If the guy Barnes is right that the portion of US population that responds to surveys is down from 50% to 2%, I'd say that 2% is a helluva small sample from which to extrapolate any useful predictors of behavior of the individuals. I forget the exact jargon from statistics classes thirty years ago, but it strikes me that if you're missing 98% of a population you're not gaining any meaningful information from such a small subset, however large the "sample size." I'd be happy if you could point me to a claim (or "evidence") that more than 2% of US population presently are willing to reply to polling firms as Barnes claims.
I'd be happy if Tuttle would show any evidence of cognitive thought , or at least the ability to outwit a slime mold.
I don't mean to drag Castle back into this discussion, but it's important to be aware of what these fringe fucks are actually thinking. Just a little something I started over at TK recently. http://trollkingdom.net/threads/get-your-booty-to-the-polls.151004/
The True Believers are all atwitter (pun intended) because Dear Leader has supposedly invited former Hunter Biden associate Tony Bobulinski to be in the audience at tonight's debate. Not sure what the point is supposed to be. Is the sight of this guy supposed to make Biden crumble? Or is he just there as a service dog to keep Donnie-boy calm[ish]? Apparently the True Believers don't understand that the audience is required to remain silent during these debates. If this guy does show up, I hope the cameras are on him to watch for secret signals.
Okay, I tried. Made it through almost 40 minutes before I started yelling at the screen. "Mute the bastard! You said you'd mute him. WTF are you waiting for???" I'll catch the rest on replay.
Trump just referred to Kamala Harris as Joe Biden’s “Vice-President,” not his running mate. In his own mind, he’s already lost.
It's a placeholder to control the stutter. Couple of times I thought he might be in trouble, but he held it together. Okay, deep breath. Off to watch the rest of it...
He's having a bit of a problem tonight, but he's still doing well. And today is International Stuttering Awareness Day.
Missed opportunity: Biden should have pointed out that Walter Reed is the perfect example of socialized medicine and asked Donnie why every American couldn't have the treatment he had. Donnie's head would have exploded.
You want to know what started my path down single-payer lane? When I realized a homeless person in the UK has better access to healthcare than the majority of Americans. Let that one percolate a bit in the old noggin. Greatest country in the history of the world, right?
Want to get rid of them? Reply FUCK OFF. Within 10 seconds you'll get a final text. "You have been officially unsubscribed..."
Nah. I find it amusing to read them. I mean, what kind of idiot falls for, “Friend, President Trump asked me why your name wasn’t on the list of supporters.”?
