The other side ignores that their guy poops his pants on a regular basis. But sure, Dems let themselves be concern trolled like this.

The other side says Former Guy is “terrified” that another candidate would beat him. Uh huh. Enough said.

Lots of handwringing and anxiety and frustration, and that's understandable. But after everything I've seen this week--not to mention everything before this week--I'm quite confident that if we put in the work that we did in 2020, we're gonna be just fine. I believe in us.

just watched 74 people speaking at least a dozen different languages become american citizens in a ceremony at monticello, where the speakers were themselves children of immigrants. inspiring stuff and a vivid illustration of what reactionaries want to snuff out

It feels like the bare minimum thing we could do to save our own futures here is “not do the New York Times and the GOPs work for it by helping publicly speak the outcome they want into existence.”

Ditto. I want this to be a complete electoral disaster for the GOP. The opposite of 1994’s GOP sweep.

People don't remember this anymore, but after Obama's bad first debate with Romney he dropped by ~4 percentage points in the national head-to-heads. There's no archive for 538 for 2012 (thanks NYT), but RCP's average (for what that's worth) shows this as well. The debate was October 3rd.

I really hope a lot of people *cough third party voters cough* learned their lesson. At least people now know the stakes. At this point, I want the Democrats to sweep elections like a mega tsunami. I want the Republicans to lose and lose hard.

The confidence of these Heritage people is amazing. Like Bannon they’ve branded themselves evil geniuses when their actual plan is to raise taxes, ban porn, and cut the VA. Imagine sitting around the table and saying “cutting veterans housing allowances, this is the spirit of 1776.”

Today, I wrote 120 voter registration postcards to OH and WI (mostly WI) voters today. Mailed the first 55. Mailing in the morning the rest and whatever I can get done the rest of the night and before work. Turn your election-related anxieties into productive activism!
