Saturday News Roundup: Trump has Voter Enthusiasm, Biden Doesn’t
DB Daily Update ^ | David Blackmon

Posted on 10/10/2020 5:58:45 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

That time NPR lied to you, part 6,292,593. – The taxpayer-funded hacks at NPR spent all morning Friday claiming that President Trump was hoarse, congested and having difficulty breathing due to his bout with the China virus, all based, of course, on unnamed “sources” within the White House.

So, what does the President do? He goes to the Center for Excellence in Broadcasting and conducts Rush Limbaugh’s program for two solid hours without commercial interruption. Folks, I do radio two-three times every week, and even co-host an hour-long program. I am marveled by Limbaugh’s ability to do three hours of it each and every weekday, and can assure you that doing two solid hours of uninterrupted radio, even with Rush there asking the questions, is an extraordinarily difficult thing.

Thus, NPR is yet again revealed as the starkly anti-American operation that it truly is. Ronald Reagan was the first Republican president who tried to de-fund NPR and its socialist sister, PBS. The fact that both remain funded by taxpayer money all these years later is a testimony to how deeply-rooted the DC Swamp truly is.

You can watch the event – listened to by an estimated 50 million individuals – and read a transcript of it at this link.

Click to find out more about a new promotion Don’t miss this content from our sponsor Hey, somebody left the gate to the asylum open. – Of all of the absurd and just plain old stupid media figures you hoped to never hear from again, the serially-fired Keith Olbermann had to be at the top of list, right up there with Dan Rather and Carl Bernstein. Am I right? You bet I am.

Well, sorry, but someone let the former ESPN/MSNBC, etc. lunatic out of the psyche ward this week, and this literally insane, self-produced video surfaced yesterday:

Don’t you just love how this self-promoting hack who has been unceremoniously run off by every employer he has ever had because he is quite literally crazy still pretends to be a newsman? This guy actually once implied he believes he is the reincarnation of Edward R. Murrow, who just spun over in his grave again when I typed that.

Sorry about that, Ed.

Speaking of leaving the gate open, how about the one over at the South forty? – Here is the sad pack of heifers – glorified by CBS News as “Republican strategists” whatever that means – that leads the #NeverTrump “Lincoln Project” which has been funding heinously false attack ads against the President during this campaign:

Oh, they’re mounting a “rogue offensive” are they?

*sigh*

The truth is that Trump has absolutely driven these people stark, raving mad for the simple fact that they’re nothing but a bunch of insignificant, tiny-minded, turf-protecting DC Swamp rats. If the media is down to glorifying this bunch of never-were’s, they are well and truly running low on ammo.

Cool.

Why the enthusiasm gap matters. – A new poll from Hill/HarrisX finds that young voters are disproportionately less likely to vote than any other age group.

From an article at The Hill:

On today’s What America’s Thinking, a new Hill-HarrisX poll finds President Trump trailing Joe Biden by 5 percentage points, a 2 percentage point drop from the post-debate polling. Hill-HarrisX research finds younger voters are consistently more likely to say they do not plan to vote or are not sure who they will vote for.

Dan Cox, Public Opinion Research Fellow and Director of the Survey Center on American Life at the American Enterprise Institute, and Nazita Lajevardi, Assistant Professor of Political Science at Michigan State University, join Hill TV to discuss. This survey was conducted online within the United States from October 3-6 among 2,841 registered voters by HarrisX. The sampling margin of error of this poll is plus or minus 1.84 percentage points. The results reflect a nationally representative sample of registered voters.

[End]

This, combined with reports from early voting states of lower turnout among other traditionally-Democrat voter groups like Blacks and Hispanics, is a real problem for the Biden/Harris Harris/Biden ticket. Note also that this survey of “Registered voters” which admits that at least one key Democrat constitutency is less likely to vote, shows the President now within easy striking distance of Biden in terms of winning the popular vote.

So, how do the Democrats plan to change this around? They don’t. Instead, their plan is to manufacture the “votes” through ballot harvesting and other methods of voter fraud after Election Day.

It’s all as transparent as it could possibly be, and if we fail to see it and prevent it, we get what we deserve.

That is all.

Each ballot cast gets scored for enthusiasm. If you’re only 60% enthusiastic about your candidate your vote is multiplied by 0.60 and then added to the vote total.

The real question is how many states will Trump win which added
together get to the 270 total electoral college votes needed to win?
Nationwide popular vote doesn’t determine the winner per se.

Popular vote
Trump ...62,979,879 (46.1%)
Clinton..65,844,954 (48.2%)

Unenthusiastic people are less likely to vote period. That’s why it matters. You know this. Don’t be dumb just to try to be a contrarian.

And even if those unenthusiastic people vote, they don’t inspire anyone else to go. They don’t help spread the word for their candidate.

The Biden campaign has even less that the Hitlery campaign.

That’s really saying something but no one should take anything for granted.

Isn’t it about time to defund NPR? I have come to believe it is an organ of the deep state. NPR and PBS have pushed a leftist agenda for decades, and for decades conservatives have wanted NPR and PBS to stand on their own two feet without using our tax dollars to work against us. However, every time there is a Republican Congress (House & Senate) with a Republican President they get their funding increased. The entrenched deep state in the GOP will not do the simplest of things. Just how do we make any headway on cutting larger things in government if they can’t cut the small things that actively work against us.

The Dems are extremely enthusiastic.... to vote.

They’re not enthusiastic about their own candidate, but they are enthusiastic about voting against ours.

I think that’s always true any election. Suburban women especially loved Hillary.

The difference this time, is the enthusiasm on our side for the Republican candidate. There hasn’t been this much since Reagan.

Enthusiasm is more important than mere likelihood.

Oh gosh...I’ve gone out and purchased two ROKU TVs for Election Night! Already have one tv.

Now all I do on Election Day is vote and then watch returns on all my devices: the TVs, twitter, FreeRepublic

We better win it all

Not unlike us in 2012. How’d that work out? Also, it’s not about the true believers, they’ll vote no matter what. It’s about everyone else.
