Submitted by gjohnsit on Wed, 09/02/2020 - 8:33pmGranted, all of these polls are from right-leaning sources, but they are legit pollsters.

Democrats seem determined to lose to Trump again
Submitted by gjohnsit on Fri, 08/14/2020 - 5:11pmThis is starting to feel a whole bunch like 2016.
Back then Trump managed to steal the white working-class votes in the Rust Belt states because he talked about bad trade deals and how they cost us whole industries, while the Democrats wouldn't even consider the topic. The Democrats didn't care about the white working class in the Rust Belt states. They took them for granted for 40 years.

Trump Republicans are now the Lesser Evil
Submitted by gjohnsit on Thu, 05/28/2020 - 5:05pmFirst I want to clarify a few things.
Trump Republicans are still an evil that I won't support.
Secondly, if you identify with the cultural left then the Trump Republicans are still the greater evil.

How is that even possible?

Trump outflanks Democrats ON THE LEFT!
Submitted by gjohnsit on Thu, 03/19/2020 - 4:03pmTrump was already slightly to the left of the Democratic establishment on issues of wars and trade, but now the parties have totally switched positions.
Yes, the Storm is here--coming in on little cat feet
Submitted by Alligator Ed on Fri, 03/13/2020 - 4:46pmTrump declares a national emergency, the basis for which is COVID-19. But like the proverbial camel's nose getting into the tent, martial law is now applicable.
Constitutional and other law experts (which I am not) may agree or disagree. I can only rely upon that sacred legal source, Wikipedia (and other places) for this.

Tulsi cancellation remains strong
Submitted by Alligator Ed on Fri, 03/13/2020 - 1:47amTrump is handling the Coronavirus infection quite well so far
Submitted by Alligator Ed on Sat, 03/07/2020 - 4:39amFirst, credit to CB who made several stimulating comments to prior essays on COVID-19.
In this essay, you will find a mix of medicine, science (epidemiology), and politics. Where I speculate, this shall be clearly indicated. If material is not determined as speculative by me, then that material is considered by me to be reliable, considering the sources.
Bernie Sander swallows Russiagate whole: won't call out the nonsense
Submitted by Alligator Ed on Mon, 02/24/2020 - 3:58pmThose of you who think Bernard Sanders is "Mr. Right" or perhaps He Who Should Be President, please read no further. Your ears and eyes may bleed after reading this essay.
Pondering an appropriate subtitle for this essay, the following were considered:
The Camel's nose is under the tent (no reference to K. Harris)
The writing is on the wall (a la the curse of Babylon)
Lay down, roll over, and let me do it again
So many options.
