The one point establishment Dems make that is impossible to refute is that the Republicans should, in any coherent democracy, have made themselves inelectable in anything vaguely resembling a battleground state since 2016. The fact that they haven't says more than lib-left naysayers will admit.

here is a very self-serving question for y’all: if i were to put out a curated book of my work from the past half decade on democracy and constitutional reform in the US — with plenty of new material as well — would you find that worthwhile?

Many really want the interesting question to be about Trump's personal electoral strengths, but the best explanation of 2024, 2016, and mostly 2020 is that he mostly performed as a generic Republican - and if there's a question here, it's why voters treat him that way.
Polisci did it again. One of the most accurate predictions of the pres. election is taking the simple average or median of the pre-election models from this issue (in print now but published in October). We are good.
2-party predictions: Harris 49.8 and 246 EC.
Actual 2-party: 49.24 and 226 EC.

After their trade, the Falcons select at No. 26 Tennessee edge James Pearce Jr, a player they've done extensive homework on.

In fact, the team met with Pearce and his mom yesterday, looking into his character. They believe the culture set by Raheem Morris will help.
