    I'm not a Trump supporter, so it was sarcasm. The "you see" was supposed to be a tipoff.

    But I was serious about there being no source that everyone considers authoritative.

      It's what he's done that is authoritative. Anybody who has watched his behaviour for the last four years and still supports him is, indeed, deplorable.

        Most of his behavior is subject to interpretation, and his supporters tend to believe the most favorable interpretation.

          I don't believe it is. Hitler had supporters, too. THat is not to say that Trump is Hitler or Hitler-like, but rather to point out that supporters will 'interpret' acts favourably even when those acts aren't subject to interpretation.

            Yeah it does. He certainly is, and there's video evidence to prove his little kid sniffing and grabbing habits. And yeah, it really does.

                No, it doesn't, there is no evidence that shows him to be a pedophile and no, it doesn't.

                      • The polls from the last 3 days have all contained bad news for Trump. Post debate polls have not yet been released, so the impact of the debate (whether positive or negative for Trump) has not yet registered.

                        The best path to victory for Trump will give him exactly 270 electoral college votes, which is the slimmest possible victory. To win, Trump must win all of the following:

                        +7 Biden - Wisconsin
                        +7 Biden - Nebraska District Two
                        +4 Biden - Arizona
                        +3 Biden - Maine District Two
                        +2 Biden - North Carolina
                        +2 Biden - Ohio
                        +2 Biden - Florida
                        +1 Biden - Georgia

                        EVEN - Iowa
                        +2 Trump - Texas
                        "My favorite color in the alphabet is three." - Donald J. Trump
                        "The 'J' in my middle name stands for 'Jenius'" - Donald J. Trump

                          I'm not in them, moron. Your rabid desire to paint me with Biden's malady is quite amusing, and shows just what a colossal hypocrite you really are... not that we needed any further evidence.

                              Interesting to note that Gallup, who is responsible for some of the polls showing Biden in the lead virtually anywhere, asks a question at the end of the summer during every presidential election. That is who do you think is going to get the most votes. Not who do you like or are going to vote for but who do you think will win. So far, since they started asking it a couple decades ago or so, it has always been correct.

                              Well the same people who say they're voting overwhelmingly for Biden also say Trump is going to win. And not just win but win in a blowout. Something like by 10 points.

                              Personally, just like I don't put any stock in these polls[1], but then I don't think that if Trump wins that it'll be any sort of blowout by any means.



                              1. Given the number of studies disclosing that conservatives are not responding truthfully for fear of being physically attacked or losing their job (CATO found that 74% of conservatives admit lying about their political beliefs)

                              I'm always still in trouble again

                                You say that, for every voter who says they will vote for Trump, there are three Trump voters who lie and say they support Biden.

                                The statistics for the latest "average of all polls" are:

                                50.6% - Biden
                                43.0% - Trump
                                6.4% - undecided
                                ---------
                                100% TOTAL VOTE


                                So, if we multiple the Trump vote by 4, we get the following corrected poll:

                                -78.4% - Biden
                                172.0% - Trump
                                6.4% - undecided
                                ---------
                                100% TOTAL VOTE


                                Correct?

                                Here in Canada, it is impossible for a candidate to receive a negative number of votes in an election. Can you explain how it is possible, in US elections, for a candidate to receive negative votes?
