When 2024 was about R+1.5 this presents a near 10pt shift and puts Iowa/Alaska/Texas/Ohio Senate into the *something* happening zone
Generic Ballot:
Dems 50% - 42% GOP (+8) NBC News
Dems 49% - 41% GOP (+8) Strength In Numbers

This anti Waymo discourse assumes that human drivers are routinely held accountable for killing people with their cars, which is very much not the case.

One of the dumbest lies they have going is that "educated liberal big city folks" have someone never in their lives come across a conservative. I promise you we have cruel tacky assholes in Massachusetts and California and everywhere. Millions of them!
The educated liberal big city US folks outraged at Trump's renovation of Lincoln bathroom really need to scroll some Facebook of their less established relatives and friends to see what kind of aesthetic resonates with Trump's target audience.
us fancy big city libs with our books and cipherin' machines have lost touch with the common volk. I think we could all learn a thing or two from this salt of the earth Research Coordinator, his hands rough from years of research coordinating in the research mines
Yes we should've tried explaining things to Hitler better, im sure he would've come around

In an incredible turnaround, D66 - the Liberal Democrats' Dutch sister party - look to have won the election. Rob Jetten will get the first go at forming a governing coalition. If successful, he'll become both the youngest and the first openly gay Prime Minister in Dutch history.

Combined haste & incompetence will ensure that there's zero oversight of this contract.

I don't think people properly appreciate just how badly Trump/Johnson have had to screw this up to achieve these results.

Given the rise of cheap survey data and quant poli sci 101, a naive brand of political analysis I see all the time now is to assume that voters make their decisions only bc of the policies parties support. This is wrong and I call it The Strategist's Fallacy.

The Strategist’s Fallacy in American politics
The average American voter does not think about politics the way elite strategists and pundits do

Gross fact I learned volunteering at the food bank: supermarkets donate old/surplus product. We inspect it all, but there's a special step for peanut butter: remove the lid and ensure the seal is intact. Why? Supermarket customers are known to STICK THEIR FINGERS IN THE PEANUT BUTTER
Hungry people seeking food assistance should not be made a captive audience for a candidate's stump speech
Among eveything else wrong with this harebrained idea, this person has zero respect for the people who operate food banks and the people who receive food assistance
You're providing food to people, not slinging slop to pigs
"Why don't they just make the whole airplane out of the black box stuff?", and other great ideas
If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net
"The DNC should be a food bank" is a completely harebrained idea so of course a thousand people boosting it here
Good article, but George Will has been consistently anti-Trump since Trump's first run
