2020 US Election mega thread

Not sure where this idea of Trump being racist against Mexicans came from. Hasn’t anyone seen the picture of him eating a taco bowl on cinco de mayo? All the proof you need right there

I dunno, saying that he hates that black people are handling his money and that they have laziness bred into them, in my opinion anyway, is far worse than what Biden said. Trumps comments show a pretty clear genuine hatred towards them (just for being black), Biden's recent comment was dumb and insensitive, but didn't really seem to have any hate behind it. Trying to decide which comments are more racist than others is something that we shouldn't even have to discuss, but that's what the USA is working with haha.

They're both old white guys from the same era, they put their foot in their mouth all the time when held to today's PC standards in a world full of Karens, but nobody even comes close to Trump in terms of racism and corruption. Not to mention his extremely creepy relationship with his daughter - he told Rolling Stone magazine that he would bang his daughter if they weren't related ffs lol.

You're goal seeking with your conclusions though. You think Trump is a racist, so you read racism into everything he says. The "black people handling his money" thing was one source who probably lied about it.

And we actually don't have to look at that. Could just examine the policy differences between the two. But I guess that doesn't fit with most people's preconceived notions when they would have to admit just how racist the entire Democrat party is.

This was a pretty fascinating article:

Regardless of who wins these elections, the damage is done and Russia/Putin are winning. Its actually genius when you think about it... they've been able to reduce the US clout in the world without firing a single bullet.

Less than 5 months until the election. Time to get the popcorn started.

We don’t know if Trump’s approval will fall below 40 percent this time around, but it will matter whether Trump’s approval is closer to 40 percent or 45 percent in November.

Pretty weird to think that his aproval (or disapproval) has been within a couple percent for the entire presidency. I still am betting that he'll pull it back up to 45% approval, and win another term.

The statistician in me says 0% chance of Trump winning the popular vote, but 69% chance Trump wins the election

[ExtraSlow]

I agree with those nice odds.

Dont forget Biden wants to shit on the Canadian oil sector.

I don't see any way Trump wins the election if things were fair. But between voter manipulation, sketchy voting machines, electoral college, and the fox propaganda machine ... who knows who will win. Then there's the other half of the question is if he loses will he actually leave office willingly.

That doesn't affect the odds I gave.

I thought this was pretty interesting showing the support in different demographics compared to 2016.
(Positive is Democrat, negative is Republican)

From the fake news NYT: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/09/u...n-support.html

Surprised that the margin was only 5 points for Hilary in 2016. Thought it was way higher for some reason. Currently showing +10 for Biden so if you conclude the margin of error was 6 points, it’s looking like a Biden win if an election happened today. Of course lots of time for Biden to fuck that up between now and Nov. and also surprises from electoral college

Has anyone seen any polling for electoral college battleground states?

I have not yet seen this. I think most polling was focused on Democratic nomination before they turn now to the election now that the candidate is chosen. I love polling and college/seat projections. Data is neat.

College grad +20 versus no degree -21 ... makes sense when you have a president that resorts to name calling in every tweet and press conference he does.

Here comes 5 months of intense TDSing.

That just proves that the elitist leftist education system is indoctorating young Americans into the communist, anti-democracy system.

Education is the key to success.

I mean. Everyone wants it to be free. So I guess those people care?
