Tim Pool is aware of his own vacillation between the poles of "Trump is sure to win big" and "Trump is likely to lose." He claims it's a one-time-only oscillation from Trump-optimism to Trump-pessimism caused by SARS-CoV-2 and the current riots. I disagree: Pool has produced a series of videos that clearly alternate in their view of Trump's electoral prospects. This is why Pool is constantly called a "fence-sitter" or a swallower of "the world's slowest red pill." Only a day or so ago, Pool was moaning about Trump's chances—not because he likes Trump, mind you, but because Joe Biden represents a far worse alternative. In the following video, though, Pool once again skews cautiously op-Tim-istic in his view of Trump's chances.
Make up your mind, Tim, and commit to a position.
I must say that observing the political scene from a distance has left me more worried than cautiously optimistic. I think Biden would be a disaster but are the American people wise enough to see through the bullshit being dispensed in huge doses on a daily basis?
ReplyDeleteOne thing in Trump's favor is that as usual, the left is overplaying their hand. I don't think these riots are going to energize the more moderate folks you need to win an election. We shall see in a few short months.
