The polls are well within the margin of error for Biden and the election is 4 months away. So you believe Biden will lose every swing state? Even the ones with Democratic Governors and Senators? Like most people you’re interpreting the polls incorrectly and no one can predict 4 months out what will happen.


Biden will not win in GA again so he must run the table on: WI, PA, & MI where he is behind outside the margin of error is most polls, Biden must win in all three.

If you can’t condemn this language and refuse to acknowledge any connection to what happened yesterday then you have no standing to condemn language from the “other side.”


A tale in two posts:

Read on Twitter


Democrats have been nothing but gracious to Trump almost getting assassinated, we would not see the same thing from Republicans if this had happened to Biden.


Meanwhile the right wing like Alex Jones and Nick Fuentes have been going after Trump- not openly supporting project 2025 or it was because of what was revealed in the Epstein papers about Trump raping a child alongside Jeffrey Epstein. Fuentes went as far to say that no one would even care if Trump died.

Biden is within the margin of error in the average of polls in WI, MI, and PA.

He is on average down 3% in GA and AZ.

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

The fix was in from the start. This is insane and a failure of the Justice system to not have her kicked off of the case.

yeah you have to ask for another judge at this point, this is just ridiculous, she's making a mockery of the court system

We always knew Cannon was goin to torpedo the case, it was just a matter of time. Clarence Thomas again gave assistance from the bench agai by suggesting that the Special Prosecutor appointment be challenged, and that’s what Trump’s team argued.

It will simply be re-filed. On the flip side, it just is another delaying tactic and makes it more unlikely a trial will happen before the election.

Trump makes a mockery of the system and there’s literally one simple trick to keep him from doing that (no not what happened at his rally yesterday).

This is a good example of why you shouldn’t assume polls have any type of predictive power. You mean to tell me Biden is going to lose all of the battle ground states yet the Democratic Senators in those states will win by high single digits and in some cases double digits?

I’d assume that would be a record level of ticket splitting for this to be true. Something else is going on.

I think it's safe to just close your eyes and wait until November. Worry about polls at this stage in the campaign, especially this one, is about as good for your mental health as checking your weight every day.

Even if Trump loses I think there's just been so much damage done. I don't see this country every really coming back from this regardless of who wins. Kind of like climate change - we're past the point of no return now, now just try and make your kids as comfortable as you can while their world burns.
