At this point, o one cares what Trump has to say. All we care is what the experts say is safe. Politics do matter to people right now. All we care about is the safety our our families and when it's safe to go back to work. | |

Semi-related in terms of how we will vote in November: Trump seemed to respond to the results Tuesday morning between attacks on the country’s governors for questioning his authority as president. “GET RID OF BALLOT HARVESTING, IT IS RAMPANT WITH FRAUD. THE USA MUST HAVE VOTER I.D., THE ONLY WAY TO GET AN HONEST COUNT!” tweeted Trump, overlooking the fact that in Wisconsin absentee ballots are required to include a photocopy of a person’s identification card, and there has been no evidence of wide-scale or organized fraud involving mail-in votes. There is a push by Democrats for nationwide voting by mail to be implemented in advance of November’s general election as a backup plan if the coronavirus is still making in-person voting a public health hazard. (Poll workers from Florida and Illinois have died of COVID-19 after working the two states’ March 17 primaries.) Trump has resisted, claiming the practice is ripe for fraud despite evidence to the contrary, including the fact that a number of states already ...te-by-mail. Trump himself voted by mail in last month’s Florida primary. Last month, Trump directly stated that an increase in voting would hurt his party, saying proposed reforms would result in “levels of voting, that if you ever agreed to it you’d never have a Republican elected in this country again.” The ballot harvesting Trump alluded to in his tweet is the process of an organizer or volunteer collecting ballots. There is one recent instance of ballot harvesting altering an election, but it wasn’t to the benefit of Democrats. In 2018, an operative working for GOP congressional candidate Mark Harris tampered with ballots in the race for North Carolina...l District. The results, in which Harris led by 905 votes over Democrat Dan McCready, were never certified by t...tion board. A new election was held in September 2019, and McCready lost narrowly to Dan Bishop, a GOP state senator. When Trump was asked about the fraud in February 2019, he said, “I condemn any election fraud” before pivoting to accusing Democrats of ballot tampering. Trump and his administrat...acy theory that there were millions of illegal votes in California to explain why he lost the national popular vote to Hillary Clinton in 2016. Republicans have raised suspicions about the results of the 2018 midterms, when election-night leads by some GOP candidates evaporated after additional ballots were counted. There is no evidence historically to support Trump’s assertion, and multiple studies have found instances of voting fraud to be vanishingly small. A comprehensive 2014 report examining yea... instances of credible fraud out of 1 billion votes cast. A survey of news reports after the 2016 election by the Washington Post turned up four reported instances. In February 2017, White House adviser Steph...d ABC News there was evidence that voters from other states were bused into New Hampshire. So far the administration has not provided such evidence.

I know it's early, but.... Biden Leads Trump in Michigan, Pennsylvania: Campaign UpdateEmma Kinery
Bloomberg•April 22, 2020
(Bloomberg) -- Joe Biden has significant leads over President Donald Trump in Michigan and Pennsylvania, two Fox News polls showed. The polls both found the presumptive Democratic nominee leading the incumbent president by 8 points in the swing states, which could have a decisive role in the November election. Fox found Biden ahead in Michigan 49% to 41% and leading 50% to 42% in Pennsylvania. In Pennsylvania, 51% of respondents said they disapproved of Trump’s performance, compared with 47% who approved. The result was identical in Michigan. Trump narrowly won both states in 2016. The polls were conducted April 18-21 and had a margin of error of 3.5 percentage points. Nationally, Biden leads Trump 48% to 42% in the RealClearPolitics polling average.

bullshit. the chart you posted was intentionally cut of after a few days, and at the time you posted it was already wayyyy outdated. stil you choose to take an old one and ignore the current numbers, in your primitive attempt to deceive and manipulate
typical sharpie MAGA dipshit method
fact remains, that the numbers during the first few days from your chart were only lower because whiny bitch and the most inefficient health care service in the whole Western world, simply did not do enough testing! yes, less tests = less infections... bravo!!!! here's a cookie LMFAO

The good news is that recent polls show Biden lead in a few battleground states.
Trump's poor poll numbers... NovemberPump up Trump or go after Biden? Top Republicans are advocating different strategies for a struggling president to win reelection.

Here is an interesting anecdotal observation.
I work for a major online retailer and have seen a pretty good uptick in Trump mech (hats, banners, pins, shirts, novelty and GOP pins.)
I have seen virtually ZERO Biden merch in stock, much less sold.
.
Sure Trump is THER President do the USA and has been so for 3 years, but we had seen a lot of Bernie merch selling and shipping. Even Hillary merch.
I know this may not mean much, but i doubt many/any dems are excited to go out and wear Biden merch, much less buy it.
.
I hate to keep sounding negative on Biden, but all he has going is that he is not Trump.
Hopefully that’s enough. | |

^ But you get what I mean though. There is just no excitement for the man. And I am positive you will be hearing that a lot in the next few months. Unlike Trump fans who have no standards, there are those of us who worry how this happened. Don’t get me wrong I 100% like where Biden is coming from and what he represents, I worry about the party. A Democratic Party with the batshit element of so called progressives. We have Popular figures like Bernie Sanders who always went out of his way to lambast “big pharma” and now here we are looking desperately at Big Pharma to provide tests and a vaccine. How do you embrace popular cult personalities like Bernie and Trump who you know are nuts? Biden represents what the Democratic Party needs to be, but he is not the right candidate and is way past his prime. . I like Bernie and AOC on many levels, but also know enough that him and AOC are wrong. There is a balance. Democrats have always been wild cards but the party still somehow gravitated to the middle. Somewhere along the way the crazies took over both on the right and left. | |

The excitement should come from the act of voting this cancer out of office and securing his place behind bars where he belongs. The fact that people don't feel this shows that they are not paying attention and that is precisely what is wrong with this country. People should be OVER THE MOON to be able to cast their ballot, for ANYONE but rapistdonald, and in doing so, eject this monster and truly make this country great again.

An interesting aside about a lot of Trump merch, the packaging usually covers the entire thing as to be discrete when it’s being handled and delivered. As if it was porn or a dildo or something you don’t want the neighbors getting a peek at.
. I have an older friend who is a trump supporter and she told me she wouldn’t display anything around the house to show it. Like her dirty little secret. I think there are a lot of folks who feel that way. [Edited 4/29/20 13:40pm] | |

Really disturbing that they feel the need to have merchandise with his likeness and slogans on it. Such a sickening cult of losers. "hey if you found out someone gave you a fake $20 would you be mad?"It is in fact #TRUTH.Mocha ObsidianˈN(y)o͞obēən Cocoa Noir... | |

Religious merch is very popular.
Which is kinda ironic as the bible itself specifically frowns upon merch and idolatry. Surprised Jesus’s lawyers haven’t filled cease and desist over his likeness on so much bootleg merch [Edited 4/30/20 0:46am] | |
