2024 US Presidential Election (Taylor's Version)

Oh, I think they’re pretty clear about this being transactional, where they get to make money in exchange for fronting the production costs of the debate. And they’re allowing simulcasting to make sure this arrangement is acceptable in the future.

People who want to do livestream commentary can still do so, they just can’t incorporate the CNN stream into their stream. I’ve had experience with alternative sports commentary where you just have to run the stream on a separate device from your TV.

This mainly feels like a bunch of right wing grifters complaining that CNN isn’t making it easy to push their narrative.

I do not understand why people think that the media outlets, which are for-profit businesses, would do things for reasons other than profit.

Biden has barely won a swing state poll done by anyone since February if you go through them on RCP.

What if you unskew the polls you don’t like?

The polling data is all over the place, but we still seem pretty fucked regardless.

so if the polls are off by 3% which they are every election then Biden wins WI MI PA and the election, they just need to be off in his favor and not in Trump’s. I wouldn’t really feel any better right now if he was polling at +2% in those states compared to -2%, staying within that margin of error is the most important thing.

Are these registered or like voter polls? There’s like a 3% swing for Biden with likely voters. Many Trump curious voters do not consume news. They just float around in the idiot sphere consuming whatever information and thinking whatever things idiots do.

I am filled with a sense of existential dread over this dumb debate tomorrow. Like, someone is queuing up the beheading video and you are gonna be forced to watch it vibes.

We’re all just watching to see if Biden makes some kind of campaign-killing gaffe.

How much of Trump’s dementia has to be on display for it to actually cost him at the polls?

I’m thinking a significant fall where he has trouble getting up or visibly shitting his pants.

I do think Biden could shiv him by calling him a criminal loser and Trump blowing up, probably ranting about Hunter, could be effective. Biden should also note that Milania, an immigrant, appears ashamed to be seen with him. (Biden should say “hi” to Jill and ask Truimp where Malania is.)

Trump has overperformed the polls both times.

Getting into a name calling battle with Trump is not really a solid strat imo. Trump is getting old but he’s practiced enough at ranting about thugs and rapists that he’ll come off fine and Joe…won’t.

There is no strategy to beat Trump. Nothing Biden can do results in any effect on trumps popularity.
