He's back! Nothing can stop him now. Avenatti for President! https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...emporary-release-federal-prison-COVID-19.html BTW yes yes yes the prison system is entirely fucked up. Geez.
Avenatti's bond was posted by Hubert Bromma, who wrote a book titled 'How to Invest in Offshore Real Estate and Pay Little or No Taxes.'
It was a Democrat Party blood bath during the Obama years. These midterm elections are meaningless in terms of predicting if Trump will get re-elected. https://www.quorum.us/data-driven-i...r-largest-loss-in-power-since-eisenhower/291/
Dems lost by 5 million votes in 2010.Gop lost by 10 million votes in 2018 In what may or may not be a coincidence,Obama got 5 million fewer votes in 2012 than he did in 2008,the exact amount of votes Dems lost by in 2010.So Obama did do worse in 2012 after losing 2010. What happens if Trump gets the same amount of fewer votes in 2020 as republicans lost by in 2018? Or even half that? Obama could afford to get 5 million fewer votes in his re-election,can Trump afford to get 5 or 10 million fewer votes?
Biden winning with Sr's who are normally reliable republican voters. Old Folks Like Biden, and That Could Really Matter in November By Ed Kilgore There is an understandable tendency right now to throw all the evidence of what might happen in the November election right out the window, given all we don’t know about the duration and intensity of the coronavirus pandemic, not to mention its impact on voting. And it’s undoubtedly true that how Donald Trump is perceived as handling the situation is a variable that could tilt the outcome far in one direction or the other. On the other hand, perceptions of Trump, even in this incredibly unexpected environment, seem to be relatively inelastic. His job-approval ratings, which benefited from a small “rallying effect” early in the pandemic, are settling back down into their accustomed narrow range. So while recognizing weird things could still happen, it’s not a bad idea to keep an eye on general-election polling. And one thing that stands out when you look at head-to-head matchups between Trump and Joe Biden is that the older of these septuagenarians has a pretty steady lead among seniors, the most pro-Republican of age demographics in recent presidential contests, and also the group most likely to turn out. Biden’s strong support among seniors is pretty consistent in recent surveys. He led Trump among over-65 voters by 15 points (57-42) in the most recent ABC–Washington Post national poll, in which Biden’s overall lead was just two points (49-47). Old folks preferred him 55-42 in an early April CNN poll (he led overall 53-42) and by 54-41 in an early April Quinnipiac survey (his overall lead was 49-41). The one notable outlier is an Ann Selzer poll for Grinnell College in late March that shows Trump leading Biden among over-65 likely voters 49-46 (he leads overall 47-43). But even that performance by Biden is impressive in recent historical terms: Democrats haven’t carried the senior vote in a presidential election (according to exit polls) since 1996. Bush won this group by 52-46 in 2000 and by 52-47 in 2004; McCain won seniors 53-45 in 2008; Romney won them 56-44 in 2012; and Trump won them 52-45 in 2016.
James Carville predicts 'Democratic wipeout' in November after Trump's coronavirus response Democratic strategist James Carville predicted on Wednesday that Democrats would easily achieve victory in November because of the way President Trump handled the coronavirus pandemic. "I am totally, totally unimpressed by President Trump's political powers. I have absolutely no fear ... if we go to post in November with anything close to a level playing field, it's going to be a Democratic wipeout. People are not going to vote for four more years of this," he said in an interview with MSNBC, adding that Trump's approval ratings are low given that a national crisis is unfolding. “First of all, he won with 46.1 percent. He’s literally lost 95 percent of the elections that have taken place between the time of his election and right now. His polling numbers are going down, and they’re awful. Usually, in a crisis – I mean, Jimmy Carter was at 67 percent in the Iran hostage crisis. The prime minister of Italy is over 70 percent. I’ll bet you 30 governors in the United States are over 70 percent," Carville pointed out. MSNBC anchor Brian Williams had asked about the political implications of the president's response, which has faced repeated criticism from Democrats and left-leaning media figures. Williams also asked former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele if Trump's base would stick with him through the virus. "This virus doesn't recognize red or blue. It doesn't respect state lines, it doesn't respect states that have stay-at-home orders versus those who don't. How does this affect the Donald Trump base and is it going to be enough for his base to hear him say the World Health Organization made the wrong call?" Steele said that messaging would work with Trump's base. "Every week, there's a new villain that can be propped up to go after and to castigate for the shortcomings and the problems and the failures that are in the narrative this particular week," Steele said. After the commercial break, Carville said that he felt sorry for Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., who recently announced he would suspend his presidential campaign. "As you're pretty aware of, I was not a fan of Sen. Sanders' candidacy -- I was not for him," Carville told Williams. "However, every political professional, I mean, they have dreams. I mean he ran and he and his wife had a dream ... and I kind of feel sorry for him in a way." Carville previously warned that Sanders would be a disaster for Democrats' electoral prospects, prompting a public spat between the two.
