You sound like Republicans who used to say the polls were rigged, because Republicans always outperformed the polls in elections, especially the mid terms. The reason wasn't because the polls were wrong. It was because Republicans were more motivated to actually go out and vote.
Well, that's not the case any more, as you can clearly see if you look at the 2022 results and the 2021 Georgia Senate runoffs. Democrats did much better than the polls predicted. Democrats are mad as hell. So are the majority of independents. They believe Trump tried to steal an election, and they're going to to the polls in larger numbers than Republicans. For better or worse, you have little to worry about if it's Trump vs. Biden. Biden will outperform the polls and probably win.

As to COVID, you live in the Free State of Texas. How many people had to pay a fine for failing to wear a mask in Texas? Maybe a handful? As I recall, there was no fine for a first offense, and nobody was keeping a record of offenders. Abbott opened the state back up on May 1, admittedly with reduced capacity for stores and restaurants. Well, if I were to add up all the time I spent standing in line to get into the HEB, the home depot, restaurants because of capacity limitations, etc. , I bet it wouldn't add up to over two hours. It was probably less. Nobody had to get a vaccine here, unless you worked for the federal government, or you wanted to travel. And the requirement for travel was imposed by foreign governments, not by the USA for returning nationals.
Compare that to other states and other countries. I bet Tooms didn't step foot outside of Thailand, and for good reason. He would have had to spend weeks in quarantine when he came back.
And if those other states and countries wanted to impose lockdowns and vaccine and mask mandates, well, more power to them. Isn't that the point of our federal government? We should lead our lives the way we want here, in The Great State of Texas, and the Peoples Republic of California should have the right to pursue its own path.
Masks didn't bother me. They were like wearing safety belts. If Obama and Trump hadn't let our stocks of N95 masks run down, maybe people could have been given them at the outset of the pandemic, and we could have gotten on with life. I likely can come up with two population studies that show they worked for every one you can find that said they didn't. And if you look at experimental studies, like putting surgical mask material between cages of infected and uninfected hamsters, they show they work. As do studies comparing health care workers who did and didn't wear good quality masks when treating coronavirus patients. And studies involving the physics, chemistry and biology of droplets, aerosols and the virus. The problem was that the majority of transmission occurred in the home, and people didn't wear masks at home. That and people were wearing poor quality masks improperly.
Similarly, the vaccines worked initially to prevent the disease, and later to significantly lower the probability of hospitalization and death from COVID among vulnerable populations. I haven't seen any study that would contradict that, that isn't bull shit, and I've looked at a lot.
Finally, as to Abbott's lockdown, what was he supposed to do? You had the elderly dying and hospitals overloaded in Wuhan, Italy and New York. He didn't have a choice. And he reopened at first opportunity. We only lost about a month and a half here. Compare to much of the rest of the world where the lockdowns, quarantines and travel restrictions went on endlessly.
I agree with you about a lot, but not about this. We here in God's Country (Texas) have nothing to complain about.

One of the biggest lies with Covid was asymptomatic spread. It is rare, and someone finally did a study to prove it. https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/pe...s-lancet-study.
And the mask issue has been put to bed as well, CNN actually talked to Fauci about a definitive study that masks do not work with infections. https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/w...edium=referral.
Fauci confronted with most definitive data analysis possible that masks make ZERO difference against Covid. Not a little, not slight- Zero. And he just mutters some numerical illiteracy bullshit about "individual protection. " he's a fraud and a liar.
And don't get me started on the vax shit. Why am I seeing so many cases of Covid now if the vax worked?
So what was the fucking purpose of all these lockdowns? I said multiple times on here how much of this was bullshit while the Democratic douches swallowed it all up. Not only do these arrogant pricks still think they were right, you guys got like Tooms saying the whole thing was Trump's fault. He is so dumb he doesn't ask the big question: why the fuck were there lockdowns at all with a virus with a mortality rate similar to the flu?
In my opinion, there were lockdowns because assholes like Fauci wanted to show they had power. Period. You talk about a rich man North of Richmond and that is definitely fucking Fauci.
And who is a rich man and not on the take? Trump, and that is why he was voted in. Call him a narcissist, a liar, a showboat stupid ETC. That is their right, and it may be partially true, but the one thing Trump is not is corrupt. He has enough money such that no one owns him.
Isn't it obvious by now that the Ukrainian oligarchs bribed the Biden family including Joe? And you mean to tell me those billions being sent to Ukraine aren't being sent in part to keep those oligarchs quiet? This is the kind of corruption that Oliver Anthony was singing about. We got Biden sending billions to Ukraine because his family got millions. How is this okay?
"I wish politicians would look out for miners And not just minors on an island somewhere. ".
You got government with unlimited funds going after Epstein while screwing over the working man. There is billions for Ukraine but for America's crumbling cities? Fuck them!
The Democratic douches still do not get it. We are sick of legacy politics. Why the fuck is Chelsea Clinton worth $250 million? Isn't anyone paying her doing so for political influence? Why did so many elections have a Bush or Clinton in them and the media announce one of them is the front runner?
Voting for Trump was a middle finger to the rich men North of Richmond, and the Democratic douches do not get that. They are okay with egotistical power hungry bureaucrats like Fauci and pols who take bribes like the Bidens do.

Posts: 5522Oh, and about that WSJ poll where Biden and Trump tied. LOL
It is very likely that without these kind of classic Repub / Trump shenanigans going on along with the expected over-sampling of panicky Trump cultists racing to their phones and computers just so they can be over-sampled in the polls lately, Trump's deficit vs Biden in the consensus of polls that even demonstrably Winger-leaning polling services like RCP show Biden ahead would be even more solid than the 5 point advantage Biden has over a so-called "normal" Repub like DeSantis.
LOL. Really pathetic:
Trump Helped Pay For Big Poll Showing Biden Is 'Too Old To Run'.
What a shocker.
https://crooksandliars.com/2023/09/t...-showing-biden
What the Journal does not mention anywhere is that Fabrizio also worked as the chief pollster on Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. And since the start of 2023, Trump's super PAC, Make America Great Again Inc., has paid Fabrizio's company more than $567,000, according to FEC filings.

"I did address a couple of them. Nobody is legalizing shop-lifting, Ted Cruz' state is more dangerously lawless than California, his Party has robbed more Americsns of their jobs, money, retirement funds snd lives than the Party Maher bashed and lied about "legalizing shop-lifting. ".
Uh. Although you and Bill Maher would love for everyone to think it is at least equal to if not far, far worse, some congressperson most Americans have never heard of tweeting something provocative is not "equal" to Ron DeSantis, the Governor of Florida and second choice for the Republican Party's so-called presidential nomination actually and really promoting, signing and passing laws banning books.
The same with your and Maher's other silly False Equivalency and virulently pro Repub Bothsiderism sucker social issues that the economic and national security disaster Repub Party has had to run on since it turned out even Reagan's economic and national security results paled against those of Carter after they had worked so hard to spin the BS that Reagan was one of the Greatest Presidents and Carter was the worst.
LOL. Foreshadowing Trump's claim that his inauguration crowd was the biggest of all time and that the 2020 election was stolen from him. ".

"You've only addressed one "joke. " Please address the following other jokes from the video.
San Francisco has become a shoplifter's paradise.

Democratic Congressman Jamaal Bowman said "I believe our current system of capitalism is slavery by another name. We've moved from physical chattel enslavement and physical racial segregation to a plantation economic system. ".
A majority of the San Francisco school board voted to strip the name of Lincoln from area schools, and left-of-center students at the University of Wisconsin demanded the school remove its famous Lincoln statue.
Seattle Public Schools proposed including questions like "Where does Power and Oppression show up in our math experiences?" and "How is math manipulated to allow inequality and oppression to persist?" in math instruction.
California passed a law to require toy sellers to provide a non-gendered toy section.

And don't forget Bubba blowing up the economy in 2008.
November 1999, then-President Bubba Clinton signed the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) into effect. GLBA repealed Sections 20 and 32 of the Glass-Steagall Act, which had prohibited the interlocking of commercial and investment activities.

There has not yet been a Biden vs Repub Loon debate, if any Repub Loon dares to appear opposite Biden or any other Dem with a tough, no BS moderator at the desk that is, which I recall the Repub Party proposing their candidates should avoid at all costs from now on.
Any public appearance of Biden vs Any Repub Loon will likely shock many Dem voters and virtually all Repub Loon voters into the realization that, contrary to much pro Repub media and punditry, Joe Biden is not suffering from senility, dementia, cognitive impairment, is not an imposter pretending to be Joe Biden, does in fact have a clear and lucid mastery of the most important issues and what is best to do about them while whatever Repub Loon dares to appear opposite him hasn't got a clue.
The same as in 2020.
