RIP Daniel Menaker. The dude would respond in earnest with a well thought out response to anyone even when I was named something like "Chelsea Clinton Onlyfans". He was a treasure and I think anyone who had the good fortune to interact with him was blessed to have done so.
imagine being nine years old, using the urinal at school, and a wild eyed, sweating matt christman bursts into the room, slams the stall door shut, and proceeds to take a violent, unhealthy shit.
CNN: “This just in. Exit polls are showing that Michigan was flipped in favor of trump by about 4000 stoners siting ‘wanting Virgil to have to touch the poo’ as their animating cause for voting trump”
@@johnc.wrigley6147 there is literally nothing edgy about what they are saying. If you think the status quo can fix shit you're more conservative than you think.
The second national election in which I was eligible to vote was 1980. I wrote in some Bozo's name (Bozo-not Bonzo) in the presidential slot. A large department store gave away a really good hot dog for showing your "I voted" stub. That's the last election in which voting benefited me.
Re counting or not counting the vote, what about all the down-ballot races? Wouldn't the Republicans running down ballot want their votes counted if not completing the count means they lose?
Both of your predictions are completely incoherent. Virgil, you said you have Biden winning the National Popular Vote by a whopping 12%, yet your individual state predictions are more reserved than Matt’s, who has his NPV at 9%. You have Biden losing Ohio, Iowa, Florida, and Texas, whereas Matt has predicted 2 of those to go for him. Which means Matt’s prediction would be more consistent with a 12% NPV victory. Matt, you have Georgia going for Biden, but have him losing Florida. Huh? A traditionally deeply red state going for the Dems, but a bellwether like FL staying in Trump’s corner? Both of you concede that Nevada is surprisingly close, yet that doesn’t raise any alarm bells for you guys that, hey, maybe, Biden is in deep trouble with Latinos? If that’s the case, how on earth can you predict him winning a GOP strong hold like TX? You mention his lagging performance with this demographic compared to Clinton, but do it so casually as if it’s not a big deal. Also - Virgil, you’re smoking some good cush if you think Ohio, where Trump won by 8% in 2016, is flipping to Biden. Not even Obama could win OH by that margin in 2008’s landslide over McCain. At least that’s somewhat consistent with your 12% NPV win for him, which I doubt you actually believe. Ohio is going for Trump My prediction is that this election is going to be fuuucking close…...Biden wins the Popular Vote by 5 million, but Trump *pulls it out of his ass in the Electoral College* in another split that leaves the country even more shittier than it already was. Something like a 276-262/280-258 win for Trump. Dems keep the House. Reps barely keep the Senate. No chamber of Congress changes.
@@JoaquinFont beyond absurd to suggest that trump lost no one from his base. Beyond absurd to suggest Biden is Hillary 2 especially when turn out is already huge
hillary was not a "well, i guess i'm just going to vote for this democrat." she was "i can't vote for this upstart hussy." trump was a question mark. now he's not. that's all you need to know.

I love matt and he is far more intelligent than me, but he gets drunk on his solo stream and starts talking in circles sometimes.lol biden sucks, but i never realized how severe his stutter was until i saw that recent frontline special.
@@ZenobiaofPalmyra obviously his age is an issue but i also hate that trump gets to bully him about it. Matt goes hard which make him great but there is plenty to hit biden on besides how he speaks.
@@dirtydee1233 Oh of course. I just hate the suggestion he is senile because he has a speech impediment + a complication due to old age that inflames it. For clarity my mother has something similar and my dad calls her senile behind her back, so it hits a bit closer to home than most.

I've been listening to this program since I was a child
This opening bit captures everything I hate about NPR, Virgil is so spot on.
"I'll touch the poo but not if he steals it."
imagine being nine years old, using the urinal at school, and a wild eyed, sweating matt christman bursts into the room, slams the stall door shut, and proceeds to take a violent, unhealthy shit.
Every so often Matt says something so glorious... "hit in his butt with a palmetto frond"
You know what the funniest move a president Biden could make is? Make Hilary Secretary of State.
Ghadafi's ghost would sit up and notice! (ouch)
It's funny to listen to this after election night.
No shit. 20:00 onwards is hilariously inaccurate
Well prepare for 2024🔥🔥🔥 Biden popularity in gutter now
Was hoping for a Don Hughes cold open.
I got some bad news for you
CNN: “This just in. Exit polls are showing that Michigan was flipped in favor of trump by about 4000 stoners siting ‘wanting Virgil to have to touch the poo’ as their animating cause for voting trump”
good
Go vote. But don't pretend it will do anything. The world is unravelling, and Biden isn't gonna stop that, even if he genuinely wanted to.
So edgy ... I take my wisdom from blackpilled zoomers .... nothing matters... damn that's a good point
@@johnc.wrigley6147 i'm not blackpilled. I just don't have faith in the status quo.

my cousins group chat is lit when a beltway garage drops.
I almost choked on my water at the Cab Calloway joke. That was beautiful
I think Trump would be campaigning hard even if it were certain he would lose.
Ha, i get it. I'm from Minnesota.
Does anybody have Graham's SC boaters poll numbers?
Rip justin cass from florida
never thought id be this early to an episode... idk what to say, make more Simpsons references or something!
Hell yeah shout out to the Democracy Sausage Sizzle
Is Virgil, like he did to Michael Isikoff [sp], taking defiant bites of food at the Chapo audience during this?
This election will be decided on which candidate is more hated by the other side.

See ya in a week

did you see the trump rallies in Philadelphia that have been raging every night.

Fake stutter
His stutter is real but I do think it is exaggerated by a health issue. Basically he might not be getting enough oxygen and blood.
