No they just watch too much CNN or Fox. It’s not surprising considering who said it.

10% is probably about right for those undecided in this election, maybe less. It's much higher for those who wish there were better options.

Frenzy has been rendered incapable of discussion.

Thank you for understanding a simple concept.

Guy literally doesn't know the difference between active voters and U.S citizens.

You're a professor?

Edit: Also doesn't know the difference between the word 'hate' and 'dislike'

The dude has about 1-10th the competence he's given credit for by conservatives in this thread.

Has to text his friends to understand the psychology of BLM.

The irony is he explained your COVID article written by that zoologist better than you did. You had to phone a friend cause you just post links you don’t even understand :facepalm:

I question his stance on Josh Rosen but when it comes to politics, he is probably the most though out poster in this thread and it has nothing to do with party alliance.

We're quickly crossing into "this isn't normal human behavior" territory. It's like a dark, bitter version of LoveItCards.

I don't think any of the normal people here need to see a rebuttal to someone upset over "voters -> Americans" when they immediately moved the goal posts from "voters -> active voters -> undecided voters."

It's like watching one of those funny YouTube videos where the little kid gets frustrated that their parents keeps guessing which cup the pea is hidden under—but the cups are clear.



It's really more cute than anything else. So I don't mind him following me around.

Probably for the best. I could probably hold the forum hostage by threatening to start a Mahomes PC.

For what it's worth I'm also pretty sure Biden is going to win, so.......

"An emotional bias is a distortion in cognition and decision making due to emotional factors. That is, a person will be usually inclined. to believe something that has a positive emotional effect, that gives a pleasant feeling, even if there is evidence to the contrary."

C'mon man, even Trump's biggest supporters have to realize that Trump's main goal in fast tracking a vaccine is more rooted in his election hopes than the actual well being of US citizens.

I can tell you right now, I'm not an anti-vaxer by any means, but there is almost 0% chance I'll be trying to get the first vaccine that is put out there, especially if it's in 2020.

Vaccines are supposed to take 18-24 months to properly create, test, and approve. I just can't see anyway I'd be comfortable taking one that was approved about 8 months after it began, as no American Vaccine was really started work on before March.

Sure, it may be safe and it may work, but that time frame just screams "rushed" to me and I'd rather wait a bit for more to be finished and approved and see what scientists recommend once there are multiple options out there.

Fauci said it's conceivable to have a vaccine by next month.

I can guarantee you unless you are in a vulnerable or exposed population, you will not be one of the first to get the possible vaccine.

The first wave will be high risk and high exposure populations. To give you a better idea, they haven’t even begun the process of approval to start trials for a vaccine for children.

I don’t think people understand or are being realistic about if, how and when a vaccine will be available and administered.

This wasn’t a dig at you specifically. I just think there is a ton of misunderstanding around the vaccine.
