We should have never locked down like we did in the first place, and definitely should not lockdown and isolate hardcore.

It was only recently the WHO said lockdowns should be a last resort only, not the primary control method.

I like how Con Don Jr. dismisses 900 some deaths a day as “almost nothing”.
Those deaths are peoples mothers and fathers, friends, siblings. Workers, intellectuals, farmers, corporate leaders, all Americans, all dead.
The callousness is unreal.

If we were testing, tracing, masking, and distancing properly, we wouldn’t need the blunt instrument of a lockdown.

It should be common sense, but everyone was in so much of a panic that they had none. You had testing go up in flames due to crappy old policies that backfired. You had people freaking out like they were about to die buying up as much supplies as they could, and you had politicians focused on a bs impeachment at the beginning of the year and then their political goals as time went on.

That’s what idiots don’t understand.
They want their cake and they want to eat it too. They don’t want lockdowns, but they also don’t want restrictions, but they also want the virus to go away.
The first two are needed for the second to have a chance of happening.

We would have had lockdowns anyway tbh. Politically it is the easy route. It’s easier to lockdown and make some dumb comment about how even one death is too much then to not lockdown and have everyone criticize you.

Most of the time the GOP just wants to stop people from voting in the first place. But Trump wants to do an extra step and say they don’t get counted even if they do get to vote.

“Hopefully the few states remaining that want to take a lot of time after November 3rd to count ballots, that won’t be allowed by the various courts.”

The jungle election in Georgia has highlighted something rather remarkable about the modern GOP.
As the two biggest GOP candidates, Collins and Leoffler, have started the blood feud to end all feuds.
Their scorched earth policy has gone as far as Collins attacking Leo for having an Andy Worhal painting, and Leo attacking back that Collins has dem friends. They’ve also attacking each other over her is more “loyal” and devout to Trump in an almost cult like way.
Its frankly a little disturbing.
Even more, they each have accused each other as being allies to Mitt Romney. Romney has become somewhat of a persona non grata among the GOP. To the point where he’s being used as some sort of boogeyman to measure up against.

So somehow, one saying that they aren’t fazed, nor impressed by any pearl-clutching from any one particular user in this thread is in violation of rule #0? Interesting. 🤔

The good news is that the slow states aren’t really in doubt. Except Pennsylvania, and if that’s even close, there’s a good chance we can declare a winner without it.

I think the former is his only real chance because so many people have voted, that voter suppression might not be enough.
At this point, the only way Trump can win is by the SC or by voter suppression.

Rickia Young, the mother of the boy, had unexpectedly found herself caught between armed thugs (police) and protesters while driving home. As she was attempting to turn around, police descended on the vehicle and smashed the windows, pulling her and her nephew from the car, Mr Mincey said, adding that the toddler was then pulled from the backseat.Ms Young had to be taken to hospital for treatment, while the baby remained with police officers. “Her face was bloodied and she looked like she had been beaten by a bunch of people on the street. She is still in pain.”The toddler was left with a large bump to the head. Mother and son were separated until the following morning. Ms Young was released without charge. Police have failed to inform the family where the damaged vehicle is, or the belongings inside it, which included her son’s hearing aids, the lawyer said.

Or like last time the polls are wrong because people don’t feel inclined to share their actual political beliefs out of fear of being cancelled. Can’t wait for another round of butthurt liberal shitheads looking under every rock for Russian phantoms to blame the outcome on…when they aren’t blaming leftists, of course.

The polling error would have to be double what it was in 2016, unidirectional, and consistently large across all 6 main swing states.
People, a sample size of 1 is no sample. Trump won last time due to a sampling error in his favor because the actually averaged polls put Clinton within the margins. Clinton was barely 3 points ahead of Trump nationally in 2016 at this point in the race. Biden is anywhere from 8 to 12. Trump had a 32’ish% chance to win, now he has around a 10%.
Biden is polling well outside the margins.
Trump can win, but I would put money on it not being because of polling error.
