This is America.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/graph...ee-star-motel/ Seriously. If you watched The Florida Project and you thought to yourself, that's a nice bit of drama and exaggeration. Then you need to read that.

I'm a bit worried about the Continuing Resolution lasting only until December 11. If Trump loses, I wonder if he'll shut down the government out of spite.

Doesn't matter if it Dallas, Harris, Travis, Bexar, or Tarrant counties where there are millions of people, or if it is Brewster or Loving counties with a couple of hundred. Only one drop off point. Makes perfect sense.

I saw 4.8 million people in Harris County and now 1 drop off.
I used to get a lot of flack for saying the GOP is building an apartheid state, but now I mostly get resignation from the left and scoreboard, bitch type bragging from the right.

That's so utterly transparent. I'm hoping a court can reverse this quickly.

On the one hand, it’s good that the GOP is being punished for their horrific policy positions over the last 20 years by being unable to win free and fair elections—even in places like Texas
On the other, it is really bad they they seem more likely than not to get away with canceling free and fair elections. |

Bonus points if it's due to Covid restrictions while they completely open up the economy.

Reading an NBC article on my phone about how well the GOP is ramping up its voter registration in key states, like FL. Since March, GOP has doubled registrations over Dems in FL.

I'm curious what the GOP math is on how they see a win happening. It's obvious Florida is a key, but they had pulled ads in Pennsylvania and Michigan which you'd think are also key states for a Trump win. There aren't many realistic scenarios where Trump loses those 2 states and still wins. |

Trump thinks they can flip MN, NV and NH which all seem unlikely. If this were any other nominee they'd be pivoting to save the Senate.

In a move surprising no one...more voter suppression by the GOP: Texas governor to close mail-in ballot drop-off boxes, limiting one per county
Sorry Abbot, but, you don't get use Covid as an excuse when you've been doing next to everything to act like it's not a big deal.

PA House Republicans had a house member on the floor who was Covid positive, while most of their delegation refuse to wear masks. And they're working on legislation to attempt to steal the election.

538 did a bit on Minnesota. The thesis is that it has been traditionally the bluer of the Midwestern states because a lot of the rural whites there have tended to be Lutheran and leaned Democratic. Now, that lean is going away. And it is actually a pretty rural and white state, so it is trending red more quickly than the other Midwestern states. Trump's camp sees that, and I think is trying to get it to jump red a cycle or two early. (Also, it is a cheaper state in which to compete, and they seem a bit money strapped). |

Didn't this happen like 3 months ago? Or is this the second time? I specifically remember a Dem PA house member throwing a fit on a video several months ago about a GOP house member who was positive and who only told GOP members while they all carried on business as usual.

So apparently Hope Hicks has tested positive for COVID. She flew on AF1 to the debates and to the rally in Minnesota.

Wait, why is Trump quarantining while waiting for test results? If he doesn't get tested, he can't have it, right?

Can't help but wonder if it's just a sympathy play. Then he'll "overcome" it and show how strong he is, and that people who don't are losers and cowards.
