The only reason the 90% approval exists is because the denominator has shrink so much. The GOP has lost 8% of its party membership this year. In contrast, Dems have gained 5%.
Brilliant. Thanks OF. A ray of hope. And damn, I need one, as I sit underneath the eighth straight day of orange and "hazardous" (400+ AQI) air.
We don't need a "ray of hope." This is Biden/Harris's to lose. They have a brobdingnagian comfortable lead, Trump stubs his toe and makes missteps repeatedly, and Trump has offended his solid supporters; e.g., college-educated women who are more interested in Biden now.
Book it. Trump loss in November. Return to normalcy, including appropriate treatment for CDC and preparation for risks like pandemics.
