Give me all of the rainbows BUT

I hope people don't fall for this shit. Bezos doesn't give a fuck about conservative or right-wing voices. Him and his shekel-collecting friends know which way the wind is blowing; the fad of woke and lefty faggotry is ending, the time of conservative values and staunch nationalism is beginning.
They want in on the ground floor and I hope they're locked in the fucking basement.

polls are so dismal that CBS has set up an "estimates" page that shows their election fantasies instead of direct polling data

We take a state-by-state approach, because the presidency is determined in the Electoral College, not by national popular vote. We produce estimates of current support using a statistical model that incorporates all the data we've collected up to this point.

I know Tony can be funny, but he's really only popular because he surrounds himself with funnier people through Kill Tony. He did have some genuinely good zingers that synced with the crowd like the Diddy party and "God voted 3 months ago" lines.

His Puerto Rico joke would have been a disaster for a Republican '00s/'10s campaign and maybe even Trump's 2016 campaign just by association. But not this time, too late. Harris' campaign already prepped the bull by getting every MSM news anchor to openly call Trump Hitler the past few days along with highlighting the MSG Nazi rally from a hundred years ago. An off-color joke by a well known-to-be purposefully offensive comedian like Tony is fucking peanuts compared to all that. And I have a feeling everyone knows it.

And the jokes didn't even land. The audience reception sounded pretty lukewarm.

I'm not trying to be overly or unreasonably optimistic, but I'm beginning to wonder if Kamala might opt to consneed early, just to be done with it all. 🤔

Which begs the question: How does everyone thing the final week is going to go for both Candidates? Trump is probably going to keep doing what he is doing (rumor has it he is even going to stop off in VA) but is Harris going to go with the basement strategy or actually try to go out in front of people?

The problem with PR is they want to go their own way when the economy is good, but start talking about statehood when the economy is bad. I would not mind PR becoming a state if the Republicans get a territory that is conservative.

I know I'll get rainbows for this, but Puerto Rico has had some recent governors who are Republican (Vázquez, Fortuño). I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that Puerto Rico would automatically provide two Democrat senators.

It depends on mail-in ballots. Early votes are counted first, then election day, then mail-in, military, and absentee.

Here’s the thing, Republicans are doing the work to show up early. But Democrats like to vote by mail. Republicans driving early voting turnout doesn’t mean Democrats aren’t going to catch up with mail-in. I think we will still see Republicans turn up big on Election Day, but that mail-in vote could be as monstrous as it was in 2020, if not moreso.

I pose a question to US Politics General: if you were a major American politician at a huge rally, what would be your walk-on music? The only rule is it must be an American artist, which makes it hard for me because so many of my favorite artists are (Lord forgive me for uttering this word) Br*tish.

"Bad to the Bone" by George Thorogood. The fact that it has become a "meme" song in recent years only adds to its appeal.

This might be an unpopular opinion here but Tony Hinchcliffe's comedy set at the MSG rally was an optics nightmare and probably shouldn't have happened. It also really wasn't the place for comedy.

Agreed, it's just unnecessary negative attention no matter how you spin it. This was for sure Barron saying "Kill Tony is pretty funny dad, you should get Tony Hinchliffe to speak" but someone should have thought "Damn, comedy is not a good mix with how the magnifying glass is on us because we're so far ahead"

Jokes were fine and comedy is fine but man are you just fuelling the fire of the MSM, make some jokes calling Kamala retarded not about jews and blacks.

Marty Baron, who was executive editor of the newspaper when Bezos bought the Washington Post more than a decade ago, denounced the move as an act of “cowardice.”

Act of cowardice is crazy. I think moving away from globohomo groupthink is smart, especially doing it publically.
The decision sparked a backlash among staffers and readership — with scores of social media users proclaiming that they had cancelled their subscriptions to the paper.
