Nice to meet someone who rejects all polling because polling generally polls only 1,500 or so.
Well, there goes another branch of mathematics.

People are naive if they are flummoxed at cults not being logical, or immediately adapting what they recently opposed.
This is why the Epstein files will not hurt the fΓΌhrer and may in fact make pedophilia the norm.
"Did you know Jesus's mother was only 13 when she gave birth? That turned out ok"
It is what got us out of the Great Depression.
And the relative no-competition period from mid 1940s to late 1960s enriched the Boomers and made them insufferable.

The good news fwiw is that, now that itβs here for reals, people donβt like it. MN backfired and that wasnβt a given. My greatest fear was that Americans would be fine with a full blown autocracy. MN proved otherwise. The real struggle is just starting but people are waking up.

"Papers please" became a reality with protestors wearing passports around their necks.
Good and Pretti are basically forgotten.
Fascism is continuing unabated.
Denialism is rampant if we can't even acknowledge we are under a fascist regime.
The Gestapo is funded, the concentration camps built!!
Why do you say MN backfired?
They disappeared several people.
Teargassed or pepper-sprayed dozens of protests.
Arrested protestors.
Murdered two people on camera and no investigations are allowed.
Shut off funds for fraud.
Claimed ICE was leaving but they're still there.

I suspect that he'll soon be a target. Israel's intelligence sources in Iran have been pretty accurate. It takes some deep knowledge to kill off a large portion of the top leadership even when they know that the attacks are imminent.

US attacks Iran. Iran attacks those that aid the US.
Qatar aids the US.
A diplomatic solution requires the aggressor to be amenable. The US is not.
No idea why people cling to the idea that *only* 27-30% of us are really with him. Imagine what that means for Harris who got fewer votes.
This is a deeply divided nation. About half of us love the fascist or don't mind that he is one.
Yes. I thought that was clear when I said 49.6% of us who voted.
That is a sample size of 140 million.
When you see polls showing him at 41%, they use a sample size of around 1,500. (Which is still statistically sound within the MoE, but not comparable to 140 million.)
About half is accurate.
You are fucking NBC News. You know goddamn well that he cannot abolish a department that was set up according to a statute.
Stop gargling his balls and pretending he is allowed to do the crazy illegal shit he is claiming he will do.
This is illegal. THAT is the newsworthy part of it. Report that.
The problem is that if he shutters the DOE, there is no remedy available under the Constitution.
So, it is moot whether he can abolish it or not.
(HE CANNOT)
No one can run it outside of the executive branch.
This sounds tone deaf.

49.6% is what he got.
A massive sample size. Better than any poll that has about 1,500 (still statistically sufficient for a +/- 4%, but not as accurate as a sample size of 140 million).
And comparing apples to apples, Harris had less. Biden, barely 53%.
No, Trump has *about half the nation*.
I suspect nearly half the nation is with him.
Even now.
It won't.
But it'll make fighting invaders and running the country impossible for the mullahs.
TACO 45 is desperate for an internal rebellion that they can fund. That way, no ground troops.
To be sure, it won't be easy, after all, we tried that first with Saddam.
But this asshole is different.

The undecideds are Trump voters pretending to be undecided because they crave the attention they get from the mainstream media.
Remember these undecided assholes?
They can bomb the bloodline of the economy. Refineries, factories, oil fields...
No ground troops needed for that.
They have plenty of bombs and air superiority.
Unlike Bush who didn't want Iraq in perpetual ruin, TACO 45 doesn't care. Doesn't care to occupy either, which would be devastating.
What is disheartening to me is that it is around half the population or slightly more, and I have to carp frequently about that number.
The nation is far more wretched than a mere 30%. About half of us either love that he is a fascist or donβt mind that he is one.
49.6% of those pf us who voted.
