          do you know of anyone that’s good at finding action, doing succinct analysis, and also maybe not dwelling on interviews? unicorn riot does the first one well, but id rather just have a media personality delivered the narrative than someone neck deep in the action.

      he’s a dummy. i never meant to suggest he isn’t. but he used to be able to at least find real stories i cared about.

    I don’t know who Tom Pool is, but I’d stop listening to him if I were you. He’s an idiot, a crackpot or (most likely) both.

      he used to be a real journalist and he was great at finding conflicts on the ground and livestreaming them. something happened in the last 10 years, but he was, truly, a good journalist.

    I’m wondering if there is a bit of misunderstanding or miscommunication going on here? I don’t know the statement or the context, but my interpretation based on OPs title is that this person is implying …

    Registered Democrats will switch their party affiliation so that they can vote for Haley to be the Republican nominee for president.

    The implication that enough Democrats will do this that it will affect the outcome is, how shall I put this nicely, wholly unsupported by data or reality. On the other hand, the intellectually dishonest types will actively seek examples of people doing this (or claiming to do it) and use that as “evidence” that it is happening on a wide scale.

    The fact that some number of people will switch parties to vote in a primary is inevitable and happens every presidential election cycle and is not a tool used only by members of one party. You might as well predict that someone will get into a car accident in the USA in the next 24 hours.

    Might be better than trump, in that she hasn’t pledged state sponsored political retribution and throwing out The Constitution, but Haley is still a Republican through and through and there is zero chance of a rational dem voting for her over Biden.

    Why would you ever believe anything from Tim Pool? He does nothing but spout bs for engagement revenue.

      lately. once, he went fact-finding. but that was so long ago, most probably can’t remember.
