* No MSNBC/NBC viewing today. My own decision, in protest of NBC's spectacularly BONEHEADED "programming decision" at the eleventh hour (pardon the pun) to air a trump town hall at the same time as Biden's town hall on ABC, which had been set for about a week. NBC easily could have and should have aired an hour before Biden's, or held it to the hour afterwards.
I don't ordinarily track CNN, so the rate of increase isn't as easy to estimate or anticipate. But then again, they aren't making some spectacularly BONEHEADED "programming decision" this evening. I won't be watching CNN, either, by then. I'm eager to tune in for Biden's town hall, on ABC.

1. world-o-meter has the number at 8,140,000 with nearly 222,000
with 20 days left, the numbers on election day will be 9,000,000 and nearly 240,000 (almost 1/4 of a million) dead.
That is some kind of leadership there Benedict Donald!
