I hate that this is the debate we’re having now

I also hate that I’m feeding into the NYT’s lazy and transparent attempt to undo their previous partisanship with new opposite partisanship like those two things cancel out and add up to journalism

But what the hell, if that’s where we’re at, this is a relevant data point about the landscape

    he’s losing right now

    He’s not. He’s in a statistical tie in the polls, even when looking at swing states. And that assumes the polls are accurate.

    Just yesterday I got a text message to “take a poll”. I’m not clicking on any link texted to me, so I won’t show up in any of those polls. Also, I don’t pick up any numbers that I don’t know. They’re 90% scams and the rest are wrong numbers.

    There’s no way for a pollster to get my opinion because they rely on methods from last century.

      I hope you’re right, but if the margin between the polls and election day is similar to how it was in 2016 and 2020 then Biden is about to get blown out.
