Up is down: Polling inaccuracies this year.. again.. maybe.. or not

I don't know? Would it stand to reason that younger folks are being hit harder with some of the economy numbers we are seeing? Housing as a whole, pricing is up so younger folks can't hardly afford to rent let alone purchase? Fast food, really any eating out, seems to have sharply risen in costs? Groceries, despite some of the data, is definitely higher. Wouldn't it be typical that younger voters have a lower disposable income, so any increases would effort them greater than older more established people?

 

Yes, these younger voters probably see that inflation exists. But they are also probably smart enough to realize that electing a rapist to lower top-tier tax rates won't do anything to help them.

They also realize that, much more than anything Biden has done, a major factor in the inflation is the deficit-fueled fiscal stimulus from the Trump Administration. They understand that only a total moron would deficit spend to stimulate a strong and growing economy. So no, they probably DON'T want to vote for more of that.

 

Did you hear Trumps statement this morning on abortion? What I heard is, it is now and should remain a state's issue that any limits would be determined by the state via amendment to the state constitution. Essentially the people get to determine what and if any limits would apply.

 

You're assuming young people care more about that stuff than trans gender and pronoun issues or racism and abortion.

 

I would also add that if Trump is elected (G-d forbid) he could (and probably will) have his AG invoke the Comstock Act to prevent the the US Postal Service from shipping mifepristone and misoprostol, the two abortion drugs. Justices Alito and Thomas have already provided Trump with the blueprint and considering that a majority of abortions are drug-induced rather than surgical the election of the defeated indicted former president could have a significant impact on women's bodily autonomy.

 

He's lying. If elected and able, he will use the power of the government to enact Project 2025. There are lots of ways abortion rights can be scuttled even if legal by regulatory and legal threats.

 

I understand what you are saying, but I firmly believe the overwhelming vast majority of the people would like to see some level of limits. If the people get to decide that I'm not sure that would be as big of a loser as you may be thinking. I think it's only the fringe that really want no limits right up until birth as an option. I know the later term abortions are very few and far between, but I think it is just the extremes from both sides that either want total ban or total unfettered access. I believe what he is saying the people from each state gets to decide. I just don't see that as a big loser at the polls.

 

Well....... Having something to eat and somewhere to live might trump most of the younger, not the activists, but how many do they actually represent?

 

Glad we have so many here that can tell the future with such certainty.

The past is prologue. Trump is a tool of the billionaire class using the rubes to get their way.

After the 2017 tax cut, Trump said, "My rich friends are going to be so mad about this, believe me" as if they were getting screwed for the common man.

Just this week at MAL, he was bragging about all the tax money he saved his rich friends with that cut.

 

Well...I would definitively say I am not one of the rich guys, but my taxes were significantly lower than they are now.

 

The tax cuts for you and me were temporary. The ones for Elon and Exxon-Mobile were permanent.

 

Are you lib’s tin foil hats connected by RF transceivers?

 

Pretty weak.

I have faith in the American voter. Whether it’s what I like or not, they typically rectify their mistakes.
