    Trump joked about Biden being shot 3 weeks into office.

    He is an entertainer there to garner TV ratings for the network nothing more.

    FOX News in court basically said you shouldn't believe anything he says..

    So you question the sourcing from well rated independent polling companies but post content from a well documented liar as if it is a fact? :confused:

    I suppose you think the next Timothy McVeigh or John Hinckley Jr. is going to make the distinction?

    So absolutely no metrics involved and one (extremely biased) source as quoted. An nth of critical thinking would throw up many red flags when reading this

    Backed up by nothing. Claims to have documents, hasn’t produced any. Same with Guliani and his laptop. Claims to have a lot of incontrovertible proof but then is incredibly vague when asked for specifics.

    I cant find the reference but apparently the rallies are actually decreasing support for Trump in the states in which they are held.

    As opposed as to how many watched Biden

    Are we still on the Biden corruption stuff when Republican led investigations showed nothing. Trump could get nothing out of Ukraine which led to his impeachment and Guilliani and Barr have spent months trying to dig up any kind of dirt on them and failed..

    On flip side Trump and his associates are the most corrupt individuals ever to be part of the White House. Trumps three campaign managers in 2016 either all in prison or facing prison time. Trumps own family with scandals up to their eyeballs

    of him

    Eh.

    You should have seen how that same guest's paper leak fell apart to even the lightest of scrutiny from someone who wasn't just a MAGA or Bust hack like Carlson or Hannity

    He was so pissed she wasn't eating the story out of his hand, and wanted basic verification, that he threatened to storm off at one point. T'was gas.

    Amazing turnouts for Trump every place he goes 1000s turn up
    Two and three times a day


    Biden Harris nobody bothers ?
    Even Obama couldnt pull more than a 100 people

    Car rallys not part of trump campaign 35000 and 75000 cars
    miles of trump supporters

    Amazing to watch the likes of ABC CNN etc ignore it

    That's like me arguing that Football can't be the most popular sport in the UK because I watched Liverpool, the Champions, play a premier league match in a ground with a capacity of 54,074 and there was, at most, 200 people in the stadium for it.

    Just to put McDaniel's tweet and Murtaugh's comments in context...

    "NOT Republican" evidently means not registered Republican.

    In 2016 elections, 780,456 votes were cast in the state.

    Registration wise, in that same year there were 584,948 Republicans, 370,463 Democrats, 247,734 non-partisan and 11,569 Libertarians.

    40% of the sign-ups at that rally amounts to 17,460.

    Whichever way you look at it, you're looking at a small percentage of voters spread across a fairly large demographic in a system where voters can still vote for whichever candidate they wish on election day.

    Thankfully the USA hasn’t completely gone to pot yet and the burden of proof here is with his accusers. If they had anything that wasn’t hearsay or circumstantial, obviously we’d know it by now.

    Biden is doing what any normal person would do, paying this nonsense no mind.

    Would you ever give over! This bleating about a laptop is pathetic at this stage. A load of ****e peddled by an amadan who was duped by Russian stooges into hawking their BS to fools in a New York rag that's not fit to wrap chips in! And this is the same amadan who was duped by a Bulgarian actor into thinking he was going to fiddle with a 15-year old he was plying whiskey to in a hotel bedroom while his bodyguard was standing guard outside! Spare me! Seriously!!!

    You have not presented an opposing opinion or much of anything. Some vague references to what a random entertainment personality said last night and some meaningless figures.

    Early voting is already more than 50% of the total votes in 2016.

    How about audio of him saying his business partner was top Chinese chief Spy
    would that be more convincing

    Good 538 analysis of that wild 17 point lead for Biden in WI:

    https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/what-to-make-of-that-new-wisconsin-poll-that-has-biden-way-ahead/

    Something very relevant to Trump's pig-stupid Covid rallies:
    Nationally, the coronavirus is a losing issue for Trump — 58 percent of Americans disapprove of his handling of the pandemic, on average, compared with just 40 percent who approve — and Wisconsin is no different. According to ABC News/Washington Post, Trump’s net disapproval rating on his handling of the coronavirus in Wisconsin is -20 percentage points — double what it was in mid-September. And 63 percent of registered voters there say they are worried about catching COVID-19. What’s more, Biden leads by a whopping 75 percent to 22 percent among members of this bloc who say they are likely to vote.

    My mum used to say the phrase "you're only fooling yourself" a lot to me when I was a child.

    Sure in 2016 I was there in Greenville SC when Bernie filled a stadium. Doesn't mean the state became a Communist regime, either.

    But thats not the case a poster said 600,000 watching a broadcast is not indicitave of the population
    but a couple of hundred from polls are ?
    The democrat attendees were there even before the election campaign really kicked in

    So, you know how Trump wanted his disciples to go act as 'poll watchers'? Well, here's some of these very fine people 'watching' a drive-in voter in Los Angeles:

    When Trump calls for “poll watchers,” this is what he wants.
