Biden needs to capitalize by campaigning in Florida.

This matters. Flags matter (believe it or not) as symbols. They're abandoning the flag of the United States of America in favor of another symbolic flag, one that doesn't represent this country and what many of us believe to be some of our core values (or at least what they should be), and instead stands as a symbol to racism. It may have started as a way to show support for law enforcement, but its presence amongst white supremacists isn't unknown.

That the Trump campaign decided to USE THAT INSTEAD OF THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA at a political rally, matters.

Because he's not the President of the United States. He's the President of the States and Americans Who Support Him.

Which makes a shitty initialism by the way, PotSaAWSH.

Trump Pulls Florida Ads as Cash-Poor Campaign Enters Final Week

Obama is on his way there, again, pretty sure. And I just posted something about Biden doing a bunch of Spanish langauge ads.

Is Florida going blue? Biden's only up by two there.

The pandemic is over, Trump ended it!

And I'm glad we have a comment from noted science and technology expert Ivanka Trump...what the fuck does she actually do again other than be eye candy for daddy?

So I guess garbage tier memes are campaign ads for the Trump campaign. But unsurprisingly, they're doing everything they can to violate Facebooks new rules on political advertising, including ads that imply that Trump won the election going out ahead of the election actually happening.

[Milchshake]

One big fuck up, the GOP announcing loudly for a year, that they were going to ratfuck the election.

Which really animated Dem voters, and minority voters that got fucked in 2016.


This is remarkable .. 79% of requested absentee ballots in Wisconsin have been returned a week before the election




Stay enthusiastic! Enthuse others to get their ballots in, and early.

Does Trump have a chance of flipping Minnesota?

Either way, I think it's hilarious that Trump is so broke he has to stop trying to defend himself in Florida and is instead hedging his bets on winning states where he is trailing Biden badly save for Ohio.

Minnesota is pretty solidly blue. 538 just bumped it from Biden +8.1 to Biden +9.2 today.

Biden is up by 10 points in Minnesota.

Something tells me Trump is bad at strategy.

[Breccia]

538 says Biden is ahead by 8 and has been since mid-Sept.

So it doesn't look likely.

I've been saying for a while that Biden should exploit the, yes, ironically broke Trump by "trolling" him into playing defense, spending time and money that he doesn't have. I suggested Florida, Georgia, even Texas as states he couldn't afford to lose but close enough to flipping, that Biden attacking there would force Trump to defend.

And...he can't do that. Not anymore.

I'm not sure if Biden will actually win Florida, but with a week left, Biden sending Obama and millions in ads and Trump seemingly giving up, there's a better-than-nothing shot here. Florida's worth more than Pennsylvania and is closer to tipping than Pennsylvania. Why isn't Trump in Florida?

damn liberal socialist bastards stopping all the bailouts, funding and help for poor people during COVID!! Its all Nancy's fault!!

The Trump administration is fighting in federal court to block states from giving billions of dollars in emergency food stamps to the lowest-income Americans during the coronavirus crisis.

Residents of Pennsylvania and California have sued President Donald Trump’s Agriculture Department over a policy that has kept roughly 40 percent of households who rely on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program from receiving any emergency benefits during the pandemic. After being ordered by a federal judge last week to proceed with the payments in the Pennsylvania case, the department is continuing to appeal.

The USDA’s policy has already kept roughly $480 million in nutrition assistance out of just Pennsylvania, a state that’s suffered a particularly high unemployment rate and also is a must-win for Trump in his bid for reelection, according to a POLITICO analysis of court filings.

The Senate has adjourned until after Election Day, making it increasingly unlikely that Congress will pass a coronavirus relief bill before then

Democrats pushed a 3.3 trillion dollar bill, 2.3, 2.2, 1.9 and the senate republicans..... 500 billion....

[zEmini]

My biggest fear is Trump not accepting the results, and the fight over key states gets decided in the supreme court in Trumps favor due to vote by mail or whatever nonsense he comes up with.

Is everyone ready for a massive workers strike if that happens?

Showing support for police is not racist, and the American Flag was never abandoned.

That's not the American flag. And showing support for police is fine. Replacing the American flag with a non-American flag (that's not the American flag) is significant. Because they're using a flag that's a reactionary symbol, happily adopted by white supremacists, that speaks only to their base, not to the American people as a whole.

[Zan15]

Nope. Will be up late laughing my ass off at all the lib-tard meltdowns (again).

Infracted.

The thin blue line narrative is a fundamentally racist one which is what that flag ostensibly supports, so. *farting noise*

[CastletonSnob]

Some on Twitter are saying Trump campaigning in Minnesota is a good strategy because Minnesota is within reach for Trump.

Um, no, it's not? Trump is losing by 10 points.

[Felya]

Biden is up by 10 points in Minnesota.

He does claim to have brought back football... if it wasn’t for him, Vikings wouldn’t be having the season they are...

I miss when you guys at least pretended to be reasonable people instead of this weird theater of pretend to be completely oblivious to pretty clear posts.

[Felya]

By desecrating the flag? You think it would be applauded, if Biden came out to some alternative version of the American flag? Do you know what those red stripes that they painted black, stand for? How about the color red? They painted over valor...
