“Perfect ground game” “strategically doing everything right” - okay what about for actually winning an election?

I will say there is this centrist mindset where, as long as you do “the right campaign”, they think you should win - without materially considering or modifying based on what opponent you’re facing (or indeed what voters care about). Then you get takes like this

I hope everyone has learned their lesson about listening to any “expertise” by British commentators

Kamala Harris will win comfortably, because:
• Biden’s admin has been solid
• Trump’s lost ground since 2016
• The young Black male votes which Trump needs didn’t turn out in 16, 18, 20, or 22
• Young women like Kamala vote
✴️Ignore polls—they’re herding, after past misses

I'm actually more surprised to learn iPhones don't tell you how long it's going to take your phone to charge than I am that Trump won.

Scotland lost someone really special today. Janey and I had an absolute blast leading the protest against Trump on the beach at Turnberry back in 2018. We were the only protestors who got close to him that whole trip, a memory I'm looking back on fondly this afternoon.

You can bitch and whine over Rayner’s £3k wardrobe as much as you like.
I’m more bothered about Dido Harding’s THIRTY SEVEN BILLION track and trace system. That only tracked and traced into Tory pockets.
Deputy PM Angela Rayner accepted over £3,000 worth of free clothes from Lord Alli
