For washing your back side, right?
Dump had issues in Utah last time too. It's weird; don't use it as an example of anything but weirdness.
It's not weird. Mormons know he's a fraud, and they take his jabs at Romney personally as an attack on all of them. However, a majority of them still can't bring themselves to vote D because of the whole "religious freedumb" thing, which is a hot button issue for a faith group that used to be persecuted and are still regularly mocked.
I suspect many of them will stay home, or skip the POTUS section of the ballot.

Biden is on CNN (I would guess taped) and good god I am not big fan of his but he is destroying Trump over every aspect of the disease. Hell at one point he is talking about the mcaho bs and just goes "ya know what I shouldnt even get going" and it was more Presidential than anything Trump has said in his entire term.
Also isnt ducking being called out for the "You arent Black" comment.
He was great on Maher, too.
I guess you don't hold a Senate seat for a thousand years without learning something about how to be a politician.

It’s not always a good idea to take seriously, much less literally, many of Donald Trump’s Twitter rants. But his campaign against voting by mail is becoming more, not less, intense and shows every sign of becoming a major MAGA election-year message. His latest offering is so strident that it’s completely incompatible with any sort of attempt to spin, qualify, or walk back.
He’s misinformed and misinforming about Gavin Newsom, of course; the governor’s order sent ballots to registered voters, not “anyone living in the state.” And beyond that, a big majority of California voters (70 percent in the March 3 primary) are already getting mail ballots automatically as permanent vote-by-mail registrants. As for what he means by “professionals telling all of these people” how to vote, this is transparently a reference to the grand, if racist, conservative myth of minority voters being herded like cattle into the Democratic column via bribes or some other illicit method.
But beyond that, Trump is now regularly claiming that voting by mail is inherently illegitimate, except for grudging exceptions for people who can’t make it to the polls. So, presumably, states that allow for no-excuse voting by mail in November are holding “substantially fraudulent” elections. That’s 34 states who do so by law (including battleground states Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin), 11 more that so far are waiving excuse requirements this pandemic year (including New Hampshire), and another that may be forced to do so by a lawsuit (Texas).
So in a very real sense, unless Trump backs off his claims that voting by mail means a “rigged election,” he’s letting us know that he and his supporters will be justified in challenging any adverse results in states that allow this terrible practice to take place.
A group of 30 political scientists who recently met to look at scary post-election scenarios explained exactly how a vote-by-mail contest might play out, as Louis Jacobson noted at Cook Political Report:
Trump Is Laying the Groundwork to Contest the Results of the Election
The initiative, called Republican Voters Against Trump, has produced multiple ads featuring disaffected GOP voters who say they are not voting for Trump. Many of these testimonials are recorded on smartphones and include voters who have voted for Republican candidates, some of whom voted for Trump in 2016.
"I voted for Donald Trump in 2016, but I won't vote for him again," says Jay, a Pennsylvania voter who recorded one of nearly 100 videos featured on the project's website. Some of the testimonials will be featured in the ads.
"People need to see other people like themselves," said Sarah Longwell, a longtime conservative and Republican consultant who is the executive director of Defending Democracy Together, the nonprofit behind the effort. The New York Times first reported on the new ad campaign.\
Longwell told CNN the ads will initially target specific voters in the swing states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Florida, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Arizona, primarily through digital ads. Some television ads have also been produced and will air in those states.
I am sure the Times and CNN are interviewing the same 8 people they always do to ask if they will still vote for Trump to rebut this![]()
