This is exactly what Trump is doing

Polls haven’t been accurate in a long time now. Election betting sites have said they are being manipulated. DJT stock price is being used as a way of showing “market acceptance of trump”. It’s all being gamed. It’s not conspiratorial at all.

None of the polls are based on reality anymore. They are all being gamed.

Iron Lung futures through the roof!!

yeah, it was poor choice of words. I fixed my initial comment.

I mistyped “filed” as “dropped”. He filed a lawsuit this morning:

The fact that trump filed a lawsuit in Pennsylvania this morning means he’s worried about winning the state. The more lawsuits he files, and the sooner he claims victory (in a state or the whole thing), the worse his numbers actually are.

The polls are being manipulated to shit, and are not based on any reality.

Sorry, I’ll see myself out.

Oh good addition!

I work for an organization likely to be directly targeted by Trump. I’m holding my breath right now for what that looks like. I’m lucky I live in a state that respects its population, so that’ll maybe blunt some impending problems.

I believe this too. The polls, election betting sites, DJT stock price, etc, are all being manipulated to hell and back. None of it is based on reality at all. The massive turnout of early voting is another good sign.

All campaigning for Harris

Holy crap, that is a legitimately amazing place! Well done by Mrs. Squid!!

P.S. Libraries rock and are true treasures

It is (I watched that exact site the last two cycles). It’s being manipulated to hell now since lots of people started paying attention to it. None of the betting sites are accurate (just like modern polls).

Lots of drugs can do that to a person

“Doctor” Oz

Lina Khan (in the US) is taking those first steps. Harris better keep her in place.

We just need to be more patient and tax-cut the wealthy even harder. Then it’ll properly start to trickle. Just a little longer
