Nope, not their fault. I own up to the fact that I was thinking about loose nuts (on a ROPS device) and my brain didn't switch gears.

And I wouldn't put it pass him to not show up. He's a petulant child and if he were any other person you'd say the same. But he's the "leader" of your party so you'll continue to suck him off and ask for more.
I’m not saying the “not showing up” option isn’t plausible, but after 250 years of peaceful transfer of power, I dont’ think DT is the first one to lock himself in the Oval Office.
I don’t think so either. But then again - he keeps surprising me.

2018 CNN Exit poll surveyed 33% Republicans (a bad year for Republicans).

Most recent polls surveyed Trump v Biden:
Quinnipiac 24% Republicans.
ABC/Washington Post 24% Republicans.
NBC/Wall Street Journal 26% Republicans.

One of my classes was called “Games”. It’s where we learned a variety of activities like arts and crafts to wall ball in training for engaging various populations from kids to adults to the developmentally disabled and experienced playing them. Rigorous academic training I tell ya.

Something troubling/interesting is happening. And it's similar to what happened prior to the 2016 election.

In June, the most watched TV show in prime time was "Tucker Carlson Tonight." Note, not just most watched cable news show; or most watched cable show. Most watched. Period. Including network TV. And the second most watched show was Hannity.

This rating surge for Fox programs is similar to what happened in 2016. As the summer progressed, and advanced into fall, more viewers started tuning into FOX news shows. But even in 2016, the FOX shows were not beating out network prime time shows.

Of course, networks are now showing re-runs in prime time, so it is not the hottest time period for them. Still, I'm afraid that these remarkable ratings numbers speak to the potential of wider support for Trump than the polls seem to be capturing at the moment. This is not going to be a slam dunk for Biden.
