  1. When dealing with someone incredibly stupid you do reverse psychology. (Microphones OFF!) When dealing with the above plus a narcissist you appeal to his frail masculinity (Microphones ON!) How much lower can we go?
  2. Again I disagree, had he had his grandpa moment in the state of the union, or in an interview, or in a major speech it would have been the same. The debate in itself had absolutely nothing to do with it. People are not logical, when you have a candidate like Trump who wants to end democracy the logical thing is to vote 100% for the opponent with perfect turnout. Instead we have hateful bigots in MAGA so we need to discard 45%, then we have the unwieldly Democratic tent at 55%. Don't get me wrong Kamala IS the smart choice when dealing with ilogical actors, but at the same time you just have to feel contempt on how once again logic does not matter, how real debates (where evidence is presented and evaluated) really don't matter. Its all a god damn nihilistic reality TV show, you just have to deal with imperfect reality.
  3. I already mentioned this when it was happening, but it was a a panic attack more than an actual needle shift. Let me put this in other words if Kamala came out with the exact same performance 2 weeks from now I doubt the needle would move at all. The candidates are set, people will reinforce their beliefs even if entering denial, and we would move exactly as we are today. There are no knives being sharpened for her in the democratic camp.
  4. It not even like the debates fucking matter, it is just screaming the stupid bullshit and the MAGA side will declare him the winner regardless. I have NEVER seen a real presidential debate in my lifetime, and never will, that they have devolved into literaly shitslinging is expected, that the shit slinger in chief is scared to do it in person instead of behind his fat twitter fingers is what is shocking.
  5. And back in when he realizes that he is so far behind in the polls he needs another miracle.
  6. I mean it has not stopped republicans from playing dirty and getting what they want, things like withholding funding from states unless the national compact passed the 270 mark would have been a good start.
  7. Because national polls are more precise if Kamala was leading by 2 points and that is the end result then yeah sound the alarms, but a 7 point lead in the national polls after the 2016 demographic reorganization leads me to have certain thoughts about a blowout in the EC. Hillary only won the popular vote by 2 percent and was blown out, which is worse than in 2000 when Gore won by .5 percent and was close. The system is still extremely fucked and probably getting worse, and the inability to change it to a popular vote is a massive failing from democrats, but we are where we are.
  8. Schloss said recruiting black players was harder due to their racism (cant find that quote for the life of me though) It is pure mercenary work at the highest premiums, once they are ready to move on to the NFL they transfer out and take Football seriously (see Evan Stewart)
  9. They are taking it way too rationally at the zoo, am dissapointed.
  10. These gomer wet dream fantasies are getting disturbing. It is not a fantasy they are only trying to replicate a historical battle, the US Army vs the Aggies in the Hitlerjugend.
  11. I mean I kinda want it to be true, because if it is, it means it was fat not muscle.
  12. Democrats wanted him out of the ballot with lawsuits, they might know something, "we hate both sides" people are far more fertile ground than reaching out for the cult.
  13. The traditional message board user (can write paragraphs and are argumentative) have all move on to Reddit. The legacy users that stay are stuck at a single demographic, so much so that I assume that everyone that posts here is right around my age.
  14. I mean he has said way worse and veterans still vote for him, at the end of the day it is pure voting suppression on his part by looking like a low energy dumbass the content of his words literally do not matter.
  15. Youtube pushed that prerecorded SNL skit today and it had me in stitches.
  16. I think people are worried about pass protection more than anything, we are not A&M we are not stupid enough to trot out Rueben Owens and get our QB killed.
  17. The funniest part is that I could at least argue that LSU-Gomers is a bigger rivalry than UT-LSU, which obviously isn't, think about it that is the only thing they can claim (well the battle of the Brazos is bigger but that just needling them harder) but if the SEC move is the final stop... Texas could do the funniest thing and steal their girl.
  18. NC and Georgia are economic migrants which is why they are flipping. TX and FL are MAGA warriors fleeing there, AZ is retirees but they have their maverick pride, NV I have no idea.
  19. NV was not a fascist recruitment like Abbott and DeSantis though, Nevada is also probably the most urban+suburban state I can think of, only 7.4% is rural, I think a GOTV campaign can be very efficient at targeting the votes. That said Masto won by only 8000 votes, it is trending red but it is my prediction for the closest state result.
  20. No, national polls are very very good at predicting final results as long as a certain margin was crossed (say Kamala +5), state polls are horrifically unreliable, I have seen like 7 point swings in final state polls but never to that level in national polls. That said B+ is pretty mediocre. If Kamala cements her 5% nationally I can at least breathe better.
  21. https://www.al.com/sports/2020/01/does-alabama-or-auburn-have-more-fans-survey-says-answer.html Found it here, its just funny because it is 51%
  22. You made me look it up Still I don't think he is hated by anyone really just extremely respected, it should be a priority to recruit him to run there.
  23. Musk abandoned EVs in his rathead, Tesla sales are plummeting, He singlehandedly built the toytruck, BYD is eating its lunch, and he has pivoted to (we are an self driving AI company!!!!!). Honestly it would not surprise me that once he reaches complete collapse that he will start railing against EVs.
