I'm trying to figure out wtf was going on with the playlist: Ave Maria, James Brown, Guns 'n Roses, Cats, Elvis, YMCA, opera, Sinead O'Connor - I just don't get it.

He can phone it in all he likes, sundown whenever he needs to, and about half the voting population is still guaranteed to vote for him. joker-amerikkklap

Small percentages changes in turnout can still affect close elections like this. Things like this can absolutely affect dampen trump turnout or boost it on the opposite side

The last few months of clownfuckery from trump-moist didn't even move the needle among his supporters.

Polls averages don't capture turnout all that well. They kind of have to make assumptions about it to weight things. If they're off about it, election results csn end up being rather different

But what we can look at is voter enthusiasm polling which is down for trump. In 2020, polling suggested there was a voter enthusiasm gap favoring trump. Today it's flipped

The race is still far far closer than it should be but these things don't necessarily have zero effect either
