Why is it 61 percent who believe that Biden was elected legally?

Just take a look at the bell curve, and the standard-deviation demarcations.

Only when we get past TWO STANDARD DEVIATION lines to the RIGHT, do we begin to see people in the US that can be considered half-way sane.

The bell curve is also called the Normal Curve, but anything to the LEFT of 2 lines of standard deviation is non-normal in the USA.

 

 

This means that only 2.1 percent of Americans are not superstitious.

When will this change, and when will Americans become atheists and skeptics?

IDK.

But, until Americans become skeptics, or absolute atheists, (none of this agnostic-cop-out please), I refuse to take the other 97.9 percent seriously.

 

By the way, the 68.2 percent, within one SD of the Mean, are truly WACKO!

Why?

Because this is the huge Group of Americans who have bought into the American Dream without first doing any due diligence or evaluation.

 

BE SKEPTICS People!

You have a better chance of being the democratic nominee than she does.

You might run.

She definitely will not.

Get a grip. 

The Dems are panicking about the Senate. They really need to avoid a blowout year. 55 - 45 GOP is not out of the question and when it gets to that level the GOP awkward squad lose a lot of power. The current Senate map is looking poor for the Dems and with Menendez being convicted on corruption charges even his seat comes into play - normally a shoo in for the Dems - as he is talking about standing as an independent. The Dems really could do without him splitting the vote and losing a blue seat to the GOP for at least six years.

Not just the senate but the house too which the democratic party should be able to take back with a strong presidential ticket.

I don’t see any inkling that the left are going to change their game plan. Until they all go in for cranialrectomtomy  surgery they will continue to self implode.

To be fair, and I don't like being fair to you, the Dems did pull a rabbit out the bag in 2020 when the field capitulated and anointed Biden. They may pull a similar trick this time, who knows? The one thing they should avoid doing is putting the Supreme Court at the heart of the electoral strategy. IMO that was the issue that Trump rode to victory in 2016 as evangelicals lined up to ensure a pro-life GOP candidate filled that seat. 

 

This time round, AOC and her squad should be careful of riling up the Constitutionalist voting bloc. Plenty of middle-of-the-road Americans won't be impressed by a court packing strategy. However, it's all just talk and speculation, by this time next week Biden could be out and certainly by this time next month we'll know the lie of the land.

So is the Deep State:

 

Government workers are reportedly in a state of panic over the prospect of former President Donald Trump winning another term in office,

 

Bureaucrats up and down the federal hierarchy are concerned that a second Trump administration could cost them their jobs and put an end to liberal programs they worked to implement under President Joe Biden,

I think government workers are fairly well protected.  But for the political appointees, they can’t just be fired.  To be sure, Trump could try to eliminate entire agencies, so there could be some layoffs.  Anyway, it’s probably not fair to describe the workers as being in a “state of panic.”  
 

If anyone should be panicking, it probably all the defense industry lobbyists.

As of this morning Biden's campaign has stated there aren't considering abandoning the campaign. AOC was on tv saying Joe is still their best chance. So what if Obama wants him gone? He hates Obama anyway he also hates Kamala or at least his wife doesn't. They can't remove him and he doesn't seem to have any reason to listen to them, they are the elites trying to push him out.

 

They pissed Joe off with the malarkey and now it is a matter of principle for him. If he doesn't exit in the next day or so and as he has said he is looking forward to getting back on the trail he will be the nominee.

Vivek talked about that quite a bit during his primary run.  Civil service laws protect workers from being singled out, but that doesn't help them if entire agencies get cancelled.

Of course they do, same as the Republicans dread a Democrat victory. It's up to the electorate, no party has the god-given right to power.

Trump Won’t Win

I cannot believe that Trump will come close to winning and surely, I don't believe the stupid polls. Use your logic. Biden is going to win by a landslide for several reasons. 1. Every local state and re-do federal elections put Democrats over Republicans by a large margin since 2020. 2. The American women are pissed about Roe vs Wade and are going to come out in abundance for Biden. 3. Ignore the bull<deleted> about the black vote. Eighty-one % of black men are registered Democratic and their black girlfriends, and relatives are going to drag the men to the polls by Their "you know what". 4. The Latinos are also going to come out in droves since the Hump wants to incarcerate and deport their relatives. 5. Don't forget the gay vote. 6. How about all the student loan forgiveness especially in the battleground states. 7. The armed forces and their relatives won’t vote for the coward. 8. The students whose student death he got rid of will vote for Biden. 9. Seventy-three % of CEOS that deal internationally have expressed deep concern. 10. Project 2025 is a blueprint to replace the constitution with a Christian Nationalist government and the majority of people will not go for it. So, that leaves the Evilgelicals, some of whom will not vote for a convicted felon, and the rest are just part of the cult and the illiterate <deleted> Christian White supremacist. NOT ENOUGH!!!!

New old  agencies under Trump

Trump cabinet heads will be chosen according to the mission involved

Deportation DHS secretary and a 

Homeland Drill baby drill Energy Secretary .

Just a footnote from history ... it has been 20 years since a Republican Presidential nominee has won the popular vote in the USA. PBS Newshour cited poll says 81% of registered US citizens say they plan to vote in November. Hope so, one that would be a terrific turnout and will be a definite voice whether the USA will turn to authoritarianism in frustration/anger within the working middle class. I maintain a small hope for this turnout because the majority of US voters lean toward the policies of the Democrat Party ... anti "Project 2025" stated policy proposals.

I was thinking more along the lines of the Presidential Commission on Increasing Equity in Pan American Turd Polishing.

 

Which, if it did exist, would have a budget of $ millions and a very diverse staff of thousands, all with piercings in exactly the same body parts.
