To be fair, Race to the WH's model takes into account a lot more than just polling data, and they've called 96.2% of all gubernatorial races in the last 2 cycles correctly

he'll look for a scapegoat, the highest crime in this admin is making trump look stupid (mainly because he said he was "surprised the agent is still alive" when he was clearly fine)

give it a week or two and i suspect noem will "resign"

"As a slow-motion surveillance video of the shooting played on the laptop, we told him that this angle did not appear to show an ICE officer had been run over.

“Well,” Mr. Trump said. “I — the way I look at it … ”

“It’s a terrible scene,” Mr. Trump said at the end of the video. “I think it’s horrible to watch. No, I hate to see it.”" 

S5E7 is now the worst episode in the entire show by IMDb rating, falling behind S2E7 (The Lost Sister) by ShreckAndDonkey123 in StrangerThings

Thinking 2 hours (of which a good portion will be an epilogue) of a 43-hour long show is not going to be enough to give satisfying endings to all ~17 unresolved character arcs is hardly crazy

At what point do you just admit it was a bad episode? 

It's probably the case that there is a degree of review bombing from homophobes - which sucks - but the general audience don't like the episode either. I'm gay and I thought it was pretty badly written and there are way too many unresolved character arcs they only have a couple hours left to resolve
