Re: Charleroi, PA: Well done, tRump...residents several months ago thought very little about seeing non-white faces in their community now are "afraid to go downtown" because of "fear of crime", even though there isn't any out of the ordinary. Textbook case of scapegoating "the other" to gain a political advantage.
Here, heretofore unconcerned townsfolk, not overly exercised about "change", and usually lumped into the "low-information voter" demographic, have now been radicalized by a non-stop stream of racist vitriol by the tRump-Hillbilly campaign, and are succumbing to the "killers, rapists, and job-takers" tropes, to the acute detriment to the community as a whole.
This is MAGA-ism in practice, layered with a frosting of nativism and bullying, and Charleroi is but a microcosm of what tRump-Hillbilly are building for the country itself...we have been warned, yet again, and if these people in fact are elected, we only have ourselves to blame.
I'm starting to feel like I wish people weren't able to vote this early with the Trump breakng news on overdrive every single day. Something huge could happen next week (or tomorrow) and people will have already voted.
Early voting by party designation has so far greatly favored the Dems...these are committed voters, on both sides, who aren't dissuaded or persuaded by "October surprises" or the usual quotidian complement of good-news/bad news reports. They knew exactly who their candidates are, and voting accordingly.
The NYT/Siena Poll uses a polling construct entirely different from other polls and claims it's right and they're wrong. Like everything else that spews from the Nation's Finest Fishwrap, it's an outlier and should be given about as much credence as Rasmussen. This is even more the case since the NYT is fully pro-Trump now, as can be seen in the many articles going after Kamala Harris and the few articles not going after The Traitor From Castle Dracula - just look at the number of articles NOT done about his continuing contact with Vlad the Yard Punk.
Paraphrasing Cato the Elder: New York Times Delenda Est!
Oh that’s not true at all. The Senate confirms the cabinet. They confirm ambassadors. They confirm a great deal of White House staff. And most salient to Democrats, they confirm judges.
Thank you. We all like what we think of a "good news" for our point of view.
Sometimes it isn't that. Holding on together is some comfort.

I hope that continues to be the case.
Please note: WSJ does not allow you to read the links. I’ve subscribed from time to time. Their news is very good, but they’re stingy with it.

I'm not worried about senate. It has no real power anyway.
Oh that’s not true at all. The Senate confirms the cabinet. They confirm ambassadors. They confirm a great deal of White House staff. And most salient to Democrats, they confirm judges.
You really need to bone up on
what the senate does and "run fast" to your closest library to find out!
Omg. Confirms her cabinet and judges. She can’t do anything without the senate. You best don’t vote. You sound scary.
