i still have no feel for who, trump or biden, will win in november. the huge early vote by democrats does seem to favor them, however.
You can be nice and effective at the same time, lots of examples of that throughout history, all the way back to the Bible days. You can't beat conservatives complaining about how bad society is, and you have a problem with being nice.

Many people are coming to their senses and realizing just how bad Trump is for the nation. He can not be allowed to do more damage.

Oh really? The Dylan Roof shooting, Pulse nightclub shooting... that was during Obama's term.

The truth is the POTUS has very little influence on things like that. People have their own minds, and they are going to do what they're going to do, regardless of who's in the White House.

You're in the Pittsburgh area, right? Which suburb do you speak of? It must be Mt. Lebanon.

I wasn't nice when a private restaurant where my company had a membership wouldn't seat me, a female, without my male business client. I was my company's first female executive. I got things changed at that restaurant when i told my company what i experienced. I wasn't nice when i insisted my salary was much higher than a new male hire they were going to pay more than me and would report to me.

I never was nice in my career. I was very good at my job.

nice doesn't get things done, ipaper.

Or they don't know that the Democrats plan to do this. Isn't it curious that the Dems are so hush-hush about these sort of things? I haven't heard Joe Biden mention this policy in one of his 5,000,000 commercials. I wonder why?

Incidentally, none of Trump’s Fave 3 pollsters are showing much of outlier results this year, as all three (IBD/TIPP, Rasmussen, and USC) show Trump behind as other public surveys do.

What do you think are the reasons that American suburbs have soured on Trump?

HILARIOUS!

Trump has INCREASED support among women, blacks, and Hispanics relative to 2016.

Democrats win polls; Trump wins elections.

There are going to be "shocked" democrats on election night, as they have been fooled by liberal polls and the liberal media AGAIN.

Good catch!

What the pollster is doing, is taking the proportions of registered voters nationwide, then applying that to an area that is predominantly Red.

That is a flawed use of statistics, which makes this poll is rubbish.

If you want to poll suburbanites, poll JUST suburbanites, & don't overlay proportions that include heavy Blue urban areas...like LA, NYC, Chicago, Houston, Baltimore...ect..

Trump will win in suburbia...again. Trump will dominate rural America, and he'll lose the urban jungles, but not by as much as he did last time.
