Apparently Senator Sasse betrayed him or something like that. I don’t think he should have said something like this on Twitter, especially so close to the election. Some things are just best said in private.

He was on the phone with voters telling them Trump supports tyrants and is going to cause all of the Republicans to lose.

Ben Sasse thinks Trump can lose and the GOP will return to the days of HW Bush. The guy is a cuck. He literally ran away from Jack Posobiec on a street when the latter started talking to him in DC. Like literally ran. I'd like to go to Nebraska in Minecraft and show that soy boy tyranny comes from fists, not tweets.

What if the polls were actually right in 2016 and Clinton had a 90% chance of winning but by random chance we landed on the 10% and now we're living in Trump dimension?

Not that unlikely; people think 90% is a guarantee, but it's not. I saw an interview with a woman who worked on the Clinton campaign, and she said they went into election day with a 65% chance of victory, so it was probably closer to around there. Hillary was favored, but Trump was able to pull off a surprise underdog upset.

You know to be honest nowadays the religious may be a group of gay-ass fundies, but I really wanna know if that gay conversion therapy really worked. We have too many faggots running around. I've met many a girl identify as a bisexual and that horrifies me truly in terms of my future prospects.

I wouldn’t be too worried about “bisexual” girls. That’s like how you like to pay attention to both your girlfriend, and your guy friends. You both eventually get trained out of it

That's why I don't like these probabilities for elections. You only get one. You're not going to get multiple elections and see how many shake out.

The prosecutor also said he retired after staying on to protect a public corruption case against a Republican congressman.

Dipshits quit like this all the time and throw a "scathing rebuke" on their way out the door. I really don't care what the New York Times or their newly-sourced prat have to say about Barr because I don't value the opinions of dipshits. Even if he actually believed what he was saying, his way to "protect the country" from a man who he thinks is performing a hostile, dictatorial take-over of the country is to resign from his post and go into retirement?

"Oh no we're being taken over by Hitler and hit Nazi stooges! Yawn! Anyways I'm old and sleepy now, please send my retirement checks to the Bahamas."

Just go quietly fuck off and be old on a beach somewhere, Jesus Christ.

I'd also like to add that prosecutors are often the dumbest lawyer in the room. They have every advantage in court, often against poor people who can't afford anything more than a public defender and still manage to lose sometimes. Also of the 2 main ticket candidates/their Vp's, one of them was a prosecutor, and she is as unlikable and dumb as they come.

Edited for spelling

Well I'm back in Orlando. Had a very lovely time at that rally. Of course, my anti-Trump sister got offended because I had my mask down in the video where I was approaching the auditorium. But I was still far away from the big crowd, and I was stopped to do the Pledge of Allegiance. Then came the national anthem which I frankly do not know by heart (I had Bahamian National anthem growing up). I had my mask on for 95% of the whole thing.

These liberal children need to grow up.

Anyway. Trump might've actually pointed to me as I cheered for a certain thing he said. But I didnt invest too much into that. After all, he might've just been pointing in my general direction, but I was at least 25 feet from him. I actually got a great spot in a corner with tons of Elbow Room.

10/10. Glad I saw him.

They also played my favorite song Gloria in the preshow.

Basically. Apparently the polling companies know this. They only get a 5% response rate which it's enough to be a filter all of its own. Baris and Barnes were talking about it

Think of it like a bowl in a ball. There is a natural state to which the system has always formed back to. Culture is like that. The biology, history, and other inherent traits of a people naturally create a culture. They naturally create a mean to which people revert. There is inertia, yes, but it keeps the ball at the bottom. The ball never goes uphill unless someone makes it.

I live in a very blue part of purple state and haven't seen a single Biden sign at all in my neighborhood until today when suddenly every third house seems to have one, and they weren't there yesterday. Curious timing.

Strong likelihood of the ground game ramping up, and the campaign handing out signs.

If this is the case, I wonder if Biden's support is really so tepid that people literally don't go out of their way to spend $20 and get a sign (but that would honestly apply to most normies).

I think some things to consider- are these new voters, or just voters casting their ballots earlier? The latter means cannibalizing election day votes.

Another thing is to consider what societal phenomenon would drive people to vote early- Coronavirus fears, TDS- or just a desire to get it done with?

After MONTHS of "in-person voting kills people"? Is there really a question that there will be more mail-in voting this year?
