Trump was retweeting this guy’s entire timeline a few weeks ago so I’d take what he says with a mountain of salt.

Jesus. Minnesota now is basically WI/MI/PA this time in 2016. We’re two weeks out and HOLY FUCKING SHIT Trump’s been trying to play in this state and we thought it was locked and it’s not.

the north was never gonna be a blowout in the trump era
btw, it’s absolutely maddening on twitter, bettors on my feed are insisting biden wins easy landslide (FL dems by 6+ IS FREE MONEY–no it’s not wtf), trumpers are insisting trump wins everything easily in a landslide (yeah they’ll win california too you god damn idiots)
I never really believed either was true. MN +5 if accurate is 4 points ahead of 16 results, which puts biden nationally at 6/7 which wins but not a blowout and definitely not safe is where I’ve kinda been at all along.
It’s circulating in right wing social media and such that Hunter’s laptop had videos of child porn or him molesting kids or something. But through the telephone game Hunter → Joe, because my buddy (who’s 100% voting Biden, straight Dems, etc) texted me to ask WTF the Joe Biden is a child molester stuff was about last night after a conservative NeverTrump friend texted him that she had to vote Trump because Joe Biden molested kids.
So it’s circulating to the extent that a liberal friend who’s sane heard it and felt it warranted asking if it was a real allegation, even though he was pretty sure it was bullshit.
while the replies are mostly Trumpers celebrating there’s also a few from sensible people which summarise as…
No link to an article - nothing like that on Politico like that
TX & MI don’t report party

In a fun coincidence, the ddale bot is also talking about that Paul Sperry tweet in the bot thread

WTF is going on with this thread today?
538 currently has Minnesota as Biden +7.5, right next to Michigan +7.9.
I mean, I thought it was bad juju with all the Vince memes and landslide talk recently, but people have whipsawed into despair pretty quickly.

I will admit that I’m on raging life tilt that we went from 88/12 to 87/13.

The part in quotes is actually from Politico, the rest I’m not sure where he’s getting it.
Any shift towards Trump will be seen as disaster because of the stakes. A Trump win is cataclysmic and I think we all realize that so any shift that direction at all is going to have that result.

For that reason, among others, Democrats are poring over early vote totals, circulating anxiety-ridden campaign memos and bracing for a long two weeks.

Despair is our natural state, we were riding high on good polling for a week though.

Who is this guy and why doesn’t he have a check mark?
That IBD tracking poll has it at 48-46. 2016 was 48.2 to 46.1.
What if we went four years of chaos, stupidity, evil and racism… and even in the midst of a colossally fucked up pandemic… Nobody changed their mind? Over a billion spent on ads, campaigning, etc… For nothing.
Alright guys I wasn’t worried before but now this looks like cause for real concern
