Speaking of polling...538 breaks polls down to "registered voter" "voter" and "likely voter". I understand the RV and LV designations. Does anyone know the definition of polls they designate "voter".
Drunk and stupid is no way to be remembered but it is an easy way to forget.

69% approve of Wolf’s handling of the coronavirus, while 25% disapprove, and 6% said that they don’t know, leaving Wolf with a 44 point net approval rating. Just 44% of Pennsyvlanians said that they approve of Trump’s handling of the coronavirus, while 51% disapproved, and 5% said that they don’t know, leaving the president 7 points under water. There is a 51 point net approval difference between Wolf and Trump on their handling on this specific matter.
Monday’s protests represent a minority viewpoint. 62% of those polled said that Wolf’s stay-at-home order is about right and 12% said it doesn’t go far enough. 23% said it was too restrictive. 58% polled think that the Trump administration was too slow in its response to the coronavirus outbreak, while 39% said that the administration responded with the appropriate speed.
As the topic of reopening the state’s economy is a hot button issue in Harrisburg, over 6 in 10 Pennsylvanians believe that the state should wait to reopen the economy, even if it means the economic crisis lasts longer. 64% believe that the state should wait to reopen the economy, even if it means the economic crisis lasts longer, while 25% said that the state should reopen the economy, even if it means the public health crisis lasts longer.

I honestly think some Trump voters are ashamed to say they are voting Trump in polls.

I think the motivating factor for voting for Trump is to not be voting for Democrats. so they can disagree with him and think he messed up and it won't impact their vote. those voters are not 'gettable' for Biden or Democrats in general.

Last episode I watched was outrage at some fairly dated trump news followed by a strange deep dive on Wendy Williams WFH setup (which the interns probably thought would be funny)

Come at me libs


I would argue with you, but one of the greatest losses of this pandemic is that I used to get together with a friend and horn in on their HBO subscription to catch up on John Oliver during the week, so I'm about four weeks behind.

But wait! Didn't realize you could watch full episodes on youtube, which I get on my TV (I never watch things on my computer, because I'm old). Caught the latest, and while he certainly does come at things from a certain angle it was all straight talk, and very funny despite the funereal atmosphere of the home studio.

Who knows if I'll ever catch up with the episode you saw, but I'll definitely tune in next time if I have any idea what day of the week it is then.

I like John Oliver (I've been watching most of his long segments on youtube over the last few months), although I kinda wish he was a little less. It's almost like he's narrowing his audience and speaking to them, versus dialing it back and making it more accessible. I don't feel like I can forward his episodes to people (eg. my parents) because now he's gratuitously obscene. It's a little too comedy-tilting, and yet he's done 5 long segments on the current epidemic.

He sucks. He does really good stuff but it's so fucking comedy focused that all it does is divide.

Everything he does is just talking down to the other side

Unless you work in McConnell's office or Kentucky, in general.

I'm conflicted on it. On one hand it's super #resistancey but on the other hand I laugh sometimes. He's clearly just pandering to his base and I guess that's a choice as it's mostly a comedy show but sometimes I'm just like I already know most of this why am I watching. I think it's amplified during COVID because the news cycle moves so fast that we've known all of what he's talked about and moved on from it. It's a better show when they're doing deep dives into other things like cash bail, private prisons etc.

Trump and Pence are both citing findings they say show the virus does better in cold weather than warm. Pence says they got a report from the science branch of the Department of Homeland Security, "which will increase the confidence that we feel about the coming summer.

@ddale8
Trump: I "once mentioned" that maybe it does go away with heat and light, and "the fake news" didn't like it, but "it seems like that's the case."

What he said most frequently was that it might well go away by April. Reporters accurately note there was no evidence for that.

@ddale8
Trump says he asked DHS science officials, upon hearing light can kill the virus, if the light can be used to "hit the body" or even used "inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way." He says they'll test it.
