Two points is not massive, it’s a normal polling error. Yeah, obviously Trump can still win and make up this 10 point deficit. But it’s just not right to say the polls in 2016 were so wrong. Historically they were well within a normal margin of error. It’s why places like 538 only had HRC as like a 65-70 percent favorite to win on election eve.

Most of the 2016 polls were fine, it was the models that were shit.

We should talk about Quentin Tarantino’s best movies and perhaps even rank them from best to worst who’s up for it?

No clue. But to update, I commented on the post with basically what I wrote here. He has since deleted the post. Maybe my saying “if this convinces one idiot to get complacent and not vote than I’m all for it” was a mistake?

Marco Rubio stripped out a provision that passed the Senate Intelligence Committee 8-7 that would have required campaigns to report offers of foreign help in elections. They’re not even trying to hide it. They’re all in, as they should be. I fear Democrats are wholly unprepared for the moment. So easy to see the GOP declaring victory on election night, the media running with that narrative, and the facts meaning jack fucking shit after that.

On the flip side, a Biden presidency will allow them to cover the first ex-president to go absolutely batshit crazy. And that’s after they get to cover the not so peaceful transfer of power.

The GOP is about staying in power. Nothing else matters.

Guys… don’t look now but the bottom is about to fall out of the real economy and coronavirus death totals are about to explode. Stop asking yourselves if Trump can pull this out as though the slope of the line on every important graph isn’t getting steeper. He’s not going to pull this out. The question is knowing that what follows from that? I think that’s a much harder question. We’re in a very weird spot.

No I mean I get that. What I’m asking is how are the Republicans not named Trump not being raked over the fucking coals by the press over this vote? There’s literally no way to defend it.
Donald Trump does something crazy every two hours lol. The media has straight up not covered thousands of what would be very big stories in normal times since late 2016. Trump consumes all the oxygen in the room at all times.
