#BidenCalm trending on Twitter. Have no idea if this is an official campaign op or not.

Oh look the normally silent majority of the LGBTQ demographic decides to speak:

The national chamber of commerce representing LGBTQ business is backing Joe Biden, just the second presidential endorsement in the group's over 20-year history. https://t.co/JRQArm0pdb

Nate Silver on some related wagering:

Both of these propositions are almost entirely lacking in evidence, to the point where they're more superstitious than empirical, but are an interesting window into the mindset of techbros and financebros who are buying up Trump shares on prediction markets. https://t.co/HmNKxSG1ob

Can't resist making one more run at this. A chart like this is nonsense, and the analysis behind it is lacking any sort of empirical anchor and is otherwise hopelessly confused. It's amazing that they shared it with a reporter because they thought it would make them look smart. pic.twitter.com/LKLIqDNLrX

Part of it I guess is you don't look smart by pointing out the obvious, the obvious being that the candidate who has been ahead in the polls all year (Biden) is the favorite, though the question of *how much* of a favorite requires a lot of technical and domain expertise.

The anarchist brats were at it tonight in D.C. I didn't watch the whole thing. But of the few minutes I did watch, I saw a lot more white faces than black:

I’m home safely. If I had to describe the way the police behaved in CNN’s style, it would be “tear gassy and flash grenadey but mostly peaceful.”

I'd sure like to hear something from old style Uncle Joe along the lines of "c'mon man, go home, get a job or something". Or better, the mayor of Denver's you are not welcome here. Or the mayors of Nashville, L.A., Dallas, Cleveland... or Richmond. All the Dem mayors being left hung out to dry being the grownups until now. National too scared to piss off people who are no doubt going to vote for the Green Party or even the Communist Party if they vote at all, that is.

The denial of what has been going on has been absurd.

The above is basically okay,

Why won't President Trump denounce the violence on both sides happening in Trump's America?

The problem is BLM activists

In reply to Amen

The problem is BLM activists who think the anarchists are "on our side". They're not on your side, morons, they're on Putin's side. They want the chaos of a Trump re-election. They want everyone to fight against and bring down the Federal government and many parts of local government. They don't chant against Trump and the GOP-ever--they chant against Biden and attack Democratic mayors and the institutions those Dem mayors support.

None are so blind as those who can't see this. That those lefties really do want to bring down this country. They are the ones defending looting because: they want the economy to fail, and its remains to be redistributed to the whoever wants to grab them, and start allover again. They want to abolish policing because they want year zero, libertarian hell where people defend against the other with guns, only the strong survive and you start over with a new system. This is why Boogaloo bois and others like what they are doing, they are anti-government libertarians, too.

It's actually incredible. It's doubly incredible that BLM leaders have fallen for writing some of that shit into their platform. It's gonna kill their credibility.

And like it or not, property protection is the basis of our economy. That's the way capitalism works, you have to have sure protected title to property to get anything going including food, shelter and clothing. Taxation is the way you socialize, not taking away protection of property!

And until now, Biden/Harris have been afraid to point this out.

In a lengthy Sunday afternoon statement, Joe Biden calls "the deadly violence" in Portland "unacceptable" and says he condemns "violence of every kind by anyone, whether on the left or the right." https://t.co/N8rFLQorjb
