Without McConnell and the senate we would probably be headed for Venezuela status now especially in light of all the crooked shenanigans that so brazenly went on to steal the election for Biden.

We finally will have a “president” that the word Illegitimate actually is appropriate as a description.

So with GA, PA and Possibly AZ goin Biden… how wrong were the polls really?

I distinguish between pollsters and those who report those polls.
News organizations screw things up any time numbers or science are involved. (Remember when “Pluto is not a planet” was reported as big important science news.) Their eagerness to average percentages (rather than going back to the raw data) is only one example. I blame the innumeracy of the news writers (and of society in general).

(I still haven’t figured out why or how poll results are supposed to influence my vote and why they are considered important. London election bookies might be interested in pre-election poll results, but voters ???)

Nowhere close to the margin the polls were predicting. For example, 538 had Michigan for Biden by +7.9, PA by 4.7 and Nevada by 5.3. So yeah, still wrong.

Ya right :joy:

Acceptance…its the final step. Too soon?

To much CNN and NBC, Bro.

Nah…i don’t partake in cable news. It’s all a joke.

Cable CNN, :joy::joy::joy::joy:

CNN MSNBC FOX. it’s why I see clearly… I’m not getting talking points from either side. You should try it. It was the most liberating feeling.

You are funny. I am glad both of us have a sense of humor.

Not sure what’s funny. I hate cable news. Why is that funny

Come on, Man. (I am glad we both have a sense of humor)

I am too…i was being intentionally obtuse…just funning with you.

I figured you were. Everything is cool. Ready to put the former administration in the rear view mirror, and, step on the gas. It is what it is. We shall see how the country gets shaped.

If I’m honest my friend…i have no idea. I do know…i will be up front on calling out Biden if he doesn’t do a good job.

I hope you will hold him to your high standards. We can agree to agree. I supported Obamanation for several months till I could not put up with him. I will continue to support and defend and that includes the President of the United States. I take my oath seriously. And can support the new president until such time it is obvious he or she is not up to it.

Like you I love my country and I can function well even when I roll.my eyes at dumb ■■■■■■ God knows I rolled my eyes at some of Trump’s comments. But for the most part I agreed With him.

Pluto is a planet. And Goofy may be President. Kamaalaa was right about Joe before he got the nomination.

Bos’un

NPR had a really interesting segment on this the other day. Right now they’re working on getting the exact results from all this so they can pour over the results to try to figure out what went wrong. Again. I know some don’t want to trust polls anymore, but they get it right WAY more often then wrong.

There’s several theories they’re looking at. Maybe Republicans were underrepresented in the polls. Maybe there really were the reluctant Trump supporters that didn’t want to admit their support. Or maybe when it comes to Trump there’s just something about him that makes it impossible for polls to be accurate.

Or maybe, there was a glitch in the software used to count the votes. Give me a break. Defund NPR. But now that will not happen. NPR + New People’s Revolution. When are charges going to be filed against President Trump? How it the liberal dimocrat black list coming?
