Has he mentioned anything regarding how Kamala Harris will become the president if America elects Joe Biden?

Nah, still likes to mention how she's "something."

EDIT: I do like how he hammers down on protecting pre-existing conditions just to counter the narrative the media wants to spin with ACB and the hearing. Hope he keeps up the energy for tomorrow. @MrJokerRager, Trump utterly trounced Joe with the rally numbers.

I am pre-emptively butthurt that Trump won't get the Reagan-like landslide he was lined up to get back in February. I won't sperg about it for the next 4 years, but I was really looking forward to the complete humiliation of the left on this one.

Also, this is your monthly reminder that Hillary Clinton won California by 4.3 million votes, while Trump won the rest of the country by 1.4 million votes. Trump won the country, Hillary won California, and all he had to do was maintain his popularity outside of the TDS stronghold to get another victory. The EC exists for exactly these scenarios.

(In case someone was wondering, you can also take out Trump's biggest state, Texas, and he still won the rest of the country by ~600k votes.)

Assuming Trump wins, look on the bright side. Let's say that 2020 went as originally planned. No virus, no riots. Dems put Joe up to job to Trump, then they quietly slink away to lick their wounds and regroup for 2024.

The Democrats would still be boiling the frog, just with a few years' setback. In this timeline, setting off the riots and endless lockdowns has shown anyone with a brain what they're about.

Trump's true greatest accomplishment hasn't been what he's done but what he caused the left to do. His presidency prompted them to show their true nature, reveal a great deal about their weapons and tools (from Antifa to NGOs and the MSM) and take public stances that horrify average people. He even seems to have driven many leftists insane; see the video of Keith Olbermann.

The Democrats' efforts to depose Trump have made it clear just how little regard they have for the people they supposedly serve.

Here's a fun game, look at the YouTube comments sections for any Trump ad that reaches multiple millions of views, such as this one:


What you're most likely to see is:

  • Comments saying the ad's quality is low (I don't know why, it seems pretty ok to me)
  • Comments complaining about the ad's fearmongering tone (which is pretty hilarious, considering)
  • Comments about the state of the comment section
  • Comments about the "horror movie trailer" vibe of the ad (which ties into the fearmongering tone)
  • Comments complaining that the ad is "childish" or otherwise "unpresidential"
  • General political argument autism (if you go far enough down)
And I don't know why, but I just can't shake off the feeling that most of these comments come from people too young to vote, bots, or Twitter leftists who won't vote anyway.

As an aside, Trump videos with below a million views general have much more positive comment sections.

Reminds me of the corona news video comment sections. Maybe I'm a schizo but the prevalence of comments about the comment section or random off topic on top lead me to think YouTube manipulates or allows other groups to manipulate the comment rating algorithm on certain kinds of videos. Anything that counters the select narrative gets buried. Lots of first name last name no content accounts

First name last name no content=/=bot IMO, most people don't make content or give a shit about anonymity these days. Hell, (slight PL) I have a first name last name account and all I've ever posted in the past 5 years were clips.

I'm going to double down on my pre-riots prediction that the % of Bernie voters who goes to Biden will be the same % that went to Hillary (about 75%).

Actually, I think he'll pick up even more. Bernie voters in 2016 thought of themselves as anti-establishment, and were willing to give Trump a try (getting him 12%). Bernie voters in 2020 were cucks supporting a turncoat candidate, and already hated Trump. Voting for Biden is easier for them than it would've been voting for Hillary.

I just hope the exit polling covers the same question this year. It was more relevant to be asked in 2016 when the Dems only had 2 major candidates, instead of the 22 person shitshow this year.

Correct. In 2016 Bernie was an anti-establishment working class candidate. This year he was just a woke puppet with a bit of "Democratic Socialist" flavoring. Bernie himself said the same things as always, but the campaign around him was full of SocJus zombies, totally unlike 2016.

The 2016 Bernie campaign was basically the last gasp of the non-woke left. Bernie's campaign was probably the primary cause of the neoliberal Dems completely selling out to woke ideology. Bernie stood for all the things the traditional Democrat base wanted; the only counterargument they had for him was that he was a fucking white male.

This was demonstrated by the fracture of Democratic Underground, a forum for liberal Democrats. In 2016 the Bernie movement had a huge presence on DU, but the site owners backed Hillary along with the rest of the Dem establishment. They blatantly discriminated against Bernie supporters in moderation, and eventually banned them all from the site, citing sexism and racism, the usual woke sins. The Bernie supporters went to found another forum called Jackpine Radicals. From that point on DU was 100% woke. Before that posters could actually disagree about things like white people being inherently racist.

Go to a controversial video and the comments served on the top will all have a certain political bent and not be the top voted.

Do they realize we only do the electoral vote to keep the red places that make all of the money (rather than just playing with it) from leaving? Have fun without food, materials, manufacturing, or energy!

Here's my current 270 to win game.

I have New York in Red because I desperately want to see a solid Blue state defect. Even if it's by mere singular digits. They say "every vote counts" right?

And I'm 99% sure Biden isnt carrying New Hampshire. He won 5th place in that states Primary. No one there is "settling for him." If NH goes, so does the rest of Maine.

Edit: And nevermind Ohio being in Blue which I just noticed as I edit... Ohio is clearly going to be Trump.

It simply blows my mind that Biden is apparently in a double digit lead nationally against Trump.

Considering the crowds, the viewership, etc ... How is Biden ahead, exactly?

I don't know man. Maybe there's enough people out there to get Biden elected, but I just don't see it happening considering everything else outside of the polls. The polls say one thing, but literally everything else says otherwise.

I firmly believe that the map would have looked like this had fucking COVID not happened.

Hell, there was a lot of controversy going on in Virginia before the coof concerning the governor's gun grabs. I think that Trump had a really good chance at turning VA red again. Then, COVID happened, and Northam's anti-Second Amendment policies just disappeared from the news, killing any and all momentum for people to vote red.

Ted Cruz happened. Trump ran unopposed and I guess the religious types who like Pence and Cruz decided to stay home is my best guess otherwise Trump had over 90% vote share in the 2020 editions.

However the GOP robbed us of a chance to see how much could Trump run up in Minnesota. They also did not hold the Arizona primary so we don't know how much of a jump would there have been as Texas had a giant jump.

It is interesting to note though that Trump is stable in Ohio. However he has probably lost enthusiasm in Massholistan, Rhode Island, Delaware and Conneticut. States where he probably wasn't going to win anyways, I would have swapped out all four worthless states for a primary in Arizona and Minnesota.

Also throw in Illinois though I am surprised his enthusiasm has gone down there, not that he was going to win there anyways.

Indiana is strong Trump, it's similar to Iowa in regards to farming but more religious. Pence was their governor, so there is some name recognition.
You still have Indy being the lone blue city, but the state not having any riots (only chanting and the like) shows the strong conservative hold.

I would be hesitant to call it as red as KY or TN, but if Iowa were red than most likely so would Indiana.

In that thread I saw another tweet that explains it in detail.
Ee_uWeiWoAE88sb.jpeg

Democrats need to understand that if they ever want to win again they need to tell their electorate the truth. The polls tightened in 2016 but instead of Dem voters having to confront the fact that they were never really up, they attribute all the tightening to the Comey letter. So what should have been a learning opportunity just reinforces their usual behavior because they can explain it away with a black swan event.
