    I just don't understand it from the political spectrum. To me, we all rise together or we fall together. We could've done more as a citizenry to make this work. Especially Congressional members, it especially feels like they're getting a pass(despite 10% approval rating) for their lack of anything in these four years. Typically, they'll blame Senator McConnell for not bringing up bills to debate in the Senate, but the whole point is for the House leadership to convince the Senate that these are bills worth taking up.

    If the House leadership can't do that, the Senate won't vote or debate on bills that aren't worth taking up. And the House recently lost ground, when Pelosi disregarded SC Senator Tim Scott. They can no longer say with a straight face: "Oooh, McConnell's bad" and expect anyone to believe it.

    To me, I compare the election of Biden to a jerk off session and you feel good after an orgasm. Literally, it's the exorcism of orange man bad. But then the reality will be a Biden government.

    Since I am US first, not Trump first if Biden wins I want him to succeed.

    Asking someone to back up their lies is triggering to some I guess... Feel free to post some of the Republican polling that the article shows is unusually missing this close to election day.
    Do you believe they are hiding polls that show them winning?
    Must be some of the 4D chess we keep hearing about. Or is it “alternative facts”?

    Love your new avatar btw, suits you and is quite ironic.

    I think you guys have lost the plot. The title of the thread claims GOP polling shows Trump getting his ass kicked which means the polling has been released. Then there is a debate about why the GOP hasn't released any polling.

    So which is it?

    Two questions for you:
    What is the only appropriate way to dispose of the US flag?
    Do Americans have a constitutional right to burn the flag?

    The Confederate battle flag being flown is much more treasonous than peaceful protest over valid concerns in America.
    And I assure you, that is your side.

    It is much more patriotic to see and address issues within your nation than it is to close your eyes and demand regression.

    The entire article is about “why” the right is not releasing internal polling results like that have traditionally done.
    I guess it is difficult for some to read more than an article heading, which is not really surprising seeing the mental deficiencies we are seeing expressed on a daily basis. Add (Lack of) to the beginning of the article title if you are still struggling.

    So, the people who wrote the article have seen the polling?

    Biden and the Democrats certainly have the advantage here, and Trump certainly isn't helping his cause or the down ballot in any manner. As long as Biden is seen and heard, stays on message, then the odds for a Trump comeback is far less likely. It's about 120 days away, and time is running out for Trump.

    Sure, attempt to conflate burning the flag in spiteful contempt to proper disposal, weak. My side is not ones burning flags.

    Nothing about the title requires the interpretation that the internal polling has been released. It is fairly simple.

    Parties want to release polls that support their messaging. And Republicans are publicly claiming confidence, but they are wholly unrelated to release their internal polling.

    The reason, as detailed by the title, is that their own internal numbers match the very same slaughter being estimated by the current public polls.

    One point that I have seen discussed is that trump actually has even less time than ordinary this cycle.

    Consider that in an ordinary election, a majority will vote on the day of the election. The time? With the pandemic? It is easy to project that a majority will vote up to several weeks early instead.

    No, because the Republicans refuse to put up or shut up.

    Why do you think they do not want to release their own internal polling?

    No, that's just what it says directly.

    Have you ever considered that repping the confederate flag and the American flag at the same time is akin to denouncing gay marriage while engaging in a gay sex act?

    No, it says the polling is terrible. Not that the polling is public.

    So they wrote an article based on pure fantasy and someone actually started a thread on it. Wow.


    There could be a myriad of reasons. if one is to f**k with the democrats it seems to be working.

    Indeed. How’s Hillary’s Presidency? Is she running for re-election?

    So, the title is not suggesting polling has been released but the article is about something the authors of said article could only really know if those polls had indeed been released.

    Do you mean the "conservative hack" McSally??

    Yuppers... Trump is kicking ass in Arizona by comparison to how she's doing in her race...

    John McCain is looking down with a wry smile.... I'm sure he'd be unhappy his state is turning blue, but the defeat of Trump and Trumpists would likely be rewarding...

    That's simply untrue. Biden and liberals are still mostly uninvolved. That changes after the conventions. Biden can't hide his way into the White House. So liberals whining about Trump simply isn't enough. Trump wins if all you folks offer is 'not Trump'. That's all the left is offering now. If there is any 'put up or shut up' going on, lets go with platforms. Biden's people riot, loot, and burn when they are displeased, Biden supports open borders, Biden has a horrible voting record. This thing is far from over like you folks like to pretend...
