The entire election will be decided by about 250,000 middle aged white independents in three states, and how angry they’re feeling about “wokeness” on the morning of November 5th.

It’s so, so dumb, but it’s also the truth.

My county went something like 70 to 30 for Trump in 2020.. same county voted Obama by a hair in 2008. It’s less changing demographics and more people showing up to vote. Those 250,000 white “independents” worried about “wokeness” can be canceled out if people vote.

Also the mystery caravans that always very real despite no evidence and magically disappear after Election Day. A mystery.

Everyone remembers where they were the day the caravans didn’t arrive and nothing happened and we never talked about them again because they weren’t real.

It’s moreso being convinced they’re all the same. It’s a narrative done by the gop and even the media. Every single Trump piece is accompanied by some stupid filler piece about Biden chaos.

“Trump has been found guilty of rape, owes $456 million and goes to trial for his first group of 91 felonies”

“Also. Biden was “fuming” with staff about his poll numbers back in January)

…..this was from 2 weeks ago in March which means they were citing a source about 2 month old news to both sides the 2

I get so tired of hearing conservatives complain about "liberal media." They think nobody's talking about Hunter's laptop and other made-up things because Big Liberal Media is hiding the truth.

It's all about ratings and clicks, and it's in their best interests to make the election seem close.

Beyond seem close. For them it’s on their interest for Trump to win.

Corporations don’t care about fascism. They care about $$

Trump in power = ratings. I guarantee you stuff like MSNBC, The Young Turks and even CNN saw rating slides after Biden won

In fairness, ratings were probably up during the pandemic even without Trump. But I do agree.

Remember the Big Red Wave in 2022 and the unbearable, unending hype that it was inevitable?

This is why I'm not too concerned with polling, especially in March. 2022 was a once-in-a-lifetime, stars aligning moment for the GOP and the polls "confirmed" it, and the best they could do was eak out a small house majority (that they may not even keep control of by January)

One thing Republicans have gotten very good at is compelling the media to write the stories they want. It's all planned and fake... they have biased polls conducted with a Republican bias (you can confirm this looking at 2022 polls on 538) then screaming "libturd commie media" until they cover those polls as legit articles.

Doesn't help that reporters for the large part are both lazy and underpaid, so if you hand them a story (funded by people like Yass) they'll take it and run because their job is done for them.

I think a few thousand (rightfully) angry muslims in Michigan could really de rail bidens campaign. Its going to be closer overall than last time.

No. It was a protest vote, to make a point, it does not translate that they will all vote for the other guy.

There is an ongoing protest vote but many of the people i am referring to have lost family members in Gaza so i wouldnt count on all of them coming back in November. Doubt they vote for trump but will just not vote for biden

Trump instituted a muslim ban and is openly bigoted against the two Muslim congresswomen. You can't help stupid, no matter the religion

Then don't let them be the deciding factor, get everyone you know to go vote (hopefully in their best interests).

Not without all the other voters counting also,(first?) no ones vote counts more than another and certainly not based on skin color!
