Caltrops - We Love Katamari





	[quote name="Mysterio"]I'm keeping my eye on manhattani so the rest of you don't have to. [quote]Hey Bill, There are 19 bellwhether counties across the country that vote with the winner in every presidential election and Trump won 18 of them. It would seem that the odds against Trump losing the election legitimately are astronomical. Do you know what the odds would be, assuming the premise is true? Asked by: manhattanhi Answered: 12/1/2020 Yeah, I have heard that, too. If you assume it is random, then the odds might be fantastic. If you assume that there is a CAUSE for it, then it might not be improbable in the least. Trump, like Leo Durocher, adopts a policy of "I don't care if this offends you; I'm in charge here and you have to adjust." This is unique in American politics, so much so that it was assumed to be unacceptible until Trump won the 2016 election. All other American Presidents in my lifetime have tried to avoid offending people unnecessarily. Not necessarily defending them; if you can't tell the truth you become a phony. Hillary Clinton, to me, always seemed like she was phony to the bone. I thought every goddamned thing she said was a lie, although in the end I still had to vote for her, but I couldn't stand her. Trump's attitude was, "to hell with that; I'm going to say what I think and not be afraid of offending people." There is value in that attitude. There is merit in it, but Trump systematically offended many people on a wide range of issues. This destroys existing patterns of electoral support, allowing new ones to develop. It is not statistically improbable that you would get this result under those circumstances. [/quote] Imagine your guy losing by 6 million votes nationally and then clinging to 18 out of 19 "bellwhether" (sic, moron) counties and then just sputtering h-h-h-h-h-ow could Trump have l-l-l-ost?? His very first take - that they didn't all vote together but usually they do - means it is meaningless garbage, but you know what they say about bleach drinkers. I hate this guy and I want you to hate him too. Also, look at this and look at 2016 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_election_bellwether_counties_in_the_United_States how fucking dumb do you have to be to think there's anything there and the election was rigged?[/quote]
