today, we're going to talk about polls. but before we do, everybody take a deep fucking breath. remember "flooding the zone with shit"? that was one-man leper colony Steve Bannon's plan for how Trumpism wins. here's how it works: create information chaos. drown everyone in a sea of misinformation. put out dozens of stories a day, with each new one contradicting the last. confuse the shit out of people to the point where no one has any fucking clue which end is up. eventually, the public will give up, and check out. whatever, just make it stop. this year, wingnut pollsters have adopted Rotty Steve's strategy. they're flooding the zone with shit polls " polls that show Donny is winning, when he's not. the goal? to make you give up and stay home on election day. you're being gaslighted. don't you dare fall for it.

right now, there are sixty shit polls being promoted by Republican operatives.

The GOP knows from internal polling that Trump's in trouble, and that they have to shore him up. That's why they're flooding us with partisan polls-60 GOP leaning ones, all paid for by Republicans and dropped into the mix recently, all in the battleground states.

these fuckwads did this to us in 2022, remember? a red wave is coming, they warned us. it's going to be a fifty-megaton disaster for the Democrats! they showed us poll after poll that proved their point.

we all know how that worked out. here's a graphic that's been making the rounds. you've probably already seen it, so excuse me for being the ten thousandth person to shove in your face. this is the average of all reputable polls taken over the last two months. remove all the skewed, deliberately-misleading polls and the race hasn't changed.

yes, it's still infuriatingly close. it's fucking maddening that 46.1% of voters are totally fine with a fascist game show host in advanced cognitive decline running the country - but that's exactly why we have to remain motivated. we can't stay home in despair.

there are more of us than there are of them.

if we vote, we win.
