Why is this the only post from The Bulwark that comes up when I hit community or discussion?

Let's take a breath.

Yes, the Russians are trying to replicate their successful disinformation campaign that put Emperor Nero II in the White House. Yes, the Emperor (also known as Darth Lascivious) is preparing to stage a coup. Yes, right-wing wannabe militia types are crossing state lines to stalk and kill innocent protesters. Yes, the coronavirus will continue to be out of control for the foreseeable future because radical individualism is at the core of the American creed (hence, the "mask is slavery" trope).

But Biden's going to win, right? Please, God almighty, please.

All these comments and polling results sound great, but I just drive north through Iowa, up to minneapolis, then to south central Wisconsin and finally down to St. Louis. Trump signs are prominently featured everywhere and outnumber Biden signs by 100:1 I’m sure. How do you explain the poll results?

In the predominantly red area I live in...it is bound to have more Trump signs, plus, in my experience, Trump voters are really just more over the top with that stuff...plus, it is also safer to not put out Biden signs...

All areas won't look the same...nor does everyone who votes put out a sign...I don't...

I have a Biden sign in front of my house in Animal Crossing. I don't have one in front of my non-virtual home in case the election goes badly and some crazy person wanted to shoot out my windows. I don't know why there aren't more Biden signs elsewhere, but that's why there's not one at my house.

One of the most significant things that people should be pointing out to refute the ridiculous assertion that there are more cases is because there is more testing is the NFL. Since Aug. 1, when daily testing of everyone (players and team personnel) began, there have been more than 500,000 tests administered with 137 confirmed positive tests. It only takes a person with a logical mind to realize that testing asymptomatic people and then isolating them if they test positive prevents further passing on of the virus. It's frightening to realize that either the President and his sycophants are either dumb or don't care. Which is worse? I guess both are equally abhorrent.
