These goons deserve the most humiliating election loss in history. Please make it happen, America.

So if the Secret Service is tasked with protecting the President... it seems to me that they should be able to identify the President himself as a pretty massive threat against the President they're supposed to be protecting.

Just storm the Office and be like, "Sir, you are currently in danger. There have been multiple attacks over the last few days, and in order to protect the President, we need to get you away from yourself."

Then it's off to a rubber room and the world never has to hear about the guy ever again.

In addition to his plummeting numbers among women, polls are also now showing his senior voting bloc Advantage has completely collapsed and then some. He won the group by 7 points in 2016...a NBC/Wall Street poll has him behind 27 (yes 27...62 % vs 35 %) points and CNN poll puts him behind 21 points (60% to 39%).

Seems like Seniors who have a significant chance of dying from a virus don’t like it if you pretend it doesn’t exist and don’t provide help etc.

Also while Biden is well behind with non-college degree white voters, he is much closer than Clinton was.

All these super positive election polls make me nervous. I don't think we'll be allowed anything good in 2020.

So, just to show you how smart the Proud Boys are, they changed their hashtag from #proudboys to #leathermen. Take a look at how that's working out for them...

Quinnipiac (B+ rated) releasing a devastating batch of polls today:
Biden up +11 in Florida
+13 in Pennsylvania
+ 5 in Iowa
Greenfield (D) +5 in Iowa senate race


edit: while that Florida poll definitely looks outlierish (most others between +1 and +6), it's worth noting that in July they had Biden +13, and then +3 in August, so maybe there's something odd in their sampling in Florida.

I love seeing all these polls. Gives hope for a return to something closer to normalcy for the US. It also puts Trump and the Republicans with their backs against the wall, which makes me wonder just how extreme the craziness may get.

Yeah that is a bit bouncier than you’d expect the result to be, at a time when most polls indicate the race is very stable. Frankly Biden being up double digits in Florida doesn’t really make sense to me, but that’s just based on my unscientific hunch that Florida gonna Florida in this election like it always does.

Do they really think that will deter George Takei et al from their campaign to embarrass the Proud Boys?
