If even Cook is putting this one as competitive, I'm going to have to reevaluate some of my Senate thinking.

I didn't realize he'd stopped. I liked a little of his stuff during Bush II, and I watched some of his YouTube series but quickly lost interest and figured he was still just doing that.

I really think those stories about the Trump campaign being out of money are true

They seem to be retreating on ads in places like Ohio where Trump is not a sure winner

There’s nothing :tinfoil: about that. At the minimum you’d take two if the first one was positive just to confirm it. She probably took three because the first one was negative but she felt like poo poo and knew she was around people who tested positive. Also different tests have different certainties.

Taking three tests in one day would be pretty unusual.

Nope. I think it was a few months after Trump's inauguration, he said he was quitting. Then he went back to sports and dogs on Twitter.

Looking at it, I think it's safe to say taking over the YouTube front page for a while was the final big blast of campaign $$$.

Nope, and still zero public appearances outside of White House published videos since he became symptomatic.

Yeah, because Graham has had tough interviews on *check notes* Fox News.

Also this is complete bullshit, I've seen Harrison give interviews and made public appearances.

Graham and his campaign have nothing on him, so the only thing they can do is cry and wail that he's up to somehting

In this case, the scraps are what they want. If they can't get the liability shield, they want PPP/similarly fungible corporate money and a single direct payment before the election. It's why Mitch has been pushing for $1T since back before HEROES passed and why Meadows got tasked with babysitting in the first place.

They teamed up since Trump got out of the hospital to convince him that Pelosi and Mnuchin are in cahoots and lying to him so that he'd blow up negotiations and they could try the "clean extension" gambit that's served the so well over the past decade. Since Pelosi and Schumer have made clear that they've wised up to the bullshit, they're relying on this reset to let the right and center media paint the Dems as obstructionist and hope that the same dumbfucks who latched on to the :siren:OUTFLANKING:siren: narrative last time maintain that same gullibility.

Fakeedit: damnit shimrra.

I don't know much about biology so apologies if this is a stupid question; but why? My uneducated assumption would be that an active infection would be the time when you are most likely to show positive on an antibody test since the body is actively fighting the infection and making the things.

your immune system works on multiple levels, and the antibodies that show up in a serology test aren’t around in quantity for 1 - 3 weeks. so it can be positive, but there’s a definite lag time involved.
