Run it up Herman. Leave no doubt!

Make contact. When the ball carrier is within your reach, push off with your feet as hard as you can and use your legs to drive through your opponent. Drive your lead shoulder into the ball carrier's hips. Keep pushing and driving with your feet until the ball carrier goes down. Pick your knees up high in the driving motion, following through the tackle.

Wrap up. As your shoulder pads connect with the ball carrier, wrap him up with your arms just under his butt. This allows you to not only knock him over, but pull to his legs out from under him when you extend through him, resulting in a lower chance of your tackle being broken. It also results in some spectacular, highlight-worthy "hits" where you really don't have to hit very hard, just with good technique. Don't stop driving until the ball carrier is down and the whistle is blown.
 
I don’t for a second believe Trump is that close in the under 30 demographic.
Much like Trump was making small but noticeable inroads with black folks, he's going to make inroads with young folks for many of the same reasons. The system doesn't work as well for black folks and young folks as it does for the rest of us. There's a contingent in both blocs who's willing to light it on fire and start over again. They see Trump as the kindling.

Now, what's curious about this point of view is that the post-explosion America isn't going to work better for them. But they're willing to take their chance in the chaos than live with further disappointment.

Democrats ignore/discount this phenomenon at their own peril.

So they should appeal to the chaos crowd?
 
47% in the NYT poll say Harris is too progressive. 9% says she is not progressive enough.

Sounds like they talked to a lot of Republicans.

I bet if you asked that 47% which of Harris' policies they consider "too progressive" most of them couldn't do it. Or they would ascribe a position to her that is false because they get their news from liars.
 
It’s okay to not have an 800 page policy document for every issue, but people do want to know that she has a plan. Trump may not seem like he has a plan to us (because he doesn’t) but the average young voter doesn’t really get that from my experience. They hear him pay lip service to the actual economic issues in the country and think that means something.

The bigger issue is the double standard that our legacy media has in terms of pressing Harris and Trump. They hold Harris to such a higher standard for policy and rail against any policies she has proposed that are slightly left of center.
So this group of young people don't "get" that Trump doesn't have a plan but want details of Harris' plans? You seem to be contradicting yourself in what these young people want.

They 100% did. That's why folks have been digging into it and finding some big flaws. The evangelical % is ridiculous. What on earth has happened across the NYT over the last decade????
