She would not take the call.  Biden? Ugh, it worries me.  The whole elder statesman thing and he's done after January, so what does he care if he pardons Trump?

If harris wins tomorrow, espescially if she wins big, watching how Texags reactions is going to be fascinating, but mostly terrifying. 

You can go there now and see how the cult is reacting to last Saturday night and.....

There will be some accurate reflections about how they were bamboozled by Trump for a day or 2, but they will be happily talking about 2028 by the weekend.  No group is better at rebounding after defeats.

Just had an interesting conversation with wife.

Her: Hey Wednesday I need you to pick our son up

Me: ok but be home by 4 because I am going to Chili’s for some internet friends.

Her: You are meeting randoms from the internet at Chili’s

Me: No, we are all going to different ones. You’re making this sound weird.

I forgot my last response to her.

Generational Lab did a poll of college students in the 7 swing states 

+51 Harris (72-21)

Probably the least reliable voting bloc...

well i just spent an hour catching up on this thread and man, y'all talk about some stupid shit. can we please not lose focus?

when you're ordering your chili's chicken ranch sandwich, and i cannot stress this enough, tell your server to bring you the buffalo sauce and ranch on the side. if you don't, they will pour it on for you, and it will be a soggy mess.

let's be safe out there.

What's better, the smash burger or the chicken ranch sandwich?

I criticized a post by Wasserman a few days ago and someone came to his defense. I remember him providing reliable and interesting information 4 years ago (could've been 8 years ago because in 2020 I turned to Bitecofer for info) but I swear the dude's brain is mush or he's outright trying to spin bullshit. To compare Black and Latin voters and indicate their voting interest is lagging in comparison to 2020 is misleading af. In 2020 only 63% of Blacks and 54% of Latinos voted, so their voting interest is actually higher this year, and in the case of Black voters it's 20% higher. Also in 2020 only 50% of 18 to 34s voted, so umm 52 > 50.

Yeah, I went to the Google machine to see what that was all about. It's 2+ years old and in reference to him saying things like he'd give Trump a swift left hook, etc, that earned him a visit from the Secret Service. Got naked with Kim Basinger, Carre Otis and Marisa Tomei AND hates Trump ...

What would even be the point of a pardon? He'd just immediately break any deal they agreed to.

Correct.  There is no world where he would ever live up to his end of any deal.  So no deals.

My favorite Wasserman thing was him claiming 2pm turnout in Virginia Beach was lagging so it was a red wave

5 hours later, it was not

Yep but I would bet for however reliable they are the 72 (a lot of them undoubtedly female) are going to be more reliable than the 21

He’s reporting voting interest that is at a 9 or 10 out of 10. Not expected turnout %.

Same with the Big Smasher. The sauce is great, but they put way too much on.  Just order it on the side and save some napkins and probably your shirt.

Correct. But it those 2 categories of voters are at the highest level of interest of voting, meaning they absolutely intend to vote, and it can't possibly be a "part of the story" if Trump wins tomorrow (edit - at least not in the way that fuck is trying to both sides things).

I have also said before, I wouldn't be that surprised if there's been back channels in the last few days, or weeks, about a pardon in exchange for conceding he lost. 

Now, has/would Harris or Biden even entertain that offer or even take the calls is another story.  And I doubt it.

When dealing with folks who have no integrity, I feel no burden to act with integrity. Agree. Then gut him like a fish.

The Surl at Chilis Wednesday night
image.png.13a8e4539cc106bc03334525e90b0001.png

Hits near to home. About 20 years ago after a happy hour work function in a chilis or a peer restaurant in the north Dallas area around northwest highway, my African-American friend took me to a lovely little place down the road called Dallas gentlemen’s club where to out surprise Alan iverson and crew were a couple tables away with many bottles of Dom and the attention of most of the talent.  It was reported the next morning that he missed shoot around due to illness, but managed to play in the game that night.

The wife said to me this morning she wants to go essentially "air gapped" (my term, not hers) starting tomorrow and not see any news, social media, etc., until the end of the week.  She just can't take all of this anymore.

Talking election with my 35ish year old Ethiopian immigrant limo driver. His sisters who all live in Atlanta are voting TrUmp, and he’s convinced his lifelong Democrat mom to switch over by getting her to listen to right wing podcasts. Interesting and sad to hear such a weird and unorthodox perspective.

You know, we do the weave. Do you know what the weave is? We'll talk about like nine different things, and they all come back brilliantly together, and it's like, friends of mine that are, like, Surly assholes, they say, "It's the most brilliant thing we've ever seen".

Co-sign. Tried to do my part. I went to Chilis today(because of this thread) for the first time since probably 1995. It was very underwhelming and too much goddamn mystery sauce. Not feeling very good since, but I usually eat lean meats and vegetables, so shock to the system.

You sure she didn't say "airtight?" That's what she told me at least.

So am I the only one that thinks its possible Trump projects everything to the other side so when he says the Dems are rigging the election it is actually his team that figured out a way to rig it for him?  I can totally see him demanding that they make sure he wins all 50 states or some shit like that.  Something so implausible that it the riots come, it will be from the good guys when NY, CA, MA, etc… are suddenly red on election night.  I feel like a manic depressive as I swing back and forth from Harris in a blowout to Trump cheats and wins.  Can’t wait for this to be over.

Quote

Selzer, who acknowledged it was “hard for anybody to say they saw this coming,” said that “age and gender are the two most dynamic factors that are explaining these numbers.” In particular, per the results, voters 65 and older favor Harris — and women 65 and older favor her 63% to 28%.

i’m not sure how he can be underwater 35 points with older women and expect a return of 2016.

And I know that Wasserman has women six percentage points greater in election interest ( at least, rated as  9 or 10) than men, with men in 2024 having the lowest interest in the last five presidential elections.   

Trump relies on motivated male voters as his bread and butter.   Lower male Trump voter enthusiasm combined with increased female Harris favorable voter enthusiasm seems kind of a good thing
