Next week’s US elections in 2020: Moment of ‘panic button’ for the Republican Senate
5. First 48-day VP election:
Former Vice-President Joe Biden said he wanted to elect his nominee no later than August 1 – which is not long!
Biden himself retreated from the previous quarterbacking about who was considered and who, well, no.
While he sometimes still offers praise for the most mentioned candidates – and his campaign has held virtual fundraising with politicians like New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham – the former vice president has tended to reject many political obstacles lately.
Which means things are becoming more serious.
4. How does the Democratic Party dance ‘Defund the Police?’:
What Democrats want to spend in Congress this week is about the legislation package they introduced last week aimed at reforming the police – from banning chokehold to building a national database of police violations.
“Nobody will fund the police. We can restructure the police forces. Restructure, re-imagine the police. That’s what we will do. The fact is that the police have a role to play.”
Which is politically the right place. Many people support law enforcement reform. Much less back is shaved completely.
The question before the congressional Democrats was whether Clyburn’s position on Sunday was enough for their party activist wing.
3. Trump and the road:
Twitter became a banana, showing Trump looking old and weak. Of course what Twitter does.
But then Trump decided to drastically strengthen his current profile – and make sure it became a much bigger story.
It’s hard to overstate the miscalculation here by Trump. Without his tweet, the video of him walking down the path is, perhaps, a little Sunday story. With that tweet, it is a BIG story on Sunday, with the potential to leak into the week that the President wants to focus on restarting his re-election campaign.
It was a political instinct that brought disaster.
2. The Trump campaign resumes:
It’s been the last few weeks of disaster for Trump and his party. (See below). The president hopes this is a week where things change, with everything leading to Saturday’s rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Meanwhile it has been tampered with (The rally was originally scheduled for Friday, June 19, known as Juneteenth, a day celebrating the end of slavery) Trump and his closest allies see the return to the campaign trail as perhaps something that can heal what upsets the political fate of the President.
But with soaring coronaviruses – in the west and southwest in particular – this week’s news coverage tends to focus, at least in part, on Trump’s policy of holding a huge general meeting at all.
However, there are no current plans to establish social distance at public meetings or wear mandate masks.
So yes, Trump is likely to get what he wants – a large crowd celebrating the country’s “transition to greatness”. But how much does it cost?
1. Press the panic button:
Late Saturday night, the Des Moines Register released a poll about the Iowa Senate race. And that was very surprising.
And that is t-r-o-u-b-l-e for the Republican Senate who hopes to maintain their narrow majority this fall.
Why? Because there are many seats that are seen by independent handicapers at least as fragile as Iowa.
Do the math: That’s nine chairs. In contrast, Cook judged that only two Democratic seats – Alabama and Michigan – were competitive. And when you think that Democrats only need to get three seats to win back the majority if Biden wins the presidential election (and four if he doesn’t), you can see why the Republicans have a very bad Saturday night (and Sunday).

Maestro de Braga is the first Portuguese in the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba.
Maestro Filipe Cunha, Artistic Director of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Braga, has been invited to conduct the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, as announced today.
According to a statement sent by O MINHO, “he will be the first Portuguese conductor to conduct this orchestra in its entire history.”
In addition to this orchestra, the maestro will also work with the Lyceo Mozarteum de la Habana Symphony Orchestra.
The concerts will take place on 4 and 12 March 2023 at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana.
In the words of the maestro, quoted in the statement, “these will be very beautiful concerts with difficult but very complex pieces” and therefore he feels “very motivated”.
From the very beginning, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 will be performed by an Italian pianist (Luigi Borzillo), whom the maestro wants to bring to Portugal later this year. In the same concert, Mendelshon’s First Symphony will be performed.
Then, at the second concert, in the company of the Mexican clarinetist Angel Zedillo, he will perform the Louis Sfora Concerto No. 2. In this concert, the maestro also conducts Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony.
“This is an international recognition of my work. An invitation that I accept with humility and great responsibility. I was surprised to learn that I would be the first Portuguese member of the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. This is a very great honor,” the maestro said in a statement.
“I take with me the name of the city of Braga and Portugal with all the responsibility that goes with it, and I hope to do a good job there, leaving a good image and putting on great concerts. These will be very special concerts because, in addition to performing pieces that I love, especially Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky, I will be directing two wonderful soloists who are also my friends. It will be very beautiful,” concludes Filipe Cunha.
