LOL. Bret Stephens is a Republican and has been very critical of Kamala in his editorials. However, I do not think he supports Trump, so this rant sort of makes sense.

I watched about five minutes of this last night. Stephens think democrats shouldn't talk about Trump in terms like "danger to democracy" or "wannabe autocrat" because it will upset Dotardarians.

I have noticed while walking my dog that there's fewer trump signs in yards than there were a couple months ago, at least in my part of Spring Branch

I finally spotted the first dotard sign on my street this week.  Of course dipshit had to break the local ordinance that states only one sign per race and put up three.  Back in 2020, at this point in the race the entire street was littered with dotard signs.  Not a single Cruz sign on my street, but tbh I don't recall many if any Cornyn signs back in 2020.  Usually my street shows out with signs but so far there is nothing other than the one yard with the dotard signs in it.  Hell, there's an asswipe a few doors up the road from me that would fly one of those cheap ass dotard flags pretty often; even he doesn't have his flag out.

What was 2016 or 2012 like in person?

I think Virginia made early voting much easier after 2016 so hard to compare with 2020 being Covid or 2016

Article I read said 600k voted early statewide in 2016 + 538k absentee mail ballots

I'm not judging trans porn. I watch trans porn. I'm judging your use of an ugly slur that is thrown at trans people on the reg.

I am torn...  On one hand I don't want to know what word it is, on the other hand I kinda need to know so I don't offend someone.

I assume it's the T word. I did not know that was a slur. I thought it was just a shortening of the longer word.

Thanks for the education.

Taxes, which just furthers the point that anyone who is Republican is either uneducated and therefore a moron or only cares about taxes and therefore is greedy and selfish or overly religious and therefore brainwashed

IIRC it was 2018, definitely under Northam.

Exactly, so not that easy to compare to previous cycles of the laws changed after 16 and 20 was an anomaly election

Sarah Longwell and Tim Miller confuse me.  They're anti Trump now but we're Republicans pollsters/strategists before.

We have two bears down the street that are the most MAGA people you will ever see, mostly because they are 100% insane. One was a nurse at my sons pediatric, and he is legit nutbar.

78 year old Trump sexing up a nasty 31 year old. 70 year old RFK Jr. getting noods from a decent 31 year old. Play on, players. 

 

I try not to judge anyone for what they do in their bedrooms and who they're attracted to, but you're 31 and look like that, and that's the dick you risk your career over??

This feels like a challenge to see how long Cheryl Hines will stick around. It's been getting increasingly ridiculous for awhile now. The next one will be that he actually had sex with the bear.

It seems we are at the beginning of the phase where people that only vote in presidential elections are starting to bandwagon on the perceived "winning side".  I'm sure dotard will get his normal jump over polling data because so many people are too embarrassed to admit to a stranger that they support the bag of shit, but the shift towards dotard may be more muted this time around.

2020 was R+1 (40/41/19) and 2022 was R+3 (37/40/24). Fetterman won by around 5 points (51-46) which tracks closely to the poll result.

Interesting

I just saw a totally wild trump add with Harris next to outlandish transgender images talking out how she supports taxpayer funded transgender surgery to prisoners. It was absurd but I’m sure some will find it effective. 

Same. Just came up during game day.

Right, I was just trying to think of a state with an even number of House reps.

As it currently stands, assuming straight party line votes, we're looking at 24 Trump to 23 Harris. DCCC is targeting two AZ districts (AZ-01, AZ-06) which could bring it to a 23-23 tie. Minnesota and NC are deadlocked but those districts are all very safe R and most of the current reps are MAGA nuts and/or election deniers, the closest race being NC-11, 53-44 (Madison Cawthorn's former district). Patrick McHenry of NC-10 voted to certify the electoral votes of Arizona and Pennsylvania, but he isn't seeking re-election and his district was redrawn to be even more MAGA. That seat will be held by Pat Harrigan, who is loony and would not have certified the results.

 

Even if the Dems take the house, I don't see any of the above flipping besides (possibly) Arizona. Much better to avoid an EC tie.

Scratch that, it's 25-23 Trump, but if you look at the Constitution it requires "a Majority of all the States" which in this case has to be 26. In other words, there's a pretty strong argument that there can be no Trump president until one of the MN or NC deadlocks are broken, and no Harris presidency unless AZ switches to a deadlock and all three deadlocks (AZ, MN, NC) are broken in her favor.

Just a friendly reminder that NC is 7-7 now but was redrawn to ensure it is 10-4 after November. It will not be a tied delegation.

I can’t imagine any of that shit helps him with non MAGA people. Just more fear and weirdness.

Good thing Biden has full immunity, can stay in power, and hand things off to Kamala.  Thanks SCOTUS!

I don’t know who she is, and while  I have a feeling there are no Trumpanzees in attendance, it still triggers them on the socials so good for her.

She's insanely popular (along with her band Paramore).  They basically lift their music and style and art from other artists -- I could show you something that would make you laugh -- but she's on the Swifty train and reaches a ton of people as Taylor's opening act.

Donny showing his misogyny by calling Stephanie Ruhle a bimbo.

Well he's a total loser who seems unsure of himself and confused. Sad
