Here is Silver's explanation of today's data, which is easy to fault > his model is "basically subtracting a net 2 points from Harris for polls during/immediately after the DNC. So it treats the Emerson PA poll today showing a tie as Trump +2, and that gets a lot of weight as the only fully post-DNC/RFK PA poll."

and - to be clear - I think you need to drastically adjust your expectations.
you have been reasonable in the past - you're like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie right now.
💯Joe did her no favors today nixing Ukraine's use of missiles inside Russia; went against a strong public opinion that Ukraine should be able to defend themselves without being restrained.
On the other hand, Trump's idiots did him no favors at Arlington.
The number of screw ups that these two can pull by November is unlimited.
I'm not following the Arlington comment. He was invited by Gold Star families. Who says no to that?Joe did her no favors today nixing Ukraine's use of missiles inside Russia; went against a strong public opinion that Ukraine should be able to defend themselves without being restrained.

no notes.
Tom Cotton had a great response to the Arlington "issue" yesterday. He was a member of the honor guard and said only time he asked anyone to stop filming or taking pictures were at the request of the family. In this case, the families asked Trump to be there, so if the families didn't mind pictures then there is no issues. He said walk thru Arlington Cemetary any day, many folks are taking pictures. I have done so too on my trip. Cotton is one the cleanup person for Trump, and he seemed to do a good job with this one.Joe did her no favors today nixing Ukraine's use of missiles inside Russia; went against a strong public opinion that Ukraine should be able to defend themselves without being restrained.

Cotton's comments as interpolated here do not speak to the controversy:Tom Cotton
If the family invites Trump to the service and are ok with the pictures then what is the issue? If Trump puts it in an advertisement then pushback seems reasonably otherwise don’t see an issue. Another group that is getting fired should Trump win, right after the top brass at the National Archives. Many pink slips could be going out in Washington in January of 2025…..Tom Cotton is not authoritative on this. He's not even speaking to the controversy:
"Memorial services and ceremonies at Army National Military Cemeteries will not include partisan political activities."
what won't you excuse?Another group that is getting fired should Trump win, right after the top brass at the National Archives.
To date, the National Archive nor the FBI have disclosed any information held by Trump in Florida that would warrant an FBI raid. If they do, I'll change my opinion, but at this point it appears overblown of which someone should be held accountable.what won't you excuse?
fair enough! h/t with respect to all that. Have a delightful Labor Day weekend and enjoy the game. Go Dawgs!So there you go, as objective as i can be about some of the Trump issues / items.
They're just frustrated. Their side just installed the worst duo in history and they know it. The DNC bounce has ended. Labor Day is upon us and the campaign begins in earnest next week. Their side is already behind and it's going to get worse and they know it.To date, the National Archive nor the FBI have disclosed any information held by Trump in Florida that would warrant an FBI raid. If they do, I'll change my opinion, but at this point it appears overblown of which someone should be held accountable.
Same with the issue in Washington Cemetary. If Gold Star Families request, you to come to Cemetary for a ceremony and take some pictures, absolutely you go. Harris and Biden and their military poor planning contributed to the death of their family members. They have right to be angry and thus they are supporting Trump. Pentagon brass didn't like it being rubbed in their noses so they ran to the media.
If Trump hadn't had the fake electors and J6 he would win by a landslide. The fake electors are 100% on Trump and at some point he might be held accountable. J6 is a Trump / Pelosi deal and both should be held accountable. The fake electors is what galls me, there was most likely some fraud beyond acceptable levels, but if you can't prove it you have to accept your loss and move on. You don't create a constitutional crisis without all your ducks in a row and he didn't have it. I'm fairly sure that is exactly what Pense told Trump, he should have taken his advice.
So there you go, as objective as i can be about some of the Trump issues / items. He certainly has some, but not the Cemetary one and most likely not the Archive one.
Tom Cotton is a great Senator for us. Liberals dislike him for his conservative philosophy and hate him for his military background.Tom Cotton had a great response to the Arlington "issue" yesterday.
