    Our country? Nope. It has been a fraction of a segment of Republican voters.

    What’s showing up on this thread is what showed up in NH. He had a big drop in support from college educated conservatives.
    The question is, why hasn’t that shown up in the larger polls? What I would be worried about if I were one of the Trump pollsters is whether some of the good trump polls right now represent an intensity gap over the charges against trump that have his base fired up, and it will close when people see he has a real chance to win. Because if the intensity on both sides is equal, the Dems will win. The last three elections have proven that.

    It will be interesting and likely close. I think Biden will pick up some momentum when it sinks in that Biden and Trump are the choices and that’s not going to change.

    My concern about Biden is electoral college. I don’t see him losing swing states he won, like OH and FL. However if FL could get an abortion amendment on the ballot that could move things. I could easily see Biden losing states like AZ, GA or NV. Plus the third party votes will be a small drag against Biden.

    I'm really not concerned at all at this point. Pretty much all true conservatives and republicans will give Trump the vote over Biden even though they're saying they won't now. I the end they will

    Dude, you’re just too much sometimes. You are being disingenuous and you know it. You were obsessing over Trump during the campaign before the 2016 election, over the duration of his entire term, and every day since. Now you’re going to try to tell us that if he had just conceded that no one would be obsessing?

    Makes perfect sense to me.

    Same here, not voting for Trump (again) or Biden. Will probably write-in McConaughey, Maher, or Fetterman. Any of those three are better than DT or JB!!

    No, I've never thought you was a libbie and still don't. I just don't understand your logic

    Maybe Trump will adopt your new nickname. I'd put my elementary school daughters in time out if they acted like DT.

    So you have problem with the fact that I've been consistent with my criticism of Trump? He is the same guy that he's been the last eight years only he's become much more unhinged over time and if he is elected Trump will not make the same mistake (as he views it) that he did in 2017. Unlike during his first term in which he appointed officials who placed loyalty to the Constitution and the rule of law like James Mattis, John Kelly, Mark Esper and even Bill Barr in the end he will be absolutely certain to appoint individuals whose only loyalty is to the Orange Don. And if Trump had conceded there would have been no false elector scheme, no attempt to persuade state election officials to alter the results of the election and most significant no January 6 coup attempt, all of which were the direct consequences of Trump's refusal to accept defeat which by the way wasn't anything new although it was far more consequential than his previous refusals to face reality. Let's not forget that when he lost the Iowa caucuses to Ted Cruz in 2016 he claimed election fraud and even though he actually won the 2016 election through the Electoral College he claimed that he also won the popular vote and that it was stolen from him through massive fraud specifically voting by illegal aliens although even after an investigation there was never any proof that the fraud actually occurred.
