This article is written monthly and read exclusively by people who agree with it. Not sure the purpose of it.

The CEO was just conspicuously spotted with one of these a couple weeks ago, looks like it was a marketing scheme as we suspected.

I'm just talking about the general concept of a wealthy benefactor being the reason X person a commenter doesn't like does anything or has any success. It's a mental crutch because people can't fathom large swaths of Americans who just disagree with them, they need it to be a conspiracy for some reason.

This feels like the Leftist version of a George Soros conspiracy. Why can the answer not be that JD Vance himself thinks the election was stolen? Maybe JD Vance himself is weird?

Republicans control the House and even if they didn't, there is nothing close to a majority vote of the House that want to impeach members of SCOTUS.

It's a chance of winning, not a poll, so 64% is high but not insane. Silver is serious and it's a decent model. Knowing the model there's a pretty good chance this is a high point for Trump but it's not like he's pulling this out of nowhere, he has had similar models every election cycle since like 2008.

If it's overstaying Trump it's because his model is interpreting the data incorrectly because of the weirdness of this election cycle. I personally think that is likely the case here.

I suspect Harris got her "convention bounce" (as defined by the model) right when she became the nominee, this made the model think she was overperforming pre-convention and now the bounce is fading "early" when the model thinks she should still have it so it seems like she's underperformed.

If this is the theory, knowing how close the swing states are and thus how swingy it can be, most likely this number goes back to maybe 55/45 Trump.
