Moody's Analytics says 2020 is "Trump's election to lose" because based on historical turnouts for non-incumbent parties since they've started measuring voter turnouts, Trump is on track to win because the economy hasn't taken a poo poo during his term, and by and large the only way to get the average idiot voter to flip is to punch them in the pocket book.

The article finishes up by saying that "Rock-solid assumptions that Trump cannot win in 2020 are a mistake."

Moody also said mortgage backed security were super strong, no danger of collapse.

They're not wrong that the only way to get the average herd mentality voter to change their vote is to punch them in the wallet though. The appropriate strategy to handle the idiots who won't change their opinions for anything else is to vote around them, get the people who don't vote to vote, because voter turnout is stupidly low across the entire US.

They're not wrong but Trump is sort of a wild card, he could win by a ton or lose by a ton or aliens could come down and publicly scold us. There's no telling what's going to happen.

And continuing the "there's clearly no way he can win" mantra is a great way to get lukewarm voters and purity fuckwits to stay home or throw away their vote in a general election.

If he wins reelection this country is finished.

I've been thinking a lot about Zuck lately.

https://twitter.com/JordanUhl/status/1184591043758559233?s=20

So him and every other billionaire with a helicopter shake my apartment daily as they fly over the traffic I sit in. That's cool. Once in a while they might look down and see me since I flip off all of them. But I highgress. I think what we're seeing now from Zuckerberg is the real turn. His little tour of America failed and killed any near-term political aspirations he might have had for the democratic party. The facade is so thin that we can see the amoral robot underneath. Then came the hearings, and the privacy news, and the mountain of bullshit we refused to buy from them. No turning back now. The Zuck full on embraces information control fash mode, buddies up to the conservative shitheel establishment, and is now trying to get a little power to go with all the money he has.

RV Petrel, Paul Allen's wreck-hunting research ship, has a pretty solid track record. The ships they've found which you've probably heard of include USS Indianapolis, Lexington, Hornet, and Wasp. Throw in a dozen or more other ships you probably haven't heard of. That's all since 2017. In the two years prior to that she did some minor projects like recovering the bell from HMS Hood for the UK government, mapping the seascape around Malta, and oh yeah, discovering IJN Musashi (one of the three Yamato class battleships).

Well, they just found IJN Kaga. She was a carrier that launched on Pearl Harbor, support the capture of the Dutch Indies, and was scuttled after Enterprise's aircraft damaged her beyond saving during the Battle of Midway. Debris had previously been found, but nobody could find the hull. Of course Petrel did.

If you still use facebook, follow their page. That's where they make their announcements, and this was one was posted about 15 minutes ago.
