As silly as taking screen shot with the only identifying information being the CNN logo, and thinking someone should attribute it to anyone except CNN.
Inside jokes only work when the audience is “inside”. When they aren’t, it’s no-ones fault but your own when they take it off in an entirely different direction than intended.
25,000 people are waiting for POTUS in Minnesota. Democrat potentates there are trying to (all but) shut the rally down by limiting crowd size to 250 (what a laugh!).
So what’s a POTUS to do? Trump is going anyway.
Trump is so cool. He does not stand for Democrat left wing BS. Word is this is winning Trump votes from young people BIG TIME!! They see Biden as very old and very much in favor of shutdowns. You need to consider shutdowns impact young and old differently:
For fossils like me shutdowns are not a huge deal. But when I was young that would not have been the case at all. Shutdowns are far more costly to and impactful for persons in the prime of their lives. And those people are viewing Trump, quite correctly, as their liberator.
Biden is in process of losing votes from young people upon whom he was counting.
ETA
Neglected to mention the obvious:
The aforementioned 250 person Minnesota maximum is not a problem for Biden whatsoever. Biden cannot draw flies to his rallies. He could not assemble a crowd of 25,000 to hear him speak if he offered to PAY the people!!
Achievement unlocked. Get those votes locked in as quick as possible, to minimize the harm as the dirt keeps getting uncovered.
It’s off-topic, but this is my biggest opjection to the whole vote by mail and “early voting” stuff. Everyone is casting their vote with different information. “Election Day” means that while you can still believe or ignore whatever you want, everyone has the same information when voting.
Biden (or Trump for that matter, this isnt a partisan comment) could literally be dragged off in handcuffs this weekend, and an extremely large portion of voters would not even have the option of considering that in their selection. It’s akin to the star quarterback leading his team to a 20 point lead at halftime, then going home and just hoping the score doesnt get close in the second half. Election day is the final buzzer, I cant understand how so many people are ok with bailing early.
I alluded to this, I made mention of it, up thread. Knew it could happen.
Word now is coming that the NY Times bird cage liner so-called “newspaper” is planning a bombshell “October surprise” announcement, at President Trump’s expense, for release tomorrow evening or early on Sunday. Details are not yet known.
Do not ask me what the Times might have that is new or earth shaking. They have hit Trump already with everything they have. But keep in mind they are a dark force, a dagger aimed squarely at America’s heart. If they think they can bring traditional America down nothing will stand in their way, and in particular the truth will be of no importance to them whatsoever.
The lefties at the NY Times can smell it all fading away. They realize Biden’s prospects are dimming and that he is unlikely to prevail next week. All stops will be pulled. No lie will be too big.
At the fetid NY Times the ends more than justify the means. It works like this:
They release a bogus story at the last gunfire allowing Trump no opportunity to shoot it down. The American mainstream media propaganda arm of the DNC picks the story up from the Times and ballyhoos it to the skies for three days on all of their platforms.
It’s all BS but it could shift some votes in Biden’s favor.
Lol. Whatever happened to :“Why do you care if Russia planted the information and a crackpot conducted an ‘interview’?? You should still look at it and pretend it’s real, go to Twitter to conduct your own ‘research’! Think for yourselves, sheeple!”
Cognitive dissonance?
President Trump has announced completion of 400 miles of border wall. This includes massive upgrades to earlier, easily penetrated, border fencing.
The goal by year’s end is a total of 535 miles of new or upgraded wall, all in highly critical border regions which gave the most problems in the past.
Should Biden win next week you can expect this wall to be torn down, or at least breached, in compliance with Biden’s open borders policy goals. Let’s hope that does not happen.
No bigee. That is probably less expensive than disposing of the old, ineffective, fence on our side of the border.
What matters is that the new wall is going up, it is working to mitigate the flow of illegals, and it was opposed loudly and overwhelmingly by open borders, anti-American, Democrats.
Obama promised to uplift poorer, disadvantaged, Americans. Who knew at the time he made the promise that he was referring to Central Americans?
Because the last earth-shattering revelations were that Trump owes mortgages on his properties and he has depreciation and carry-forwards that have offset most of his taxable income.
(and “pretend it’s real” is all you, much like “drink bleach” and “all mexicans are rapists”)
I’ll bet anything that the contractor is responsible for disposing of the scrap from the project. So who cares if they give it away so they dont have to haul it? Maybe Mexico could object, if stuff is being pushed over the boarder and left, but their opinion wasnt part of this story except to say that Mexican dealers seem to be scarfing it up.
Funniest part is the ecologist who’s doing the complaining seems to want all the scrap hauled to the dump.
You are mischaracterizing what I wrote. I don’t care about how information was obtained, be it leaked by anonymous sources or hacked. I do care about who presents the information and whether that person / organization can be trusted. Glen Greenwald and Bob Woodward can be trusted. Breitbart or some random website cannot.
It’s naive to state that everyone has the same information when voting. They could have the same information, because it’s all out there, but it does not mean they are aware of it. Plenty of voters are micro-targeted by paid campaign advertisements which are made to look like news. You really should see some of the Jordan Klepper segments on The Daily Show. I know it’s comedy and they only show the most outrageous interviews, but dam, some voters (and rally-goers) are so ignorant it is scary.
Journalistic integrity, that’s how. A respected journalist will vet his sources (they’re anonymous to everyone, but not to the journalist) and verify the information.
Haha. You are free to pretend. Trump could be ahead nationally, it’s certainly possible. But it wouldn’t take just a standard polling error (like the states that were “wrong” in 2016). It would take a historically high polling error just for him to be leading in electoral college. And an even higher error to actually be leading on overall popular basis.
The fw poll let’s you change your vote. What about the possibility the silent majority sane voters might be hiding with fake Trump responses to not discourage people from heading to the polls? Need to keep the enthusiasm up!
