I'd feel better if we could just skip the debates this year.  Trump's gonna say some excrement like "Pikachu is a slut" and then the media will be all "OMG WHAT DOES THIS MEAN WHY IS HE GOING AFTER POKEMON" for two months and BLM and COVID will be a distant memory by election day.

On one hand I would like to ignore the debates because there is zero chance of gaining anything positive from enduring it, but on the other hand I will have FOMO, and on a third hand Biden should avoid debates as much as possible so people can believe they're voting for "generic democrat" and not be reminded how shitty he is.

Yeah, he should shut his trap as much as possible because it only hurts him and Trump digs his own hole.

"geriatric democrat"  the closeted candidate.   Biden - Hide Him 2020.

Biden goes into the WH and starts out his presidency with his pedestrian at best "best days" in the rear view mirror.  Good chance he not long game-worthy at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. and that you could actually be voting for his running mate (who is???).    Trump turns me off on many levels - Biden concerns me on many levels.  Trump warts and all has his hands on the wheel for better or worse.  Biden it will be argued will at least surround himself with a "competent staff" vs. the Trump-fired merry-go-round roster, however the Biden scenario also translates to: unelected.  Looks like another 'can't bring myself to vote for either' election.  2016...2020....another pair of deuces....this is the best this country can come up with?  A narcissistic blowhard vs. a bumbling shell.  Great.

I don't give a freak what state you live in. Promoting the whole "neither candidate is worthy of my vote so I'm not going to bother" narrative when the choice is so freaking stark. Unless you're a full blown radical at either end of the spectrum it's a simple and obvious freaking choice and opting out because one of them is a bit suboptimal is bullshit position.

Your vote still matters because it's the message it sends. Popular vote may not decide elections but it's a common metric. You can make the argument that by not voting in a sure thing state you're sending the message you want to, but my problem with it is and has always been that by saying "I'm not going to vote because I don't like either candidate" you are popularising a rhetoric that will be absorbed and acted upon by people in states where their vote does make a difference.

Refusing to vote because Biden isn't ideologically pure enough for you is sending the message that you don't really give a freak if Trump wins, because you either think that the Democrats will be as bad as the Trump administration or because if you can't have exactly what you want you don't care what everybody, including people in much worse situations than you, ends up with. The first view is batshit and the second is downright offensive, IMO.

freaking vote.

people can harp on how horrible trump is all they want while ignoring the historical record of the democratic party fcking over the supposed constituents they claim to represent, fine, whatever. that doesn't change the fact that the dems are the reason why trump got into office 4 years ago, and they're the reason why we'll have him for 4 more years.

and before you jump me, i was just as much of a bernie supporter 4 years ago as i am now, and i voted for hilary in PA. my own anecdotal experience is that i knew of nobody else who was a bernie supporter who did not vote for hilary, so i don't know if that matters, but i am just one experience.

Step 1: vote out white supremacist
Step 2: primary "centrist" dem 4 years later, assuming he survives the process
Step 3: nominate and elect actual progressive

We don't have a single move solution here, but we have to work the one we have.

The Dems aren't the reason Trump won four years ago, voters not showing up to the voting booths are what got Trump elected four years ago. Those who don't live in swing states don't get a pass as far as I'm concerned.

Anyone who stayed home is complicit, don't care how comfortable the Democratic lead was, my own dumb derriere not returning my absentee ballot last year included.

Side note: the fun thing is that the Black voters of South Carolina are the first block that really helped swing the nomination to Biden.

Procedural voter suppression is going to be a contentious issue in November. Georgia’s state elections were an overpacked shitshow yesterday and DC’s last week were less than stellar with people waiting hours due to a lot of voting stations being closed.

It's really unfathomable to me, I've never spent more than about 30 min at the polls and that was for the 2016 general in the evening so it was expectedly crowded. Any other time I've voted since then I was out in under 7-10 minutes.

I just mailed my absentee ballot for NY's 6/23 primary so zero minutes for that one. But I don't hold the voters responsible for not getting it in earlier, it's unreasonable for them to have to endure that excrement to vote in person on election day.

Just for the record, Nate Silver never forecasted above 90% for Hillary, and was down to something like 65% right before election day. They had been writing for a while that it would be a close election, and while not quite a coin-toss, only had Hillary leading by 2-3% in nationwide polling (she won the popular vote by something like 2.5% iirc) and said the polling was even closer in a lot of swing states. I remember reading 538 and thinking it was going to be a close election, and then clicking to other news networks and felt like I was going crazy.

My local polling place had over a 2 hour wait for the primary. I said freak it and went back a few hours later. Same line.

They told people there was less of a wait at a place 1.5 miles down the road. I took a scooter there because I didnt feel like waiting. But it is insane to me that they disnt have a better system. And this is pre-covid.

Now, they HAVE to let people vote by mail. There is no good reason not to. But the Republicans will make excrement up as usual.

Not sure about that one. I'm not super big on historical dramas. I have a short attention span and they invariably have convoluted storylines revolving around 400 characters of varying degrees of relevance and incest, and I tend to lose interest pretty quickly.

Gents, pump the brakes and with all due respect, before you go "runaway-snowballing" with this: the 1st text mentions 'GOP relief' that Steve King is history and the 2nd text mentions 'GOP fear' (regarding the potential prospects of that racist lady garden).  My point being that any GOP or Dem party leader worth their salt (especially amid the current racially-sensitive zeitgeist) would want to bend over backwards to keep the 'party brand' free and clear of that type of person's history and in this case, the 'loose cannon' that comes with it. 

While I recall that GOP sleezebag in Alabama (forgot his name...had some pedophile baggage?), he eventually lost in a strong red state so, reading the tealeaves, the "margin for error" nowadays has narrowed and--color me naive--but the smell test is more stringent as well (Trump and Biden both notwithstanding).  If 'somehow I'm wrong' (ha) and this racist fuckbag does cop the GOP nomination, then they've stupidly made their own bed and turned their detractor's suspicions into fruition in the process and they deserve all the negative blowback that THAT would engender.  No party leader can be that stupid. jmho

Lastly, if you're gonna force-feed Nickleback on the land of the free & home of the J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets, then you Great White North hosers have to take Jon Bon Guido (i.e. Bon Guido a/k/a Bon Jovi).

Kentucky officials just announced that fewer than 200 polling places will be open for voters on Primary Day across the entire state, down from 3,700 in a typical election year.

What's more, Louisville's Jefferson County — which is home to the largest Black population in the state — will have just one polling place for 616,000 registered voters.

After the primaries isn't it fairly clear that Biden has the black vote more than locked up? And with the recent BLM movement I can't see anything getting the black vote more mobilized, especially an old rich white woman.

Maybe Warren excites the female vote. But considering she couldn't win her own state in her primary I wouldn't be so sure.

I think Bidens best bet is to get someone that will either fire up the female vote or get him a strong advantage in a key battleground state.

excrement, even when I voted for the primary this year, there was a 2-hour wait at my local polling place. Luckily, I could afford $15 round trip on a scooter to go a couple miles down the road to the next polling place. And that was pre-coronavirus.

If you use the logic that led us down this path, yeah she's a "logical" choice. Checks off a couple identity politics boxes, and liberals, ever obsessed with compromising, see her and think "she's black, but she also put people in jail, so she'll appeal to both sides!"

In '08 Biden got the VP nod because his presence would comfort two groups, the people uneasy about a black nominee, and wealthy donors.

In fact, pretty much every Dem VP pick in my lifetime has been varying degrees of awful. By comparison they make Harris look great. I may have to take solace in this if she gets the nod. I have my criticisms of her, but the historical bar is so, so low.

Trump isn't going to get any of the black vote, so he needs someone to draw as much of it as possible away from Biden. Kanye is a weird narcissist.

Wonder if he'll use "Slavery was a choice" as his campaign slogan?

My hope would be that most of the people who would vote for him would be the lulz voters who either voted Trump or Deez Nuts in 2015, and people who wouldn't otherwise vote but think it would be really fun to have Kim as First Lady.

Everyone assumes that if Kanye were to run (he's not), he would get black voters. Black voters aren't voting for a dude in a MAGA hat who said slavery was a choice. He probably has more white diehard fans at this point.

And now that he's a gospel artist, he actually might have a better chance to siphon off evangelicals, which would hurt Trump, not help him.

Regardless, I'm curious when the album is coming out, since I'm sure this is a publicity stunt.

Rapper Kanye West, who has been widely criticized because of his support of President Trump, reportedly told Forbes he has lost confidence in the commander in chief.

West's comments come after he announced he is running for president himself, despite having missed deadlines in several states to actually get on the ballot.

He insisted to Forbes that his run is not a publicity stunt and said he had no issue with the idea that his planned run could potentially take votes away from presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden and aid in the reelection of Trump.

"I'm not denying it, I just told you," West said. "To say that the Black vote is Democratic is a form of racism and white supremacy."

"I'm not saying Trump's in my way, he may be a part of my way. And Joe Biden? Like come on man, please," the publication also quoted West as saying. "You know? Obama's special. Trump's special. We say Kanye West is special. America needs special people that lead. Bill Clinton? Special. Joe Biden's not special."

“Trump is the closest president we’ve had in years to allowing God to still be part of the conversation.”

Quote
“Let’s see if the appointing is at 2020 or if it’s 2024—because God appoints the president.”

Quote
ON THE CORONAVIRUS CURE
“We pray. We pray for the freedom. It’s all about God. We need to stop doing things that make God mad.”

Quote
ON VACCINES
“It’s so many of our children that are being vaccinated and paralyzed… So when they say the way we’re going to fix Covid is with a vaccine, I’m extremely cautious. That’s the mark of the beast. They want to put chips inside of us, they want to do all kinds of things, to make it where we can’t cross the gates of heaven. I'm sorry when I say they, the humans that have the Devil inside them. And the sad thing is that, the saddest thing is that we all won’t make it to heaven, that there’ll be some of us that do not make it. Next question.”

Quote
ON DEVELOPING POLICIES
“I don’t know if I would use the word policy for the way I would approach things. I don’t have a policy when I went to Nike and designed Yeezy and went to Louis and designed a Louis Vuitton at the same time. It wasn’t a policy, it was a design. We need to innovate the design to be able to free the mind at this time.”

Quote
“A lot of Africans do not like the movie [Black Panther] and representation of themselves in…Wakanda. But I’m gonna use the framework of Wakanda right now because it’s the best explanation of what our design group is going to feel like in the White House.

Quote
ON HIS OTHER PRIORITIES
“Clean up the chemicals. In our deodorant, in our toothpaste, there are chemicals that affect our ability to be of service to God.”

My favorite part is when he tries to freestyle the Antidote for Racism and just kinda gives up halfway through.

Quote
ON THE NEED FOR RACIAL HEALING, AFTER GEORGE FLOYD
“Well, God has already started the healing/This conversation alone is healing and revealing/We all need to start praying and kneeling… another bar after that, but when a rhyme comes together I’m going to complete it, not inside the lines created by organizations that we know as our reality.

Understood Bo (and thx for your comments) that polling personnel would nix a "still living" (lol) cat's vote.  I was only offering up a "still living" reality existing within the realm of the current "voting mechanism" to be--in and of itself--eyebrow-raising.

  MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Cincinnati football coach Tommy Tuberville has settled a lawsuit filed by investors seeking to recover money lost in business deals.  U.S. District Judge Myron Thompson approved the settlement on Tuesday, according to online court filings. Details weren't released. The lawsuit alleged that a hedge fund Tuberville helped manage defrauded clients of more than $1.7 million. Devin Dolive, an attorney representing Tuberville, declined to comment.

But figuratively-speaking do those boats really make waves?  Whatever Trump's base is in Jersey shouldn't be nearly enough to beat  Biden nor the NJ Dem machine since Hillary easily won NJ 55-41%.   Add to that Covid & the BLM zeitgeist and imho Trump's not winning NJ.

I think I'm right in saying that the VP is considered an elected official as part of the Presidential ticket, and can't be replaced mid term at the President's whim - is that right? And if so, how is a VP replaced if they become President for whatever reason? Does the new President have free rein to choose, or do you have to have a special election?

The VP cannot be fired by POTUS, but can be removed due to impeachment, death, or resignation.

In the event that the President is somehow removed from office, the VP becomes the president and then has to nominate a candidate for the vacant VP office who must be confirmed by both houses.

Prior to the passing of the 25th amendment, the office would have remained vacant until the next presidential/vice presidential term began.

Facebook and Twitter on Wednesday took extraordinary action against President Trump for spreading coronavirus misinformation after his official and campaign accounts broke their rules, respectively.

Facebook removed from Trump’s official account the post of a video clip from a Fox News interview in which he said that children are “almost immune” from covid-19. Twitter required his Team Trump campaign account to delete a tweet with the same video, blocking it from tweeting in the interim.

In the removed video, president Trump can be heard in a phone interview saying schools should open. He goes on to say, “If you look at children, children are almost — and I would almost say definitely — but almost immune from this disease,” and that they have stronger immune systems.

Harris has the absolute worst supporters so I don't want it to be her out of spite, even though I'd personally prefer her over Rice. I think Harris is basically amoral and would go along with whatever line Biden lays down. She cosponsored M4A then backpedaled during the primary. I don't think she believes in anything.

I'd like Bass, she's good enough that if Biden won I'd pray for his death every day after inauguration.

I don't think Republican oppo on any of them matters. They're gonna lose their excrement over whoever he picks anyway. It's just up to Biden's personal preference and whether the goal is to double down on energizing "the base" or bringing in people who are not already 100% on board.

8+ more years down the drain baby

4 years of Biden/Harris followed by an automatic coronation for Harris as the 2024 nominee. I'm gonna get called racist for supporting not-Harris in the 2024 primary.

Or we just suffer 4 more years of Trump if this pitiful ticket can't beat him.

Hellworld.

4 years is a long time.  Who knows what happens.  Gotta get Trump out.  4 more years of Trump is way worse than a potential 8 of Bidenmala.  GOP might pull out a miracle and produce a competitive candidate in 4 years.  Probably not.

Kamala is a pure politician, but she's a great speaker, and hopefully she'll solidify some of the black vote and some of the woman vote. I'm not sure any VP would have fully satisfied the gung-ho Bernie or bust fans, other than Bernie himself, so this is probably a good play strategically. Unless they really try to continue to push the#Kamalaisacop narrative and it sticks.

In recent history she's shown she'll throw support behind something if it seems advantageous to her then will bail on it the moment it isn't.

If group A wants to reduce aid, and group B wants to maintain the level of aid, and their disagreement is causing no aid, group A is the obvious problem here.

You know you can't call me a partisan hack because I hate the guts of 80% of dems, but a spade is a spade here. This is what they do every time. They threaten to take something away, make returning it conditional on something bad, and then blame any objection for delaying the good thing.

Voter fraud certainly occurs.....at such a tiny, insignificant amount that it doesn't matter.  It will be the same this year.  There will be a small number of fraudulent ballots and people will blow it out of proportion. 

We aren't going to agree.  The postal service is clearly thriving and doing very well financially.  It didn't need any help before the mail-in ballot crap became a thing.  So no need to give them some extra funding.  The postal service doesn't serve any other purpose besides mail-in ballots.  That's all they deliver.  Mail-in ballots.

Does it really matter what Kasich says? I would have thought he could stand up there and read out his mom's pumpkin pie recipe for all the relevance his words have, it's his presence that is the important statement for them - avowed Republican can't support the ongoing calamitous administration. He can't fire up a base and enthuse young voters the way AOC can, so logically she should be the star of the show.

The only reason I can think of why they might be careful around her is that she will say things that Republicans can hook onto and use as "look, if you elect these people they're going to introduce death camps / force unborn babies to be lesbians / turn your guns into hammers and sickles", that probably shouldn't be seen as a bad thing but I'm not a campaign specialist.

If it doesn't matter what he says, he shouldn't be speaking.

OK. Of course it matters what he says, my point is that everyone broadly knows what he's going to say because he's already said it. He's not going to get up there and talk about his support for the Democrats because he's had a Damascene conversion and now believes that M4A and the total destruction of the Koch, Adelson and Murdoch empires are the key to a new America, he's going to say that although he has ideological and political differences with the Democrats he has faith in their respect for the Constitution and rule of law, and that isn't the case with Trump or the current incarnation of the Republican Party. He's going to say that it has been a difficult decision but he believes that the restoration of a functioning democracy is crucial to the wellbeing of the country and that only a Democrat victory in November will deliver that, and he's going to make a joke about how his dream is to be able to run against President Biden in 2024 as a Republican.

It's important and useful to say because it might help bring over some moderate Republican and swing voters, and because it enables the Democrats to counter the whole "hur dur Trump derangement" argument, so it's not an awful idea. It just isn't going to excite people, particularly young and disenfranchised voters, the way someone like AOC can. I agree with you that she should be the star of the show. TBH whether he gets longer than her or not I'll bet hers is the speech we'll remember, but then Kasich isn't there to talk to you.

I have no problem with Kasich speaking. The current goal is to win and defeat Trump. If Kasich can help, then the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Kasich is there to try to normalize Biden for Trump-hating Republicans who can't quite convince themselves to pull the lever for Biden.

AOC is there to try to appeal to the progressives that the party has kind of blown off by creating a Biden/Harris ticket. Granted, both Biden and Harris seem pretty malleable politically, so if progressive ideas continue to take hold in the party, I could see them leaning into that more.

If there was a year that ever were true, this would be the year

Four years ago, there were a significant amount of people that just flat out would never have voted for a Clinton. And Trump hadn't proven he was an awful president at that point (even though it was obvious he would be).

This year, that strategy can work. The goal either needs to be to drive the vote of young people and minorities, or it needs to be to try to pick off enough Trump voters in swing states, and either have Trump voters stay home, or have people staying home come out for Biden.

Relying on youth turnout to swing the election isn't a much better solution since young people tend to vote significantly less often. I do think that is starting to change though, even if it might not take root until 2024 or 2028.

Regardless, I have no problem with Kasich speaking. Is Kasich's presence going to be the difference between a progressive voting and staying home? I don't think so.

I love you Badger, but I'm with JE on this one.

No one needs to win your vote. Nor the vote of any single voter in the United States of America who leans even a bit left. You're either going to hold your nose and vote Biden (as you should while influencing down ballot) or stay home.

The people that need to be swayed by the convention, debates, speeches and TV ads are the folks who are on the fence or who are close enough to it that a nudge to the left will be enough to ensure Trump is no longer President by MLK day.

Anyone who didn't support Corbyn is not by definition a Thatcherite. This is exactly the problem.

All of the things you say were factors, but the biggest one was the self sabotage in the name of ideological purity committed by the Corbyn gang. If you want to see what a proper cross functional Labour Party looks like, Blair was the guy. He gets painted as the centrist guy and yet he still had people like Prescott as his closest advisers.

I have a degree of sympathy with the media complaint but Corbyn was too stupid to understand what the trap was and turn it around. Remain was the right battle but Corbyn didn't want it, a better leader could have dismantled the Tories on it. The sabotage was all his own.

Yes, but more specifically if one didn't vote Labour in 2019.

I haven't cast my vote in the UK since I left given I did so with the intention of never living there again, and I have not for one minute since leaving over ten years ago changed my view on that. It seems a bit wrong to be voting on the governance of a country I've intentionally washed my hands of.

That said, let's talk hypotheticals if I were to decide to vote over there. First, remember some key differences between the US and the Parliamentary system of government: in the UK and Canada, we vote for our local MP. Whichever party returns the most MPs gets to choose the Prime Minister. If the PM is doing a excrement job mid way through their term, they can be replaced with a new Prime Minister. Also, remember that both the UK and Canada have more than two parties so strategic voting is a thing.

So, if I were to vote in the UK I'm not sure which constituency I'd get to vote in. If it's where I last lived in the Docklands then it's Poplar and Limehouse, which despite being Canary Wharf and a bastion of big business is overwhelmingly Labour because just the other side of the A14 is Tower Hamlets, a huge council estate filled with poor immigrants. The Labour candidate who was elected and was never not going to be is Apsana Begum who is a Momentum member, so I would almost certainly have voted Lib Dem.

If I registered to vote at my parents' address then the constituency is very different; it's a rural constituency in the Midlands where the Conservatives have dominated since forever. There I would have voted Labour, even though the candidate came a distant second - she was a Remain-supporting moderate with actual credentials as a grown up. And anyway just look at that freaking apology for a Lib Dem candidate, who the freak is voting for that?

Three things: first, if enough people think their vote doesn't matter then eventually that won't be true, secondly the only way that this administration will accept defeat is if it's by such a landslide on both the EC and the popular vote it's inarguable, and third, even if your vote doesn't matter propagating the idea that it's OK to waste your vote if a candidate doesn't meet your exacting standards of ideological purity is dumb.

But then I genuinely think that some people would rather live in a society in which climate change protections, social support infrastructure and the idea of democracy itself is being dismantled for the personal gain of the corrupt few, because it's much easy to argue about why everyone else is awful from a position of self righteous integrity than to fix things with pragmatic reality.

I mostly agree, though at the same time, if you truly think a 3rd-party candidate is significantly better than Biden/Harris, and you're in a blue state, then do what you want.

That's how elections work in this country. You don't like it, and neither do I. We need more parties. But short of that, we have to take the best we can. Keep voting progressive in elections until things change but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater in the meantime.

JE contends that I'm not allowed to criticize the ticket either because I'll magically convince a significant number of people to not vote Biden, thus ushering in permanent fascism because I prevented Biden from reaching the arbitrary pop vote number to make his margin of victory large enough to be "convincing."

At a guess, Meg Whitman is there to provide the argument that the Democrats are not anti-business. Which will work fine if you just read that she's a former CEO of HP and don't bother looking at what a catastrophic job she did of it. I wouldn't trust her to run a lemonade stand, never mind a global tech company.

I may have strong feelings about her.

I agree that we can't get to the majority of Republican voters. But they don't need that. They need just enough to flip a few swing states.

The 2 ways to win (other than preventing voter suppression) are to make sure Bernie fans and the progressive left still turn out for Biden and picking off enough Trump voters in swing states to win. If they can convince some Trump voters to stay home or some Trump-haters that lean right to vote Biden instead of staying home, that is all that matters. Biden would be president of all of America, not just the left.

If Bernie had won, it would likely be a different strategy. But with Biden as the candidate, I think you can reach some people who typically lean right.

I think it's far more simple than that.

Just keep Biden from doing anything exceptionally/offensive for the next few months.

Probably not. I would have voted for any of the Dem nominees over Trump.  Biden isn't the one I would have picked, but he isn't my least favorite of the nominees either.

I knew Trump was bad, but I severely underestimated how bad. 

I see your point though.  Sometimes the better short-term solution leads to the worse long-term outcome.  I just think 4 more years of Trump is worse than risking 8 or 12 years of mediocre presidents.

I think it’s unlikely that Biden makes it through all four years as President. If he either dies or forced to resign within the first two years, Kamala is only eligible to be re-elected once.

However, neither the Republican or Democratic party was won the White House after an eligible incumbent either failed to gain or refused to seek the nomination for their party.

To be fair, I think Biden sees his victory in the primaries as a clear endorsement of his strategy - counting on voters who simply want a level of normalcy and across-the-aisle civility without having to think hard about policy in any meaningful way. And I think it's likely to be pretty effective, to be honest, even if I fundamentally disagree with it.

After the one-two punch of bloody Monday (the whole field dropping out to stop Sanders) and covid suddenly becoming real to Americans everybody just gave up on asking for anything better.

I mentioned it earlier in the thread, but Sanders signature policies had majority or plurality support among primary voters in every state through March, including all the states Biden won. The result was a sad combination of people not caring (or not knowing) what he stood for beyond "Obama's friend".

Why have Bernie deliver an 8 minute speech where he says vote for Biden on day 1 and then have the roll call where they are required to nominate him on day 2?

Lmao, people who defend their property from a violent mob, and a kid who did nothing wrong besides be in the wrong place in the wrong time are now turds.

And here you like to fashion yourself as some sagely, objective centrist.
They are turds as speakers at a national convention.  Most of them are turds in general also.   I'm not a turd, but I would be a turd as a speaker at a convention.

Where did the sage centrist part come from?  I don't even know what I am.

Defending property?  Most sane people would just call the cops first if they felt people were trespassing on their property or endangering them.  Instead they pull out weapons and ratchet things up even more.  What kind of idiot leaves their house to pull a gun on a mob?  It's less about right and wrong and more about stupid.

And I'm not defending those people for trespassing.  They were wrong also.

...anyway, here's some boring economics to cool things off

Quote
Top Biden adviser, and long-time personal friend, Ted Kaufman was seen in the Wall Street Journal warning that the debt run up by the Trump administration will seriously limit what Biden will be able to do as president. This is wrong big time, and it is the sort of silly thing that no one in a Biden administration should ever be saying.

The government’s ability to spend is limited by the economy’s ability to produce, not the debt. If the government spends too much, it will lead to inflation. When we have a period of high unemployment, as is the case now and almost certainly will still be the case if Biden takes office in January, we are very far from hitting the economy’s inflation barriers.

It takes some very deliberate head in the ground economics to argue that we are somehow limited by the size of the government debt. Japan provides a great model here. Its ratio of debt to GDP is more than 250 percent, more than twice the current U.S. level. Yet, the country is seeing new zero inflation and has a 0.03 percent interest rate on its long-term debt. The interest on its debt is near zero, since much of its debt carries a negative interest rate.

The idea that we would not address pressing needs, like climate change, child care, and health care because we are concerned about the debt burden is close to crazy. As long as the economy is not near its capacity, there is zero reason not to spend to address these priorities, and even when it does approach its capacity, we can impose higher taxes on the economy’s big winners over the last four decades.

Part of the problem is the incessant need to dumb things down to rope in the significant size of the population that is functionally stupid, and persuade them to vote for you. Case in point: the constant comparison of sovereign debt and government economics to a household budget. Conservatives are particularly bad for this as it suits their agenda better, but liberals are not immune.

I would love a party to one time have the balls to say "you know what, this excrement is complicated and a lot of you are not smart enough to understand it, and a significant proportion of those of you who are wouldn't really care to anyway. So here's what we're going to do, when we get elected we're going to spend on X and Y and Z and we're going to fund it through a mix of taxation and debt, and you need to decide whether to vote for us based on a) do you trust us and b) do you think the things we're planning to do with the money are things you want. If the answer to both is yes, vote for us. If it's no, don't. But stop asking us to explain it how it's going to work and stop listening to idiots on cable news stations, of any variant, who try and do so, because it's a waste of everyone's time."

Obviously it would be a disastrous strategy and it would lose in a landslide, but it would be the only truly honest way to campaign.

Really other sciences don't have schools of thought? I'm not talking about extreme outliers like global warming where you have a fringe looney toons minority. But things like gender fluidity or sexual orientation or when life begins. Yes these are all highly polarized political issues (which I can give a freak about).

But the fact that what's a freaking man and what's a woman is debatable and contested?

Obviously all sciences have varying levels of objectivity, but I think if you look deeply you can find schools of thought in any area. Some are just more pronounced than others

But essentially his view is if Biden acts more moderate he can win over some Republicans and ideally convert them to the left for years to come.

If correct, this would significantly move the country to the left and result in more people with mindsets like Bernie Sanders to rise to political prominence and enact things like M4A in the future.

Basically he's strategising to get people and views that you'd agree with more power

I don't think it matters anymore.  There can't be many left that are on the fence and will be affected by pointing out lies.  You either know he's lying or you know it and are voting for him anyway no matter what he does.

The real (expected) disappointment is that so few GOP congress members have the guts to stand up to him and go against him.  Or they do it in such a pathetic manner that they might as well not.  They have chosen career preservation over ethics.  The other side isn't innocent either.

So there's that one, which was made 2 months after the Lincoln Project video on about the Walter Reed trip, which asks if he suffered a stroke instead of declaring that he had a series of mini-strokes. Why escalate it?

Interesting.  May just be a shift in how people are voting, not overall numbers. 

Quote
The GOP has historically dominated North Carolina mail voting, but this year the people asking for the ballots are not generally Republicans. Democrats requested more than 326,000 ballots, and independents 192,000, while only 92,000 were sought by Republicans.

The Democratic lead in mail ballots isn’t only in North Carolina. In Maine, 60% of requests for mail ballots have been made by Democrats and 22% by independents. In Pennsylvania, Democrats have requested nearly triple the number of absentee ballots as Republicans. In Florida, where the GOP once dominated mail voting, 47.5% of requests have come from Democrats and 32% from Republicans.

(UPDATE: Further complicating Fox’s mixed messaging on the use of anonymous sources in reporting, the network’s senior natsec correspondent Jennifer Griffin on Friday afternoon confirmed The Atlantic’s reporting. A former Trump official told Griffin that Trump had said aloud that soldiers who went to Vietnam were “suckers,” asked “what’s in it” for vets, suggested “wounded guys” in a military parade would be “not a good look,” and did not want to lower flags for McCain’s death.)

I understand you generally come from a partisan point of view politically-speaking but with all due respect, the idea that an 'anonymous source' should be considered 'good money' is (in this case and imho) a pretty one-sided, arbitrary assumption.  What about 'their' (Fox) anonymous sources?  You gonna give these same anonymous sources the same Good Housekeeping vetted seal of approval?  I wouldn't just like I wouldn't The Atlantic's.

I have no doubt they listed the reason as rain for ground MC1. It’s bullshit and there was clearly a way to get personnel there since two generals were able to make it.

He can want to use the military as a propaganda piece and still have little regard for the people who serve in it. These are not mutually exclusive concepts. In fact they actually go quite well together.

Reporters aren't producers nor are they the ones who determined the scheduling that day.

Fox News did her dirty by not letting her present her findings foe longer than 30 seconds while the counter arguments are given infinitely more air time was a bullshit move.

Reporters and colleagues denouncing someone's calls to have her fired just because she reported something he didn't like is a completely different matter.

One was a programming decision to keep pushing the narrative the viewer base wants to see. The other was fighting against a move that if it happened would have severly damaged the integrity of the press.

The former vice president will also pledge to take executive action during his first week in office to direct the federal government to buy American goods and support American supply chains in their procurement processes, his campaign said.

Not in contravention of Article 13 of the USMCA, one hopes, Joe.

Quote
Over a week of interviews in early September, I heard baseless conspiracies from ordinary Americans in parking lots and boutiques and strip malls from Racine to Cedarburg to Wauwatosa, Wis. Shaletha Mayfield, a Biden supporter from Racine, says she thinks Trump created COVID-19 and will bring it back again in the fall. Courtney Bjorn, a Kenosha resident who voted for Clinton in 2016 and plans to vote for Biden, lowered her voice as she speculated about the forces behind the destruction in her city. “No rich people lost their buildings,” she says. “Who benefits when neighborhoods burn down?”

The only people protesting in the streets with any kind of support from Biden or the Democrats were BLM, so either you equated BLM protesters with brownshirts or you think that the far right agitators who have been arrested for rioting were under the control of Biden. Both seem like pretty strange positions.

One far right agitator gets arrested equates to the entirety of the destruction we've seen in places like Kenosha at the hands of the far-right. Ok.

Absolutely nothing about the video from the first shooting shows him acting in self defense against deadly force. Joseph Rosenbaum threw a plastic bag at This little excrement and yelled, "freak you," that's what he died for. Unarmed, with five gunshot wounds.

The second part has someone tackling him and someone else Anthony Huber hitting him with a skateboard as he tries to raise his gun. The skateboard to the back is questionable but he shot a guy who was already running away. Absolutely no part of opportunity, capability, or intent was present when he pulled the trigger on Anthony Huber.

This still hasnt been proven that it was a plastic bag for starters.

This description bolded is proof positive that you have absolutely zero interest in being objective and its utterly laughable that Kyle Rittenhouse is supposed to let some psycho brain him repeatedly with a skateboard while cops are apparently not allowed to use force after someone resists and then goes for a knife. Lol, ok.

And the action of murdering two people will invoke the reaction of Kyle Rittenhouse being sentenced to life in prison or death at the hands of the state.

I'm finding it very difficult to see how hitting someone in the back with a skateboard warrants being executed as you are running away.

I don't know the intricacies of the Wisconsin definition for deadly force but I do know that if I was on watch and someone hit me in the back and ran away, I'd be in a cell in Leavenworth if I shot him twice in the back.

Time out, Green Bay.

Trump supporter?  Yes, you do need to see the wider context before you make sweeping assumptions.  One sided, extremist partisanship may be de rigueur in JOville but least your memory fail you JE, I've already been scolded & lectured here for saying I wouldn't vote for either, i.e. "neither are worthy."   Trump's a bloviating windbag prone to lying (newsflash: this just in) ....and the guy overuses the word "incredible" while self-aggrandizing to boot.  Feel better (wink)?  That said, as far as I'm concerned, if you (i.e. anyone of 'them') suck then you suck no matter what your political stripe.  I do find a heavy partisan factor in play here which is all well and good (JO's your ball and while I thank you for it, 'politics' are the least of the reasons why I'm happy to have stumbled upon this Jet oasis).  If I were to be pigeonholed I guess you could call me a centrist but that's really not the case since I harbor some very (very) lefty sentiments...fwiw 

At the same time I've become jaded; jaded at the once adverbial "who, what, where, when"  journalistic tenets being cast aside and replaced by advocacy (op-eds have their place but not on the upper right hand column of page one).  The time-honored journalistic standard of form, the "inverted triangle" I no longer see as a standard practice when it come to the blue bag-encapsulated "paper of record" NYT that hits my driveway every morning at 5:00.  I'm now rambling as assuredly this is boring so I should put a wrap on this, however I do respectfully take somewhat strong exception to you summarily pigeonholing me as some died-in-the-wool Orangeman zealot.  And at the same time, so what if I mock what strikes me as a soup-dribbling (temporary) 'prop', so what?  I see Uncle Joe as a golden calf - a temporary prop -  serving the ultimate goal of any political party: control of the Executive Branch.  I said here months ago: Kamala Harris will be president in four years (it was met with crickets).....out.

Trump supporter?  Yes, you do need to see the wider context before you make sweeping assumptions.  One sided, extremist partisanship may be de rigueur in JOville but least your memory fail you JE, I've already been scolded & lectured here for saying I wouldn't vote for either, i.e. "neither are worthy."   Trump's a bloviating windbag prone to lying (newsflash: this just in) ....and the guy overuses the word "incredible" while self-aggrandizing to boot.  Feel better (wink)?  That said, as far as I'm concerned, if you (i.e. anyone of 'them') suck then you suck no matter what your political stripe.  I do find a heavy partisan factor in play here which is all well and good (JO's your ball and while I thank you for it, 'politics' are the least of the reasons why I'm happy to have stumbled upon this Jet oasis).  If I were to be pigeonholed I guess you could call me a centrist but that's really not the case since I harbor some very (very) lefty sentiments...fwiw 

At the same time I've become jaded; jaded at the once adverbial "who, what, where, when"  journalistic tenets being cast aside and replaced by advocacy (op-eds have their place but not on the upper right hand column of page one).  The time-honored journalistic standard of form, the "inverted triangle" I no longer see as a standard practice when it come to the blue bag-encapsulated "paper of record" NYT that hits my driveway every morning at 5:00.  I'm now rambling as assuredly this is boring so I should put a wrap on this, however I do respectfully take somewhat strong exception to you summarily pigeonholing me as some died-in-the-wool Orangeman zealot.  And at the same time, so what if I mock what strikes me as a soup-dribbling (temporary) 'prop', so what?  I see Uncle Joe as a golden calf - a temporary prop -  serving the ultimate goal of any political party: control of the Executive Branch.  I said here months ago: Kamala Harris will be president in four years (it was met with crickets).....out.   



Cool story, bro.

Now go back and look who I was replying to.

I used the word gibberish and you followed it up using the word gibberish as well so that's where I rashly got my wires crossed.

You're right, you were replying to mj2sexay, mea culpa - sorry.




I speak gibberish - I had no problem with it.

  what's been mildly amusing are the Freudian slip "Harris Administration" tweets by Kamala herself floating around.
A Trump supporter mocking Joe Biden for speaking gibberish is peak transference strategy.

(Also I need to see the wider context to determine how much that's actually gibberish.)

"the guy who murdered someone was actually a leftist" in the context of discussing far right agitators stirring up trouble at the protests does clearly suggest that there was only one person who was murdered, and thus only one person doing the murdering. Language matters, as you know better than most.

WALLACE: You have repeatedly criticized the vice president for not specifically calling out antifa and other left-wing extremist groups. But are you willing, tonight, to condemn white supremacists and militia groups and to say that they need to stand down and not add to the violence in a number of these cities as we saw in Kenosha and as we've seen in Portland? Are you prepared to specifically do that?
TRUMP: Sure, I'm prepared to do that. But I would say almost everything I see is from the left wing, not from the right wing. If you look, I'm willing to do anything. I want to see peace.
WALLACE: Then do it, sir.
BIDEN: Do it. Say it.
TRUMP: You want to call them? What do you want to call them? Give me a name, give me a name, go ahead — who would you like me to condemn?
WALLACE: White supremacists, white supremacists and right-wing militia.
TRUMP: Proud Boys, stand back and stand by. But I'll tell you what: Somebody's got to do something about antifa and the left. Because this is not a right-wing problem — this is a left-wing problem.
BIDEN: His own FBI director said ... antifa is an idea, not an organization. Not militias.
TRUMP: Oh, you gotta be kidding.
BIDEN: His FBI director said that.
WALLACE: We're done, sir.
BIDEN: Everybody in your administration.
TRUMP: When a bat hits you over the head, that's not an idea. Antifa is bad.

Your perception is your own. It's ok, even if he was mediocre at best and downright awful at times last night. He didn't show well in the first debate with Hillary either.

Anyway, two things strike me as funny as excrement re: this thread;

1. The idea that the Proud Boys are some sort of neo-nazis, or that the question itself was even asked in good faith considering the "very fine people" line in terms of glorifying white supremacy or some excrement is an easily debunkable lie. The fuckin transcript of that press conference is the transcript, its available for anyone to see. Bonus points considering he also overtly denounces white supremacy which is something he's currently being accused of not doing.

2. The telling of the Proud Boys to "stand back and stand by" causing some of the less enlightened and more brain damaged to lose their excrement in fear while there are multiple cities that have been freaking destroyed at the hands of leftist political violence. HAHAHAHAHA you have to be joking.

Though again, the idea that the Proud Boys are any sort of neo-nazis is flagrantly false.

Eh, they may not officially promote white supremacy but while they may not go around goose stepping and attempting to annex the Sudetenland of a Friday night, I'm willing to bet that the Venn diagram of Proud Boys members and people with far right and white supremacist sympathies is pretty significant.

And even putting that aside, any organization that promotes chauvinistic and religiously intolerant attitudes as part of its purpose for being, and includes people like McInnes and Spencer as its proud alumni, is pretty distasteful and inappropriate for the President of the United States to be be promoting and supporting.

The organization consists of a bunch of right wing, racist cunts. Anyone who wants to be a part of it but somehow isn't a racist is the exact type of person the government had in mind when they decided that the question after, "Do you harbor any thoughts of overthrowing the US government?" should be, "Do you belong to any groups that harbor thoughts about overthrowing the US government?" during a security clearance background check.

You're most certainly a member of NAMBLA.

Genuine question, at which points did you feel Trump was awful last night? 

There were multiple opportunities in which rather than attempt to steamroll Biden he could've sat back and let the stupid excrement coming out of that old codgers mouth marinate (the man literally tied Barrett's nomination to women having to pay more than men for certain medical procedures, the example he used being PREGNANCY), but Trumps hubris is such that he had to go in and be the bully in control. It didn't play well at all, he looked like excrement. He didn't come off particularly prepared to me and if he didn't know going in that it was going to be a debate against both Biden and Chris Wallace, that's on him and whoever is prepping him. 

His answers explaining the supreme court confirmation and validity of doing it now, on what critical race theory actually is when being espoused by the likes of people like that segregationist/racist piece of excrement Ibram Kendi and the stupid "I brought back football!" throwaway ranged from cringy to infuriating.

The organization consists of a bunch of right wing, racist cunts. Anyone who wants to be a part of it but somehow isn't a racist is the exact type of person the government had in mind when they decided that the question after, "Do you harbor any thoughts of overthrowing the US government?" should be, "Do you belong to any groups that harbor thoughts about overthrowing the US government?" during a security clearance background check.

There is literally zero truth to show that they're racist. freaking aye I know the NPC insult is tired out, but it really is the same old excrement.

You can drop it in the mailbox, but some people are paranoid about the Postal Service and whether it will get lost in the mail, so they just take it to the source. I just put mine in the mailbox because I'm not worried, but why take away options?

In addition to sending their votes via the US Postal Service, Texas voters can drop off their completed mail-in ballots at multiple satellite locations so they immediately and securely reach the county clerk.

Ah I see, if they don't march in lockstep with your worldview, they're bigoted and racist even though they're actually people of color who might have experienced and know racism a little better than you. Forget about actually submitting what makes them racist, because that information doesn't exist.

Big props to the BLM Northern Utah leader that actually met with them yesterday to denounce this idiocy that they're white supremacists, I have no doubt she was met with a slew of obnoxious white guys ready to drop an "ACKSHUALLLY" on her because its totally not racist when they label people Uncle Toms. Which interestingly enough happened to Tim Scott yesterday for like the millionth time.

So this is literally Joy Reid's line of thinking re: Scalise getting shot.

In other words, again, you parrot the same demented mindset and shitty outlook that any freaking psycho on blue check twitter, etc.

I barely read and didn't quote the rest of your bullshit because I don't give a freak. You're dealing in projection, I'm dealing in your actual words, as written on here.

The problem is none of the progressive candidates were ever actually viable. Bernie doesn’t have much support in the south and has even less in middle America. He also spent most of his Senate career making it as difficult to work with for the Democrats as he did for the Republicans.

It was bullshit that the DNC spent two elections trying everything they could to bury him in favor of a moderate candidate but when you spend as much time as Bernie did pissing off the part whose nomination you are seeking, you’re going to make your life that much more difficult.

He would have done better service to DemSoc politics by backing a younger Progressive and frankly this entire freaking country would be better served by the Boomers in office and the electorate at large realizing that it’s time that GenZ and GenY/Millenials need more representation in government.

Also freak Pence and his points on Harris as an AG. If Kamala was a Republican candidate Pence would have been beating off to her arrest and incarceration demographics enough for an extra half hour of self-flagellation in the closet, before he and one of his male aides gets on a phone call with her to explain how she belongs at home.

Nice projection because you're about to vote the very definition of a corrupt prosecutor.

The fact is, this administration is way ahead of the challenger in terms of criminal justice reform, its not even close.

I don understand why you think I had any support for the Obama administration doing it or why the Obama administration doing it would excuse the massive expansion of the practice under Trump.

Best case scenario, BEST CASE, is that Dr. Amin was allowed to go completely unquestioned when over-treating due to a horrific lack of oversight on the part of ICE and an insane level of greed to overcharge the gov’t for medical services but nothing about ICE or this administration's reputation for cruelty deserves even that much of a benefit of the doubt.

I definitely don’t understand why you think that you can effectively split up responsibility two pieces of legislation that were both spearheaded by bipartisan coalitions into convenient partisan credit without looking like a Trumpster POS but here we are. There’s also the fact that the First Step Act was not introduced by the White House and was also initially opposed by Trump but I guess we can just conveniently ignore that part.

Trump and Biden to take part in separate town hall events instead of a presidential debate

NBC News confirmed on Wednesday that it will host a town hall with President Trump on Thursday evening in Miami, moderated by Today host Savannah Guthrie. It will air at 8 pm ET – the same time as former VP Joe Biden's town hall event on ABC. The two events will be held on Thursday in place of the previously scheduled second presidential debate.

That video is just full of cut off statements. Biden said he would phase it out and create sustainable jobs for those people before they completed the phase out.

Unlike my more simpleminded counterparts who apparently wanted a three year term for a religious theocrat back in 2016, I won't be rushing to the streets in the hope my party impeaches that stupid old codger for a much more dangerous, corrupt cop of a Vice President who's antithetical to my values in almost every way.

I don't view Biden as the threat so many "on my side" do, but I also think he's in office for two years tops before he literally gets deposed by his own party.

Any traditionally red state that swings blue this cycle will not be because people are enthused by Biden - it will be because people find Trump reprehensible and don't trust him with the handling of the coronavirus. It's the number one issue across most demographics in polling, and Trump would likely be cruising toward reelection if he had handled it in a way that people felt was responsible. I doubt Texas will flip, but if it does, it will absolutely be in spite of energy policy, not because of it.

Even by polling though, many of the pollsters that actually weren't far off on 2016 (despite whatever rating Nate Silver wants to give them), are projecting at worst Trump down 5 nationally and up in key swing states.

I don't trust them either.

Yes.

The polls, the polls, the polls.

Was just absolutely nothing learned from 2016?

Yes - which is why reputable pollsters adjusted their population weighting for education.


Speaking of which, quotes from November 6, 2016 from noted verified Twitter user Nate Silver:

"Clinton has a 64 percent chance of winning the Electoral College in our polls-only model and 65 percent in polls-plus, putting her somewhere in the range of being a 2-1 favorite. At the same time, it shouldn’t be hard to see how Clinton could lose. She’s up by about 3 percentage points nationally, and 3-point polling errors happen fairly often, including in the last two federal elections
...There’s also reason to think a polling error is more likely than usual this year, because of the high number of undecided voters. In national polls, Clinton averages about 45 percent of the vote and Trump 42 percent.
... public polls — specifically including the highest-quality public polls — show a tight race in which turnout and late-deciding voters will determine the difference between a clear Clinton win, a narrow Clinton win and Trump finding his way to 270 electoral votes."

So, second lesson, Nate Silver/538 is still pretty good at reading polling data.

I understand why people don't trust polls, but they're still useful tools, especially when taken in aggregate.

As I look at it again, PA really is the big one.  You can pretty much give all the toss-ups to Trump, but if he loses PA, he loses.  Biden can lose PA and still have a good shot. If Biden wins any one of FL, AZ, OH, NC, or GA, Trump can have PA and still lose.

I don't agree.  He needs PA.  Most polls show him down 6-8% in MN and NV.  I know, polls.  But I think that's too much, even if the poll is off a little.  If it were 3-4%, I could see that being possible.

So today my wife and I both completed our paper ballots (which we requested and received well ahead of time) and she dropped them off at an early voting location. Dropoffs don't have to wait in the big line, she was out in 5 minutes and we didn't have to "risk" mailing it. The line she bypassed was incredibly long.

My mom went to her early voting location and it took about 20 minutes.

My friend who lives in Canarsie went yesterday with her elderly father and it took them about 2 hours.

So it varies wildly by neighborhood, some locations have been tasked with serving over 100k, others only 10k.

Honestly I think the biggest factor is the social distancing requirements, it wouldn't look nearly as bad in most places if not for that.

I'm just north of NYC (10583, Westchester County).  This past Sunday the early voting lines were not to be believed so my better half went online (West. Co. Board. of Elec.) and requested ballots which arrived today.  Filled the ballots out, folded and then placed inside an envelope that had to be signed (for signature comparison purposes) dated it, sealed that envelope and then placed it inside an (also provided) mailing envelope.  Affixed a stamp and then hauled it down to the local P.O. - all things considered, this do it yourself approach was painless.

You'll only be satisfied when it was the other way around.

I don't know what it is where this place thinks people should be able to charge at police officers with deadly weapons with impunity, but its pretty fuckin wild.


Charge is a great word for someone walking slowly towards anyone. The whole point since before George Floyd was that Cops shouldn't have the right to kill people who have committed no actual violence at their own discretion.

Cops can be murderers. These ones were.

There is a Russian-based hacker group currently attacking US hospitals with ransomware attacks. People have actually died because systems were locked down.

The FBI suspects that same group to ramp up hospital attacks and take aim at the election next week as well.

Can't wait to hear about the Russian hoax in a few weeks. Or the more nightmarish scenario where the current president, if he loses, claiming it was all due to massive interference and what we need right now is stability from the federal government. Rudy attempted to remain NYC's mayor under a post-911 aftermath stability guise after Bloomberg won.

I didn't mean that Favre was putting it in play, but I think it's possible the campaign is reaching out to high profile individuals who might have sway in key areas because they think it's within their grasp and want a nudge over the top. Also Biden is rallying in WI too, so it's simultaneously good he's not taking it for granted like Clinton in '16 but it also makes me think they're at least a little concerned about losing ground there.

Everyone seems to be banking on Wisconsin being the state to decide the winner and is going balls to the wall.

I wonder how much pull Bert has after bailing on the state and bad-mouthing their new god at first? I mean, he went to Minnesota and was successful, that's gotta count for something.

Speaking of which, Texas’s highest voter turnout was in 2016 with 8,969,226. As of today there have already been 9, 009,850.

In local (for me) news, DC businesses have started boarding up their windows in preparation of civil unrest on election night.

Yup. Pennsylvania and Florida are likely the two most important states to 'decide the winner' - but Trump probably needs both of them plus either two from Minn., Wisconsin, Arizona, or North Carolina, all of which are currently "lean blue" states according to polling. He ought to be going 'balls to the wall' in at least five out of six of those states, with the possible exception of Minnesota as too much of a reach. And also trust none of Ohio/Georgia/Iowa/ME-2 go blue. Definitely within the realm of possibility, but the campaign needs to be firing on all cylinders across multiple states.

I was reading an article earlier about how any slim chance the Dems might have of taking Texas starts with Harris County having an absolutely unprecedented turnout - minimum 1.5M votes cast. They hit 1.34M yesterday which is already a record, they've got some hotshot young lawyer running their election program and he's introduced things like 24 hour voting stations so that people working shifts can vote when it's convenient for them.

I think it's still an incredibly long shot that the Dems take Texas, but it really does feel like it could be in play.

Ignoring post-election challenges (which I'm 95% sure will happen, even if it's a landslide), in my opinion, Trump has to win ALL of the following close states to get to 270:  PA, AZ, NC, GA, TX, FL, and OH.  He's just too far down to win MI, WI and MN.  He can win without IA.  Like Belichick, I will never write Trump off until he has no pulse, but I just don't see that happening.

Texas has shattered its voting record - 9.6M votes cast so far vs 8.9M in total in 2016. Let's say that they finish on 10M, how many of those extra 1.1M voters are going to be voting for Trump?

I'm sure it's part of it, I know a lot of tech companies have been making that move and Texas is becoming something of a tech hub. My last employer was HQed in Plano, technically the company was based in Canada but Plano was the biggest office and most of the C-suite were based there. I'm sure Abbott was very happy to welcome the additional revenues in, maybe he wasn't thinking about the effect all those West Coast pinkos would have on the state's electoral attitudes. Maybe he thought that they'd immediately trade in their Prius, lattes and Birkenstocks, for a truck, a gun and a pair of cowboy boots. (Full disclosure: I fully intend to buy a pair of proper cowboy boots the next time in Texas.)

I often ask myself the same thing.  Who, after not voting last time, decided that Trump has convinced them with the last 4 years?  I'm sure there are a few people that just didn't get around to voting last time that would have voted for him then.  I really think it'll come down to not IF, but are there ENOUGH conversions to flip it.

- Polls realized 2016 mistakes in under-sampling non-college-educated voters (Trump voters) and corrected for them

- Biden has a larger lead in the polls than Clinton had, even with these corrections

- No last-minute Comey surprise to sway voters

- Nowhere near as many undecided voters remaining for Trump to convert like in 2016

- Covid is getting much worse at the worst time for Trump

The lazy answer is to say "but the polls were wrong last time" and this is the same as 2016.  It isn't. Biden voters are just terrified to be confident because they were burned last time.  Understandable, but it isnt the same.

I realise that it's a fun and easy trope for conservatives to use given liberals and progressives are generally far more inclined to prefer a brokered peace in the Middle East rather than backing the expected winner, and I accept that in some corners support for the Palestinian right to sovereignty and peace and not being killed for their land has spilled over into a general opposition to the Jewish community, but being opposed to the actions of Jewish settlers on the West Bank and the Israeli government, and your governments' support for them, does not equate to being anti-semitic. I have a Jewish friend who is opposed to the actions of the Israeli government, does that make her anti-semitic as well?

Omar was right to call out AIPAC, it's a pernicious group.

Using the dual loyalty argument was a pernicious statement, it's classically been used by antisemites for exactly the reasons antisemites use any rhetorical argument.

Clarification: I do not think Ilhan Omar is antisemitic. I think she said something ridiculously stupid. She's proven before to own up to her verbal missteps and that is what I consider this blunder to be.

Now considering this is someone that's had no problem zero'ing in on peoples physical characteristics (though I don't recall him ever doing that on the basis of a disability unless you consider being fat or looking like Carly Fiorina as some sort of handicap), I don't really hold anything against or blame others who don't want to see it that way, but this whole moral posture of how "that should've ended it" is dubious at best.

Maybe. I think the losing side will attempt to drag this out for weeks, maybe months. If it’s really lopsided that might be hard to do. If Trump wins, the Dems will claim Russian interference. If Biden wins, Trump will try to claim there was voter fraud/illegitimate votes or some BS like that.  If it all hinges on a state or 2, who knows.
Trump will attempt to cut off counting all the mail in votes through the courts if he's ahead in key states. No Russia conspiracy needed.

From what I've read, once polls close, some of the close states will skew blue to start with since some of the states will have already processed mail-in ballots ahead of time and can submit them, which will be more heavily blue votes.  Then they will head towards the other direction as the in-person votes come in, which will likely be heavily GOP.  In the states that don't start processing mail-in votes until after the polls close, it'll head back towards the blue side again.  Crazy situation this year.

Florida was never in play and any polling site that said it was is either intentionally burying their own data or the available data coming out of Miami-Dade, or was just stupid in how they operate. I'll give Politico credit for seeing this coming. For Nate Silver to say its unexpected is a laughable indictment on his analysis.

Arizona, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin better opportunities for Biden to flip. Trump has a better shot at flipping Nevada and Minny.  excrement, I was going to make fun of the optimism about Texas on here but I'm admittedly starting to sweat a little bit.

I still wouldn't, I checked 2018's margins right after that and Biden seems like he's performing at or below Beto just about everywhere reporting so far.

Oh, Bernie would have been screwed in Florida, but my point was that no matter who the Democrats ran, the GOP would try to brand them as socialist. It stuck on freaking Biden, who has been in office forever and clearly is not a socialist.

While having no doubt that there are those who outwardly said "Biden is a socialist" or some such variation because the GOP sucks at messaging.

The widely spread charge that I saw was that the Biden of 2020 isn't the Biden of 1985 and while not being a socialist, would be easily swayed by the hard left both because he's an incoherent old man and because he's malleable.

hes won arizona, his lead is increasing in michigan and wisconsin as they continue to process early ballots that they legally couldnt start counting until after polls closed.

nevada is close, within 10k votes, but less than 70% reporting and the 2 biggest dem counties, clark and washoe, still have 15% to report so that will go up likely.

nc and ga are both within 100k votes with 94% reporting, so its possible but doubtful for biden to take those

Seems like Biden will at least get to right at 270.  I really didn't think those tiny congressional districts would matter, but they did. It's gonna be a while before all the votes are counted, and then there will be some sort of nonsense from Trump dragging this excrement out in the media and courts, but ultimately I'll feel much better when they call MI.  I will say, I was very wrong about how close this thing was.  But in the end, depending on what happens in PA, the final electoral vote may turn out roughly what we expected, it just got there in a nail-biting fashion.

Who in their right mind would defend Olberman's unconscionably racist rant?  At the same time how does that give anyone the right to attach my handle to Olberman's racist tripe?

Wait, so my 'stranger status' makes it all well and good?  Look, if I did know you personally then it would make perfect "friends busting chops" sense.  I joined this board (in good faith) well after the "inner circle" left TGG however I did so because I saw (and see) JO as the only NYJ-related site worth its salt; one offering the best take on the Jets, on music, on miscellaneous shlt in general including politics (however mono-crazed it gets at times).  That said (while admittedly belabouring the point)[bite me Heismn], I gotta say the racist Olberman=delavan connection pissed me off.  Fwiw...done.  And now that you "know' where I'm coming from: I hope your dog dies.  j/k..sort of...  : -)

edit: back to election 2020...
Calm down, man, wasn't trying to offend you or anyone, and I definitely wasn't trying to imply you were racist. I've met most of the remaining people on this board in person except for you (I think). I was making a stupid joke that MJ was ripping people on this board for what Olbermann said, when none of us said it or defended it. I like some of what Olbermann says, but he usually takes it like 3 steps too far, and this time, he took it like 30 steps too far.

This is exactly what Bo said before the polls even opened. The mail in votes are going to heavily favor Biden while the in person votes would lean more towards Trump. Most states didn’t start to count their mail in and drop off votes until the evening are there are more mail in votes to come for the ones that were postmarked for yesterday but not yet delivered.

This was extremely predictable. This was always the plan.

- Delay mail-in voting by undercutting the postal service (check)
- Have Republican leaders make it so swing states can't count mail-in votes early (check)
- Question the validity of mail-in votes that are counted later, despite the GOP forcing them to be counted later (check)

This was predictable days, weeks and months in advance, as this guy did https://twitter.com/Mikel_Jollett/status/1322917284029980673

Quote
... because of Trump’s Electoral College advantage, which he largely carries over from 2016 — it wouldn’t take that big of a polling error in Trump’s favor to make the election interesting. Importantly, interesting isn’t the same thing as a likely Trump win; instead, the probable result of a 2016-style polling error would be a Biden victory but one that took some time to resolve and which could imperil Democrats’ chances of taking over the Senate.

You're right, this is completely unexpected, and 538 has been blindsided!

If anything this shows that every polling place in the country still hasn't learned enough from Ann Selzer, the best pollster in politics according to 538 in 2016, who looks to have nailed Iowa to within a percentage point yet again.

I don't think Bernie would have faired much better, he doesn't have the charisma ti swing in the moderate Dems. Warren might have but I think having Bernie lead the charge on the progressive wing of the party actually stagnated their growth. Haven't ng someone like Yang out in front or even early rounds Kamala might have done better. Once AOC turns 35 the field is going to look very different.

Gideon ran a hollow, plastic campaign based simply on being a Democrat in a state that Biden was going to easily win. Despite Biden winning, and a Democrat being reelected in rural, conservative Maine 2 for the House, a lot of people voted for Collins because Gideon seems like an even more shallow politician. 

Shenna Bellows was a stronger candidate who grew up in rural Maine, lives in rural Maine and is more progressive - but sat on the sidelines to let a 'safer' candidate win an almost uncontested primary with the strong financial backing of the DNC. Surprise of surprises.

I don’t get the second half of your sentence.

But this is why I’ve always been annoyed by the electoral college. Supposedly our votes matter, but in reality once a candidate has a majority vote in any state any additional votes for a candidate is useless.

Theoretically we could have a situation where Biden wins the popular vote by 5 million votes and loses the electoral college if trump swings back any of the currently Biden leading states. I know that’s what’s always happened and what’s always been possible, but man it’s crazy to see it potentially play out before our eyes

Quote
A source close to the White House said it's becoming apparent that GOP officials are beginning to lose patience with some of President Trump's behavior as he baselessly claims fraud is robbing him of the presidency.

Trump is "bleeding GOP support," said the source, who described the President's complaints as an "ambulance chasing routine."

The source went on to criticize the Trump campaign for leveling charges of voter fraud in Pennsylvania.

Pretty sure I haven't ever claimed Salon to be anything but partisan hackery, which is why I've told you and then proven that neither I nor anyone else has used it to argue or prove a political point on here. Given you've been gracious enough to accept that The Federalist is the same in the opposite direction, can we agree to my original point that you using it isn't any more acceptable than me using Salon would be?

(FWIW I'm under no illusions of a republican majority that includes Romney, Murkowski, Collins, etc).

That's an interesting point that I hadn't really given any consideration to, that the moderate wing of the Senate majority might behave a bit differently if there's a President Biden.

That's an interesting point that I hadn't really given any consideration to, that the moderate wing of the Senate majority might behave a bit differently if there's a President Biden. It's one that will undoubtedly unite you and Badger in revulsion, albeit for different reasons, so at least you'll have an ally there!

They'll do whatever they think helps them get re-elected.

They're not going to raise minimum wage, they're not going to "expand the ACA" or support a public option, they're not going to vote for any environmental regulations that might lower anyone's 4th Q profits by a tenth of a percent, they're not going to support anything to alter the current makeup of SCOTUS, etc.

However they may be open to the idea of privatizing Social Security and then patting themselves and Biden on the back for "saving" it.

Right, and exit polls this year are even more screwy than usual. If it's a traditional exit poll then we know that it likely isn't all that representative given the party line approaches to pandemic caution, and the LGBT community in particular has a degree of caution when it comes to infectious diseases.

I'm not saying the number is wrong per se, I'm just saying that I'm struggling to trust any kind of polling numbers this year.

Don't quit your day job, psychoanalysis isn't your strong suit.

Purely a hobby, so no worries there. Like correcting people's classifications; psychoanalysis is the study of an individual's mindset and the motivations behind their behaviour ("mj2sexay votes for Trump because he has shares in bronzer manufacturers"), whereas socio-analysis is the study of the motivations behind social group behaviour ("gay white men vote for Trump because they control the bronzer industry").

Trump basically has to sweep the field, only allowing Biden one state, and that state CAN'T be PA.

Biden needs to take any 2 states (or PA) and he is the President. If Nevada would count faster then that could be locked in, since I believe everyone expects that to come in for Biden. I also get the sense that Nevada is counting the least number of ballots of the 'critical' states.

For the sake of avoiding post election ridiculousness, I hope Biden wins PA, GA and NV. If he just holds in AZ and NV, and wins 270 - 268, then Trump will raise all kind of hell and people will listen. Despite the fact that Biden has the popular vote by nearly 4 million votes right now.

Sounds like the PA ballots received up to 3 days after election day won't be enough to change much, even if by some miracle Trump wins any battle over them in court.

Quote
Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar says she believes late-arriving mail ballots – which are the subject of ongoing litigation and could be invalidated later by the courts – probably won’t decide the outcome in the state.

The big question: How many of these ballots are there? About 10,000 of them were received on Wednesday across the state, an Allegheny County official told CNN, based on information from the governor’s office. The deadline is tomorrow.

There is an ongoing dispute about late-arriving ballots in the critical battleground state. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court previously ruled that ballots postmarked by Election Day, or with ineligible postmarks, that arrive by Friday should count. The US Supreme Court allowed that ruling to stand after deadlocking 4-4 on two requests from Republicans to intervene.

“From what we’re tracking so far, you know, counties are reporting anywhere from, smaller counties report from zero to some larger counties reported about 500 ballots received the day after Election Day,” Boockvar told CNN’s Jake Tapper on Thursday. “So, you know, that’s not that many really, so unless it is super close, I don’t see them making or breaking this one way or another. In the meantime, we are counting every ballot.”
A source involved with the canvassing in Philadelphia says they estimate there will have 1,000 of these late-arriving mail-in ballots received by the Friday deadline.

These segregated ballots have not been counted there yet. Officials in Allegheny County, which includes Pittsburgh, told CNN that they had received around 500 late-arriving ballots since the polls closed.

You can do math. Good for you.

The most pertinent part regarding your shitty little narrative (one you spew as you actively make racist jokes and hurl homophobic epithets only to insanely blow it off as the fault of Trump)

Quote
Perhaps more importantly, the media continues to be wrong about why Trump is popular, and about which people like him. Unable to admit that a Democratic Party held hostage by liberal arts graduates who write their preferred pronouns on their name tags might be out of touch with the working class voters who traditionally vote blue, many cable news talking heads settled on any number of alternative explanations: from Russian interference to lingering, perhaps resurgent, racism throughout the U.S. (CNN's Van Jones called it a "whitelash" in 2016.)

Trump, though appears to have improved—albeit modestly—his totals with minority voters, including and especially Latino voters. The narrative that Trump's divisive rhetoric about foreigners and immigrants renders him completely toxic to minority voters just doesn't match the reality. Indeed, the results thus far suggested that the racial gap—at least for Latinos—is shrinking, and class and educational attainment are becoming more salient considerations than race.

Your narrative is excrement, and I have no problem calling you, among others, excrement for acting on it in the manner you have towards people who you otherwise demonstratively have a lot in common with aside from political disagreements about electing a class of people who wouldn't pee on either one of us if we were on fire.

No one ran off Pope. I was repeatedly talked down by the other mods from banning him because I wasn't prepared to let him keep posting his racist bullshit, instead I simply removed every post of his that was person of color this and jew that. He left here because his entire reason for leaving TGG and coming with us was that he wasn't allowed to say that crap there, and thought that because he chucked us a few bucks when we first set up YDKF he had carte blanche to say whatever the freak he wanted, and then got upset that we wouldn't allow it either.

None of us know one everyone on here and I have no idea how many posters on here that I haven't met are black, asian, hispanic, martian or freaking whatever. Even if the answer is none, I don't care. I wouldn't stand for it in my house and I wouldn't stand for it in my local pub and I'm not going to stand for it here, and I'm glad he's gone. It has freak all to do with whatever his politics might be, no one ever suggested that being a racist queynte is exclusive to your team.

Good.

The point, as you're well aware, is that it isn't just who hears or reads that excrement. It's that it's not OK to normalize and accept it. I'm old enough to have grown up on football terraces hearing it sung and shouted by thousands in unison and thinking it was OK, and even joining in before I was smart enough to understand why it wasn't. We live in a different world now though, and the time for being quiet and letting excrement go is gone. I can't change the world, but I can do my bit for the tiny corner I occupy - online and in person. If it ends up with throwing hands and it gets me a punch in the nose more than I give then I'm old enough and sufficiently past giving a freak to not care, I'm no longer prepared to live with the thought that I let excrement go for the sake of my own easy life.

The military top brass have already testified before Congress that such a possibility is not for the military to solve, which is the answer that I as a private citizen would want to hear.

Unfortunately, ratings and money will follow him.  It's kind of like Howard Stern when he was on radio (except Stern isn't a piece of excrement).  He got huge numbers not because of people liking him, but people wanting to hear what he'd say next.  Someone will put him on TV.

That narrative and Claire McCaskill calling transgender rights a campaign liability are two of the most disturbing things I’ve heard from the Democratic Party side and the former is a direct refusal to listen to the block that delivered this election.

It puts a rising star for the Democrats into a room of Republicans who are afraid of her while at the same time doing Pelosi a huge favor by getting a thorn in her side from her own party out of the way. In the most cynical light this theory works.

Mariposa County, AZ update has Trump closing .2% of the lead, although it looks like his pace isn’t enough to overtake Biden or trigger a recount.

142K votes left to count and Biden leads by 44K. Trump would have to win the remainder by almost 2:1, which seems fairly unlikely.

Can he pardon himself if there are no actual convictions? I think the precedence set up by Nixon tells us that he would have to resign and have Pence pardon him but I’m way out of my league here.

Seems as though it's debatable if he can do it at all.  I guess he could invoke the 25th Amendment and then have Pence pardon him.  Not sure if he can pardon himself for future crimes.  Seems unlikely, but with Trump, you never know if he'll try.

I think it would be inadvisable. He could only pardon them (and arguably himself) for federal crimes, but I think it highly unlikely that Biden's administration would go after them because it would keep the Trump family narrative alive. Pardons are by definition an admission of guilt, so pardoning for something he's not likely to get prosecuted for seems like a not great move.

Yes, Andrew Yang, unquestionably the most naturally intelligent person who ran during the primary process of 2020 (Trump included) reduced himself to "clumsily parroting RW talking points" because...

Couldn't be that he authentically believed what he's saying and understands that when a minority of voters still make up 68 million you shouldn't do everything you possibly can to disenfranchise them (abolish the filibuster, the EC, etc etc.) and take positions that demonstratively a little less than half the country finds extremist, nevermind the moderates in your own party.

I'm a big Yang fan. I agree with his general point on the perception of the democratic party, and the dems need to figure out how to message better to people in rural areas. I don't love the demonizing the "coastal elites" part since people on the coasts and in cities are still your base, and those votes SHOULD count the same as votes in other areas, even if they don't because of our stupid electoral college
Title: Re: Election 2020
Post by: ons on November 06, 2020, 11:47:17 AM
The solution to the problems that Yang identifies is nation-wide ranked choice/preferential voting and an elimination of both primaries and the electoral college for presidential elections. Democratic party is inexorably linked to the image of cultural elites and identity politics in the minds of at least 40% of the country, for better or for worse.

Diminishing the power of both parties and forcing candidates to appeal to broad ranges of voters based on policy is the only structural change that matters. Not that I'm holding my breath, but Democrats suddenly fixing all the problems wrong with their party isn't going to cure political polarization.

It doesn't seem very democratic.

The point of the implementation of the electoral college was for the election of president to be indirect rather than direct. The exact proportion of votes not being equal is the point. Whether that's justifiable is a different thing.

A good excerpt I've seen before with regard to this indirect election even today: "We are the United States of America, and our states—starting with the original 13 colonies—are separate entities. It is understandably unacceptable to states with smaller populations to have their affairs decided by other states simply because more people live there. Suppose there were a United Countries of Earth. Would we like the idea of China (population 1.439 billion) and India (1.380 billion) running the show? Or would we want a leveling factor?"

The EC is supposed to be representative of the fact that the US is a union of *states* and is supposed to reflect the will of those states, not each individual. It's meant to increase the representation of rural areas with a lower population to try to get their interests represented.

I do think there's a good argument that it's outdated - the US has moved away from being a union of states that act more individually to acting more like a single country with a single market in the last 100 years or so, since around the New Deal + 17th amendment. That does lend more credence to the direct election idea but I'm not so sure that would be fairest either, especially with more and more people living in urban areas vs. rural. Even 250 years after the EC was created, there is some credence to making sure the interests of ruralites are overrepresented in such a national election for the same reasons such a thing was originally proposed especially with that divide even wider than when the original proposal came.

Does that mean the EC is perfect and requires no edits? No, I think if every state switched to a system like ME and NE things would be more fair. The winner-takes-all model of it certainly seems to be flawed, at minimum.

I believe I may have alighted upon the thing that would have made the difference for Trump and the GOP. Instead of pissing off Neil Young and Springsteen and the Stones everyone else whose music he used without asking and then got told to stop, he should have just used this at every rally. The chorus is seriously so perfect and the elephant theme just completes it:

The point of the implementation of the electoral college was for the election of president to be indirect rather than direct. The exact proportion of votes not being equal is the point. Whether that's justifiable is a different thing.

A good excerpt I've seen before with regard to this indirect election even today: "We are the United States of America, and our states—starting with the original 13 colonies—are separate entities. It is understandably unacceptable to states with smaller populations to have their affairs decided by other states simply because more people live there. Suppose there were a United Countries of Earth. Would we like the idea of China (population 1.439 billion) and India (1.380 billion) running the show? Or would we want a leveling factor?"

The EC is supposed to be representative of the fact that the US is a union of *states* and is supposed to reflect the will of those states, not each individual. It's meant to increase the representation of rural areas with a lower population to try to get their interests represented.

I do think there's a good argument that it's outdated - the US has moved away from being a union of states that act more individually to acting more like a single country with a single market in the last 100 years or so, since around the New Deal + 17th amendment. That does lend more credence to the direct election idea but I'm not so sure that would be fairest either, especially with more and more people living in urban areas vs. rural. Even 250 years after the EC was created, there is some credence to making sure the interests of ruralites are overrepresented in such a national election for the same reasons such a thing was originally proposed especially with that divide even wider than when the original proposal came.

Does that mean the EC is perfect and requires no edits? No, I think if every state switched to a system like ME and NE things would be more fair. The winner-takes-all model of it certainly seems to be flawed, at minimum.
You make some fair points, but why should rural interests be overrepresented compared to non-rural interests? Why are they more important than someone in a city?

But the electoral college right now doesn't even do that. If you're a rural Michigan, Pennsylvania or Georgia voter, your votes are still overridden by the cities. 49.4% of the Georgia population might want Trump, but they get 0% representation in the electoral college because 49.41% of the population wants Biden. That isn't fair either.

I agree that if we want to keep the electoral college, it should move to a more weighted system. But as of now, the electoral college isn't fair to anyone, and it is not the will of the states. It's mostly the will of a couple swing states.

freaking awesome - I will miss those pull no punches quips vs. the faux altruistic 'graphics' that's sure to follow



The funny thing if you don't see what a circlejerk this is. You guys literally ran off Pope and Delavan who aren't exactly Trump supporters.
mj, no one ran me off.   Someone had used my 'delavan' moniker as an inferred non de plume for Keith Olberman who had just stepped on his dick with a reckless comment containing unseemly (racist ) undertones.  I merely called them on it (giving context, and even finishing with a joke [however tasteless]) but no matter, they then went full-Karen indignant telling me to chill. My point: some folks are not going meet you halfway even when you have the best of intentions--you suck and that's that (wink).  You once told me "we probably don't politically agree on 99.999%..."  and while that's probably true (true I'm nooo fan of Trump), I'm not going to dodge/deflect your (if well-intentioned) comments with some summarily dismissive, pejorative non-sequitur (e.g. pffft).  I'm now bloviating (a la Big Blocker of TGG infamy) so suffice to say, I've been just sitting on the sidelines eating cyber popcorn reading the "breaking news: this just in!" entries, the "of like mind" tweets, the "us good - you evil" swipes, etc. 

The election's over, Biden's won and  "that's the way it was..I'm Walter Cronkite, thank you and good night."  Recounts?  Will not reverse diddly-squat. Lawsuits?  Who in their right mind think any motion's going to have real 'legs'?  It's all been said...and nothing's changed.  Biden/Harris are in - sure as sin. 

Sidebar: you referred to a guy named John Fugelsang.  Check out his parent's background (both mom & dad).  Former nun?...former Franciscan Brother?...lol....what the freak?  So many questions...before, during or after they cashed in their vocational chips did they start slapping bellies?    Any "nuns" I came across 'breaking vows' were usually at some masquerade party and named Kevin.

I agree that if we want to keep the electoral college, it should move to a more weighted system. But as of now, the electoral college isn't fair to anyone, and it is not the will of the states. It's mostly the will of a couple swing states.

It weights rural interests in a similar way to how the Senate does due to the number of votes per state and the number of small states, that are almost always entirely rural states, get overweighted. If you're a farmer in California that doesn't really work, but it does work to favor interests of the rural more than direct votes as a whole. That's the whole reason this argument even exists.

And even then the interests aren't wholly partisan - of the smallest, say 10 states, the split between Republicansand Democrats in the Electoral College has been about equal, and slightly favors Biden this year, too. Plus even now, with the mathematical advantage small states theoretically have, they don't really get campaigned in unless they are truly heavily swing states, and even then it's not particularly much compared to the Floridas, Ohios, and Pennsylvanias.

I get that the EC being winner-take-all, as I said, is flawed, which is why I think it can use some tweaking as a system. But if federalism and being a compact of states matters it makes more sense to do it in a similar way. If that USA is officially dead and gone, then doing it one-person-one-vote makes more sense. Depends on your conception.

The idiocy and bigotry that runs rampant in this place as you celebrate voting and electing someone who literally ran on higher taxes and giveaways to foreign entities while being the architect of the singular most racist piece of legislation since Jim Crow, and a prosecutor that literally withheld Brady material to gain a conviction over innocent people.

Enjoy it. Assuming the result stands, unlike most of you I won't go on a four year tantrum, screaming not my President and looking to any idiotic twitter feed (especially the Lincoln Project LOL), because I have not faith, but the certainty that this term is going to be a failure similar to that of 08 which resulted in a swath of Republican gains across the country. The only hope at staving off this reality was taking the senate in such a number that you could actively impose one-party rule in this country. Thankfully, that fate has been spared.

I have absolutely zero issue with continuing to wait this out, but provided again that this result holds, I look forward to two years of obstruction before taking the House back.

It weights rural interests in a similar way to how the Senate does due to the number of votes per state and the number of small states

For me, that's the exact reason to get rid of the EC - there is already an incredible structural advantage given to rural states in creating and instituting legislation at the federal level. Rural states have their protection in the Senate, their voices are disproportionately heard in the most important legislative body in the country. The electoral college is redundant. Not only is it redundant, but because the President and Senate are the only people involved in the nominating and approving of federal judges, that means all three branches of government disproportionately represent a minority of the population.

I was born in 1989 - in my lifetime a Republican nominee for president has won the popular vote exactly once. Despite that, they've been in office 15 out of 30 years (counting Bush 1), and put 7/11 (5/9 not counting Bush 1) new justices on the SC. Regardless of the original intent, the results subvert the principles of democracy - that the majority of the population should slowly shape most of the laws of that guide the country with careful checks put in place by the minority.

We need to identify the employee at Four Seasons Landscaping who took that call, realized what was going on, and then kept a straight face while booking the parking lot for the President of the United States of America.  We need to make a movie of his life.

He's gonna come out with all sorts of evidence really soon. He's just losing all these lawsuits all over the nation to really make the numbers go up when he does release it.

You just wait. He's got so much evidence he dosent even know how to release it. The press conference at the prestigious Four Seasons Total Landscaping was just a test to see if you guys were really ready for it to come out.

You aren't yet, so the evidence he has(and there is so freaking much of it you guys) will stay locked away, waiting for the best time to release it to really hurt Biden, not in any of these court cases around the country.

Putting this on me or Trump supporters is like saying every BLM member agrees when someone references the Haitian revolution.

I'm honestly not going to get angry with the rest of your comment considering it was made on the basis that I somehow condone the last thing that little excrement said, but this idea that this is transferrable to supporters of someone with JEWISH GRANDKIDS, or that there isnt an easily identifiable equivalent of anti-semitism from the left is freaking ridiculous.

My CNN colleagues looked into 50 of the names on a viral MAGA list supposedly showing 14,000 Michigan cases of ballots being cast in the name of dead people.

Result:
- 37 are dead, no vote cast
- 5 are alive and voted
- 8 are alive and didn’t vote https://t.co/2qvoVmRI3N

I asked before the election, what physically happens when Trump doesn't concede, keeps flooding the courts with lawsuits for the next 2 months, and doesn't agree to leave on inauguration day?  He certainly won't concede and he doesn't care what the law says or what every previous loser has ultimately done.  He doesn't care if the election results are ultimately certified.  He's gonna sit there in the oval office until someone pries his fat derriere off the seat.

Seems unlikely it would come to that, the lawsuits are going to get resolved one way or another over the next few weeks and assuming he doesn't get anywhere with them Cohen is probably right - he'll go to Mar-A-Lago for Christmas and just not bother coming back.

In the amusing hypothetical situation of January 20th coming around and he's sitting behind the Resolute Desk with his arms crossed and lips pursed in his standard sulky child mode, at noon those Secret Service agents work for President Biden and will presumably remove anyone trespassing on property where they are not authorized to be.

Would apply the above to the below - by the time 'anyone noticed' things will have settled down and lawsuits and motions will have fizzled out...

Right. It's not like his or his team's involvement would make the bringing of a worthwhile bill to fruition, so the fact that they're just not bothering to involve themselves at all feels like they're moving towards getting out. I don't think anyone expects him to concede, but if he just fucks off and stops doing anything that would be a big step in the right direction. Just spend the next two months in Florida playing golf and stay out of everyone's way.

One of the many, many bad looks for Gideon is that a Democrat won in the deep red, extremely rural, House district in Maine. He first won in 2018 by mobilizing grass roots support and actually worked to win over independents, and maintained a reputation as someone who cared about rural Mainers. Maine is a state that is happy to vote for people of any party if you just do the work to reach out to people.

Also, Gideon didn't even have to worry about any weakness from the left because the Green party candidate was literally running on a ranked choice - Green Party First/Sara Gideon second campaign. Gideon had so much open room politically and so many resources that she wasted.

She just ran a campaign tailored for a base of voters/donors who lived out of state.

Amusingly presented.   Reporters worth their salt employ the "inverted pyramid" when writing a lead, namely to describe which aspect of the story – who, what, when, where, why, how – is most important.  Instead, here the reporter attempts to emotionally appeal to the reader by beginning the story with schmaltzy imagery vs. the facts, e.g "yesterday, douchebags gathered at the house of...to protest alleged election fraud....."

“I’m gonna tell you what I really think of Donald Trump: This man is a pathological liar,” Cruz said. “He doesn’t know the difference between truth and lies. He lies practically every word that comes out of his mouth, and in a pattern that I think is straight out of a psychology textbook, his response is to accuse everybody else of lying.”

“And I say pathological because I actually think Donald, if you hooked him up to a lie detector test, he could say one thing in the morning, one thing at noon and one thing in the evening, all contradictory and he’d pass the lie detector test each time,” he said. “Whatever lie he’s telling, at that minute he believes it, but the man is utterly amoral.”
