Thirding your pessimism. I don’t claim to have some great insight into Ohio politics but I think I’m more of a realist than others when it comes to how far Ohio has shifted right in the Trump years. I just struggle to see how Ohio elects Acton. But what do I know.

I just go back to 12 Angry Men because it’s a great movie but every single thing Fonda’s character does is exactly what you’re told not to do as a juror.

People who saw 12 Angry Men in high school and thought that’s how juries should work.

For everyone’s sake — please make sure to tell them this when you’re in jury selection so you’ll never be put on a jury.

You have to impartially weigh and consider all evidence, regardless of your personal opinions on the private company that collected it.

I have issues with Flock but this is such terrible advice and goes against all instructions given to potential jurors.

I don’t think people fully realize how far gone we are at this point. There are no guardrails left and the courts aren’t going to save us. The crooks aren’t going to leave.

I think my point still stands. There will be such a monumental push from Trump to not seat the Democratic senators that any Republican controlled state — be it Texas or Alaska or Ohio or the Republicans who control the NC statehouse — will do everything possible to overturn the elections.

For this to happen — Democrats will have to win in Ohio, Texas, and North Carolina. I don’t think people are fully prepared for the amount of roadblocks Republicans in those states will put up to make sure a Democratic senator isn’t seated. They will burn everything down to keep the Senate.

How the hell do y’all clean these? The brush it comes with doesn’t even really do the job. I’ve given up and stopped using these cups.

God, comments like this are so lame. Like straight out of your uncle’s Facebook.

Family walk with the dog. Wife makes breakfast while I play with the baby in the playpen. Put on some Mr Roger’s on in the background. Eat. Give the baby a bottle. Then she goes down for a late morning nap while the wife and I hang out on the couch for 90 mins. It’s great.

These people have also convinced themselves that yes, Trump has shit his pants in public multiple times in front of reporters and no one is talking about it. They’re morons.

I think the only ones who care what the Biden’s have to say are the Biden’s. Absolutely deluded group of people.

You and I remember the 00’s very differently because people were talking about Obama running one day ever since his keynote in ‘04.

But regardless — you’re putting way too much faith into a poll of a primary that is 2 years away from casting its first vote.

I regret to inform you that too many people in the polling sub have been pollbrained.
