I remember very clearly back then reading a post from you saying that Trump would not win, and that his run would merely be an unfortunate footnote in history.

In reality? Magical thinking. The Trumper's secret weapon. Maybe it's 42.

Oh, that won't stop them. If Trump supporters could listen to logic, there would simply be no Trump supporters to begin with.

Minnesota is not a battleground. Biden has been polling in double digits there. Out of the 4, only Pennsylvania has been close enough in polling to suggest it won't be as easy a Biden win, but recent polls have been much better.

Biden doesn't actually need all 4 to win, especially if he takes Arizona.

So dumb. Pollsters take into account potential dishonesty in the responses, and are included in the margin of error. You aren't changing anything and just wasted someone's time.
