Ahhh PA. That is the other state. I was thinking that it was in the same boat as NC, NH, and MO. PA has a smaller Latino population. It will be more dependent on African-Americans and college-educated Caucasians.

It would be awesome to flip all 4. They need just one though.

I don't understand how zwackerm finds Michelle Obama annoying but whatever. She's arguably the most popular First Lady in history so that's the exception rather than the norm.

Agreed. Makes no sense.

Most young people dislike her for her useless cafeteria nutrition rules. Rather than serving healthier foods in the lunch line, there is a caloric limit which schools compensate for by shrinking the portions. And they can serve whatever junk they want in the linchpins, but they got rid of all the good snacks.

Most young people? You mean the millennials who love her?

I think he is referring Generation Z

There is a hashtag on Twitter. People post pictures of gross school lunches and say #thanksmichelleobama.

Voted this morning. I'll probably always vote on election day versus voting early (if able), it's just a personal preference.

Proud to be one of the six that predicted Trump would win.

Recap of my thoughts on the election:

You did call it months ago.

Well, it wasn't exactly difficult to call. In a two-horse race, one has to win.

Yes but it was two broken down nags.

It starts here.

I love the smell of burnt snowflakes in the morning.

This time I'm making my prediction in July:

Donald Trump is going to be re-elected in November 2020.


The "liberal elite" media and individuals have been wasting the past four years on puerile insults directed at Trump's physical and verbal traits rather than leveraging their higher levels of education to rationally criticize his policies. Polarization sells. Personally, I had to give up watching the late night talk shows because of the juvenile level they have sunk to in this regard. Here's an example of the same approach from one of KJ's own educated members:


Worse, this type of put-down is extended to Trump's supporters, who like it or not make up approximately half the population of the US. Attempting to humiliate your opponent in an argument is not a winning strategy, but rather it galvanizes the opposition into action. Think "basket of deplorables".


Sadly, this is already well under way, and November's results are really going to kick it into high gear.

Biden will get significantly less votes than Hillary do it really depends on how many votes Trump retains. I’d lean the odds in his favor though

I personally don’t see how anyone could live through the year 2020 and think four mores year of this is what’s best for America.

It probably won’t matter anyways. Trump will contest the election if he loses. And since his cult believes everything he says, even when there’s evidence to the contrary, they will stick by him as he transitions to Supreme Leader. So we’re all fucked either way.

Trump

- I'm picking against the "no passionate turnout" candidates (Kerry, Romney, Hillary, etc.) until one of them proves me wrong, and Biden is the definition of someone people will be staying home for, especially in covid conditions. Not buying that "people voting against Trump will make up for people having less reason to vote for Biden". This was the 2004 strategy and for Bush turnout won over anti-Bush. Berniebros end up flaccid for this candidate once again. To build a real "anti-Trump" vote you would have needed a message along the lines of "return to normalcy". But with the Democrats pushing the protests and lockdowns basically ruined that message.

- One of the reasons Bernie lost the last two primaries is under 30 voters aren't good at voting. So I question the strategy for Biden to be supporting the young radical left, both a small group and one not good at voting, compared to the middle strategy. Normally you're supposed to move to the middle in the general, not move left.

- Biden's biggest thing against Hillary is way less people are voting against him (there was as much anti-Hillary votes last time as anti-Trump), however Kamala who is semi-leaked as VP, hurts some of that. She taps into one of the most powerful forces in the US, misogyny, and comes off as a politician type personality who's saying what will get her elected not what she believes. Going from tough prosecutor to defund the police and from attacking Biden for being racist to his ally is not the most genuine.

- Now my bold prediction: Trump makes gains with black voters and latinos. The BLM protests leads to a resurgence of black conservatives who feel this is hurting black neighbourhoods and don't like all this attention on their skin color. Yes they will still be outnumbered by far by Democrat voters, but if Trump went from 8% to 15% for example, the election is over. The Democrats only direction they could go with black voters was down and this may have opened the door. Latino communities can be racist towards black people (how many Mexican comedians have made jokes about how racist they are towards blacks?). They were bombarded with messaging that Trump hates them last time and still voted 29%. Among religious black and latino voters they both are less likely to align with the woke due to there being more anti-LGBTQ views, and BLM has attacked churches.

Yeah because 2020 is Trumps fault.

It’s rich when Democrats talk about Trump questioning the election when they still haven’t accepted the loss from 4 years ago.

He cut the pandemic response team and has chosen to value his own hunches over scientific and medical experts. The man prioritizes his own image over everything and encourages the people to do the same. I don’t blame him for the first hundred thousand deaths, but the second hundred thousand are definitely on him. As are the secret police throwing people into unmarked vans. And saying “black people should learn their history or risk going back to it.” And this is just from the last week.

This really doesn’t even feel like debating politics anymore. So I’ll just go back to this:

-The anti-christ will be a man who is exceptionally arrogant and will be known for giving boastful speeches
-The anti-christ will be someone known for making public threats against people
-the anti-christ will be someone who is obsessed with winning
-The anti-christ shall worship the god of border walls
-The followers of the anti-christ shall show their allegiance by wearing his marking on their forehead.

And now Sparrow can lock the thread.
