@LlamaMountainStudioArts I can't be specific. But the effect is national. I have talked to organizers around the country about it.

@LlamaMountainStudioArts Since Biden's first election, more woman aged 18 to 24 in my county registered as R than as D. For men of the same ages, more than 75% did so. This is a light blue county. I don't have all the results yet, but this trend is occurring quite widely. I can't be more specific than that.

@darcrich Answering "Write in Joe Biden" indicates you don't really understand how the system works. We are not a cult. You vote for ideas, and for values. You aren't really voting for a person.

@LlamaMountainStudioArts It's an exaggeration to say that they were lying. They were expressing their feelings. Biden has shown significant signs of aging and cognitive decline since 2020. That is an absolute truth.

@mcfate to be clear I am not young. I am a political organizer hired to get dems elected. The words I conveyed are not my opinion (which really doesn’t matter), they are words of a demographic that is turning away from us. A demographic that dems have long felt would wash our country blue in a generation. WAKE UP!

@LlamaMountainStudioArts I did nothing to “correct” these young voters. That would have been “not listening”. You have to hear what they are saying and take this problem seriously. I’m a political organizer and a data scientist. The data are clear: young are fleeing the democrats, and I am communicating why. It’s literally my job to get democrats elected up and down the ticket, and right now, that includes Biden. But this problem is real. #politics

And the message from young folks was clear: We told you he was too old to make it 4 years, and you didn't listen. We told you to reprimand Netanyahu, and you didn't listen. We told you "don't you dare nominate Joe for another 4 years", and you didn't listen. Now it's obvious to those willing to look that Joe is too old, and we told you to stop, and guess what, you didn't listen. We are outa here. #politics

And now, when he is clearly on the decline, both physically and cognitively, YOU ARE DOING IT AGAIN. (I should say, the voters I talked to were furious. They don't want to vote for Trump but they absolutely WILL NOT vote for Biden, and many are defecting to the Republicans). The lack of a firm hand on the Gaza situation stirred the pot long before the debate fiasco. They felt unheard, yet again! Then the hand was tipped on how dysfunctional Joe had become over the last 4 years. #politics

The answer was along the lines of the following... The dems don't listen. It's like they are deaf to intergenerational ideas and concerns. We (the young voters) told you 4 years ago, that Joe was too old, and we were told that he was a transitional president that would bridge to the next generation of leaders. That he was a healer that could restore comity to our politics. We were told that one-term president could do these things. #politics

Democrats have a problem that is largely unappreciated: young voters.Young voters are registering as Republicans in numbers that are shocking: even young women (the narrative that this is entirely a male phenomenon is mistaken.) I was at a youth engagement event recently and explored the question of "Why?"

@nonayadambidnes sort of. I expect: 1) that Smith appeals to the circuit. It reverses Canon, and further supports Smith’s writ of Mandamus to remove Canon. However Trump’s team will appeal this to scotus. What is interesting is that no one joined Thomas in his concurrence that brings the issue of Smith’s status to the fore. I would not put it past this craven conservative majority to support Thomas’s opinion just because. So I consider this “hope”, but it’s risky.

If I was prepping Joe I would have told hem to take 20 seconds to say this in his opening: "I will not rebut my opponents statements tonight. I will use my rebuttal time to expand on my accomplishments relevant to the question and lay out my plan for the topic going forward. Know that everything that Donald says tonight will be lies. After the debate, fact checkers will verify this, and I choose not to waste time addressing these lies."

@misslovelymess You do need big name recognition this late in the game. If Biden steps aside, 4 names have the heft IMO: Harris, Newsome, Whitmer and Buttigieg.

@misslovelymess Here is the thing: we don't really vote for a person anymore; we vote for an ideology. But big$ donors fancy themselves kingmakers. They envision their largesse as an air of power than they imbue upon their chosen candidate. And they believe they have chips in the game if their guy gets elected. They would not donate if they thought they were giving to an ideology. An ideology can't owe you something; an ideology won't remember.

@sentientdessert Trump didn’t win this debate; Biden lost it.

@DyDave I have seen some reporting and discussion of the viability of the use of hot rocks (graphite) for thermal storage in conjunction with renewables to retrofit coal fired turbines for electricity production that look quite promising. For example,

@corlin CEOs recognize incompetence, and understand the corrosive effects that can accrue over time when policy is made without regard to established, time-tested standards of operation. COOs, and CFOs also deeply understand this. Trump is a chaos agent. In the short term, there may be targeted gains for some companies, but competent leadership should always choose political policy makers that follow predictable, steady paths.
