Tiberius Posted May 22, 2020 Posted May 22, 2020 Look who is walking away!! about the coronavirus during a White House briefing Friday. | Alex Brandon/AP Photo By GABBY ORR 05/22/2020 03:26 PM EDT Facebook Twitter Link More A sudden shift in support for Donald Trump among religious conservatives is triggering alarm bells inside his reelection campaign, where top aides have long banked on expanding the president’s evangelical base as a key part of their strategy for victory this November. The anxiety over Trump’s standing with the Christian right surfaced after a pair of surveys by reputable outfits earlier this month found waning confidence in the administration’s coronavirus response among key religious groups, with a staggering decline in the president’s favorability among white evangelicals and white Catholics. Both are crucial constituencies that supported Trump by wide margins in 2016 and could sink his reelection prospects if their turnout shrinks this fall. The polls paint a bleak picture for Trump, who has counted on broadening his religious support by at least a few percentage points to compensate for weakened appeal with women and suburban populations. One GOP official said the dip in the president’s evangelical support also appeared in internal party polling, but disputed the notion that it had caused panic. Another person close to the campaign described an April survey by the Public Religion Research Institute, which showed a double-digit decline in Trump’s favorability among white evangelicals (-11), white Catholics (-12) and white mainline protestants (-18) from the previous month, as “pretty concerning.” https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/22/trump-churches-evaneglicals-coronavirus-274842 1

Tiberius Posted May 25, 2020 Posted May 25, 2020 Who is walking away? https://www.axios.com/biden-polling-seniors-trump-2ff44e93-290f-4bb2-995c-c944e54a2464.html President Trump's declining support among older voters since the coronavirus took hold is well documented, but new data offers a clearer understanding of why that's happening — and how it could impact the November election. The big picture: Among the 65+ crowd, it's women driving the exodus. Joe Biden's appeal with senior men climbed during his surprise comeback to be the presumed Democratic nominee, but not necessarily at Trump's expense — and new polling suggests it may be ebbing in any case. The coronavirus matters, but so does health care policy overall. By the numbers: A Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday shows Biden leading Trump by 22 points among female voters 65+, while Trump leads Biden by 11 points among older men. That's what gets Biden to a 10-point overall lead over the president among seniors. "There is a big gender gap among seniors in the matchup, just as there is among all registered voters," says poll director Doug Schwartz. "Older women really like Joe Biden, and they really don’t like Donald Trump." Since February, Quinnipiac data also shows Biden has increased his lead over Trump with independent 65+ voters, from seven to 20 points. Between the lines: The seeds were planted years ago. Biden has led Trump with seniors in theoretical matchups dating back to 2015. Trump's prospects with seniors have depended to a large degree on the alternative.

Deranged Rhino Posted May 25, 2020 Author Posted May 25, 2020 18 minutes ago, Prickly Pete said: I have been bickering with my business partner for 4 years. All along he claimed to believe the whole Russian Collusion, and every other bit of nonsense he could parrot. I'm talking shouting matches, on the verge of violence. So now that it's been so thoroughly decimated as utter bull####, and he is cornered, with no excuses handy, he brushes it all aside, and says "Both parties play dirty tricks on each other." We are kind of joined at the hip through the business, or I would ghost the #######. Sorry to hear that. I wish I could say it's going to get better soon, but this is really just starting. The next wave of information is going to be impossible to ignore (because they'll come with indictments). And the flames will be lit to deny, deny, deny and spin it as political persecution. That will make the discourse more unstable and hostile -- especially for those people who have abandoned their own independent thinking in favor of listening to proven liars and manipulators in the media project their sins onto others. 3

Yeah, it was just as stupid as when Hillary said that to excuse her loss. On a side note, how do you point your thumb back at yourself when pointing at others?
B-Man Posted June 14, 2020 Posted June 14, 2020 Civil Rights Attorney Explains Why He's 'Stopped Drinking the Democratic Kool Aid' Liberal civil rights attorney Leo Terrell has a message for anyone who’s still a Democrat: if you’re want law and order, you’re not going to get it from Democrats. From Townhall: “This is why I stopped drinking the Democrat Kool-Aid. I can’t take this hypocrisy anymore. [….] “Richard Russell from the South was against integration. He was opposed to anti-lynching bills. That’s what bothers me about this whole thing, that Democrats, just because of the D in their name, they could be a racist,” Terrell explained. “That statement by Joe Biden is so offensive and then you spike lee out there and say, ‘It’s okay.’ That’s offensive. If any Republican said the same thing they would be in trouble, big trouble.” “Joe Biden gave us the crime bill in 1994. President Trump gave us the First Step,” he said. “The bottom line is this: I don’t need the Democrats to insult me or try to placate me with African garb, Nancy Pelosi. Pass some laws. Pass some reforms. Show me something other than some kind of condescending act just because you’re a Democrat. That doesn’t follow anymore.” Terrell then finished it off encouraging Democrats to “walk away.” “Last point, Democrats, please leave the party. If you want law and order, you cannot get it from the Democrats.” 2
