All of those riots are very counterproductive. All the riots are doing is helping Trump's cause. There are many other better ways to protest.

Daniel Prude: New York police used 'spit hood' on man who died of asphyxiation
Sept 3, 2020
An unarmed black man died in New York state after he was hooded by police and held face down to the road for two minutes, body camera footage shows.
Daniel Prude, 41, was suffering from mental health issues when police restrained him in March and put a "spit hood" on his head, designed to protect officers from a detainee's saliva.
He later died of asphyxiation but his story has only now been made public.
His death was two months before the killing of George Floyd.

A piece here on Democrats making 'unforced errors' which may serve to help re-elect Trump.....sigh.
1) Pelosi gets her hair done, in a salon, in SanFran on Monday. SF didn't allow Salons to re-open til Tuesday and then only for outdoor service. Pelosi was not wearing a mask. (Which would have been required for any indoor business)
2) NY Gov. Cuomo seemed to imply that Trump would not be safe if he walked the streets of NYC (the read implication that Trump is right and there is no lawfulness).
3) DC's Mayor allowed a report to come out which suggested possible relocation of the Jefferson Memorial and the Washington Monument. (these are actually Federal monuments and beyond DCs jurisdiction)

Trump just lost one major portion of his most reliable demographic: the military, war veterans who lost their friends in combat, and all their families.

In his heart, he doesn't care; the paramilitary's more his style, anyway.
And he (and his crowd) probably thinks likewise of Covid casualties.

First off. Stop panicking with every poll. There's still two months to go. Next, at least understand the polls and models you are using. Listen to the 538 podcast if you're going to cite them. They've consistently said that the reason they are giving Trump 30% is because they expect the race to tighten. If Biden had these poll numbers on Election Day, they'd give him a 90% shot. They got rid of the Nowcast specifically because people kept citing it wrong.
The election was always going to be close. Swing states are by definition close and poll tighter than the national average.
Can Trump win? Absolutely. Is it probable? No. But it is possible. And everyone should be prepared to deal with a second Trump term.

Trump never had them. I was on exchange during the 2016 and 2018 elections. He didn't really have a majority among my peers. And of those did, he'd probably lost half by 2018. The officer corps is more centrist than the ranks. But the ranks are also incredibly diverse in the US. They aren't immune to what is going on at home.

I could have told you the military wouldn't vote for Trump without seeing any polls.

Twitter and FB seem to be more worried about appeasing who they think will win with their social media policies than actually making policies to create a better online space.

The Zuck and the Dorsey are addicted to blood-stained Benjamins from naïve businesses.
