  1. And both groups are too stupid and stubborn to admit they’ve been played.
  2. Either polling is wrong or every single thing that we “know” about how to run a presidential candidate is null and void. I understand that the polling stuff is more front and center to us commoners, but the campaign stuff would be equally unbelievable and just as unprecedented. And the polling isn’t indicating something easy to explain like moderates slipping back red, it is showing the single greatest demographic shift of our lifetimes - in a low enthusiasm, rematch election. A shift that has not materialized even a little bit in any ACTUAL election over the past three years. It’s not copium to acknowledge that the polls make no fucking sense.
  3. 1. Replace Biden 2. ? 3. Profit The depth of the political analysis of anyone suggesting Biden be replaced.
  4. There isn't one. This was made very clear in 2020, and it makes these temper tantrums by many on the left even more infuriating. Kamala would make the Mondale map look impressive. Newsom might be the guy in 2028, but I don't think he would be very appealing to the swing states on short notice. Nobody knows who Whitmer is, nationally. Pete needs airplanes to stop falling out of the sky and bridges to stop getting run into.
  5. My power rankings headed into finale: 1. Charlie 2. Kenzie (doesn't have the resume of Charlie/Maria, but don't think she has any enemies - and they've really emphasized her compassion towards Ben, feel like that will come up again) 3. Maria (she wins if she gets to the end, I just don't see how she will) 4. Liz 5. Ben
  6. I think Maria genuinely thought she had everyone on board for a Charlie vote. Just a complete and total misread on her part.
  7. If he plays his idol last night to get Charlie out and then manages to work with the rest of them to boot Maria before the final 3... I genuinely think he wins in that scenario. An all-time unforced error.
  8. These people aren't watching the debate, though. They'll be fed edited clips of it via tiktok, and well...
  9. I appreciate the bravado Joe is showing in that video, but I think this is a bad idea. I don't think Joe is as diminished as the opposition would like you to believe, but a debate is the prime setting to highlight his shortcomings (especially against Trump's bluster) and tailor made for out-of-context tiktok clips to go viral. The average voter watches these for "vibes" more than policy talk, and I think the risk is much much higher than the reward in that regard. The only logical explanation is that the campaign believes these horrific poll numbers.
  10. Remarkable how the pattern keeps continuing: when there's nothing to gain, these fuckers want nothing to do with Trump. When it became apparent that showing support for Trump in court was smart politically, they ALL crawl out of the woodwork. Pathetic
  11. Michigan and Wisconsin: two electorates famously known for being 50 points apart.
  12. Guys, there's important context you have to remember when speaking to Trump voters like fatty and lucious: they're not very smart
  13. The lack of critical analysis is really what is killing me. These polling results would indicate the greatest demographic shift in our lifetime and there is absolutely no attempt to reconcile this. Just "welp, looks like ol' Joe is in trouble!" If the polling industry didn't exist, the common refrain would be a Biden blowout. Every real indicator is pointing that way... the polling is the ONLY thing giving Trump a chance. It's all just so weird.
  14. Special shoutout to these lunatics for making sure to steal headlines anytime the national momentum seems to be shifting away from the Dems.
  15. You have to combine them. High critic + High audience = must see High critic + Low audience = don't see, will probably win awards Low critic + High audience = probably a solid comedy Low critic + Low audience = my wife's favorite movie
  16. The irony of all of this is that... yeah, our schedule this year isn't incredibly daunting. BUT that's what we have been trying to say for the past decade when aggy claimed "8-4 in the SEC is like 12-0 in the Big 12!!!". Some years will be absolutely brutal, but most seasons have a couple of marquee games filled with a bunch of filler. I would never expect them to acknowledge that they agree with us now, however. It's obviously that Texas has been assigned the first "favorable" schedule in the history of the SEC.
  17. "i was on the wrong side of the Red River" is an all-timer.
  18. Guilty as charged.
  19. You are correct, but I'm still watching.
  20. Just like Jurassic Park, they could make a hundred of these movies and I'd see every one.
  21. This island is full of sensitive players who aren't very good at the game, but I have to admit it is much more fun to watch than the kumbaya gamebots that we've seen in recent years. Very, very glad that my premonition of Venus and Liz as final 3 locks isn't coming to be. Think I'd most want to be Charlie right now ... but at some point, Q's survival becomes a compelling feather in his cap.
  22. Cue the "it's too late, still voting for the guy who wants to nuke Palestine" leftist replies... Correct call by Biden, IMO.
  23. Ah yes, the famously woke Ku Klux Klan.
