    The nature of the right means that you can only double down on the crazy because of you aren't somebody else will. Sessions, as terrible of a person he is, got destroyed yesterday because he wasn't a total monster.
    Romney is seen as somebody reasonable today but in 2012 he did really had to go to extreme in some regards because he was being accused of being a ''moderate'' during the primary. Romney just went far enough not to look totally crazy like Santorum and Gingrich.

    Just because some of their reporting is accurate doesn't mean I have to give them a click.

    Their news division isn't bad, their opinion/entertainment division is what's sewn so much division in the country.

    No, there news division is just as bad, just not as blatant.




    I'm still waiting on the defense force to come here and explain how it is perfectly fine for Trump, some of his administration, and some of his elected supporters to commit voter fraud?

    Hey so I'm not sure if anyone has noticed but a broken clock is actually still technically correct at two points during the day. Big if true. /s

    As I learned recently in a thread I made, there are people out there who legitimately believe that changing the name of a syrup brand or sports team is somehow heralding the fall of Western civilization.

    They believe it so fervently, they're even willing to excuse all of the terrible things Trump has done, because they think the fact that he sometimes angrily tweets about all that, somehow means he's on their side.

    Most of them likely don't even know (or care) what Biden's actual stance is on certain issues. If anyone or anything is associated with the left, it is anathema.

    Biden is up 13 points in PA in the latest high quality poll - https://www.monmouth.edu/polling-ins...oll_pa_071520/

    Important to note, Hillary was up 2 at this point in time in PA.

    This sentence here...
    Biden has the advantage among voters under 50 years old (60% to 29%)
    Just... wow. The GOP has no future if they can't right this ship like right now.

    Damn - very nice.

    But Jones is still going to lose, right? AL almost elected a pedophile, by 1.5% - so if this GOP idiot isn't diddling kids, he's a shoe-in, right?

    Really interesting. The AFL-CIO just endorsed Biden's climate plan. It's not everyday that Labor endorses climate policy.
    That was on of the Green New Deal's failures, not getting Labor on board.

    Biden's ability to constantly build and expand his coalition is totally underrated.

    Yeah, but he lost his last Iron Bowl. In Alabama that is worse. Because Alabama fans hate him for being in Auburn, and Auburn fans hate him for losing to Alabama. Kiddie diddling is nowhere near as serious there.

    Assuming Biden wins, you really have to wonder where Trump supporters will go from here. Most of them didn't start off this crazy. They've gotten crazier as time goes on because of an infinite feedback loop between them and their messiah and because they felt the need to dig in rather than admit they were wrong.

    Once he leaves office, will they go back to "normal" (their version of it)? Or are they irrevocably changed?

    I would not count Jones out. The Alabama virus numbers are the same shape as Florida's, just at half the size, and getting much worse. And as Thekri stated, a lot of people hate Tuberville from when he coached at Auburn. Alabama fans hate him for his successes, Auburn fans hate him for his failures.

    The twitter feed that I... we... checked out shows that democrats in Alabama are definitely motivated. And as one of the twitter messages went: they are fighting for their lives.

    Not just their political lives, but with the virus spreading so fast there, their human lives.

    Kind of like why Biden is outperforming Clinton by 11 points right now in Pennsylvania.

    Unfortunately recent polling before the primary sees Jones down a minimum of 8 points.... This was taken before COVID reexploded so we'll see one more polls come out.

    Most likely, they will repeat the "make Biden a one term President" strategy that republicans used against Obama.

    If the defeat is a big landslide, and if the virus is still raging, then this won't get much traction. This board is getting much more anti-Trump and anti-Trump supporter as time goes on. So are a LOT of other people. When Trump supporters shout, others are now starting to shout back.

    Part of the business community is still trying to sell the idea that a Biden win will doom the stock market. This used to be a winning strategy for the republican party. This tactic is no longer working, and is being outgunned by opposing forces.

    Fox and Facebook are starting to be seen as threats to the United States. This is one of many trends that is giving me hope that Trump and Trump supporters will be decisively defeated. But it's not a guarantee by any means.

    no, they've always been crazy. Trump supporters are the people that to this day think the lukewarm neolib centrist Obama is a Kenyan born marxist, manchurian candidate. but you're right, when Trump gets the boot I don't know what these people are going to do, and that's scary.
