lmao yeah, the succ is even stronger in the new thread

might as well crosspost this here:

New Mark Blyth interview from a couple of days ago.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVI1ZtgdXYI

Around 18 minutes in he's asked about the election if the corona crisis continues. tl;dw on that: he says that if Trump is right to reopen and there isn't a second wave, his supporters will be all like 'urgh, those elitist scientists, what the gently caress do THEY know, we went out and did poo poo and it was fine'. In this scenario, Trump will win again.

If, however, there's a surge in cases in the summer and it brings about a second wave and shuts everything down again, then they might be 'forced' to cancel the election.

'If we open up and things go well, Trump wins. If we open up and things go badly, I don't know if we even have an election.'

Also, while this was recorded before the riots, I don't think they are an example of 'things go[ing] badly', but I guess we can't really know that for sure until it's all over and the infection rates either spike or don't budge at all.

of course, the succdems replied to that by arguing that Trump is constitutionally unable to delay the election and it won't be delayed under any circumstances because :decorum:

someone in the UKMT bought me this Kezia Dugdale avatar sometime after the 2016 Scottish elections and I have no intention of changing it ever. Kezia might have been a neoliberal ghoul but she was also gay af and as a gay woman myself I feel that a lot

considering Trump nearly started a war this year and then didn't because he got bored and forgot, I think you're bang on about that

either the DNC realises that the white moderate will sit out the election and hand it to Trump if they do pick a black woman as running mate, or they're just a bunch of bloody idiots. Probably the latter

lmao, I slept instead of watching the debate and that sounds like the utter shitshow I expected

Trump will win again, because judging by the reception, that debate fired up his base and demotivated a lot of Biden's potential voters, and the next two debates will only do the same

meanwhile, Biden will do nothing to win over non-voters, and his base will be too demotivated to flip Florida or anything else in the south

utter loving shitshow
