Trump's support is collapsing

Multiple and highly reputable polls are showing Biden leading Trump by double digits nationally and by numbers outside the margin of error in most swing states. The most conservative polls show a lead of around 8% for Biden with others showing leads of 12-16%. We are now within the four week window of the election and team Trump is running out of time to climb out of their hole. No presidential candidate has enjoyed this kind of lead at this stage of an election since 1984 and no incumbent president trailing this badly has ever been reelected for as long as we have had reliable polling data.

If I thought polls were legit and not just propaganda manufactured to shape opinion, I might be worried

The degree to which people on the right, and Trump supporters in particular, have become completely divorced from reality, is one of the more worrisome side effects of our ongoing four year national nightmare.

You need to jettison your effete classical liberalism. Then reality won't seem so nightmarish.

Once upon a time, I left the Episcoal something or other because it became more and more about the NYTimes front page. Orthodox blogs are increasingly trending in a similar direction. Sad to observe.
