Its always that way. "Generic candidate" always beats the incumbent. To his credit, Biden has maintained his status as the generic candidate way longer than should be possible. It'll be interesting to see whether or not he can ride that out.
What, is Biden such a weak candidate that he can't even garner the vote from empty land?

"In Michigan as of Wednesday, just over 1 million ballots have been returned, 40% from registered Democrats, with the same from registered Republicans. In Wisconsin, 40% of the 711,855 returned ballots have been from Democrats, while 38% have come from Republicans. The GOP actually leads in Ohio, with 45% of 475,259 early ballot returns coming from Republicans, compared to 43% from registered Democrats. The preliminary data matches up with the requests by party affiliation for mail-in ballots. The data contradicts national polls showing Biden supporters overwhelmingly plan to vote by mail or early in person."

Ok this threw me for a loop. The dude tracking all this stuff via official sources has no party affiliation data for those states. At the official Wisconsin site, for reference, it says specifically they do not have data by party registration. So I tracked this back through 3 links to the source, which is NBC news, and tried to figure out where this data is coming from, and found this under the NBC news chart:
"Last updated Oct. 16. Party registration is modeled by TargetSmart from multiple commercial sources. "So basically this - in states where we have actual data (like Florida) democrats are way ahead in absentee/early votes so far (by registration). In states we don't have data, it's "modeled" - probably based on prior years or general electorate breakdown, and it looks even. I'll see if I can figure out more. Link to NBC news below.
Nationwide (where we have confirmed state data) Democrats have returned 5.3 million ballots, Republicans have returned 2.3 million ballots.

2020 General Election Early Vote Statistics

Today's numbers in Florida - the State's first day of early voting - was the same way. But on the other hand, Trump promises a 'Big Red Wave' on election day so we'll see.
Yes, many. Also many that weren't sure about Trump so they didn't vote in 2016 but are 100% Trump now. I'm sure there are many that have flipped the other way, but I don't personally know any.
Trumps only strong democratic is the non-college educated so your "burn" is pretty bad.

I always find it interesting when people who did not go to college nor understand the process of analytical thinking claim college indoctrinates people simply because they don't agree with or understand others positions. When in fact the Brainwashed and gaslighting happens to the uneducated. Yes I understand that college is not necessary for some and there are examples of those who did not need to learn. However, for the vast majority of us mere mortals university is a time to develop.
Welllllll, I'm struggling with your statement. I guess it is how you define liberal attitudes. I agree college does provide science, innovation and critical thinking but I don't agree it leads to a liberal philosophy. Conservative positions can have the same attributes.
Liberalism is literally the move away from traditionally held beliefs. Science, critical thinking, and innovation are the tools that facilitate that move. Conservatism is literally the maintaining if traditional beliefs and opposition to innovation. I’m not talking the Democrat/Republican divide as neither party is truly one or the other.
Give some examples of Trump being an authoritarian. You have 4 years worth of his presidency to work with so this should be easy.
WTF? Is that supposed to be a 'gotcha' question? Jesus, Bill Barr is in Trump's doghouse for not arresting his political opponent weeks before the election. What the f*k is THAT?
He's the most powerful man in the world. Surely if he is an authoritarian you can come up with an example that doesn't include people not being forced to do what he wants.
Forcing people to do his bidding is the very epitome of an authoritarian. That's why Trump is pissed off at Barr for not following through on his request to throw his political opponent in jail.

Are you really this dense?
Trump is about as close to a libertarian president as we have had since Coolidge. I just wish he was as soft spoken as silent Cal.
The problem is, the "scientists" you're referring to work in social/pseudosciences, you're not talking about Surgeons and Engineers.
You are confusing liberalism with Biden and the Democratic Party. Rookie mistake. Who said Biden represented pure liberalism?He says as they're actively trying to elect someone who's been part of the establishment for ~50 years.
yeah, this sounds very "pro-science"
Seattle Schools Propose To Teach That Math Education Is Racist—Will California Be Far Behind?
California’s latest K–12 test scores were released earlier this month. Despite spending 26 percent more per pupil after inflation since 2011, test scores remain low, and improvement is proceeding at a glacial pace.

"racism and science have always gone hand in hand"
You're not the party of science, you're the party of anti-religion (which I agree with), and have thus correlated the left's perpetuation of atheism as being "pro-science". Most of the "science" you tend to be a fan of are projections and models that end up being false when push comes to shove, so you're not even very good at the science you do claim to like.
