This 538 analysis does explain the strange Trump tactical moves to Nevada and Minnesota, as they see their secondary targets instead of their main swing state targets. We can count on the race tightening and the margins are closer in the swing states. We’ve moved past Labor Day and into the home stretch of the 2020…

it may be too late to stop election interference

more lies, as Trump looks for extra cash in places like the 29% odds he wins re-election
This is a true virtue-signal as Trump announces he’s now open for more griftable influence money not unlike the cash infusions he received in 2016. This is beyond the skimming that has now shown Trump to have blown through $800 million. x Trump doesn’t have anywhere near that amount in free cash. If it “shows…
AZ-Sen: Rep. Paul Gosar (R) Pushes Conspiracy Theory That Dems Stole 2018 Election From McSally (R)
Dumb ass: Rep. Paul Gosar boosted a tweet Thursday from a conservative Arizona comedian who outlined a false conspiracy of how he thinks Democrats stole Arizona's 2018 Senate race won by Kyrsten Sinema. Gosar, R-Ariz., used his personal Twitter account to amplify the fringe view of a man who only identifies himself on social media as…
How Trump steals the election, let us count the ways.
In fear-mongering, there are plenty of fine people on both sides. the Trump 1968-styled campaign looks for a 2000 result, with one state making it go to SCOTUS, failing that a House decision based on faithless electors. You figure, all it would take would be a stack of Russian, Saudi, or Turkish gold bars. Heck,…

NC-Sen: NYT, “Not the Convention, or the Election, North Carolina Republicans Hoped For”
The New York Times has a great piece out about the upcoming Republican National Convention in Charlotte and the state GOP’s history gerrymandering North Carolina to push their radical right-wing agenda. The RNC was supposed to be a big event for them but it really just draws attention on how much damaged they’ve done to…
CO-Sen: “Gardner’s (R) pre-existing conditions bill exists but is just 117 words of election fodder”
From Ian Silverii at The Denver Post: Sen. Gardner’s record is not in dispute when it comes to his votes to eliminate the ACA without a replacement that protects people with preexisting conditions. He voted for every single repeal bill the Trump administration put forward, none of which protected people with preexisting conditions, and he…
the last free election in US history… maybe, removing swing-state postal sorting machines?
He’s golfing again this weekend in Bedminster. Will he do more pseudo-pressers and populate the “press corps” with “reporters’ from Epoch Times, Gateway Pundit, and OAN. “The president is back at his New Jersey golf resort, bringing his taxpayer-paid golf tab to $142 million.” x Trump’s here at Bedminster, his New Jersey golf club. He’ll…

Should Democrats impeach Trump after he loses re-election to prevent him from pardoning himself?
If Trump loses his re-election bid, we can reasonably count on the period from Election Day until Inaugaration Day (Nov. 3, 2020 to Jan. 20, 2021) to be one of the most perilous, corrupt and weird periods in U.S. history. One thing that seems certain is that Trump will attempt to pardon himself. It is an open legal question (maybe)…

Trump Reveals New Campaign Slogan: “This is Going to Be The Greatest Election Disaster in History”
When someone is suffering from severe mental infirmities, they are prone to making remarks that inadvertently expose the depths of their derangement. Donald Trump is a prime example of this. And he just provided another instance to add to the cornucopia of commentaries that serve to prove how socially distant he is from reality. On…
Why this election will be different
or at least, why I think many of the analysts are getting it completely wrong. Some analysts are saying that Trump supporters are more motivated than are Biden supporters. But that misses the point. The comparison should be with Trump opponents, who are incredibly motivated to vote him — and in many cases the Republicans…
