romad1 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 Looking like the polls out of the debate and since the convention are settling in at a 5 point Harris lead. I wish it were more. I wish it translated into a bigger lead but the ground game will matter too. Got to keep outworking them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oblong Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 400K people have linked to the vote registration site from Taylor's instagram post. Normally they get 30K a day total. Now, does that mean they all registered? Who knows. Many of them probably already are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasfh Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 I’m thinking we might be at the point where people start waking up and paying attention to the race, which will help Kamala, because once people see or are reminded what a ****ing horror show Trump is, that should only accrue to her benefit.

It comes down to how much someone might profit from it. Like the auto companies weighing the cost of a recall vs. the cost of the lawsuits.

Given: Immigrants ruin the country. Posit: There are immigrants, Conclusion: The country must be in a state of ruin. Corollary: Evidence presented that the country is doing well must be fake news.

It doesn’t give him the chance to change the lingering impression of him that everyone who watched the debate took away from it. It also acts more or less as an admission that he doesn't think he can change or improve his situation through that format. Don't know that it ultimately matters a lot electorally, but it is such a damning thing.... and really not unlike the situation Biden found himself in in that his biggest liability (age) was something he couldn't ever fix.

His full self driving is nothing more than adaptive cruise and lane centering. GM and Ford have more autonomous capabilities than Tesla. He hasn’t delivered on anything. He said he would have over a million robo taxis on the road by now. His hyperloop was a failure. The model S hasn’t been updated in nearly 15 years now. He’s the ultimate charlatan who got wealthy by over-inflating his stock with false promises. The market value of Tesla is more than automakers that sell four times as many vehicles because he’s the ultimate con man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a resume of building companies and taking substantive products to market. Trump has nothing of the sort. Starring in a reality show created by someone else is all that’s ever really done that didn’t go bankrupt.

gehringer_2 Posted September 12 Share Posted September 12 (edited) 34 minutes ago, Motown Bombers said: His hyperloop was a failure Hyperloop was pretty hilarious. He gave away a lot of money to engineering schools to work on it and they cynically took it all knowing it was nonsensical. I watched a team of students spend a year and plenty of Elon's money building a prototype contraption in our student project center to Elon's criteria even though all but maybe the freshmen knew it was windmill tilting. I don't know much about Elon's STEM skills, but I know he can't understand much about engineering scaling not to have dismissed hyperloop 10 minutes after he thought it up. There is a fine line between having the genius to successfully step beyond conventional wisdom and the recognition that you still have to do it inside the envelop of real physics.
