Ingraham literally acting like a publicist for much of that interview. Offering explanations and steering him away from bad comments throughout.

Anyway, bad day for Trump. Think yesterday will hurt him.
On a scale of 1 to Chris Brown, how pissed is he?

I didn't watch the interview but can someone please explain what the #$!&@ he is talking about?


The simple explanation is that he had been watching OAN or reading single line printouts from 4chan prior to the Ingraham interview. The clips I saw were horrendous and will play great with his base. Nothing is going to sway those 30% - NOTHING. How anybody can be "undecided" at this point defies comprehension. I get people may not be excited to vote for Biden but a lack of excitement does not remotely justify another four years of Trump.

I watched this (https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/202 ... nr-vpx.cnn) CNN interview with a Minnesota voter yesterday and could only shake my head.

Some post convention state polls from Morning Consultant. All are the same as before except Arizona where Biden's lead has grown. So many 50s and 49s. These are much better numbers than HRC had at the same time during 2016.

Ariz: Biden 52-42
Mich: Biden 52-42
Pa: Biden 49-45
Minn: Biden 50-43
Wis: Biden 52-43
Fla: Biden 49-47
Tex: Trump 48-47
OH: Trump 50-45
NC: Biden 49-47
Ga: Biden 49-46 https://t.co/l3pspbrhDd

The WH supporting the idea that there are really only 10980 deaths to COVID. Where does that come from? Turmp, the Press secretary and the Trump army of pubic figure trolls (including a lawyer)all premised on the Q tea leaf reading of the number that say that 94% of all COVID deaths had an underlying pre-existing condition (TBF, they could get to 100% if they weren't lazy and counted everything since everyone has something like carrying a few poounds ot the often long journey to death that starts with birth).

Sorry if this was posted in some form previously, but I did not see it with a lazy search. I am getting ~1.5 hours of internet per day while enjoying time away.

Sixers "offer use of Wells Fargo Center" for the election. I had a feeling this was going to be trickier than the NBA made it sound. It will still be up to local jurisdictions to decide on election logistics like who would actually be able to vote there, how to staff it, etc.

Hopefully Philly follows through, but some cities will probably either ignore the offer or outright sabotage the process.

Nice gesture but i'm not sure I see it working out. I just don't think people will come form multiple neighborhoods away, especially when some people may not have their own transportation.

The more places the vote, the less likely there will be lines of 6 hours. If the places are staffed well it will make a huge difference, but the logistics could make it a CF.
Quick Google shows that GoGo is wrong with regards to the Kiwi and the Banana.

I mean, really. More and bigger polling places? Next those people will be asking for ballots!

Republicans are closing the vast majority of urban polling places this year. Opening the arenas as polling places increases access to urban populations and therefore gives a boost to Biden.

Simples.

JTK appears to be all aboard the Trump train. What a remarkable transformation from his former dirty lib self. All it took was the Wuhan Flu for something to click (or more likely, break) in his brain.

Plus, a huge space like the Center will make it a bit easier to physically distance and may encourage in-person voting.

Looks like we all get it...except JTK, which is par for the course in 2020. I am told Q is not a fan of this plan.
