According to blue check marks on Twitter that poll is an outlier.

But we'll see. All of the other polls look great though.

Evidently I was wrong ... the new NYT polls make me *feel* better, but apparently sleep is not an option.

Temper tantrum.

Basically how Trump got elected in the first place.

Exactly. It’s why they are doing it now. In their eyes if it’s ok for the BLM protesters it’s ok for them. Same reasoning behind the shit in Texas with the Biden campaign bus. “See how scary it is libs when people threaten you?!???”

Every single thought process on the Trump train is reduced down to the most base emotions of victimization. It’s amazingly childish. And they will sit there and call everyone else snowflakes.

I’ve been forced to get in politics discussions at work over the last two weeks and I fucking hate it. Surprise surprise but at the manager level in heavy industry in the south there’s a ton of trump support. I’ve heard repeatedly that Biden is just a senile old man and the really scary one is Kamala who is “the most liberal senator.” “She’s to the left of Bernie.” Honestly it’s like being in a different reality.

Also getting close to being ready to punch the next person who says “Boy, I can’t wait for the election to be over so we can stop hearing about this corona virus.” Its fucking insane but there is a huge segment of the population that thinks it’s being over played just to hurt trump in the election. I have to calmly point out to them that all these other countries in the world that are also locking down completely and taking massive actions aren’t going to go through that just to help the us media take down trump. And the response almost always is “oh yes they would. They hate trump.”

And in the next sentence, they will say that the rest of the world finally respects the US because they all love Trump so much and recognize he is the most amazing leader in the history of the world. They cold hold two polar opposite beliefs on everything.

"Tokyo outlaid literally billions of dollars to host the Olympics this summer, and they needed to hold it to try and recoup that money. But then there was the false narrative of the China virus, so they decided to delay it a year, costing billions more, just to humiliate Trump."

It’s telling to look at where Trump actually is popular. I saw a recent poll that had Philippines first and Israel second. So he’s a big hit in countries led by guys who do extrajudicial executions for drug offenses and imprison Muslims in an Apartheid state.

I very much regret not just taking this week off work and booking some cabin in the woods without Internet and stocking the cabin with nothing but comfort food, booze and weed and not even coming out until like Friday to learn what happens, you guys.

Add in some mushrooms and that's exactly what I did last week (Yeah the timing was off but life stuff dictated that. The mental break was still priceless.)

Dude. Hop in the car, you can be here by dinnertime.

(Okay, I have internet at the cabin, but you only have to hike a mile into the woods to get out of cell range. I'm thinking of spending a big chunk of the day up there tomorrow.)

Too depressing. If Biden wins, Trump's behavior will be off the charts and I can't think about the alternative.

Yeah, a little too serious of an occasion for a drinking game. I'm gonna be drinking heavily as it is. Don't need an excuse to drink more.

My watering hole (well, patio w/ distanced tables) is right next to the local Biden/Harris campaign office. Won't be able to drink there and ignore things.

They have boarded up entire swaths of downtown DC. I'm kind of surprised it's not getting more coverage.

I'm on record saying I don't think there's much to worry about.

But I wasn't really factoring in what will happen in many major cities if Biden loses. Shit show.
