Something's, well, weird about the polls. Namely, Nate Silvers 538, who STILL hasn't update the page to show Harris' approval numbers. Oh, you can find the individual polls on his page, but you can't select Approval Ratings for Harris like you can for the treason weasel or others not even running for president. Could it be that Nate is simply no longer relevant?

538 used to be the gold standard, now it's just another site that compiles different polls. When Clinton lost his "stock" crashed.

Well said! Love Kamala she is a breath of fresh air! So much passion and Joy must be driving Trump nuts. She is now getting all the attention. I think we should strategically figure out more ways to drive Trump nuts. I predict he will have a complete meltdown before the election.

It will be a very short drive for Trumpty-Dumpty to nuts! 🌰🥜

I was a paid supporter of TBS . Has that been stopped and I have to sign up again?

So to the few who were wondering- the Patreon membership does not change over the this website. You have to subscribe here if you want to help defray costs etc.

Thanks! It’s one of the bugs we’re working out. Sorry for any hassle.
