yeah there was a lot more that I didn't post. also that Georgia school district ended up with over 1000 kids/staff in quarantine and had to close one of their high schools. and it's only been a week. We just got two laptops for our kids so they can do their school work (if you haven't got one yet, do it now, they're selling out).
I honestly thought this was satire, BTW, but it's real. Hahahahaha:

Yeah, I watched the original too. Trump was fumbling around with those "charts and graphs" like a 12 year old boy who forgot to do his homework and showed up late to class.
BTW, Trump has registered to vote by mail in Florida. So apparently, it's fraudulent.. unless he does it.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-m...election-2020/President Trump requests mail-in ballot ahead of Florida's primary election
I wouldn't be shocked if this ends up hurting him more than it helps him. A lot of those older, white, rural voters are probably going to want to vote by mail, but he's discouraging them. I think Democrats and Independents are going to try to vote no matter what.
Also, Kanye West.. with Kushner trying to get him on the ballot, I think that is likely to backfire as well. There's only a smattering of polls out there, but it looks like he's pulling support from Trump, not Biden. Oops.Comment

Well, it's more than just Kushner trying to get him on the Ballot:Originally posted by nando View Post
WISCONSIN
Lane Ruhland, a former legal counsel for the Wisconsin Republican Party, was seen last week dropping off signatures for West to qualify in Wisconsin. Ruhland, who did not respond to a request for comment, represented the Trump campaign in a lawsuit at the end of July.
The Campaign for Accountability, a nonprofit watchdog group, filed a complaint with the Wisconsin Office of Lawyer Regulation to "investigate whether attorney Lane Ruhland engaged in conduct inconsistent with her ethical obligations as a member of the Wisconsin Bar."
"The fact that a lawyer for the Trump campaign is working to put Kanye West on the ballot suggests the West campaign is a sham," CFA Executive Director Michelle Kuppersmith said in a statement.
OHIO
An attorney at the Ohio law firm Isaac Wiles filed West's paperwork in the state. That firm has reportedly received thousands of dollars in legal consulting fees from the state House and Senate Republican campaign committees since 2015.
COLORADO
ABC reported that of Colorado's nine electors for West, four are current or former GOP operatives, including a former Colorado Republican political director. Vice News reported that Rachel George, a GOP strategist who runs her own communications firm and had worked for Republican Sen. Cory Gardner when he was in the House, sent an email to contacts asking them to sign up to support West. In an email obtained by Vice, George writes: "I have the most random favor to ask of you ever ... would you help me get Kanye West on the ballot in Colorado? No, I am not joking, and I realize this is hilarious."
"Bizarre and unusual"
Barry Burden, director of the Elections Research Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, says that while it's not unusual for a political party or party activists to try to keep a candidate off a ballot, the reverse is "bizarre and unusual."
"We've never really seen [that] before," Burden says.
"If this was happening in just one state, that there were a couple of Republican insiders who were aiding the Kanye West campaign, that would seem a little odd and kind of unexpected," he says. "But because we're seeing it now in multiple states, people who are either slated as electors, delegates or Republican attorneys working on behalf of Kanye West's effort to get on the ballot, it looks like something systematic and organized across large parts of the country."

Yeah it's bizarre. I think their idea is all black people will vote for him because he's black, you know, because they're racist morons? Do black people even like Kanye West?Comment

Well, he probably appeals to idiots of all races, so across the spectrum of idiots he'd draw voters from all parties too. Considering how someone voting for West is an idiot they'd probably be just as likely to select a presidential candidate at random, should they even be able to understand how to vote, so there shouldn't be much of an impact.Originally posted by nando View Post
On a serious note, we can't be sure at this stage if the West "campaign" is just paying political operators who'll work for anyone, or if there is some sort of misguided effort to draw votes from Biden. Seen a in a vacuum, West would probably draw votes from Biden as he is at the absolute other end of just about every spectrum. However, most of us don't exist in a vacuum, but some days I wish more of us did, what with the lack of oxygen.Comment
