re: #219 lawhawk

So, we’re supposed to take a single poll that is outside the average of every other poll conducted over the past few months and think that all of a sudden things have collapsed for Biden when the only thing collapsing is the economy, the rule of law, and the USPS due to Trump’s active efforts to destroy democracy?

Let’s get a grip here. Most of the polling shows Biden up comfortably and consistently up by 8-10 points. But let’s also work assuming that Biden is down like 5 points to make sure we’re not complacent. We want to destroy Trump and the GOP, and that means working hard to overcome Trump and GOP voter suppression efforts, which also includes their efforts to damage the USPS.

GOP delenda est, and that includes every fucking GOPer at every level that enables and supports the most corrupt and criminal admin in our history.

Today, DNC starts, and I’m sure Trump will try to upstage with some bulkshit. He’s going to try and take credit for a rapid test or some nonsense, even though all of Trump’s efforts have been to delay testing, undermine confidence in the public health system, undermine the USPS, and destroy the rule of law with the complicity of the GOP.

DNC speakers will take on Trump head-on, and it will be interesting to see how conventions will be an anachronism thanks to the pandemic. It also means that the Bernie supporters who previously undermined Clinton’s 2016 run and marred that year’s convention will not have the same ability to do so in 2020 since they don’t have a floor from which to undermine the candidate.

Even the CNN poll shows Biden at 50% and Trump at 46%, which realistically is his ceiling. This poll is nothing to get excited about.
