So because he has far right political views he shouldn't have his number raised? That not only seems petty given his legacy as a Flame but it is discriminatory as well. I totally disagree with his political views but do you think he is going to talk politics during his speech? I don't see that.
Yup totally agree.
This started in 2016, with "the deplorables" and now it's been doubled down. If you are in any associated with anything on the right, you're worthless. That's a very dangerous way of thinking.
Did you guys see the girl scouts tweet yesterday? They congratulated Amy Coney Barrett for being the 5th women ever confirmed to the Supreme Court. Something thing they would do for any woman confirmed. And they got so much abuse for it, they had to delete it and apologize.

Pennsylvania is a good gauge of whether it's an easy Biden win or not. But it's not that likely to be the one deciding state. If we're waiting on that one, then the election will be way closer than projected.
Problem is Pennsylvania doesn't start counting until the voting stops, But if Florida goes blue early Trump should get his old 757 out of the mothballs and skip to Russia because it's done.

Here is Hillary Clinton's exact "deplorables" quote, copied verbatim:
“You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic—you name it. And unfortunately there are people like that. And he has lifted them up.”
What part of that do you disagree with?

Do you really think half the people that voted for Trump are racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic—you name it? God forbid someone want lower taxes.
Politics and social media has drove everyone insane.

The funny thing about Pennsylvania is it might not even matter. If Biden takes North Carolina and Arizona he wins. Biden has many paths to winning now it seems, Trump is down to the same map as last time pretty much, without Wisconsin and Michigan.

You’re right, half is way too low.
Also, citation on lower taxes please. Or is this a low key flex that you make over $400k/yr?

He said some pretty racist things leading up to the election. The way I see it, of you voted for someone with unapologetic racist policies, then...

"He"? I was referring to the "deplorables" that voted for Trump. Some people just want lower taxes.... it's really that simple.
He gave lower taxes to people making $400k or more per year and raised them for the middle class.
Clinton was clearly talking about the Confederate flag waiving, militia cosplay crowd that was supporting Trump.
I can buy that some people held their nose and voted for Trump to get personal gain, even if they were not racists, but that isn't really a good thing either.
Trump has a long history of saying racist things. Back when he was running for election, he called the settlement that the Central Park Five received a "disgrace" and insisted they should have received the death penalty. I mean, if you vote for someone like that for personal gain, it's kind of deplorable. Not to mention his "I wouldn't want to live with them", and "they are rapists" comments about minorities. But hey, as long as I get lower taxes I suppose.

Most people vote in their self interest... it's not a bad thing either.

Half? Like 30 million voters are racists? The voters she abandoned? On what grounds are they racist?
The goalposts are moving, we will eventually be caught in the racist sexist cycle. Just say something wrong you dont know is wrong.

“Trump better beat that puppet of Obama if you want Canada to survive.”
I don’t know what to make of that stupidity. I think I’ll ignore it.
I'd like to know based on what exactly?
I've come across a few who've said roughly the same. Lives will be in shambles, people will lose homes and trade partners will suffer if the dems get in. I ask them why that is exactly and I never get a straight response.
They just believe Trump's words blindly and don't look any further into it than that to even see if there's an iota of truth to his statements.
And its fine to do that if you want to live in ignorance, but don't have the ####in audacity to try to tell other people what to think based on your poorly informed sponging of that con man's bs.
UFO believers should be giving their tin foil hats to these people.
