It's funny that adults want to block Tik-Tok for what it's doing to our youth when adults are being completely driven by online rage baiting and disinformation via Twitter, Facebook, Nextdoor, and weirdly now Linkedin. I've started cutting out Twitter except for a few times a day and it feels much better.

From my perspective in PA as a 40 year old, middle class, suburban, white male, registered independent, I get FAR more messaging from Trump than from Harris. TV ads are probably 2-1. YouTube ads are probably 10-1. I get a physical mailer every single day. Those are probably 80% anti Harris, 20% anti Casey. I haven’t gotten a single mailer from the Dem candidates. 

There is absolutely zero pro Trump messaging. The message that I get bombarded with constantly is that there are marauding hordes of illegal immigrant criminals pillaging the country raping and murdering everyone while also getting everyone addicted to fentanyl, and Kamala is in favor of it. Somehow they’re also stealing everyone’s jobs, driving up the cost of homes, food, and healthcare. Also bob casey is responsible for inflation. 

They may not have people on the ground, but they are absolutely making sure people see their message. 

Well, someone should make the Harris Campaign aware that this is an important election and Pennsylvania is an important swing state.

I don't agree with it, but the Harris campaign has you on a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet says you're white and independent. The data gurus project that, if you do bother to show up and vote, you're more likely to vote for Trump. That's why Trump is lovebombing you (he needs you, BIGLY) and Harris wouldn't lose sleep if you forgot to show up and vote (since they have you pegged as likely to vote Trump).

It's bizarre to me since all her messaging has been trying to court moderates, so you would think her ground game would be aligned with that messaging, but here we are.

Love me some Kaitlan Collins. I've said it before and I'll probably say it again, whatever room she ever finds herself in, she's probably almost always the smartest person there. She knows what these clueless rubes are gonna say before they do, and she's ready to respond before they can even spit it out.

I'd love to see her in a debate. When she's done, there would just be a smoking hole where the other person had been standing.

Give Kamala a Democratic Congress, and the Judiciary Act of 2025 is going to be a banger.

@heso I'm not prying, but if you've maybe voted in a GOP primary in the past, or gone to a GOP fundraiser or signed a pro business/right leaning petition, you are on a list that is being sold and resold 100 times.  The Maryland Democrats are so deep in my fucking DMs right now that I'm considering a restraing order.

Good polling today

Leading in 6/7 swing states by Cook Political
+4 in WI by an A+ pollster
+5, +3, +3 nationally in the 3 that came out today
Texas poll by Scott Rasmussen that showed her at 46% (no real change from 2020 on that front)

Yeah, but I think there are extenuating circumstances contributing to that. They are PISSED at the attempt to take their EV away and it's reflected in the polls there.

I mean, we will see, but I think the suburbs are going further blue, which does not bode well for Trump.

October surprise incoming…

Along the lines of interesting advertising, we've been getting what I believe are Vietnamese ads for Kamala on certain platforms.  I'd recently read that the Democratic campaign has placed a real emphasis on the Asian American vote here in specifically Atlanta.  We only see these on certain platforms, like Hulu and Pluto, but it's clear there is an effort.  I know a lot of people use different platforms to get news and shows from back home, so I guess that's part of this.  Considering that every election in Georgia is so close, I really like this strategy.  We do have a large Asian first and second generation community here, so there is a real opportunity for meaningful pickups with this.

I welcome any chance for this country to come together and act as people based who judge each other on nothing other than their character. I appreciate this effort and agree it's an opportunity to be seized. but i disagree it might be our only chance. we can at any point decide to stop being assholes - we don't have to wait for elections to do it

It's like with anything you try to ask Trump or Vance about, they can talk and whine about their grievances but don't you dare ask them about it because they're focused on the future...while bitching non-stop about the past. It's an easy question. Your candidate didn't want to leave office last time. Why should voters think he won't do that again when he can't even agree that he lost the first time even though everyone outside of MAGA knows he did? 

Well, there's that little detail where Trump isn't in office.  Of course, he'll throw even bigger fits and try to slug it out in the courts, etc.

Trump is a traitor.  Send me your $9.95.

Lulz, Trump went to Pence after the election and basically told him to go find all the fraud he could. No knowledge of fraud of course, just "go find some, so we can go to court".

It says he's a campaign employee and co-conspirator, so my guess is that P5 above is Boris Epshteyn.

Watching this again...it's insane just how much more composed and in control Trump was in 2020. And he's completely unhinged in this clip. But he's 10 times worse and more out of control than he was just 4 yeas ago.

Wow, reading all that I learned this Trump guy is a dangerous lunatic that probably should not be walking freely among us four years after.  Good thing we have strong institutions to prevent anything like that from happening again.
