decades ago.

And of course no body not MAGA would suggest there is any parity whatsoever about between Trump being taken off a ballot and slavery.

I don't think he needs being taken off the ballot except to poke him in the eye, a venial sin I confess. I do believe he will not be on the ballot, and if he was it would hand Joe Biden a landslide. Sca-rew the polls until October.

4. Biden would have the largest blowout running against Тяцмp

Lots of repugs have tired of him and a lot of R women are pissed off over abortion rights.
With Тяцмp on the ticket their party is divided which helps us.

7. Sadly, that's not what the polls are saying

One thing you can usually count on with Republicans is to shut up and fall in line once Dear Leader get nominated. They're the ones who joined at the edges of the lynch mobs in the 1920s and the ones who fell for McCarthyism panics in the 1950s. They're not naturally evil, just gullible, conformist, and easily panicked.

Bob Kennedy will fade in the polls soon enough, but I think he's probably pulling more votes away from Trump at this point. Our job is far from done.

Never before have the reQubliCONs had someone running for President who was facing 91
indictments and possible jail time let alone all the negative information that keeps coming out about
something he did or is going to do.

Plus I don't put much stock in polls anymore, 20/30 years ago they could be fairly accurate but today
it's most of MSM leaning R that paints Rs as winning to get us to stay home on election day.

Last 2 elections the polls had big losses for us and it didn't happen. That's my 2 cents anyway.
