I'm so much less invested in the presidential election this year as compared to 2012. Even 2016 elicited more from me, at least during the primary stage. Biden is definitely not exciting. Trump is off-putting.

This race ain't over- and it's going to get a whole lot uglier before things clear up..."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under,"Comment

It's speculative. He definitely dogwhistles them, if not outright court them at times. He's had, and has racists in his administration like Gorka and Stephen Miller. Hell, he's been perpetuating that bullshit Qanon conspiracy theory.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostLast edited by frank ryan; 07-13-2020, 08:06 PM.Comment

I think his campaign gets cute a lot. https://www.npr.org/2020/06/18/88037...ls-it-an-emojiOriginally posted by frank ryan View Post
His campaign is built on dog whistling. It's not crazy to think any of this isn't on purpose. Maybe not the focal point, but they love spreading around Easter eggs to solidify the base with 'those who have ears to hear,' so to speak."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch!

That’s interesting. I think most of my posts were panicking that trump could actually win. And lots of folks mocking me in return.Originally posted by Walter Sobchak View Post"There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right?

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

The race is over and it won't be all that interesting other than to see how badly Trump panics with the writing on the wall.Originally posted by Commando View PostComment

Originally posted by wapiti View PostI dunno, it's far from over. The opera "fat lady" is not due to sing for a good while. Biden still has to announce a running mate and the situation with the economy and COVID could change quite a lot by the time the polls open.Originally posted by Commando View PostI agree, but...

Of course. I will be active on the campaign trail here in AZ to make sure we turn blue, and Trump will be spending money in Texas since it's now a swing state.Originally posted by Paperback Writer View Post

2016 is the best example of the Bradley Effect yet. This thing could be completely over, but you can't be sure. If Biden doesn't go too woke, he should comfortably win. But don't mistake your Trump disgust for the temperature of the country as a whole.Comment

Remember Trump's fortunes changed because he got a small pocket of voters in swing states to go his way. He has never had a mandate outside his base.Originally posted by USUC View PostComment
