Tell Me Something Good


I get the fear, but despite heavily stacking polls to advantage trump, and avoid underestimating his pull, like 2016, trump is trailing everywhere that matters. I, personally, believe we could add 1-3 points to state level polls for Biden. And, those are just the legitimate non-partisan polls. I do not know how to unskew fake propaganda polls (trafalgar, Rasmussen, Susquehanna). But, that is just my hunch, based on the demographics of 2020 v. 2016, so far.

There are no hidden trump voters. They are loud, proud, and violent. If anything, there are closeted Biden voters. Like Lady G, taking a hardline family values/anti-gay stance in public, while all the while checking in nightly at the miscreant hotel of self loathing.

I see these red hatted flag waving moron parades, but, when you look closely at the truck beds, over the ladies on the mud flaps behind the dice in mirror something else becomes clear, there is usually a quiet one with his head down slinking behind his swastika covered shirtless red faced uncle/brother.

Take solice knowing that he, like the loud ones, gets to vote alone and no one will ever know his secret. Hopefully, we will know Lyndseys' soon, not because he should be ashamed, but because he shames those who also should not be ashamed.

stuck it out in the primary discussion groups are not feeling fear. We are confident if everyone does their job or a little more, we win.

Confident that we will win. Just do your job and vote. If you can do more, turn a non-voter, drive Folks to the polls, make sure your family have all voted etc., the better you might feel.

You don't hear much about republican voters who are going to defect and it seems like there may be a significant number who will do so. Not all of them are MAGAts and, though they may have given him a chance, they may regret that a lot now, seeing what he has done.

We could add that to the tally.

Now, where is the Rufus song I expected?

with mental health.

Also, her public statements are similar to this one: Lady GaGa tells LGBT Community: 'I would take a bullet for you.'

https://www.cnn.com/2019/06/28/us/lady-gaga-bullet-trnd/index.html

All your posts referencing unsourced quotes from Lady G are your own words and should be deleted, shame on you. Everyone sees what you're doing, you're not fooling anyone.

...of 2016, they're overcompensating in favor of Trump. If that is the case, given the current state of polls, Biden could be up by a lot more. But, and I've repeated this a million times, Biden only has to do better than HRC by 77,744 votes. That's it. And if the early vote totals are accurate, and the number of first-time voters (Or those who sat out 2016 entirely) is accurate, Trump may not get above the Mendoza line in the electoral college.
