I just reply with one URL, and I don't even bother to add any kind of commentary to my reply.
I just send them this link. Nothing more needs to be said.

(12,265 posts)I have one friend who is an architect and teaches at a local college who is crazy nuts about Trump but I think it is racially motivated. He was never fond of people who were "different". He is a true Oklahoma boy, born and raised in the sticks. Even he has stopped talking about Trump non-stop.

Martin Eden
(12,880 posts)For me, I'll either do that or make a logical argument backed up by something more substantial in the realm of ideas, than a poll.
Republicans have won the White House numerous times during my life, and that wasn't the final word as far as I was concerned. I continued to make the case why the R was a bad choice.
But, to each his own. Didn't mean to intrude (I can be a bit of a buttinski).

(13,029 posts)That no one can get 0.4 electoral votes. Ever. Period.
Reporting it that way just makes them look silly, no matter what "statistical methods" they're using.

They keep claiming that the PC socialist lefty media and polling firms are over sampling Democrats. They can NOT even entertain the fact that America has more Democrats than Republicans, by a lot. They also can't handle the demographic shifts that have occurred in recent years that have made previously red states more competitive.
What should really bother them is the extra high turnout among Dems during presidential years is going to have wonderful effects on Senate and House races too. Many gerrymandered districts have become competitive.
Ooh yeah baby. And cannabis legalization is on the ballot in 8 states this year
With gay marriage legal in all 50 states now, our wild eyed liberal agenda is progressing rapidly.
The best part is they still just cannot believe what sort of people are Americans these days. Many perceived "immigrants" are actually natural born US citizens who vote!
