Dog, let's take a look at this again. You're right as hell about the turnout. With ONLY the counties I listed, there is 783,974 NEW voter gain from 2018 to now :eek2:. Beto lost by 214,921 votes total. So taking Beto's percentages in those counties and applying them to Joe Biden and the percentage of eligible voters who actually voted in 2016, here's how many votes Biden would gain in each of those counties...


Houston + suburb counties
Harris county...Biden +95,000 votes vs 2016
Fort Bend county...Biden +27,500 votes vs 2016
Montgomery county...Biden +15,000 votes vs 2016

Dallas + suburb counties
Dallas county...Biden +60,800 votes vs 2016
Tarrant county...Biden +69,200 votes vs 2016
Collins county...Biden +45,600 votes vs 2016
Denton county...Biden +41,500 votes vs 2016

San Antonio
Bexar county...Biden +58,400 voters vs 2016

Austin + suburb counties
Travis county...Biden +72,000 voters vs 2016
Williamson county...Biden +31,300 voters vs 2016
Hays county...Biden +13,400 voters vs 2016

El Paso county...Biden +22,200 voters vs 2016

Those 12 counties represent a +552,300 votes for Biden vs Clinton 2016. Again, Beto only lost by 214,921 votes. It only gets worse for every percentage point increase for voting turnout in those counties. Republicans have to damn near fire bombs urban voting locations on November 3rd at this point.


Somebody PLEASE tell me where I can bet on this shit?

Hopefully this is a slow motion preview of November 3rd.

Because of the last election, it seems people are more skeptical, which they should be. Skepticism negates being complacent, which in turn makes people take more initiative.

The numbers are nothing more than predictions based on certain analytics. That’s why there are multiple organizations that collect data that gives different numbers.

This is literally the same exact thing we do with weather forecasting. When people see the weatherman giving a forecast, they are watching his predictions based on multiple numerical forecast model results. Are they 100% accurate? Certainly not. But yet people expect them to be 100%.

People was seeing Hilary with something like a 75% chance of winning and got comfortable. Because 75% mean more than likely, but yet, there is still that 25%, which the 25% happened.

Nothing has changed with the data collection and analytics. What has changed is the people’s attitude towards those polling numbers.

Even with Biden up big in the numbers and historical voting on the forefront, he ain’t guaranteed to win. People still have to do their part and not solely trust the numbers.

As crazy as we think the right wing has been, they actually think the GOP has been insufficiently loyal to Trump. I know you know this because you visit redstate. It's crazy how critical they've been with Mitch McConnell. I've even heard commentators there so he's been TOO BIPARTISAN!!! smh

Beto's run laid the groundwork. The crazy thing about Texas is that in reality, it's not a red state. West Virginia is a real red state because if everyone turns out, it's going red. Texas is red because of voter apathy + voter suppression. If a majority of eligible voters show up, it goes Blue.
Same thing with Florida. There has been more registered democrats the Republicans for a long time

They were on there calling Jeff Sessions a "liberal" and "socialist" after Trump turned on him. It is like watching someone get strung out on their own product. :smh::lol:

What does he mean by this tweet?

He figures Biden's campaign should be 100% focused on Wisc, Mich, and Penn unless their internal polling is so good that they don't need to worry about those at all. The thing about Georgia though is that it's a rare state with TWO competitive Senate seats on the ballot this year. Without the Senate, Biden won't get anything passed.

Shit is wild.

I've seen them call Bill "kill every investigation into Trump" Barr a Manchurian AG who is really just a deep state plant in the coup against Trump.

I don't think people realize how far off the deep end the right-wing has gone. The Q-Anon batshit crazy ideology is completely mainstream now.

Ok, that makes sense. That tweet went over my head until you explained it.

I think people think it's all jokes with the "Lock her up" shit about Hillary.... and they are dead ass serious when they're chanting that shit at his rallies. It's not just some fun shit they do to pass the time at Trump's rallies. They're dead fucking serious and they don't understand why Barr hasn't actually done it. They're mad for real. Shit is nuts.

They're in the comments on redstate talking about Obama should be executed for sedition and shit. And these are the "moderate" Republicans.

People don't realize what The Lincoln Project is doing. They're eventually going to turn that machine against biden but they are legit fighting for the party right now. If Trump wins, those muthafuckas from Lincoln Project will need to become democrats and try to push the Dems to the right because the GOP won't have room for moderates if Trump wins. They'll need to join the dem party or really start another party.

I don't know how this is going to end. I don't believe that Americans can live together anymore. The phrase chickens coming home to roost comes to mind. I think the educated political class of the right (like the Lincoln Project) felt that they could walk the thin line with the racists. The educated class didn't think they were racist because they thought they were better not just over the black man but also lower class whites. They knew that they were manipulating them. A good analogy would be if you kept a dangerous dog in your house, you taught the dog to be vicious, to attack when ordered. At some time that dog may turn on you, especially when there's no food left. The educated know they've lost control over the dogs, the greedy still think that they can control them.

:yes:

Craziest shit is that Goldwater of all people predicted this shit:

“Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them.”

You're absolutely right. Trumpism didn't happen overnight, it's the culmination of of a 50 year effort for political control. The Republicans always had their share of racists too, the John Birchers and the American Bund but when they added the south it was over. You could see then how this story was going to go.

Most generals who have risen through the meritocracy will do what they're supposed to do. By the time you've reached 0-6 in the military, you've spent at least 8 years in advance training where a code is driven into you. I just saw somewhere they pointed out the difference in endorsements between Biden and Trump. I think no modern day 4 star has endorsed Trump. Every one who worked for Trump and retired has backed Biden.

The problem is what will the young officers and enlisted do. A lot of soldiers will do whatever their commanders tell them to do. Generals don't give orders directly to soldier, captains do. You'll find a lot of idiots at the captain level.
