I'm curious. As a dad, is it ok to pimp out your little girl in this suggestive way?? Trump introduced her at 13 to Epstein's NYC parties. Trump's modelling agency supplied girls, including Ivanka.

I see no tattooed faces in this picture. These are men who've had no due process to prove in a court before a judge that they were gang members. Are you so gullible that you just blindly believe a rapist criminal who released violent Jan 6 thugs actually proven guilty in courts?

Surely Elon Musk @elonmusk has more creative things to do than reduce the size of the Federal work force? It is still the same size as in 1970 and just 4.3% of the Federal budget

No landslide - Trump beat Harris to win the popular vote by just 1.55%. That is as close to a tie as we have had since the 1860s, except for Bush/Gore which was just a tad closer than that.

It's not just a hashtag. Once a country has to offer 20% interest, clearly its banking is in very serious danger

The counting is not at 100% yet in CA, where voting's slow as all on paper, and voters can come in and fix mistakes (cure ballots) to ensure every last vote is counted. It's trending blue, so I think Individual 1 could be under 1.5% when its all counted nytimes.com/interactive/2024…

Big whoop. GOGE would save at most 4.3% by firing every civil servant in every agency (AKA the old GOP "drown government in the bathwater") Most spending is medicare and social security = non discretionary

Even if billionaire Musk fires every civil servant in every agency - they constitute just 4.3% of Federal expenditure

Replying to @RobBonta
That is out of date. Votes are still being counted and daily diminishing his popular vote, (which won't change the reults, which are based on the electoral swing states) Trump's win is only 1.6% as of yesterday

No, it wasn't sexism. Look at how Biden was polling far far worse against their golden calf. She got us to a 50/50 split, Once CA, WA OR finish their counts of overseas and mail ballots that take forever, she'll be popular vote winner by a smidgeon, but he's hit his ceiling.

Because Trump has brilliantly succeeded in creating a new cult religion; I Alone. His illiterate adherents don't learn on youtube videos there's more candidates, they don't know congress writes legislation - their glorious new golden god simply waves his hand and It Is Done

I'm OK with a recount to check in swing states, but we Democrats are the rational voters: We don't fall for conspiracy theories like MAGA. It could have gone either way him 48/47 or her 49/45 were equally likely per WaPo polling aggregation for months, was closer; within the MOE

You are probably just a bot, so wasting time, but this is the WaPo map by zip code of Harris V Trump donors in Iowa when I first noticed how blue it looked:

I was surprised too by the number of donors to Harris in Iowa in WaPo's map of donor numbers by zip code nationally. Maybe a better predictor than polling? It was getting as blue as neighboring MN or Illinois.

Not 'his' checks, the Democratic House had passed them, and Trump kept delaying the signed bill till finally Mnuchin cajoled him with a sweetie: you can sign them; you'll be loved as their saviour. Nope. Democrats fought you and the GOP to get those covid checks to us all.

This halloween we remember the horror of Trump administration pandemic non-response. The nation's medical workers had to don garbage bags to protect themselves against covid because Trump had tossed the Obama administration's pandemic preparedness plans.

Replying to @thejackhopkins
WaPo shows that the extremely wide MOE of today allows for either side to win. But they do use just good pollsters to average and currently they are all within 1 or 2 points of dead heat. So WaPo is not including ie betting 'market' grift polls
27
Replying to @JCTheResistance
Outlier polls are not important. Pollsters who are under 3 stars in 538 should be ignored. WaPo does an excellent job of showing why, and their polling averages from the reputable pollsters has looked like this all along. Gift Article WaPo: wapo.st/3C4nU9l

WaPo collation of reputable pollsters only, ie NYT/Siena/ YouGov, etc has shown that people are rational

Where can you see voting info? I'm freaked out by the relatively low voting in GA cities. During the week, understandable - with work - but now? It looks like a nuclear bomb went off

Replying to @CarolLeonnig
I much appreciate your excellent reporting but who decided to use a pale pink as the nopartisan center to indicate equal number of donors to Harris and Trump??? There's four shades on each side. Doesn't pink suggest that these are skewed Trump? That the entire country is Trumpy?

Iowa looking surprisingly blue?? Farmers already learned Trump tariffs r hell: If you put tariffs on imports those nations retaliate. His Chinese farm import tax led China to tax on our soy exports, so we all had to bail farmers out with $28 billion: Gift: wapo.st/48jVsfC

Hi Joel, there is an error in your story about the donations by zipcode. The center pink does NOT denote Trump donors as you'd assume. The legend says that's "roughly equal" number of Harris/Trump donors in that zip. Both get 4 tones, + pink is neutral. Fascinating new story?
11
WaPo has a great map showing how many donors sent $ to help Harris versus Trump. But see the middle color indicating "roughly equal" is pale pink. This gives a wrong impression that they sent money to Trump. So don't be fooled, check the data Gift article wapo.st/48jVsfC

Replying to @egavactip
Less so:(Gift Article) data donor numbers by zip. We are everywhere, red states and blue. Unlike crap shoots of betting markets or the 3.5 MOE of poll responses, EVERY PERSON who donates - will definitely vote. WaPo colors 50/50 zips as pink, I clarify it wapo.st/4eVgvYx

So many donors for Harris even in rural zip codes (colored pale pink but they should be pale purple as they are evenly split by numbers of people making donations to Harris and Trump (amounts show it's not really rich donors either, just everyone) gift: wapo.st/4eXgJyg

I've been watching that too, and PA is among the most skewed: I took this screenshot a few days ago. Blue states for comparison where women aren't personally at risk more balanced M/F (like CA)

LOL. Betting markets don't predict elections: Polls have better odds: within the 3.5 point margin of error, looks like Harris will squeak by to win as MI, WI, and PA are enough to win 270 (with the blue states).

NBC data on early voting in PA shows its skewing 56/43 female but I'm concerned about how (check the age button) its 80% people over 50. What percent of the voting public is in each age group? nbcnews.com/politics/2024-el…
