I don’t know what’s gonna happen on Nov. 5th but I’ve really appreciated your energy in this thread 🤝🫶

I’m gonna pretend she never said that bc if she goes even more “stripped back” we’re gonna be getting a panflute, a banjo and yodeling.

old? She hasn’t really done it since 2013?

Tbh everyone made fun of Mitt Romney for saying “Russia is still our number 1 foe” back in 2012, but he was correct.

So is she so back or is it so over (in terms of numbers)?

She’s making good use of those sweet sweet Louisiana income tax laws I see and really shooting for the stars this year

now why’d you have to bring this up 😭💀

Does “Eyes roll back in ecstasy” sample the Perfect Illusion melody?

Wait I thought the music video was dropping at the same time where is it?

The ending omg ascended. She finally managed to leave the flop house after literally 10 years exactly.

Her best chorus in a DECADE

Sorry but - what?

Undecided voters (whether between candidates or whether they want to vote at all) also usually don’t squarely fall into any political sphere. They may believe that Medicare For All is needed, but also believe that illegal immigrants will eat their dogs and the border should be shut down. It’s hard to pinpoint their wants/needs, so veering to the center is almost always the safest bet.

Not entirely true. - New voters in 2020 who hadn’t voted in 2016 or 2018 split almost evenly for Trump and Biden (47% and 49% respectively) - 6% of voters in 2016 voted 3rd party vs only 2% in 2020 - Biden made huge gains in white suburban voters which arguably won him GA (Trump won white suburbs 51-38 against Clinton, but only 51-47 against Biden). - Biden also cut Trump’s lead on white male voters in half. Turnout is huge, and Dems need it, you’re right (especially in younger new voters)—but there’s still a coalition that needs to be built. Harris is struggling with black voters compared to Biden ATP in the race (if polling can be believed), and so she needs to run up her numbers with white women, suburban white voters, and try and keep Biden’s share of white men as best she can.

They’re not imaginary though. Both Trump and Biden won their respective elections by <100k votes.

I mean, Henry cmon.

actually IIRC we were all surprised by how nonchalant she was/if she was potentially happy about Trump being ahead. She went live while like, at a Diner, someone showed her that Trump just won Florida, and she said “oh wow, no way” really nonchalantly and then turned to the camera and talked about American Standards. It was literally nuts.

This thread is gonna be a mess on Nov. 5th I remember Lana went live during the night of the 2020 election, right after Biden lost Florida (polls suggested it would be closer than it ultimately was), and announced the American Standards album and we were all like “WTF”?

Television Heaven

Perhaps you didn’t mean it, but this sort of language makes it sound like abortion is a fun thing that, if given the choice, women would make on a whim during the third trimester. My grandmother had to have an abortion back in the 70s due to a high risk pregnancy that could’ve killed her (she was older), and it was the hardest decision she made. I am so glad she’s not around right now to see how people nonchalantly talk about abortion as if women would take the choice like it were a trip to Disneyland. No one wants to have an abortion - much less a late term one - and everyone should have the right to make that difficult decision in the care of a safe medical clinic.

I think there will be a polling error in Harris’s favor this time around. We won’t know until after the election—and this may just be radical optimism—but 🤞🤞

Let’s not.

While I can understand why Midnights doesn’t rank as highly for many Swifties (and I honestly think TTPD deserved the acclaim Midnights got) - it was executed nearly perfectly. From the announcement, to the visuals, to the rollout with “Midnights Mayhem”, the music video trailer, and her press tour; it was a moment. Plus YOYOK top 5 song in her discography

Florida!!! is her best collab
