I have long suspected that I’m the dumbest person on this board….

It’s nice to see we actually agree on something, Tina Hammersmith.

Your father has hated you every second of your life for being his most enormous waste of an orgasm.

I have long suspected that I’m the dumbest person on this board but now I must be the most naive, as well. You think there are would-be Harris voters out there who are going to *suddenly not* go to the polls all because a guy who isn’t even on the ticket called Trump supporters garbage?

It’s on the margins.

A few low-information, low-propensity Harris voters who were leaning to voting because of the Trump hate rally at MSG hear sane-washing media’s “coverage” of Biden’s gaffe “calling” Trump supporters “garbage.” They think, “Both sides call each other names. Fuck it. Voting is a waste of time.”

It’s not a lot of people; but, this is a close race.

If anything, it may help drive low propensity Trump voters to the polls.

Seems unlikely.

I feel like some are taking an analytical approach to the Biden gaffe, which makes sense - everyone here is intelligent and educated. Some voters do not take an analytical approach in determining who to vote for or whether or not they will vote at all. They vote if they have time and feel motivated and vote for whomever they like better. That's why these October surprises (that shouldn't really move the needle) do in-fact move the needle. And if it only motivates 1% of voters who otherwise would not have voted in Penn., you may have a different President elect.

1%? No way in hell.

And Biden isn’t on the ticket.

This does provide dems something to clutch their pearls over.

NPR’s nothing but consistent - leads off its 2:00 pm news report with Biden’s gaffe and Harris’s response.

Heard this during breakfast this morning. Had to LOL.

I know that one person - one vote is the best overall system, but it hurts me to know that any idiot's vote can cancel mine out.

Agreed, NPR is insufferable

I stopped taking NPR seriously when, on the same day, they: (a) fired Bob Edward's from "Morning Edition" and (b) gave Ann Coulter a platform to spread lies about Senator Max Cleland while he was running for re-election. NPR has never received another dime or minute from me since.

This gives me an excuse to post a gif of Jennifer Aniston.

I am not sure that "follows" on Instagram evidence the degree of emotional connection with Jennifer Aniston required for people to change their political views on the basis of her vote.

 

[superrific]

This is exactly what I thought had happened. The Trump person only posted 7 of the 54 markets to show that she had pulled. It was just a reallocation.

 

[superrific]

So Elon is out there saying that electing Trump would cause temporary hardship.

This needs to get in ads tout de suite. God, what an idiot.

[CFordUNC]

Oh look!!!!! The guys whose supporters melted down because Joe Biden called them garbage is currently calling Harris supporters “horrible people”! PEARL CLUTCHING ENGAGED!

 

[CFordUNC]

Lmfao I overshot my earlier “this won’t even be a thing in 24-48 hours” prediction by a cool 18-42 hours because the dumb fuck whose supporters were called garbage is out saying garbage things about his opponent’s supporters, which his supporters are cheering!

All of these low-propensity voters who are sitting around waiting with bated breath to see which candidate’s side can say the worst thing about the other side’s voters before they make up their mind and go to the polls, have got to be getting awful whiplash.
