That would be cool

2018-05-25 18:57:34 UTC  

it may

2018-05-25 18:57:39 UTC  

Nope.

2018-05-25 18:57:42 UTC  

Why

2018-05-25 18:57:42 UTC  

Trends.

2018-05-25 18:57:49 UTC  

@ThatRightWingFish NJ going red would be so beautiful in a year that the left has designated for le blue wave

2018-05-25 18:57:49 UTC  

muh drendz

2018-05-25 18:57:51 UTC  

fuck off

2018-05-25 18:58:09 UTC  

Every time we see one poll that helps us, we get so happy, but all the other ones our response is "muh they're just polls"

2018-05-25 18:58:12 UTC  

Can't have it both ways

2018-05-25 18:58:15 UTC  

according to trends, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania were impossible to win

2018-05-25 18:58:18 UTC  

What?

2018-05-25 18:58:18 UTC  

we can

2018-05-25 18:58:19 UTC  

according to zak's trendz argument, we should have lost in 2010, 2014, and 2016

2018-05-25 18:58:19 UTC  

Polls are either reliable or they're not

2018-05-25 18:58:22 UTC  

Nope

2018-05-25 18:58:28 UTC  

Are you talking about you idiot

2018-05-25 18:58:32 UTC  

we can see what opportunities may arise

2018-05-25 18:58:35 UTC  

the rust belt states we're winnable@because of their economic makeup

2018-05-25 18:58:39 UTC  

while not giving up on lower results

2018-05-25 18:58:39 UTC  

....

2018-05-25 18:58:40 UTC  

Industrial states

2018-05-25 18:58:43 UTC  

we can have it both ways

2018-05-25 18:58:55 UTC  

Lost jobs too poor trade policy which trump ran on

2018-05-25 18:59:10 UTC  

But

2018-05-25 18:59:11 UTC  

But

2018-05-25 18:59:12 UTC  

No you can't ducking have t both ways, polls either apply or they dont

2018-05-25 18:59:14 UTC  

"Every time we see one poll that helps us, we get so happy, but all the other ones our response is "muh they're just polls""

no, when I see a poll that favors us, I argue that it shows that polls aren't supporting the left's narrative as much as they want. Polls favoring GOP are not to be trusted either

don't put words in our mouth

2018-05-25 18:59:28 UTC  

they do but we shouldn't shut down opportunities because of it

2018-05-25 18:59:35 UTC  

basically, if one subscribes to the idea that polls are super reliable, then they have to accept GOP favored polls as well

2018-05-25 18:59:36 UTC  

this has revealed a new opportunity to us

2018-05-25 18:59:51 UTC  

now, I don't view them as reliable, ergo I'm not "happy" when I see them come out in our favor

2018-05-25 19:00:25 UTC  

I don't rely on them at all, they're all bullshit, the only worthy polls I think are policy polls.

2018-05-25 19:00:42 UTC  

How are they all bullshit?

2018-05-25 19:00:50 UTC  

Historical evidence is much more reliable than polls

2018-05-25 19:01:12 UTC  

you want to hear some historical evidence

2018-05-25 19:01:15 UTC  

@ThatRightWingFish the vast majority of polls said that is was impossible for trump to carry PA WI and MI

2018-05-25 19:01:17 UTC  

let's pretend it's October, 2016

2018-05-25 19:01:38 UTC  

Ok

2018-05-25 19:02:04 UTC  

Why the hell is Trump campaigning in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania? A republican hasn't won there since 1992, the trends show Democrats winning them for decades.

2018-05-25 19:03:55 UTC  

As I said, it's because of the positions Trump ran on which allowed him to win there. The trend argument upholds itself, because the trend was a generic republican can't win those states because of the positions of the party.
