Everyone has been freaking out about a couple of polls that show a small Trump bounce post convention and post Kenosha . Well here’s one that shows no bounce . A new Ipsos poll conducted after the Republican National Convention (RNC) has no bounce for Trump.

Views toward Trump, Biden unchanged after the conventions

“31% of Americans have a favorable view of the president-Joe Biden's favorability is 46%. solidifying his improvement post DNC”

abcnews.go.com/…

“Trump's efforts to build his appeal and define his opponent at the Republican convention had little apparent impact on the electorate, a new ABC News/Ipsos poll finds.

“The week of celebration did not improve his favorability, even among his own base”

Trump’s favorability rating in an ABC/Ipsos poll: 31%. (It was 32% in last week’s poll, pre-convention.)

Biden’s was 40% in the poll before his convention; 45% last week & 46% today. https://t.co/uCZtXHrqOg

I just donated $25 To then Biden/Harris ticket. My budget is tight this month but I will be having left overs for dinner and lunch tomorrow, it I had to chip in. If you can give something, please do and also give a like and re-tweet to their posts. I am sooo excited about this ticket. I also liked Joe’s and Kamala’s posts. Let’s make them go viral. I pray for Biden’s campaign often( if you are a prayer person like me, please join me!) and I believe we will prevail!

I have the great honor to announce that I’ve picked @KamalaHarris — a fearless fighter for the little guy, and one of the country’s finest public servants — as my running mate.
— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) August 11, 2020

.@JoeBiden can unify the American people because he's spent his life fighting for us. And as president, he'll build an America that lives up to our ideals.

I'm honored to join him as our party's nominee for Vice President, and do what it takes to make him our Commander-in-Chief.

I have depression and my depression has become much much worse since Trump became president. My home life is good, my relationship, job good. What often keeps me awake at night is TRUMP and his daily lethal dose of abuse to America’s of all backgrounds. I really pray he is defeated badly in November.

Lets go!!!

Hmmm ....About those Trump EO’s

How deep are these EO’s that Trump signed today? Do they have any meat in them or is it just some shit show? Some twitter blue checks seem to think the EO are 10% meat and 90 % bullshit?. Trump is hoping for a bounce in the polls with positive headlines that are based on lies. I thought the protests would boost his numbers……..they didn’t!!, I thought the fake Church photo op with the Bible would boost his numbers……..it didn’t!!. I thought his constant BLM bad!!! Tweets and “ Law and order “ tweets would boost his numbers…….they didn’t. Dude, even the burning police precincts, Wendy’s, police cars etc that fox constantly highlighted during the protests didn’t boost him. I thought his daily COVID “ briefings/ campaign rallies” would boost his numbers…….they didn’t. Everyone is afraid that today’s EO stunt will give him a boost, based on his many past stunts, I’m doubtful it will help him. The only thing that can help him is cheating cheating cheating. We need to head to the polls like our lives depend on it.

Just in : Trump appears to have tonight actually only signed one Executive Order that extends rental evictions during the coronavirus pandemic. Other three documents were memoranda, per White House release.

Hard to see the political upside of a payroll tax cut/suspension for Trump now. It’ll take months to show much if any impact; it lacks support from his own party; it hands Dems an easy weapon to say he’s imperiling Social Security while he’s already in the penalty box w/ seniors. https://t.co/g2vNDnHWEk

! So, potentially huge catch from @EvermoreMichele, who says the Trump order does NOT increase federal unemployment benefits

Instead, Evermore says, the order would create a NEW program -- 1 to offset "lost wages" -- that could "take months" to implementhttps://t.co/4RgPzUkWuc

My gut feeling said something was not right at the protests, especially in Minneapolis and Oakland. It seems like bad faith actors infiltrated the protests, caused mayhem to make us look bad and change the narrative. Lots of reports are confirming this. Dive in…..

Remarkable info coming out of this presser: Gov. Tim Walls, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter and now MN attorney general Keith Ellison ALL alleging outside forces, domestic and possibly foreign, have post-Tuesday infiltrated the state, and are

Folks, will this ever end?. This individual.....probably pissed off at being asked to place her dog on a leash, does the most karen thing ever. Fake one of those "the black man is threatening my life!" 911 calls. Her actions could have literally got that man killed. Why do people keep doing this?. Also see the treatment of her dog. Poor dog. Ugh!!

Oh, when Karens take a walk with their dogs off leash in the famous Bramble in NYÃ¢ÂÂs Central Park, where it is clearly posted on signs that dogs MUST be leashed at all times, and someone like my brother (an avid birder) politely asks her to put her dog on the leash. pic.twitter.com/3YnzuATsDm

" I'm going to tell them there’s an African American man threatening my life.”

Remember Jussie Smollet was widely condemned for filing a false police report. He is even facing jail time. Why do people like the above individual get away with making false reports?.

Update 1. She has surrendered the dog.

Thank you to the concerned public for reaching out to us about a video involving a dog that was adopted from our rescue a few years ago. As of this evening, the owner has voluntarily surrendered the dog in question to our rescue while this matter is being addressed. 1/2

Tara Reade now says the complaint she filed 27 years about Biden contained no charge of a sexual assault and it did not even contain a sexual harassment charge.

...

Tara Reade says a Senate report she filed against Joe Biden didnÃ¢ÂÂt refer to sexual harassment or assault. https://t.co/J3B4PIIUdp
Ã¢ÂÂ The Associated Press (@AP) May 2, 2020

..apnews.com/…

..In her April 2019 interview she is quotes as saying…..

“I wasn’t scared of him, that he was going to take me in a room or anything. It wasn’t that kind of vibe.”

…..the now…

”I know that I was too scared to write about the sexual assault,” she says

What version is true Y’all? All the buahaha about unsealing “Biden records” was a bunch of BS! There is no bombshell in the report…..that is if a report even exists.

Also, Biden was thoroughly vetted during Pres Obama years, any sexually charged report could have been unearthed by team Obama.

Before @JoeBiden was selected VP by @BarackObama, vetters for the campaign scoured every aspect of his record, career and life. Tara Reade or complaints of sexual harassment or assault never came up. I know. I was there.

I have suspected for about 2 weeks now that Sanders was about to suspend his campaign. Articles have come out in the past week indicating that some of his advisors are urging him to bow out. Nobody really knew what was going on in Sanders head. Joe was way ahead of him and we are in the middle of a deadly pandemic, yet Sanders stayed on refusing to bow out despite calls for him to do so. Could it be that Sanders staying in the race till now may have been PARTLY to help the Wisconsin Democrats with the Supreme Court race?

...

Biden and Sanders team have been having rolling conversations for a month, and President Obama spoke with both men as well in the process.

One interesting note on timing: Sanders waited until after WI vote in part to help drive Dem turnout for state Supreme Court race
Ã¢ÂÂ Mike Memoli (@mikememoli) April 8, 2020

Also the some Wisconsin GOP seem really mad at sanders over this

....

DonÃ¢ÂÂt even have the results, and Sanders drops out the day after in person voting in WI! Did hypocrite Dems keep him in the race to drive Election Day in person turn out? Why not drop out before?
Ã¢ÂÂ Mark Jefferson (@MJ_Jefferson) April 8, 2020

I think Sanders wanted to drop out sooner( after math made it difficult for him to catch up) but decided to stay till after Wisconsin to help drive the vote up for the Supreme Court battle.
While the extreme supporters of Bernie and Biden have been fighting dirty on social media, I am glad the candidates camps have been in communication and Obama has been in the mix . Right now Biden has 96% Democratic support, Trump has 89% Republican support. Independents-54 Biden. 46 Trump, per latest Harvard/Harris poll. I know it might be hard for some but, Let’s follow Joe and Bernie’s example. We could even start by minimizing fights in the Diary comments.

unity will help defeat Trump.

AOC answered a question on fox by suggesting that Rampant voter suppression could have contributed to Bernie's loss in Michigan. She got lots of push back on social media prompting her to clarify what she meant. She says she was talking about the youth vote specifically . She says Biden ran a strong campaign and won Michigan strongly. Below is her clarification.

I was discussing youth turnout.

BernieÃ¢ÂÂs campaign tried a strategy of blowing up youth turnout. It worked to an extent, but wasnÃ¢ÂÂt enough to get us past the post. What I *was* discussing were the 3 hour waits at polling locations, which can sometimes deter young people.
Ã¢ÂÂ Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) March 13, 2020

I like her positive tone when she explains herself to those who were confused and angered by her comment like Fred Guttenberg. Since the big Biden wins,AOC has been one Sanders supporter who has toned it down and encouraged others to rally behind the eventual nominee. Even *this* clarification is a welcome development. No conspiracy theories.

The below false ad by “ the committee to defend the president” uses Obama’s voice to criticize Joe. It is a disgustingly false ad meant to stop Joe in SC. It targets the black vote. Whether you support Joe or not, Republicans ratfucking in our elections is something we don’t welcome.

YouTube Video

Now Obama’s office is calling out the ad and calling on TV stations to stop running it.

www.washingtonpost.com/…

Obama himself is now denouncing the ad. Katie Hill, a spokesperson for Obama, told us his office is calling on TV stations to stop airing the spot, denouncing it as an effort to “sow division and confusion” and “suppress turnout among minority voters in South Carolina.”

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. greet each other before the first of two Democratic presidential primary debates hosted by CNN Tuesday, July 30, 2019, in the Fox Theatre in Detroit. (AP Photo/Paul Sancya) — Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.

Culinary Workers Union is a powerful private sector local union in Nevada with about 60,000 members. Well, today they came after Sanders over M4A health care. They accused the sanders campaign of “viciously” attacking them after they circulated fliers saying Bernie will end their healthcare.

They sent out the below tweet this evening...

STATEMENT by Geoconda ArgÃÂ¼ello-Kline: ItÃ¢ÂÂs disappointing Senator SandersÃ¢ÂÂ supporters have viciously attacked the Culinary Union & working families in NV simply because we provided facts on proposals that might takeaway what we have built over 8 decades.

and of course Sanders supporters jumped on them defending Bernie, as you would imagine.

BUT the shocking thing is……..Warren is jumping on board too, defending the culinary union from attacks.

No one should attack @Culinary226 and its members for fighting hard for themselves and their families. Like them, I want to see every American get high-quality and affordable health careÃ¢ÂÂand IÃ¢ÂÂm committed to working with them to achieve that goal. https://t.co/onVqAcZRoB

Nevada is a State that Bernie is expected to win. Every Dem candidate is fighting for those delegates and looks like Warren is done playing nice.
