Holy shit... That GOP tweet is absurd. That is really how they are trying to appeal to people?

My favorite candidate of the cycle and my primary vote (sorry @bad_teammate), but he's going to have to start appealing to minorities. I'm not sure that's in his repertoire, but then again he's a smart politician so maybe he'll find a way. 

Buttigieg is there to keep the consultant class repubs in the Democratic Party camp once Trump is done. I don't think it will work, but who knows. I see the neocons and nevertrumper repubs fleeing back to the Republican party as soon as this election is over. 

Plastics are made from natural gas. Giant cracker out front shoulda told you. 

I see the GOP is sticking to its small-government philosophy with Trump's priorities.

There's a task for the Dems there.  Demonstrate that in terms of long-term business success and investment, a lot of the things Dems are working for make great fiscal sense, and will actually make us MORE productive (healthcare is a freaking EASY one -- if you can convince employers that 1) they won't have to fuck around with employer-coupled insurance and 2) all of their employees, even the low-level ones, will have basic healthcare so they don't miss that many sick days/have to deal with kids doing the same, it's a boon.  They can dump that administrative task and expense, and more work days means more revenue.

That's just one example.  A functioning society with healthy, educated people is GREAT for business.   If you support business, you should support a political party that will move us towards those things.

That would've been a great ticket, but in reality, Joe is probably what we need right now to end the immediate nightmare.

This is a fun question. If you were a democrat president, what foods would you outlaw with your enormous king powers? I would start with candy corn.

I don't get it....is he trying to tell us that his wife is hispanic?

Seriously, Trump does sometimes sound like this is not his first language, and somebody taught him "Tremendous" and "Fantastic" and he can't stop using it.  

My attorney had to accompany me to Spain awhile back.  He hadn't spoken a word of Spanish since college so he listened to some lessons on the plane.  All he could fucking say when he got there was..."Si, Si...Claro que Si."  Thankfully, I speak good Spanish and everybody there spoke excellent English.  But it was like taking Trump around a tour of Europe.

I really am starting to think 3rd party/other turnout in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are going to make a difference on way or the other.  

I don't have my mind around the maths yet and I do not hear any single credible news source discussing their numbers.

Laugh at them all you want, but people not named Clinton nor Trump accounted for well over 7.6mm votes in 2016.  That's a lot.  

I only know Jo Jorgensen because she's atop my old party's ticket.  I literally have no idea who is running on the Green Party, Constitution Party, nor Reform Party.  And I always know the names of those tickets.  Plus there is no true independent with name recognition this time around like Evan McMullin.  And the consensus on what states Kanye West is listed on the ballot of, remains a total fucking mystery.  Ballotpedia (which can be manipulated on a daily basis) says he's on 12 state ballots.  The battleground states being:  Iowa, Louisiana, and Colorado.  the rest of his states are comfortably hard red or named Vermont.  

I am honestly projecting (and this isn't with much research) that candidates not named Biden or Trump in 2020, will account for no more than 3 million votes.  Far less than half of what they did as an aggregate in 2016.  

Polling average for the last few weeks of polls in PA that list the minor party candidates show Biden at 50, trump at 44, Jojo at 1%

Oh.....dude....I have a WHOLE platform on this topic.  Among the key items are:

Death penalty for the following food crimes:

Serving red beans and rice WITHOUT sausage/hamhock (meat is part of the dish, as a matter of law)

Serving cobbler not hot, without a scoop of ice cream

Calling hot dogs on the grill "barbecue" (nothing against such comestibles, but nomenclature is misleading)

Charging for refills of iced tea

A restaurant that derives more than 50% of its revenue from the sale of mexican food charging for chips and salsa

Serving CFS with brown gravy

Cincinnati chili

 

I also have a traffic rudeness/courtesy platform, but it's lengthy, and makes my death penalty standard look too kind.

Sorry for getting everyone off topic.  My only point was that it wasn't something that needed to be said.  As mentioned by others, some insane amount of voting has already happened so it probably won't move the needle too much, especially since 90%+ of voters aren't on the fence.

If you haven't made up your mind by this point you either haven't been paying attention or are a complete idiot.

I work for a oil company and I voted for Biden.  Neither Biden or Trump has much control over the industry, for me it’s more of a choice between having a total shithead grifter or someone that seems like a decent guy as President.  I would give up my job if it meant having a good country to live in.  There are plenty of other ways to make money and plenty of things more important than money.

In my shaggy,surly experience, you can ask a random jackass on here and the probability they would say "chili with beans' would be the same as the probabilty of randomly picking an irrational number out of the real numbers.

I've actually stopped (or tried anyway) to stop using words and phrases like "tremendous", "the best ever", "fantastic", "beautiful". The orange turd has coopted those words. Hopefully one day in the very near future I can reclaim them in a sentence like:

That was "the best ever" trial and the prosecuting lawyer was "fantastic". Trump received a "tremendous" sentence and will spend the rest of his life in a "beautiful" jail.

Perhaps we should look at North Carolina more closely?
 

one thing to remember is that Biden isn’t nearly disliked as much as Hilary was. He will do better with the independent voters in swing states than she did.
