Incumbents with greater than 50% approval ratings have never lost

I'm not confident Trump will win, but I won't chalk up loss to fraud unless an Al Franken type of event is tossed into the mix of a couple razor thin states.

That’s the sentiment that I see people doing mental gymnastics with on here. “Trump wins unless the dems steal it!”



If Biden wins Tuesday night I will be more inclined to accept it. If Trump wins by decent margin then 3-5 days later it is overturned I will probably call bullshite. However, I think Trump wins by such a margin that the left won't be able to cheat their way out of a loss.

will you attribute the loss purely to fraud


I would attribute it to fraud if it were a fraudulent election and I would attribute it to the will of the voters if it were a fair election. Obviously.

Biden going to Atlanta on Tuesday, that’s not panic that’s aggressive


He can go to Atlanta all he wants, but Atlanta has been voting heavily Democratic for longer than any of us have been alive. A candidate wins Georgia outside of Atlanta.

I nominate yours for the least "scientific" post of the day. I could tell you why 2020 Presidential polling is largely worthless, but this diatribe gives your phony pretensions to be all about "the science" away:




I doubt you reply to this post or you say a) do your own research because you don’t actually have anything substantive, but I’m open to getting my mind changed if you have anything of substance.

*sigh*

I’m not going to sunshine pump.

The odds are not in Trump’s favor and it makes zero sense to act like a landslide is going to happen.

This board sounds like the Hillary voters from 2016.

At least in 2016, this board wasn’t off the rails with its expectations.

I’m voting for Trump, but I see nothing wrong with tempering my expectations.

I think that is simply wishful thinking on this board’s part.


59 precincts in Philly went 100% Obama in 2012... Do they really think Philly is in jeopardy? You can’t win PA without a big majority of Philly. Candace is doing some work in Philly. #walkaway.

Just saw photos of Biden’s Pennsylvania rally, it looked to me more of a -pull up and watch from your car- type of deal. But there were some people gathered around the stage...I’d say at most 50. Altogether I’d say the rally had no more than a couple thousand people if you count everyone in their vehicles. If rally sizes are any indication, yeah they better be scared

If you ask very politely and call me Sensei, I'll consider explaining to you why your faith in the coastal elite orthodoxies of the polls is misplaced. But Your Humble Pimpness doesn't generally respond to snarky/disingenuous comments .

Scruffy I can respect this and anything can happen on election day (2016 proved that).

However, like I've said before I'm just not seeing the indicators that there is any enthusiasm for Biden other than some people simply will hate Trump no matter what he does.

"There are more good men than evil."

I think the "good men" will prevail on 11/3.

I’ll call you Dwight and we can call it even.

Do you have info or no? It mostly seems like you’re just grand standing.
