“Look at that face” - Trump

I’d say look at Trump’s current poll numbers:

National Poll (Ipsos/Reuters):

Biden 47%
Trump 37%
Third Party 8%

New York Times/Siena State Polls:

Florida:
Biden 47% (+6)
Trump 41%

Arizona:
Biden 48% (+7)
Trump 41%

North Carolina:
Biden 49% (+9)
Trump 40%

Pennsylvania:
Biden 50% (+10)
Trump 40%

Michigan:
Biden 47% (+11)
Trump 36%

Wisconsin:
Biden 49% (+11)
Trump 38%

Good – but did she tell Trump what she thinks of his appearance?

Nate has him at 55.2/40.6 Disapproval/Approval @7:37 AM
He had him at 50.7/43.4 Disapproval/Approval on 3 May 2020

7.3 gap raised to double at 14.6

The bad news (and I am referring to, as an example, the TPM story about the NC policemen) is that Trump is exacerbating racial hatred and will do so until he is removed from Office.

What about being a proud conservative? :lying_face::rofl:

Fiorina’s decision is not earth shattering, but might provide cover for some Repub women to rethink voting for Trump.

She specifically said no third party votes in a binary choice election. Blustering Bolton is wussing for a conservative write in candidate. Cruz still has his lips firmly locked on the monster’s butt.

Hell hath no fury, and all that.

Good for her for putting that aside and choosing to be a proud American instead.

I knew she was a RINO and a 4 tops.

As a Republican not holding elected office (and not subject to the kompromat that keeps the GOP members of Congress in line), Fiorina is free to publicly voice her misgivings. She’s got nothing to lose…and she gets to keep a shred of her dignity.

I’d ask her that – after she votes for Biden.

DO NOT BE COMPLACENT!

Remember this point in 2016 when Hillary had a double digit lead over Tang the Conqueror!

She could barely, obliquely, and hesitantly say that she was going to vote Biden because he’s the lesser evil. She’s not gonna lift a finger to get anyone else to join her. Furiosa, she is not.
