Without evidence, the Republican vice presidential candidate tried to cast doubt on his opponent’s obvious momentum: “If you talk to insiders in the Kamala Harris campaign, they’re very worried about where they are”
You’ve heard Donald Trump cry “fakenews” too many times to count, and now his running mate is claiming — without evidence — that the media is using “fake polls” to show Vice President Kamala Harris is in the lead in the presidential race.
In an interview on Fox News Sunday, Sen. J.D. Vance alleged that “The media uses fake polls to drive down Republican turnout and to create dissension and conflict with Republican voters.”
So what I’m not understanding, is what happens when they aren’t elected and they remain unable to do basic math.
They seem to really putting all their eggs into the basket of “numbers are fake, do our bidding” but somehow fail to realize without the numbers they won’t have support?
Like they really think they have enough weird dudes with too many guns to out gun and out fight the military that is currently under Biden’s control?
Also, have they accounted for the fact that the number of armed crazies gets even smaller when the crazies realize they don’t get paid for fighting?
Like they really think they have enough weird dudes with too many guns to out gun and out fight the military that is currently under Biden’s control?
That is debatable. Yes, Biden is the CiC. But assuming that the military–which skews conservative (and enlisted people skew very conservative)–is going to follow orders across the board if there’s a genuine civil war is perhaps a bit naive. The US Civil war saw a number of generals and higher-level officers defect to the CAS, and I would expect that we’d see the same kind of thing now.
My point is, it needs to be an undeniable win for Dems, something so overwhelming that there can’t be any reasonable questions.
The military is more liberal than you think. Yeah their area shit heads in every org and a 18 year old private is always going to be stupid and buy that charger and say stupid shit. But the NCO rank and file are not the same old guard from the 80s and the army is making changes to appeal to GenZ to help with recruitment. E.G base name changes and leave requests for family planning, etc. But also Vets that have been down range got to know groups liked the Kurds and are very pissed what Trump did to them.
While I would hope so, I’ve known more than a few vets. A few are fairly moderate to liberal, but a whole bunch are MAGAts. Maybe that’s just because I do as many 2-gun competitions as I can, and the MAGAt vet-bros are self-selecting to be there because they didn’t do enough run-and-gun when they were in the military, IDK.
