    also to be clear, I'm not suggesting that Cartel members aren't dangerous or that you should go looking for them to buy drugs. You should definitely stay away from Mexican drug cartels lol

    There are really bad parts of Mexico of course but it gets a bad rap and really depends what part of Mexico you are in. You're more likely to get murdered in Saint Louis, Baltimore, or Detroit than you are in Mexico City or Merida. Same as every city there are certain parts you just don't go to unless you're looking for trouble lol.

    Obviously there are kidnappings and such but for the most part Cartel dudes don't want to murder you they want to sell you overpriced stepped on cocaine lol

    Since when were politicians anywhere the 'best to offer', lol. They're absolutely not. They're just people who want to serve society and/or want power.

    It's a popularity contest.

    Is not like they're the greatest scientists or philosophers. They're mostly just normal people of average intelligence, fumbling around for public approval, with very little to no control of much of anything, trying to look perfect.

    The whole thing is pointless and cringe.

    oooof...if these are reflected in the polls, even a slight 1-2 point bounce for Biden would be a fatal blow to the Trump campaign.

    I hope it’s boring. If it’s boring, it’s a good night for Biden.

    Voters didn’t care when McConnell blocked Garland from the court. Doubt this would illicit any kind of severe backlash. Especially not in midst of a pandemic & recession. Voters care about other issues way more. Biden can tip toe around & be like “well...I may consider it.” That’s fine. I mean behind closed doors, in these negotiations, there needs to be a counter-threat.

    This is actually somewhat promising—not holding my breathe though:

    The public should see that but they won't. Trump supporters do not give a single f--- about right or wrong. I'm with @Enigma . It's got to be a fight. That "We go high" s--- isn't going to fly this year.


    But yeah what a f---ing year lol.

    Yeah, that’s the thing about American voters, they aren’t ideological. A lot of them like to claim they are but they’re not. #1 variable that drives vote choice is partisanship. Democrats vote for democrats & Republicans vote for Republicans. Voting across party lines just doesn’t really happen much.

    The “swing voters” who election nerds talk about in every election & media annoyingly put on a pedestal are really just politically uninformed voters that are easily persuaded by party elites. They don’t really have a core set of beliefs hence why they drift from voting one party to the next. Those are the voters that ultimately decide elections though.

    most underrated dynamic of the race is the lack of undecided voters and the lack of independent candidates. I saw one of the election nerds I follow tweet the other day that the combined Hillary/Trump vote at this point in 2016 was like 82%, and the combined Biden/Trump vote right now is 93%+. That really doesn't leave a big slice of persuadable voters, which is very bad if you are Donald Trump and you need to make up a 7-8 point deficit. You not only need to win most undecideds, you probably need to flip some votes

    also, my take on the debates: there's a part of me that's worried about Biden, he has had his stumbles in his past and I'm sure he will have more in the future. But the Trump campaign has played this stupidly, painting Biden as a buffoon with dementia who can't speak without stepping on his own d-ck. The most likely outcome? Biden does......fine. And if that happens, the entire Trump argument about Biden's unfitness is dead, simply because they didn't know how to manage expectations
