So Biden still should show up in Michigan and pa, and Ohio.
Why?
Bleed over from Michigan and pa, into Ohio.
Improves his chances to win Ohio
This is just out and out fascism. Duda level. I've always thought he is a POS but this is barely above birth of a nation type fear-mongering
C'mon. Actual number of Americans watching Fox is something like 1 to 2% of the population.
The highest viewership they've had is still under two million.
Yep. Every national TV ad I've seen of his is essentially portraying the country as a shithole that's falling apart and that he can save. The country that he has overseen for 4 years and is running on "Keeping Great."
He is running as though he needs to come in and clean up a mess of someone else's making.
Really ? I flew into Dallas/Fort Worth once for a conference and remember it being on every TV in the hotel I stayed in and in a lot of the diners
There can be as many secret Trump voters as they want, so long as Biden is sitting pretty at 53%.
Heard NPR this morning actually called out Trump's speech yesterday as being a shameless attempt at a rally speech and that most of it was either hard to follow or made no sense. That's some harsh rhetoric from them. They're still trying to treat him like a normal person though, which drives me nuts, but it's nice to hear them actually calling it what it was.
I don't believe that R vote, holy shit, that would be catastrophic for Trump
It's amazing how much the "culture war" has flipped in the past 4 years, seemingly most of it happening in the past few months. And bizarre that the Trump campaign is still acting like it's the same as 4 years ago. Like how stubborn and dumb do you have to be? Rhetorical question of course.
I really hope these polls hold out. I know their could be a big fallout in those 2.5 months to inauguration, but seeing that kind of a drubbing on election night would bring me some serious elation.

Yes, really. Fox News and its influence is vastly overstated. I think their prime time shows are over 1 to 2 million but it's nowhere anywhere close to 40% of the country.
40% of the country (and something like 70% of households) watches the Superbowl. That should give you an idea of how ludicrously high that number would have to be.
AM talk radio on the other hand is drastically understated. Conservative trolls like Hannity, Rush, and Levin rack up 10 to 15 million listeners a week which blows the doors off the fox News viewership.
My God, we would have been spared of this shit if he ran in 2016.
Hence "and the like". The conservative media ecosystem functionally makes sure that most of the Republican base doesn't trust non-partisan news sources.
The DSCC is taking a stab at getting Kobach the GOP Senate nomination in Kansas:
Most of the country is focused on the virus. His ads like what another post stated is fear mongering , but nobody is buying it. In 2016, he manged to tap into something, but he is doing the exact opposite.
He is running a shit campaign that is cratered around his delusions.
I'm not sure if this ends up being better or worse in that case ... not really familiar with AM radio / thought Hannity had a tv show on Fox
Gop pollsters yesterday commented on Alabama republicans voting. Numbers.
Said a abyssmal number of people showed up. In the most red state. Said Trump's struggling in Alabama to make gop voters turn up, then nationally he's screwed
He HAS to debate biden. It's his only chance to change the race at this point.
There is ZERO chance a debate doesnt happen.
Trump admin knocked funding for public radio funding ages ago iirc. I assume a lot of states are just conservative AM through rural areas and not much else aside from scattered music.
Also all this aside, the fact that we have places like Huntington Beach here in CA ready to let their kids back into schools without any precaution is fucking wild. I expect the first story of a hospitalized child will send the nation into a tailspin of panic if it ever comes to that. I don't see how these people even risk that awful of a story playing out.
"Who will protect your children? btw, send them back to school with no protections during a pandemic"
Trump campaign in its own little world atm
New Monmouth poll of Pennsylvania: Biden: 53% Trump: 40% That's after a month-plus of Trump pounding Pittsburgh and Philly markets with "Biden will defund police" and "Biden will ban fossil fuel" messaging.

Democrat strong in swing counties; close House ballotwww.monmouth.edu
Fucking juicy
remember when Don Jr. thought he was being alpha when he challenged Hunter to a debate on the subject of "which one of us benefited less financially from their dad"
The media has been trying to normalize him since the 80's, and they'll still be waiting for him to act Presidential when he's booted out the door in January.
He's incapable of acting like a human because he's not wired right, and it's incredible that they still refuse to acknowledge his personality disorders. They should have treated him like the sociopathic monster he is a long time ago.
"Jeffrey Dahmer is a really charming person when he's not eating people."
I can't wait for the media to sanitize and edit his inevitable word salad into what they think he's saying.
I wonder if he'll try to loom behind Biden like he did Clinton? Just kidding. He's a coward.
Maybe he'll challenge Biden to a glass of water contest.
The debates are going to be a shit show. I'm expecting him to ramble like he did yesterday. He may be mostly cognitive for the first 20min or so but so quickly hes going to devolve.
I don't think it's bluffing or false confidence either when Trump and his supporters gleefully say "just wait until the debates."
They genuinely do believe Trump will dismantle and own senile, dementia having Sleepy Joe. And they believe that'll be the big turning point.
Boy, are they in for a rude awakening.

He will debate Biden. They will show him moments where Biden is stuttering or deep fake stuff and tell him he defeated the reigning debate champion Hillary so Biden is nothing.
Someone shuld start a rumor that pooping his pants on live TV has never been done before and the ratings would be off the charts.
Trump thinks he's the best at debates.
He won't take kindly to anyone trying to tell him otherwise.
The debates are happening and its not going to be good for them.
He was so high yesterday, I honestly don't see him making any debates. He slurs, sweats, hangs on the podium, and can't complete a thought or sentence. He can't even keep track of what he's trying to answer. The only thing he can do is read (barely) from a teleprompter or notes, and stumble through his 2016 rally speech. He was even pausing for applause in the usual spots. He's deteriorating fast.
Thing is, I don't think Biden should show up to any.
There's no debate about this.
Trump is a traitorous sycophant who has killed hundreds of thousands of Americans.
This isn't a debate.
Thought he was from Delaware
Don't know how to take the secret voter question
Wait, are hospitals actually complying with this? I thought that the WH asked but they can still send the data to the CDC if they wanted to.
Doctors like this are insane
Don't think a debate matters at this point. You can't debate him on policy so he's just gonna be yelling and screaming about China and Democrats and probably try to do something obnoxious like cough on Biden. I still think Trump will refuse to debate though.
The democratic party was desperate to hand it to Hillary in 2016. People were literally saying "she earned it" before the primaries started. He was smart not to run.
He was born in PA and lived there for over 10 years before moving to DE.
That's what I'm saying. He can't even answer softball questions from Hannity.
He'll just do what he always does, ramble and not answer. Without followup questions, he'll be fine.
