Goddamn you. You beat me to it

Banana Blender Surprise and The Ging’bread Men weren’t available.

My wife calls people retards sometimes and she definitely should not be president

Holy shit, I just saw a Kamala Harris billboard in Belton

Dark days

I’m not impressed with either of these teams.

Is this the bedwetter thread or the bedwetting thread about the bedwetters?

Just saw one with a Vietnam vet being mad about forced transgender operations on children in the military DAMN YOU HO CHI MIN

I agree. Great day for that.

This motherfucker, who signed the bill that eliminated deductions on local sales and property taxes, now wants to make the interest on your car loans tax deductible.

Thank you for your service

If you personally are struggling right now, whatever that means for you, none of that matter.

It lands with most people like you, but it doesn’t really land with middle middle and lower middle class people.

Picking a nit- I really don’t like the expression “opportunity economy,” which Kamala Harris uses a lot. It sounds like the focus group bullshit Republicans used to grin-fuck middle class people with until Donald Trump came along. The inability of Democrats at all levels to connect to middle class people’s financial struggles is constantly baffling to me. Hell it almost cost Kirk Watson the Austin mayor’s race.

More of this.

For a second I thought you were talking about the secret post office with no lines on 17th street.

Sure we can. We just don’t, but our traffic issue is not the result of not enough lanes. Our traffic issue is the product of 1) too few people who live close to where they work, but more importantly 2) our street grid is more fragile and broken than most cities our size. The cheapest thing and highest impact things we could do involve the elimination of choke points. Like there’s a bunch of tactical stuff traffic engineers can do that would yield dramatic improvements by simply smoothing out the traffic, but they are total non-starters politically.

I don’t hate it, with one modifications- they would need to reopen 9th street where it goes under the Federal building east of Trinity. Otherwise, Congress ave between 7th and 11th street isn’t really part of any vital through-traffic pattern and there aren’t any businesses on that stretch that depend on fronting to motor vehicle access. Quite the opposite. Storefront businesses would benefit. The East-West throughput on 5-6-7th and 11th is what’s vital.

Who gives a fuck what they want? Somebody asks you a question they get the answer they get. Harris and Democrats in general need to go make their own weather.

Seriously. It costs zero votes and it’s fun.

No, but they should be laughing at it, calling him names, and attacking media for adopting Republican framing. For example- “You've called President Trump a racist, but the polls say he’s got 46-48% of the vote. Why?” ”that’s a dumb question. First, Donald Trump is a racist, and that’s why I called him that, but I’ll give him credit for one thing: he has conned a lot of good people into believing his bullshit. That’s too bad. But you know better. I know you do. And with all due respect, for the life of me I can’t understand why you would get this interview and use your time to ask me to play Dr Phil for my opponent’s supporters. Trump a racist old fool who makes no sense when he talks. Next question.”

Oh, and this is important- from the great Jane Coaston

There are other explanations. We certainly hope that there is a “hidden Dobbs vote,” and there is reason to believe that, but we don’t know it. Trump support could also be undercounted by 3, which has also been true in the past. Also - polling has been off by an average of 2-3pts over the last five presidential elections. If Harris gets a normal miss in her favor in the swing states (more or less consistent with post Dobbs results), she wins 312-350 EVs, and puts another 20-30 If Trump gets a normal miss in his favor (which has been historically the case) he gets around 300. And of course if the polls are exactly correct right now she would win 279 EVs, but then it’s a jump ball and there are certification fights. No matter what happens on Election Day, it’s going to be pretty grim between 11/5 and mid February. But the important thing for Democrats right now is to stop fretting about why Trump support isn’t collapsing and focus on GOTV. He’s more likely to be behind than ahead right now and I’d rather be in our shoes than theirs.
