Temper your expectations

I fear that most of you on here have been in such a self-imposed echo chamber that you just can't see the forest for the trees.

Why exactly do you believe polls in so many states can be off by 5+ points...ALL OF THEM!? This did NOT happen in 2016, despite the constant "but muh 2016". POTUS barely squeaked in with like 70K votes across 3-4 swing states (some of which was due to lucky weather.) Please be more specific than "muh rally attendance" and "muh I lied to pollsters".

I know, I know - you talk to your neighbor's wife down the street (who also lives in South Louisiana) and she loves Trump now! That is simply not the average case across the country. People are exhausted with Trump and ready to move on.

I would argue that this was mostly self-damage by Trump. Yes, the left has viciously used the virus as leverage. Yes, the left has stoked riots. Yes, the media simply refuse to report on many relevant things. But given all of that, Trump's reaction was just tactically and strategically dumb throughout. (Note, I am NOT talking about actual policy). I'm talking about pure politics.

All of this leads to what would have been a comfortable re-election being converted into a pretty resounding loss to frickING BIDEN AND HARRIS.

I think you should start making peace with the fact that we got 3 SCOTUS picks. Even just that is more than your wildest dream back in 2016.

But Trump is going to lose tomorrow - possibly in a quasi-landslide.

And, perhaps more relevantly, the Senate is likely to flip as well. Disaster.

inbefore "muh concern trolling". I'm very much concerned, but I am NOT trolling. This IS what's going to happen and we're all going to take it up the arse with taxes and much more.
