If Giuliani could do it how hard can it be? Seems that you don’t even have to have a grasp on reality.

She was a major reason Trump won over Hillary, and she is still taking more votes from democrats than republicans.
It’s crazy that so many identify as sociopaths and admit it.
Are we? I was not aware there was a difference in this context. Isn’t Guardian British.?
OK a stretch can also be a distance like: “a stretch of road.” I suppose that somewhat ties it together.
We actually have the equivalent of stretch of road and to stretch something being similar words, but we would never say stretching a lead.
No it’s stupid because stretching something generally means by using less like stretching resources by using less, or stretching a band by pulling it making it thinner.
That’s why it’s stupid because it contains none of the original meaning.
I can figure out in sports it probably comes from stretching out (muscles), like giving it a bit of extra effort. But the headline doesn’t work in that context either.
So in short, it’s a stupid use that is erroneously used out of the original context and meaning where it had a common denominator that made sense.
There is no stretching going on in Harris increasing her lead.
I never heard it, and it still sounds stupid IMO.
Yes I see, I still find it weird to call it “stretches”.
The synonyms “Ben Hur Horse Race” mention would of course be better.
Is that like rubber bands, it’s the same amount only stretched? Like we changed the scales on the graph to make it look bigger.
Is it really normal to write like that headline in English? Because to me it sounds stupid.
Seems increases would be the “normal” word to use.
I’m sure a tinfoil hat can be arranged.
IDK why this is downvoted, there are a couple interesting perspectives like this one IMO.
Maybe — just maybe — historian Heather Cox Richardson is correct when she writes in her newsletter that “We appear to be in a moment when the reality-based community is challenging the ability of the MAGA Republicans to create their own reality.”
I think that’s true, Harris has shown democrats a great balance on how to handle Trumps lies. Sometimes even just dismissing it as crazy.
But no matter what opinion polls show, it’s important that as many Americans as possible vote, it’s the only way a democracy can work.
Vote for the democracy!! It’s a right you don’t want to lose.
Trump using blatant mafia scare tactics to get his way. And about half the American voting population is like. Hey that’s cool, I’m absolutely fine with that, as long as he also makes the poor, the colored, the immigrants and LGBT people suffer, and he lowers taxes for the ultra rich.
When they call Trump president, it’s because they want to make the impression the election was stolen, and Trump is the real elected president.
They don’t say former, they say it as if he is the de facto president. And it needs to be called out every time we can.
It’s treasonous against the American democracy and the current administration.
Russia hacked the democrats campaign in 2015 and 2016 and for instance they released Hillary Clintons emails.
But MAGA idiots think that’s stellar, and Russia is now an ally to MAGA. Showing clearly the entire MAGA movement are traitors.
WTF? This is most likely scare tactics towards the Harris campaign, which means it’s terrorism. And they are examining it as a property crime?
LOL, if you scroll down, you can see they can’t even boil an egg properly. 😆 🤣 🤣
It’s One Banana, Michael. What Could It Cost, $10?
Absolutely, Putin is selling a stinking turd, and Trump is buying it together with other idiots like Elon Musk.
every single person who has paid money for a share <and is still holding> so far is in the negative.
Clearly the people that sold above $60 made money on all the suckers that were stupid enough to buy.
LOL that happened a long time ago.
