I know it's ridiculous, but I so badly want Biden's town hall to get better ratings than Trump's. I just know it would drive him totally crazy. -- nm - pmb Oct 15, 09:12 4
- I had not planned to watch either but guess I will turn the tv to Biden. Do we know who is covering which? -- nm - 💀SPAWN💀 Oct 15, 09:13 3
  - NBC is doing 45's, which has caused them a shitstorm of negative press. -- nm - New, Better David Oct 15, 09:14
  - Trump is NBC, Biden ABC. -- nm - pmb Oct 15, 09:14 1
    - which will make it very hard for Biden to have higher ratings since NBC also includes MSNBC and CNBC. Oh! and Telemundo -- nm* - decline Oct 15, 09:18

        The link should take you directly down to the bottom of the page where all of the states are compared. -- nm - Qale Oct 15, 09:13 6
        
        Social distancing? -- nm - 💀SPAWN💀 Oct 15, 09:14 5

        What kind of data generated this? -- nm - 💀SPAWN💀 Oct 15, 09:16 3
        
        statistical data -- nm - decline Oct 15, 09:19
        
        Cell phone data. It’s not exact, of course. But it’s a pretty good indicator. -- nm - Qale Oct 15, 09:17 1

- I would dispute the characterization that "middle-class" people aren't "working-class". Otherwise, very true. - 🧹 Broom 🧹 Oct 15, 09:00 1
  - It’s a fairly standard distinction. -- nm - znoooooooo!!! Oct 15, 09:06

crash davis's link last night on the Hunter Biden story is all I needed. It sure looks like it's fabricated. - 🧹 Broom 🧹 Oct 15, 08:42 14
- So a computer that a blind guy is quite sure came from Hunter contains a Gmail exchange without any credible metadata that didn't happen in the - Marlowe Oct 15, 08:57 1
  - but it's from Rudy! -- nm - ty97 Oct 15, 09:20
- apparently they forgot you can check the metadata of an email and found it was made 4 months after the laptop was supposedly in for service - colin 👻💦🍆 Oct 15, 08:45 6
  - It's so poorly handled, I wonder if it's amateurs or if even those involved were duped. But then, shame on them. - 🧹 Broom 🧹 Oct 15, 08:56 5
    - i think they honestly don't care.. the people they want to believe it will take it and run, everybody else will fact check -- nm - colin 👻💦🍆 Oct 15, 09:20
    - I don’t buy the amateur theory at all. Rudy’s been digging at this for a while, so if he didn’t instigate this, he made the perfect mark. - znoooooooo!!! Oct 15, 09:11 2
      - Or he found nothing and fabricated the story to show he tried. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 15, 09:15 1
        
        Also entirely possible. -- nm - znoooooooo!!! Oct 15, 09:16
    - These are the same people who pedal Jacob Wohl’s bullshit time and time again. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 15, 09:07

  - Here's the one I ordered. I like that this company customizes based on length needed and type of wood. -- (link) - kelly Oct 15, 08:58 1
    - thank you. I got SM to sign off without telling him the price - Pippy's Brew Oct 15, 09:12
