PAID?
The Fox article you cite ends by saying there is no evidence of anyone being paid to protest:

A number of high-profile people on the right have lobbed accusations that the rioters may be funded by an outside party.

But authorities, to this point, have been unable to pin down any central organization or funding source that's connected to the rioters they've arrested, leaving open the question of whether the riots are actually being funded and planned centrally or if they are more organic.

"We can't connect ... any protester to a single group or funder or organization. Though I don't think it would be a big leap to say the type of organization and resources they're bringing to bear are organized and funded," Mayor Bowser said Monday.

In perhaps the most high-profile piece of speculation, President Trump on Monday night in an interview with "The Ingraham Angle" claimed that he'd spoken to someone who was on a "plane from a certain city this weekend and in the plane, it was almost completely loaded with thugs wearing these dark uniforms, black uniforms with gear" who planned "to do big damage," seemingly implying that organized rioters are flying from city to city.




Sorry - I refuse to believe folks are traveling on their own dime.

And THAT is your evidence of anything.

Just amazing. Just typical.

Did you look at the twitter link I posted, Kid?

This might be the funniest thing Trump has said in his 3 plus years as President.  And you believe him.

No wonder he's going to win.

A little help here?

How do they arrive at the 7.2 (top) number?


Earlier in the day it was 6.3.

Factor in the polls dated 9/1 and you get your answer.

The great sucking sound is all the air spilling out of the trump campaign.

Thanks.

Well, I am 4-0 over last 5 elections (played Romney-Obama as a pick 'em)

not quite, no - but I'll figure it out.

There will be no vaccine distributed during the trump administration.

Watch out for repackaged hydroxy-bleach cocktails promoted by scammers and their idiot marks.

Dow finished over 29,000 today, just .06% off its record high in February.

Asked and answered by the last two polls, but perhaps you have decided to ignore this SN, too.

Kid, they list the polls they are including. Add them up. Then eliminate what you need to, add in the most recent YouGov poll before it and divide.

Dow finished over 29,000 today, just .06% off its record high in September.

Lagging NASDAQ and the S&P which have been at records for a while.

They lag because they only have one of the big 3 tech stocks - and with the split from Google, that change won't weigh as much. This is why they did a remix of their 30 stock blend.

It's also why the articles say Wall Street expects Biden to win.

And it's why we discuss the fact that the Dow et al are disconnected from the economy, now at least.

I'm less convinced of that than I used to be.

Trump heard it from someone.  Like he heard it from someone that 3 million people voted illegally in 2016.
And if the plane is almost entirely full of these guys, why didn't they just charter the whole flight?  You know, if this whole organization is so well funded?
I like how they were all wearing dark uniforms together.  Very incognito.  No time on the way to fucking things up to change.
And gear?  What kind of "gear" would someone bring with them that they could use to cause damage that airline security would allow them to take onto the plane?

One could go on re: the implausibility of this, but then thats like trying to explain that we aren't descendants of aliens to a Scientologist.  Trumpism is a cult.  That kiidcarter8 would point to a quote from Trump as proof that people are getting paid to attend the protests (quite apart from the fact that Trump doesn't say this)...we aren't going to manage to deprogram this idiot.

kiidcarter8 is very interested in the poll averages even though he doesn't understand how polls or averaging works.

Just out of the White House:

"Be ready to distribute a Covid 19 vaccine by Nov 1st"

As predicted in March.

Hope it'll be one developed in America.

No, but when they do it will bring it to exactly 7.2 instead of rounded up to it.
