Lurker, rare poster here...the next 68 days can’t go by any faster. Doubt anyone in here is changing their vote at this point. I just want the election to get over with so we can have normal discourse in here rather than the same Deloitte/business analyst/Manager spamming every thread with junk. And I say this as someone that voted for Trump in 2016.

None of the people here are likely changing their mind before Nov. But recent polling is showing many swing voters slowly but surely moving back towards Trump as a combination of several factors. So a lot can change in 67 days

Pwc- Might be a tactic to not flood already expensive media markets in AZ, MI, GA or NC so that senate candidates can spend without the price rising too much.

Regardless, I think that news coverage of riots and improving COVID news is as helpful for the campaign as any ad Trump can be

“Wisconsin is a key swing state and President Donald Trump has been struggling with his appeal to suburban women, a once reliable vote for Republicans in Wisconsin. The events in Kenosha, however, may sway people who are turned off by Trump’s style, but never expected safety, law, and order to be a top [issue] in this election. Rioting and violence in Minnesota following the killing of George Floyd has resulted in a tightening of poll numbers in the state that once favored Democrats. The latest poll shows Minnesota in a dead heat with Biden…

“Watching a historic industrial Wisconsin city go up in flames may have a similar impact on poll numbers in the important suburbs of Milwaukee, where violence and movements to defund the police are unpopular.”
Evita Duffy, The Federalist

It’s not about whether things calmed down quickly or not. It’s about whether swing voters prefer more law enforcement- Portland didn’t calm down, but perhaps they feel like it would have been worse without trump sending the military. Again this is not my perspective but ignoring the fact that many people do feel like this and that they’re triggered by “defund the police” will only put us in an ignorance is bliss mindset

Could really use some kind words today. We had to say goodbye to our sweet girl on Saturday. She had severe pancreatitis and just couldn't bounce back. She was so sweet and affectionate, never met a person whose lap she didn't want to sit on. Feeling a lot of guilt that we should have tried harder before making the decision to put her to sleep. Maybe she could have bounced back if we had just waited. We miss her terribly. She loved us so much and I'm just really struggling today.

As some one who’s on the left political spectrum, there are some things I just don’t understand

1) What is genuinely wrong with universal, free healthcare provided by a government entity ?

2) Why is there opposition to taxing the super rich at 70%?

3) Is it not clear that electoral campaigns sponsored by corporations are problematic for a democratic society ?

4) Everyone says “get an education” but that’s impossible with high costs. Why not make tuition free of charge ?
