan really that bad?

Hahn on the Hotseat

The current FDA commissioner, Dr. Stephen Hahn, became the designated fall guy for Trump's outrageous claims about COVID. He got creamed on the ABC and CNN Sunday morning news shows.

• ABC: 'I can't predict when a vaccine will be available'
• CNN: FDA commissioner refuses to defend Trump claim

For the record, former FDA commissioner, Dr. Scott Gottlieb, provided the proper answers on CBS.

• CBS: Gottlieb says U.S. "right back where we were" at earlier peak of coronavirus outbreak

Do you feel sorry for Dr. Hahn? By avoiding the questions did he do more harm to Trump and will Trump fire him? What could he have done to meet Trump's approval?

Will Trump Drop Out?

Mike Pence has very visibly wore a mask when he visited Texas, while Trump continues to flounder. The polls, already showing him losing the election, are bound to get worse. James Carville is openly saying that it is more likely for Trump to drop out than for him to win the election.

So do you think the Republicans are preparing to replace Trump with Pence?

-------------------------------- Update 7/2/20 -----------------------------

James Carville is getting more vocal of the possibility that Trump may not run.

The next big fear - Dust

Now what! A big Saharan dust cloud is heading our way. It will mostly hit Texas and the Southeast but we may get some of it by next week. The dust may be a problem for those with respiratory problems. Oh, there is also a 100 degree heat wave in the arctic.
