This is what really makes me shake my heads at some of the Trump supporters on here. You pretend to not trust polling data, but whenever one is actually favorable for Trump? It gets posted with "likes". Why don't you post every single other poll from Morning Consult? You literally posted the only state poll which shows Trump with a lead. Morning Consult has Trump losing in states that he can't afford to lose, like Arizona, North Carolina and Georgia.... but that's fake news, right?

If Biden can carry GA, it will be the first time I can actually say "I live in GA" with a sense of pride.

There weren't polls showing Hillary Clinton with a lead in states such as Georgia, North Carolina and Arizona in September of 2016. Biden has a very clear path to victory and more margin for error. Those three states are house money for Biden. Biden doesn't even need to win Florida. Of the states which are close, Biden just needs Pennsylvania.

Trump was given a chance to condemn the white teen gunman in Kenosha, Wisconsin, who obviously was on video not defending himself when he killed two people... and Trump declined. Clearly, there are two different sets of rules for white people with guns then there are for blacks. There is no way a black teen gunman could kill two people in the street like that and walk away without getting arrested. This is an offshoot of the divisiveness of Trump.

What part wasn’t self defense? You conveniently leave out the other shooting where the rioter killed a man in cold blood.

Former Whitmer Aide Hired by Biden Stonewalls Legislative Probe

Aide helped steer lucrative contact tracing contract to Dem data firm

A former top aide to Michigan Democratic governor Gretchen Whitmer—who has since been hired to help lead Joe Biden's campaign in the state—is stonewalling a legislative probe into his role in steering a lucrative coronavirus contract to a Democratic consulting firm.

Ed Duggan, a former state employee now serving as Biden's Michigan political director, rebuffed a call from Republican legislators to testify before Michigan's Joint Select Committee on the COVID-19 Pandemic. The committee was created to examine the state's handling of the virus after Whitmer awarded a no-bid contact tracing contract to a Democratic campaign vendor recommended by Duggan.

"Today, former Whitmer administration employee Ed Duggan notified our committee that he's refusing to testify about his participation in a highly suspect political no-bid government contract," state lawmakers Matt Hall and Aric Nesbitt said in a Friday statement. "Citizens expect accountability, so hopefully his current employer, Joe Biden, will require Ed Duggan to testify and provide the people of Michigan answers."

The contract would have seen Democratic political consultant Mike Kolehouse and liberal data behemoth NGP VAN collect sensitive health data from thousands of Michigan residents. Internal emails show that Duggan introduced Kolehouse to top health department officials in late March, describing the liberal operative as someone who "does some organizing and can help on some efforts." Whitmer rescinded the contract in April amid concerns that she was using the pandemic to boost the Democratic Party's data operation.

The Biden campaign hired Duggan, despite his role in the controversy, as its Michigan political director in late June, touting his role as a former "special adviser" to Whitmer. Duggan is also the son of Detroit mayor Mike Duggan (D.). Whitmer, a former VP hopeful who serves as a Biden campaign co-chair, defended the decision to employ Kolehouse by claiming that those awarding the contract did not "have a political bone in their theoretical body."

Conservative Takeover of Appeals Court in Reach with Trump Reelection

Near-total control of the federal appeals courts is within reach for legal conservatives if President Donald Trump is reelected, administration allies believe.

While the pace of Trump's judicial appointments has been steady, about two-thirds of his circuit court nominees have replaced Republican-appointed judges, University of Richmond law professor Carl Tobias told the Washington Free Beacon. A second Trump term would offer Republicans a chance to replace many judges nominated by Democrats as well, elevating Trump's judicial record from productive to transformational. The prospect of further appointments to the Supreme Court is also realistic, a chilling notion for Democrats that prompted the party to endorse "structural reform" of the judiciary during the DNC.

Research provided to the Free Beacon by the Article III Project (A3P) shows that 59 circuit court judges were eligible for "senior status," a form of quasi-retirement, at the start of 2020—about 60 percent of them Democratic appointees. It's a figure that makes Trump's supporters bullish about the future.

Or like Obama jumping into every shooting before facts were known and ending up looking ridiculous because the "victim" beat up a cop in the cops cruiser.

Trump has shown a double standard in his public handling of right-wing extremism. The Charlottesville protests were not completely peaceful. An idiot named James Fields Jr. drove his car into a crowd and killed a young woman named Heather Heyer. He has since been sentenced to life in prison. The rhetoric we got from Trump was "there were good people on both sides". The way Trump spoke about Charlottesville was completely different in tone. He had sympathy for what those white nationalists were protesting, even though not all of them were behaving in a peaceful manner. It's a very clear double standard when the protesters are white.

We now define those as "mostly peaceful" when they contained any peace at all. We appreciate your compliance with this

Should a potus inject himself into a single court case within a day of it happening?

If I had a son.

Very fine people on both sides.

One describes the actual individual involved. The other is talking about groups of people not directly involved in the death. I have always found this a very odd point of contention.

Do y'all know why Progressives are upset? Just mad and angry.

Have y'all seen a Joe Biden commercial? I'd be mad too. You get that amateur hour feeling.
