when presented with each candidate's policies in a blind test.
The operative word here is blind. Had the respondents known whose policy positions they were, Harris would not have come out the favorite says a lot about people not voting their economic self interest.

Good! Demagogues need to be held responsible for their bad acts. The only entities that politicians should be able to bad mouth/defame are other politicians.

It's been reported that Rudy G has now lost his license to practice law in DC. That, and the huge monetary judgement against him, should serve as a wake-up call for Trump's other minions.

Robinson is only following the Trump playbook:

Deny, obfuscate, change the subject;
Deny, obfuscate, change the subject;
...
Deny, obfuscate, change the subject;

This makes so much sense! Also, it helps address the issue of backup power during times of prolonged periods of no sunshine or wind.

A brilliant, albeit an indiscriminate maneuver consistent with the lack of concern for the lives of noncombatants shown by the IDF in Gaza.

Trump has two fallbacks should he lose the election, an administrative coup more-0r-less like 2020, and a violent coup probably of greater extent than J6.

One part of me (the Mr. Hyde part) would like to see a violent coup attempt with a democrat in the White House. Federal troops would come down very heavy on any and all coup plotters and their foot soldiers.

The Dr. Jekyll part of me says that an administrative coup is the more likely scenario should Trump lose. His minions at the state and county level as well as their attorneys are likely to try to gum up the works. But the best that they will be able to achieve is to add more drama to the process. In the end, they will not be successful and Harris will be sworn in on Jan 20, 2025.

I predict a Harris win and it won't be close.

I think that it's insane to put driverless vehicles on the road; especially considering the current state of the technology, the ever changing condition of our roads and the unpredictability of many drivers.

And the worst part of this cognitive decline is that no one around him can say no! Just imagine the trouble that a demented president can get us into if his staff is afraid to say no!

For as long as I can remember, republicans have been spreading lies and engaging in dirty tricks (does the name Roger Stone ring a bell?). Back then, republicans in leadership knew better than to embrace the lie or fall for the dirty tricks. Trump has swallowed the lies "hook, line and sinker" and republicans that know better have little recourse other than to go along with the lies less they lose the votes of the Trump faithful. Sane republicans secretly want Harris to win in a landslide so that they will have the ammunition to finally put Trump and Trumpism in the rear view mirror.

NATO needs to get these "front line" countries the resources they need to thwart these kinds of "incursions". Otherwise, Russian stooges think that they can conduct invasions with impunity.

Gangsterism pure and simple.

This is an attempt to intimated election workers to give him the benefit of the doubt in any and all questionable situations.

Reagan stood at the Brandenburg Gate and said "Tear Down This Wall". That was most of his contribution.

Exactly! Every president since WW II put pressure on the Russian economy. That pressure created fissures in the Russian economy and society that led to the collapse of the wall. It just so happened that Reagan was president when the fissures became so large that the wall came tumbling down.
