I am so thrilled tonight! I spoke with my mom and asked her how my dad was taking the election. She said after every network declared Biden the winner, he turned off Fox News and said “Well, glad t

This was my experience in Galveston County, except for one thing. I came in and presented my ID to the geriatric at the front who printed out my pin number. I took my pin number to a table where two B

The UT-Tyler poll gives hope to those who want Biden to win specifically because of the why on his having the lead.

Democrat voters: 97-1 for Biden
Republican voters: 92-6 for Trump
Independents: 51-29 for Biden

All of those dovetail with the only realistic scenario where Biden wins Texas. Trump loses enough Republican voters to lose the State.

Also, even the remaining undecideds probably won't break for Trump:

Watching the Sunday shows and Texas wasn't even on their radar until Matt Down said Biden has a better chance of winning Texas than Trump does winning PA or MI.  They looked at him like he had two heads.  

The media (news, political, and sports) all live in a complete geographic bubble.

The years of wandering in the desert may be playing into a lack of interest for UT fans but I have noticed a marked decrease in my own emotional involvement for college football as well, and I’m an alumni and fan of arguably the most successful program of the last decade if not all time.

And it’s not just my love of Alabama Football, I have found many of my guilty pleasures and things I loved doing in the past don’t bring me as much joy.

I really believe the last four years have been not only damaging to the foundations of our country but have impacted our national psyche.

I’m not exaggerating when I say I struggle between knowing I need to keep engaged and informed on the daily, sometimes hourly, horrors this man and his administration has foisted on us and wanting to disengage completely because I find it all so personally depressing and distressing.

I can feel my mood sour and my general outlook on my fellow Americans plummet by just watching and listening to him. I go out of my way to not watch or listen to him. I will read a transcript or article instead.

I think the past four years, capped off with the changes in normal life brought on by the coronavirus will leave some permanent changes in so many things and we aren’t even conscious of all of it yet.

I’ve been feeling something similar for some time.  If you are tuned in and aware of what has been going on the last four years, things like college football seem pretty inconsequential.

Agreed - I'm shocked how much this has flown under the radar.

On Thursday night Biden gifted them a soundbyte about shutting down the oil industry and that’s the best they can come up with? Is Tom Herman running the Trump campaign?

More on the UT Tyler poll
 

63-32...we're the fucking worst.

These. WTF, white people? That the ACTUAL fuck?

Although these numbers pretty much sesl the obvious truth: the Trump movement is entirely a desperate, fearful gambit of a demographic that has run this country unchallenged since its inception, often at the open and direct disadvantage of anyone not part of that demo (all the way across the board, from slavery to the anti-Chinese League, and a million other things), seeing that absolute, unchallenged control slipping away.

Obama is what put the fear of God in them (“Kenyan Muslim” we’re just code words for what really terrified them - not a white guy). They are now fighting like a cornered dog, and they have made their intentions (burn it all down) abundantly clear: of they can’t have this country, entirely and exclusively, nobody can.

Trump and his support isn’t about policy, or anything more than that. It’s an existential question for them: do white people (men) get to keep running this country exclusively, for their primary benefit, or might some non-white coalition come to power and (here’s the real fear) treat white people even 1/10th as shitty as they’ve treated anyone else?

Look at the numbers. Forget policy, the numbers tell us it’s not more complicated than that.

Oh, and as for shy educated white people aren’t part of that group so much? Because perspective and experience tell us that there’s more than enough prosperity to go around, and we’ve experienced and seen minority leadership/power sharing, and it’s fine.

Hey white people, it’s gonna be ok. Minorities in this country aren’t going to treat you like you treated them.

I’m a white male and part of that 32% and I approve this message.

It takes a special kind of stupid to never listen to those who are either A) smarter than you in general or B) more knowledgeable than you in a particular area.  Of all of the stupidity exhibited by Trump and his merry band of dipshits, their preference to literally die rather than to listen, learn, live and flourish takes the cake.  I have never encountered a leader in any walk of life who is more profoundly and proudly ignorant than Donald Trump, and I can only ascertain that he has risen to the heights he has due to his gifted wealth and sociopath's audacity.  In any true meritocracy, he would have been weeded out by his own ignorance and incompetence long before now.  But here he is, the President of the United States, watching the COVID-19 slot machine spitting out a jackpot of death, smugly wearing his ignorance and stupidity as badges of honor.

Needless to say, fuck the piece of shit currently occupying the white house.

The current angle being passed around by my old HS connections on Facebook is that Trump handled the coronavirus way better than Biden would have.

Let's put that to the old logic test:  the Obama administration hand-delivered a pandemic response plan to Trump.  This plan was initiated under W and further fleshed out by . . . Obama and Biden.  But sure, it makes sense that Biden wouldn't have had any idea how to handle a pandemic.  Right.

It’s been a nice escape. I was out on this season before Texas was exposed just because of how watered down it is bc of COVID - but in the “before” times it was always something you could count on to be a good time.

Fuck the pieces of shit who will vote for him again in 2020. Fuck them in their fake Christian, faux patriot traitorous asses. Fuck them for supporting an administration that killed tens of thousands of people, and who want to support it whiles it kills tens of thousands more.

And a special fuck them for not caring about tens to hundreds of thousands of deaths, but who go in rage about Benghazi.

Edit-remember, any fall out from them spreading COVID to these communities would occur after the election, whether that be in number of cases, hospitalizations, or death.

Put more romance novels on your reading list, Biff. Especially historical ones with men wearing breeches and women wearing dresses barely holding in heaving bosoms.

I hope they know what they're doing.

Maybe they are going to do what happened in my community. There had been a couple of Trump car/truck parades which were a little annoying because the cars wouldn't let people not participating through to gain access to exit ramps, etc. So last week another community leader held a Biden/Harris parade but people marched and drove to the polls to vote. They had to leave their signage at the requisite distance, but it was a brilliant idea, IMO.
