These state GOP officials who think the election’s in the bag are looking worse and worse, at least according to Fox News:
The other states Fox News polled are equally discouraging for Trump and his supporters. In the previous post I suggested a 10 point victory for Biden (and Senator Smith, up for reelection after winning the 2018 special election by 10+ points against a credible opponent with a famous hockey name known state-wide) was not an unreasonable expectation this November.
I may have been a trifle conservative.
There’s still a lot of time for Biden to step in a hole, or for Trump to suddenly start doing his job. But given his propensity of hiring sycophants who are not qualified for their jobs – and that’s a large part of any President’s job description – I don’t expect President Trump to turn it around through sudden competency.
Instead, he’ll try to stir the pot, and I hope that America continues to be a place of smarter and smarter citizens. I hope and believe they’ve learned not to take President Trump at face value, but instead investigate, not to take right-wing media “facts” on faith without checks, and not to jump and run on command.
And keep holding our breath that Trump doesn’t do much more damage than he’s already accomplished.
