    Biden will work on downplayed coronavirus which will automatically improve the economy. The borders will be protected through technology rather than the wall. The second amendment is being used in polling places to intimidate voters. Biden will cut taxes for the middle class making less than $400,000. He can continue middle east peace negotiations. Trump with his corporate tax cut created the biggest deficit such that money is unavaible for coronavirus relief causing small businesses to go bankrupt. All that deregulation is not so good allowing to destroy our water and air making people sick. Conservative judges might limit liberties of Jews as well. Law Enforcement does not have the right to shoot anyone on sight. Fracking will be replaced slowly by switching to solar energy and by using electric cars and you are maybe supporting autocratic education. The rich have the money to pay their bail. Capitalism has become one sided by supporting the rich and not caring for the poor. I don’t want foreign natiions to interfere in our elections for either side.

    You are missing the point. Trump publicizes on his own his bad behavior and being proud of it.

    Wearing a wig without any covering, specially if it looks like regular hair, is an argument between the Shiltei Hagiborim and the Beer Sheva 19, Magen Avraham on SA O’CH 75,2 See the Sefer Hakeser Vehakavod Lechai Alomim.

    When anyone said masks were not required was because there was a shortage of masks for medical first responders. I don’t know that anyone said that social distancing is not required. The rioters were condemned by Biden. Trump condemned the protesters.

    Also, the mazal is not in his favor, as children are dependent on the mazal. Hashem added a heh to Avram and changed Sarai making their name Avraham and Sarah both becoming a different individual on whom the mazal has no control. The yud of Sarai was applied to Hoshea making his name Yehoshua bin Nun. According Rebbi Reb Heshel the shvo for the yud was taken from ben making it bin.

    common saychal, where is your common saychal? You said zero morals? Even Trump cares for his family. He did not drive off on purpose but was drunk. He should not have escaped. What did Trump tbe playboy do while married? Over twenty five accusations. If no smoke, no fire.

    It says, a person should pray not to get sick. Once a person gets sick ch’v, he needs special protection, zechusim to get cured. Besides prayer, we must do everything possible like wearing masks, washing hands and social distancing to protect ourselves from the coronavirus and then Hashem will help us. It is a mitzva of ushmartem meod lenafshosechem to protect ourselves from getting sick. If a person endangers himself, he will not be helped.

    When it comes to hakoras hatov intentions do matter. Moshe Rabbenu was afraid of Og king of Bashan for saving Lot and he was told not to be afraid because his intention was that Avraham get killed to marry Sarah.

    The Chezkuni has a very interesting pshat on above kashye in believing in Hashem. Vayachsheveho lo tzedaka means that Avraham considered it a favor for himself, thinking that he is not worthy of it.

    This judges are wrong. Not for nothing it says chesed veemes yekadmu panecha, Hashem places kindness before truth. When we have coronavirus, unexpected by the legislature, the law cannot be interpreted as written and allowances must be made in voting.

    According to the Woodward tapes, Kushner violated halacha by advising not to listen to doctors in April, where it says for Shabbos and Yom Kippur (SA O’CH 328,10 and SA O’CH 618,1) to follow the doctors.

    Toi, maybe you are crazy. I formed my opinion because of Trump’s behavior. I don’t think you would want your children to learn from his constant lying and general character. He has contributed to tbe death of thousands by downplaying COVID-19. see why to vote for Trump being a melech kasha kehaman https://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/trump-winning. He thinks he knows everything better than anyone else by firing his best advisors when they disagree with him. This is not
    Torah view.

    Read tbe Open Letter on Rav Shafran’s website implying to vote for Biden signed by him and others including Rabbi Emanuel Feldman previous rabbi of Atlanta, GA author of Tales Out of Shul, a hilarious account of converting his conservative congregants to orthodoxy.
