  1. How does he feel about Crypto? Should we get him in a thread with Bernorange?
  2. I mean, I'm sure I can't tell when I eat them at restuarants, but yeah, I eat the pasture raised organic eggs, or regular organic at HEB for $4.50 a dozen. That extra buck fifty in either direction really doesn't show up on my monthly budget much, so I admit to being perplexed by the outrage. Of course, I'm not raising a family of three teenage boys or anyhthing like that, so who knows.
  3. Listen, I love all those data points, but lets not pretend midterm elections, or any election, are the same as presidential elections. We all know it and act accordingly, and pretending like that fucking pussbang isn't on the ticket dragging more of his low IQ dipshits to vote in this election is absurd. I choose believe you don't actually think I live in a complete fantasy world. But I do believe you know enough about where the media and social media have driven a stake throgh reality for many people means that, if not fantasy, at the very least there are mulitple realities that people choose to subscribe to at this point in time. Trump has been talking shit about people for 8 years now, and for some of those people he's increased their vote share (looking at you, latin men). And yet his popularity never seems to drop below a certain threshold. People don't believe he's a nazi. People you and I both know, don't view January 6th as something other than a few stupid hillbillies doing stupid hillbilly things, and it's not representative of Trump or the Republican party at all. So I've got to tell you, I agree with one thing you said, and it's definetly that people live in a fucking fantasyland. I don't personally think that's me, but shit, at this point anything is possible.
  4. I like Galveston fine, but I hope PR never hires your ass for their tourism board. “It’s like Galveston, but you have to fly there!” Ooof.
  5. Voting on something they effects you should be more energizing, YOU HOPE. But you don’t know, because you’re not broken. also, the Hate not being energized in 2016? Did you see what happened in 2016? Trump started normalizing hate and he gained these voters. When Richard Spencer praises Tucker Carlson, and Trump says “good people on both sides” and names the Proud Boys in. A debate, he’s absolutely gaining non voting hate fueled people and getting them to vote. we rejected that knob in 2020 coming off his disaster, but unfortunately propaganda and short memories have us where we are…and for me that’s not certain, or confident. Otherwise we’d be so energized that no amount of polling would be showing anything other than an easy win, regardless of polling flaws or bias.
  6. Saying Hate doesn’t energize people is a fallacy. Hope energizes you because you’re a good person not filled with hate. If a majority of America were that way, we wouldn’t be here. But at this point in don’t think anyone can say Americans aren’t at least 50% filled to the brim with grievances. And those people lash out. And these days voting is a mechanism to lash out. I hope you’re right, but In far from certain, much less confident.
  7. Is he helobious? Because I’ve missed that if so. it’s still fucking jarring.
  8. On the election lab thread Sushi is pretty adamant that it will take a historic democratic turnout in PA and GA to get it done, and over here plenty of people finding evidence things look great. The whiplash is jarring.
  9. Sounds and looks like it’s good for America. Like the rules of the Fairness Doctrine. The only problem is making all of America watch it.
  10. This pollster nailed the only other predictions he has made and he has Kansas moving 10 to the left. Prose is meant to be read, sir.
  11. I knew what you meant man. Just speaking for myself. I’m not sure I’ll be able to turn off CR bird dogging fascism.
  12. They don’t back down enough to not vote for him though. After the last 8 years, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to disengage again. Not meaningfully. The consequences are too terrifying. Yup.
  13. Wait. Incredulity told us that no one drives to commit crimes. AND NOW WE LEARN THE SAME VEHICLE DROVE TO MULTIPLE LOCATIONS TO COMMIT THE SAME CRIME TWICE!?!? what am I supposed to believe!?!?!
  14. Kansas was called in 2020 by 10 pm Eastern.
  15. I dont know about that. But I can tell you 45% of this country is going to be completely fucking shocked and at a complete loss thanks to the fucking media and polling companies.
  16. That isn't a shot at Dotard. It's a shot at his voters, really.
  17. Trump won Kansas in 2020 by almost 15 points. I wonder a) why he'd use the word weird to describe what they're seeing and b) why that pollster doesn't put out more fucking polls.
  18. I mean, Nazi's follow an ideology and a leader. Christian Nationalists think they're following the will of God. They're much scarier to me.
  19. Gen X men scoring better than Gen X women, if I'm raeding that correctly? I mean, if that's true, the women vote really spelling doom?
  20. Lets not leave anything to chance.
  21. I think these people just learned not to fly signs. They don't want the grief. But they're still fully engaged.
