Trump Derangement Syndrome - Orange man bad. Read the OP! (ᴛʜɪs ᴛʜʀᴇᴀᴅ ɪs ʟɪᴋᴇ ᴋɪᴡɪ ғᴀʀᴍs ʀᴇᴠɪᴇᴡs ɴᴏᴡ) 🗿🗿🗿🗿

So what it is? When he tested positive that was karma for not taking the virus seriously but now that he is negative actually he never had it which means that the virus is not that serious?

Like Joe Biden, the story is whatever you want to tell at that specific moment in time to fill the narrative.

Like any narcissist, they get pissed off and blame YOU if you mention that the story they are telling is different than the last time. You are obviously misremembering or misinterpreting what they said.
 

lol he says its because they used a video of him without permission
What a fucking colossal retard. Not only did Fauci singlehandedly cause more economic damage than any individual in human history, but he has no idea what intellectual property is, or what fair use is, or what a cease and desist letter is, or even what a lawyer is:

Asked by CNN’s Jake Tapper whether the ad should be taken down, something the Trump campaign says it has no intention of doing, Dr. Fauci said, “I think so.”
In an interview with The Times on Monday, Dr. Fauci said that he had been unsuccessful so far in having the ad removed.
“I wouldn’t know who to contact in the campaign to tell them to pull it down,” he said. “I spoke to someone who I know well in the White House to figure it out for me and tell me how to get it down. I haven’t heard back from them yet.”
 
The more Fauci speaks the more I think he's failing upwards.
This guy royally fucked up the AIDS crisis to make money for some friends of his, then hounded several people out of the virology field for proving that retroviruses were being accidentally given to people in vaccine trials due to improperly quarantined mice (which would have caused billions in liability for the companies he was buddy-buddy with). Now he's backing Remdesivir which is coincidentally made by a company he's heavily invested in, despite the drug being more dangerous than COVID. The guy is a grade A stooge and sociopath who only cares about the people paying him.

This is the first I've heard of all this. Where the fuck did he come from for Trump to have kept him?
 
As others have said you'd have to assume most of the mainstream pollers are being paid good money to try and influence public opinion. Which ironically could backfire on them as lazy millenials think Biden is a shoe-in. Just like 2016. While Trump voters who might obtain their news outside the mainstream, hear of Trump supporters being shot in the head at point blank range and the mainstream saying nothing.
Polling is a bit of a bedbug for me. The reason for the ... interesting results is two fold.
1: Systemic issues with polling. The constant oversampling of democrats is often pointed at, but its not as simple as just "There are more democrats in the sample". Any polling will weigh in the over sample and counter weight it to bring it into line with registered norms. The problem is this:

Say you have 100 Democrats and 50 republicans polled. The counter weight is simple here, halve the democrats individual value. Alright. Now, in this poll, 30% of democrats said they'd likely vote, and 50% of republicans did. So now you have 30 likely democrat voters, and 25 republicans, Alright, they provide their weight, so you halve the likely voters for democrats making it 15/25, right?
No. No they don't. They factor in the population in their weighting, but often forget/are too lazy too/are just idiots and don't change the result of the percentages.

So they get data that says, in effect, "60% of democrats will vote, and only 50% of republicans". Now, rarely is it THIS blatant, usually they do weight it slightly, but the weighting ITSELF is all off. Or they fudge the numbers a little and you get 51% democrats and 50% republicans. Its not just "They over sample" its "they over sample, and totally hash correcting the over sample"

Now, the 2: is easier to explain. The Shy Trump Vote is very real. The above issue is usually sorted by some secondary or even tertiary levels of statistical bullshit which is basically on giant kludge. These flaws have been there for decades now, but they were never made super apparent until... the shy Trump vote.

Lets ignore over sampling for now, lets say we have 100 each Democrats and Republicans. Now lets add in 40 Undecided Voters. So we have 100D-100R-40U. Normally, its assumed in political polling that undecided voters will break evenly for candidates. so you'd end up with 120D-120R. But, with the Shy Trump Voter, you have a lot of Undecideds being Secret Trump (ST) voters. So in actuality the math is saaaay 100D-100R-10ST-30u. Which, assuming the break even, means the final tally is 115D-135R,


All this doesn't even factor IN people who end up voting for the party they are not registered as (Polling universally assumes all registered democrats and all registered republicans vote for their party, based on Likelihood of voting percentages).

So, in summary: The percentages of Liklihood to Vote are off, usually by about 4-5 %, the Shy Trump Vote means that undecideds won't break down evenly, and Never-Trumpers and #WalkAway people totally fuck the base math to begin with.
 
If public schooling taught me anything, it's that if it's not a cliff notes, graphic novel, or movie, the average student won't understand it, or bother to try.

Ultimately the issue is that you can't teach someone who doesn't want to be taught. And public schools tend to make learning as dull, unapproachable, and desirable as going to the dentist for a tooth cleaning... sure, some people enjoy it, but most will put it off as much as possible because it's unpleasant.

And oh sure, everyone remembers those one or two decent teachers they had that actually made subjects approachable and interesting, I know I do. And you remember them because they were such a departure from the norm, a bunch of bored elderly women droning out of the teacher's edition of the textbook. It's definitely not helped by parents not being very involved in their childrens' learning, a problem deliberately exacerbated by a blitz of social conditioning convincing everyone that kids will learn what they need in school, meanwhile both parents definitely need to be working or you don't need two parents at all. And then, of course, when the society that's been set up to leave public schools as the only real path of learning for children fails, it's the parents' fault, or the fault greedy people who didn't want to pay 90% taxes'.

Yeah, the average student has a short attention span, no interest in learning, and just sees school as an obstacle they have to get through to start living their life. And that is, quite arguably, by design.

Yet any mention of how being smart/educated is a giant negative in the black community is seen as racist.

Every black kid that actually likes reading and learning is treated as a "Carlton", but mentioning that is bad.
