					<description><![CDATA[@Nonapod:&lt;i&gt;For one thing, if that were so it’s unlikely that the GOP would’ve won the house last November, even if it was just barely.&lt;/i&gt;

A House majority is much harder to deliver, because you&#039;d have to operate in so many Congressional districts simultaneously. You can&#039;t win District 1 by running up the vote total in District 2.

The Electoral College is much easier, because you just have to run up the Dem votes in a few Dem precincts in a few swing states, because all the state&#039;s votes count together.

&lt;i&gt;I do not believe it has yet reached a point were it could get an obviously deeply unpopular candidate elected &lt;/i&gt;

Unpopular is relative. Trump has his own unpopularity at this point, he&#039;s been in the public eye for years and already been President, but the media can suppress any other Republican nominee&#039;s popularity by 5 or 10 points, simply because most people only are going to hear about them after the primary when they have a giant target on their back.

But popularity only counts with the 50% of voters who bother to submit their own ballots. Thanks to the two-party kayfabe, that 50% is going to be split something like 25% - 25%. 20% - 30% is the outside of probable. Now the Dems get to harvest in that 50% that doesn&#039;t submit their own ballots, and so if the Dems get 5% - 20% of those people they win the election.

Repeat in the handful of swing states that didn&#039;t go for Trump but might, and that&#039;s the Electoral College.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I don&#039;t subscribe to the notion that the current Democrat party is omnipotent and able to get absolutely anybody elected beyond doubt. For one thing, if that were so it&#039;s unlikely that the GOP would&#039;ve won the house last November, even if it was just barely. 

While I believe that the Dem vote harvesting machine is extremely formidable, I do not believe it has yet reached a point were it could get an obviously deeply unpopular candidate elected as president with ease. That said, I currently don&#039;t believe that Kamala will be the (D) candidate anyway, I expect it&#039;ll be either Newsom or Biden versus Trump. And at this point I think Trump would probably lose against either one, although Trump vs Biden might be closer.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Trump has been improving Republicans&#039; share of the Black men&#039;s vote, but there&#039;s still a very long way to go.  Whatever the ethnicity, guys who sort of like Trump are less likely to vote than people who really hate Trump are.

Trump hatred may be even more of a motivator than hatred of other politicians.  According to one survey, 32% of the voters in the 2022 midterms saw their vote as a vote against Biden, and 28% saw their vote as a vote against Trump.  Biden was president and was responsible for a lousy economy, but almost as many people wanted to stick it to Trump.  If the economy doesn&#039;t collapse and voters are accustomed to the malaise that as become the new normal, look for that anti-Biden vote to stay within limits and the anti-Trump vote to rise.  

I doubt the disgust we may feel at Gavin Newsom will cut into Democrat tallies much either.  Ron DeSantis is not hated as deeply as Trump is, but what he&#039;s been going through is an indication that any Republican can be made into the Great Satan by the Democrats and the media.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[@Nonapod:&lt;i&gt; it certainly doesn’t make her look competent or electable &lt;/i&gt;

So? She is 100% electable. The ballots that will determine the 2024 Presidential election will be Democratic ballots harvested from people who may not know or care even who Kamala Harris is, much less if she&#039;s performing. That&#039;s how ballot harvesting works. It means sweet F. A. how the candidates look or perform. It isn&#039;t 1980 any more.

You know that 30% - 50% of voters who sit out every election? The Dems can collect Dem ballots from those people at will now.  That&#039;s how elections work now. The 50% who actually fill out and submit their own ballots can vote however they want, but the ballots that will push the Dems over the top will come from the 50% who don&#039;t bother and allow a Dem activist to submit their ballot for them.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Nonapod (11:01 am) said:

&quot;Of course Biden has done her no favors by assigning her tasks that she wasn’t allowed to actually solve, the most prominent example being the border crisis.&quot;

Harris has performed splendidly in regard to the border crisis.  She, along with the cabal that is really in control here, has seen to it that USA remains flooded with alien invaders.  She has accomplished exactly what she was tasked to do.

I am not trying to be cute.  I am serious.  It is all by design (and will continue to be).]]></description>
