Crazy there are people on this site either saying yep to that or doing the mental work to convince themselves that when they pull the lever for that they haven’t completely abandoned all of their values.

They haven't abandoned their values. The MAGA worldview expresses their values. At least as the MAGA worldview emerged over the past 40 years since Reagan.

Bottom line: They are voting for what they believe, for what they are, for the world they want.

I mean, I didn't see jack shit from Amarillo to Denver, and I drove up 287 through nothing but deep red counties the whole way.  Saw less than 5 signs. 

Trump got 83% of the vote in Baca County.  I saw one sign.

I think these people just learned not to fly signs. They don't want the grief. But they're still fully engaged.

Just looking at that graphic, seems like it would take an enormous amount of older men voting in order to just make this a close race, considering that 18-39 gap.

I actually don’t think we they care about the grief they get since they get little in their towns. Most I talk to think is has been wrapped up for since last year and don’t think they need to make the effort.

“He had a joke calling [Vice President Kamala] Harris a cunt,” a campaign insider involved in the discussions about the event told The Bulwark. “Let’s say it was a red flag.”

Four Trump campaign sources confirmed Trump's campaigned edited Tony Hinchcliffe's routine, “It could have been even worse.”

@Bateshorn has mentioned it, but Ann Selzer is dropping her final poll on Sunday.

This might be the most definitive "this is how the election is going to go" based on her track record. If she shows Iowa has a 5 point or less race, Harris is going to win easily. Her September poll was Trump +4 (47-43)

She was the first to show Obama winning the Iowa caucus using her method of "poll forward" - Rather than drawing from a panel of registered, likely voters, Selzer & Co. doesn’t discriminate in their voter pool. Whether you’re a Democrat, Republican, or an Independent, whether it’s your first caucus or your fifth, Selzer & Co. will take your political intent into mind

That is how she found all those first time voters that Obama inspired.

I want to know who the new Trump voters are. No one has explained that to me. 

New since last time?

1. Those who have succumbed to the constant mainstream media drumbeat of how intensely shitty things have been the past 4 years between inflation! and! migrants!   2. Those who simply cannot bring themselves to support a woman/POC -- god forbid, both!   Those are my fears anyway. And that perhaps those people aren't vocal about their support with pollsters etc.

This is correct. In fact, The first thing you do after you swear in a new Speaker is pass the rules package for the new Congress. The reforms also make it impossible for state legislatures to appoint electors after the election. 

The concern here would be SCOTUS invalidating this part of that legislation, but after their last case on the ISL "doctrine" I think the odds of that happening are low.

[Red Five 40061]

Considering that he tried to overthrow the last election and caused an insurrection, perhaps some more attention should be paid to his "secret plan" with Mike Johnson, that we will only know about after the election. C'mon media, make an attempt at doing your jobs.

Yeah man.  I had to visit Hanford a couple of times. Eastern WA fucking sucks. 

I worked at Hanford number 2 for three years.  The only good thing about the area was the Meadow Springs Country Club. That was one fantastic golf course and I played about eight rounds a week.

So the campaign reviewed the Puerto Rico joke and gave the thumbs up. Same with the Latino immigrant jokes. Maybe the watermelon joke was ad libbed.

Honestly, if Trump wanted to sue these dipshits for malpractice, gross incompetence, whatever, it might be one of the few cases his attorneys could win.
