Best Friends posted:there’d be more covid aid, more subsidies for vaccination, and also dems would still be loudly pretending that they opposed trumps immigration policies and the destruction of the post office probably less people dead from COVID too just bc trump would probably get some element of his base to fall in line with taking the big, beautiful Trump vaccine.

Deadly Ham Sandwich posted:It was like that a few days ago. The tweet is an edit. Sam Wang, the 99% guy from Princeton, wasn't copying Silver's methodology. He may have wound up eating a bug, but near the big day, he was also speculating about how his model might be lowballing Trump's chances and even gave an interesting breakdown of why it was doing different things from Silver's. When you dig into why Silver's model was giving Trump a better chance, there were some things that played into it where he was more right (cross-correlation of polling error, iirc), and some where he essentially got the overall result right for the wrong reasons (underconfidence in calling states for Clinton that Clinton actually won). Like, he also gave Trump a better than one in six chance to win New Mexico, where Hilllary won by more than eight points. His model didn't actually perform much better than Wang's, even if the overall chance he gave Trump was higher. eviltastic has issued a correction as of 19:34 on Jun 30, 2022 |

Sydin posted:The Huff Post lady was literally all caps screaming at Nate over twitter days before the election for "doomsaying" with his election predictions. At the same time the prediction Huff Post had up on their site was no joke 100/0 Hillary/Trump. Yeah in terms of model performance, Huffpo's was so bad it actually wound up closer to "literally assume it turns out just like 2012, that's the model" than it did to most of the other prediction outfits.

It’s pretty simple. Democrats need to win more Senate seats while retaining the House. The “tightness” give Manchin an effective veto. Meanwhile can’t ignore state politics. Wisconsin’s Republican Supreme Court just sabotaged their Democratic governor.

WampaLord posted:It's also why any sort of response along the lines of "well, yeah, capitalism is a broken system that leads to broken outcomes like this one" is accused of being a conspiracy theorist because you need to PROVE to me that all the business people got together and decided that bad things should happen. "The Phoebus Cartel is just one of many examples of industry collusion working to make lives worse and products less efficient to maximize profit." "Oh, but that was a hundred years ago. Surely such things don't happen now..." "Well actually, if you look at the behavior of Disney, Amazon, and Microsoft, among others, you'll see a pattern of..." "Look, it's not everywhere all at once.

Happy Noodle Boy posted:https://twitter.com/mjs_dc/status/1542524612814053377?s=21&t=MbPnJppM7oyZTRS5fYohjQ "The defendant in this case wanted to murder six people whom he blamed for his divorce and for the loss of custody of his child. He hired and paid hitmen. And he told the hitmen to burn the six intended victims alive. So that he would have a good alibi, the defendant planned to be in Po-land when the murders occurred. It turned out, however, that the would-be hitmen were undercover law enforcement officers. So the defendant was arrested and federally charged with murder for hire and a firearms violation. The United States then negotiated a plea deal with the defendant. The plea agreement was unconditional. Among other things, the defendant waived any right to challenge his murder-for-hire and firearms convictions. Consistent with that plea agreement, the defendant was sentenced to almost 18 years of imprisonment." Strong "rich republican whose friends can pay for a drunken judge debts" vibes from that guy.

Listening to these Jan 6th highlights. Trump was fully supporting the people marching, armed, on the capitol? And was so desperate to be there leading them from the front that he assaulted people and fought with a secret service agent over control of a vehicle? Are they trying to make us all like the guy?

spacetoaster posted:Listening to these Jan 6th highlights. All of that depends on taking the worst possible reading of the situation which comes off as extremely dishonest the more convoluted it is and it doesn't translate to a slam dunk legal decision Trump was mad his crowd was small and told them to stop sending people away. "Everyone is getting turned away at the metal detectors? Remove them. They aren't going to hurt me." Becomes, in the liberal brain... "I do not have enough foot soldiers for my armed coup. I need the metal detectors removed so that all of the weaponry that never presented itself is smuggled through security. When i say they wont hurt me what I am implying is a direct knowledge and implicit desire for them to harm others with all of this weaponry" Some massive disappointment is coming when Mueller 2 wraps up.
