Could Trump try to disrupt or invalidate the general election?

CNBC releases new poll: Biden leads in six key swing states... Good news for team Trump?

Yes... Trump is still trailing. But almost all of these numbers show the gap closing when compared to the polls I posted yesterday which were released over the course of the previous week. There are a couple of possibilities here. One is that CNBC is an outlier. We will find out soon enough as new polls come out and either confirm or refute the CNBC numbers. The second possibility is that Trump may be regaining some support as a result of the social chaos and upheaval in the country over the last couple of weeks. Or maybe a little of both. Again, we will see if the trend is confirmed as newer polls come out.

As soon as I wake up each morning I put on C-Span's Washington Journal.

As I was listening to this one I thought that I'd missed the beginning. But when I went here I saw that I'd actually heard it all. However, because it was so interesting and because I wanted to pass on some of it here, I listened to it two more times while working today and took some notes.

https://www.c-span.org/video/?473372-3/ ... s-pandemic

Here are my notes. I really liked the 40% / 60% explanation of how the brain takes in information. Explains A LOT!

Vinny

Scott Rasmussen - a pollster and political analyst.

ScottRasmussen.com

1) 64% believe worst of pandemic still to come -- most pessimistic assessment yet measured.

2) Expect a roller coaster - will get higher and lower. There are no feelings of unity regarding this.

3) People who are actually working in the public are more optimistic than those working from home.

4) Republicans saying too much money has already been spent. That is a definite political minus.

5) If there were a choice between reimbursing business for their losses versus assisting state governments it's fairly clear that there is more support for the former.

6) If the election was held today the president would lose as well as the Senate being lost. But we are currently in a time of extreme volatility. We have two major events that started six months prior to the election. The virus and its financial consequences plus civil rights. This is why Biden has such a lead. If improved news comes out then there can be a shift. If protests were to become more violent with then more of an emphasis on law and order then that would produce more shift.

7) Biden's lead has come from former Trump voters not becoming Biden voters but becoming undecided. Maybe 5% or 6% of voters.

8) The range of outcome could be a Trump victory or a historic loss for an incumbent like Hoover experienced in 1932.

9) The founder of Pixar stated that there is scientific evidence that what our brain sees is only 40% of what we see with the balance what we expect to see. Therefore that is going to cause both Democrats and Republicans to interpret the same information differently. Same as fans in the sports bar seeing the same thing differently from the fans of the other team.

10) The people sitting at home are the professional, educated class and are more in line with the media and their views.

11) The role of the media is to be distrusted in the modern era. People treat reporters with the same credibility of a Wikipedia entry. It's a sad state of affairs.

12) The cable stations emphasize different stories. There are stories 100% factual yet they don't get recognized as creditable.

13) I can go to any audience and use actual government information to say spending has gone up, down, or stay the same. The same can now be said for the covid statistics. We will have to wait a year to see what the real story is with the deaths from the covid virus. We are going to be arguing about this. Today I can make either case.

14) At the end of World War II the government had a huge deficit related to GDP. After a generation it came down. The same will have to happen with the huge deficit generated by the virus. It will have to be dealt with over a long period of time with some programs being cut but it will not be solved over the short-term via increased taxation.

The debt from WWII was largely inflated away over the following several decades. It's called "financial repression." And I think we are in the early stages of something similar.

So as soon as people realize that Biden is demented, they'll all vote for Trump.
Great news!
I listened to him speaking yesterday. It seemed like he was somewhere where he was answering voter questions.

However, I was shocked (in retrospective I probably should not have been) when he gave an answer which was just about the same answer as he'd just done prior 20 minutes earlier and it seemed like he had no idea he was doing so.

Trump's no young person and I think the age difference is only three, four years between them? But Biden seems old, old, old, while Trump does not.

By the way a few days ago I listened to Trump's Oklahoma really 2+ times in a row. While I continue to agree with him on little and continue to find him unqualified for the job, I DO find him to be EXTREMELY entertaining. Prior to him becoming a candidate he'd only been a name for me as I'd never seen his TV show.

It depends on who Biden's VP pick is. That person will be the de-facto President from day 1, and probably the actual one within a couple of months. If someone moderate or centrist is chosen, Biden's obvious dementia might not be that much of an issue and the ticket may well win. If they go with a "diversity"/extreme left pick I think that will initially play well but in the end will sink their chances. BTW I really feel bad for Biden...getting demented is unfortunately a fact of life for a large proportion of the over 80 population, and it's so sad to see. My mother is going through the same thing. She doesn't understand what's happening and she's frustrated because she doesn't like what everyone is trying to tell her.

I think the response of Biden voters who are voting against Trump and then get disillusioned with Democratic ticket won't be to vote for Trump, it will be to stay home. Or maybe vote for a third party e.g. the Green candidate. That is a factor that current polls cannot account for. Just 10% of the population doing that in a few key swing states would be enough to hand the election to Trump.

"Participants in the groups are asked a number of discrete questions using the Perception Analyzer dials. The unique ability of the dials to collect individualized responses in a focus group setting and display results in real-time helps eliminate “group think,” "

The only way to eliminate group think is to turn off lamestream media.

Trump has 91% chance of being reelected according to model that has correctly for 25 of the 27 elections since 1912, when primaries were introduced.
Sure....

This is by no means a normal year, nor a normal primary season, nor a normal anything. You can find anyone with any opinion out there on anything.

In 2016 my vote for Trump was more about "anyone but Clinton"

In 2020 my vote will be for "anyone but Trump"

There were a lot of middle of the road people like me who gave Trump the win because of a strong dislike for Clinton (obviously in IL, it did not matter). Now after 4 years, my bet is those people swing the other way.

--------------------

"For the 1/100th time, the reason we show so many Cases, compared to other countries that haven’t done nearly as well as we have, is that our TESTING is much bigger and better. We have tested 40,000,000 people. If we did 20,000,000 instead, Cases would be half, etc. NOT REPORTED!"

If the death curve below, which seems to have turned up, continues in that direction, God help us all. Gonna have to buy high quality cameras for my kids online education, dammit.

So you are going for looting, rioting, and tearing down statues, because that's what you'll get with Democrats in charge.
My opinion is that not many people will pick that option.
They won’t pick that option if they realize that’s what it is. But I’m not sure how many people realize it yet. Plenty of people are still just turned off by “mean tweets”.
