She was with the President on Air Force One to and from the debate without a mask.

I was going to toss this in the Trump Presidency thread, but I guess it's here.
It would also be so 2020 if Trump doesn't get anything or just a mild case and then gives it to Biden. SI

I'm sure it's no big deal, I don't want the president to panic.

James Dolan and Harvey Weinstein have both survived it so Trump will likely be asymptomatic.

I'm not sure Jim Carrey is right for the role but Maya Rudolf will be great. Don't have NBC so will have to watch the clips Sun morning.

I think Jim Carey will be great, but I am concerned that he won't be willing to do it long term. I don't see him being there every show like Alec Baldwin.

Jim Carrey doesn't have to do it long term. Just during the election and then they can find an in house person to do Biden (or hire a comedian to be in house who is mostly to do Biden).

I just didn't think he did it well. He played Biden kind of how Trump sees him - hopped up on Adderall. I thought Woody Harrelson did a better job the one or two times he played him. Steve Martin was my top choice.

We actually can write off that Republican. Some of us have been doing so for a year now. But not for that reason. Here's something posted on my facebook today. It was written by a fairly influential conservative evangelical author and speaker who has done some legitimately fine work in some other areas.

Whatever country they live in, it must be awful. Persecution of religion, removal of parental rights, and living in the suburbs is some prison sentence. But hey, they have racial unity there, so they have that going for them. It must be because all peoples are united in a common cause against this tyrannical government (or it's all one race, I suppose).

I'm really sad for Joe Biden, who cannot praise God without fear. You know the Catholic who goes to Mass every Sunday he can.

...and clearly when they wanted to do a photo op with a bible to make an important statement, he was using his own personal bible, and not something they had to go grab from a cheap hotel room.

And definitely wasn't holding it upside down. And can definitely name a favorite Bible verse.

Honest to God, Trump's leaving money on the table by not selling a Trump branded bible.

Polls mean squat when 20% of ballots in the black community are being rejected in North Carolina. They know they can't win a fair election.

Where do you get 20% from that? The highest number I see for rejections there is 4.2%.

That says 16.8%, and more importantly what happens in one county doesn't support a claim of that magnitude covering the whole state. We need to keep an eye on this, and having that triple the rejection rate in Guildford for a particular group is a massive red flag. At the same time, if this is the best someone can do for voter suppression, it's quite mild overall at the state level with small differences between various party affiliations with rejection rates etc.
In other words, it's exactly what I'm talking about when I say people who assume Trump is going to steal the election, 'polls mean squat' etc. are demonstrating Chicken Little Syndrome. |

It updated. It did say 20% when it was first posted.

The point is, the statewide number says 4.2 and there's nothing there that says 20% statewide, which is what your original claim was. As I said, that doesn't mean there isn't a gap there that needs to watched and addressed. It does mean we should be accurate about what that gap is. The table you just posted is a great way to do that. The original claim is not.

I didn't know that anyone would know your race when you vote, but apparently that's a part of voter registration in the south.
In learning that, I came across 538's discussion of possible reasons for disproportionate rejection rates, particularly in states that make you go through some hoops to fill out a ballot, which is going to be more difficult for new voters.

So now Pence does not want any plexiglass dividers around him, but says Harris can have them around her if she wants... what is the issue with just having one go down the stage? What an idiot Pence is.
