No, President Trump: Wind turbines aren't killing 'all the birds.' Cats are.
During Thursday's final 2020 presidential debate, President Donald Trump repeated a claim he's made throughout his presidency: that wind turbines are extremely deadly to birds.
Commentary: The case for re-electing Donald Trump
US President Donald Trump has largely been true to his word on foreign policy, says the Financial Times’ Edward Luce.

WASHINGTON: Forget for a moment whether US president Donald Trump should win or lose the Nov 3 presidential vote. Ask instead what the best case for his re-election would be.
The highest number of checks on Mr Trump’s “promises kept” sheet are on foreign policy. He has not started any new wars. He has drawn down US troops from Afghanistan and the Middle East.
Isis has lost its territory; the terrorist group’s leader was killed in a US commando raid. America’s allies have been forced to think about a world in which the US no longer underwrites their security.
Most significantly, Mr Trump has identified China as the chief threat to the US in a world of great power rivalry.

You may disagree with any or all of the above. But it would be hard to argue that Mr Trump was trading in idle promises during the 2016 campaign.
Many of his domestic vows, notably building a Mexico-funded border wall and enacting a big infrastructure drive, are nowhere close to being redeemed.
On foreign policy, though, Mr Trump has largely been true to his word. The question is whether his often reckless dealings with the rest of the world is a record worth defending.
The answer is more nuanced than Mr Trump’s detractors may wish.

When two years ago he questioned the idea that NATO should defend Montenegro – a country many Americans could not place on the map – Washington’s establishment could barely contain its anger.
But Mr Trump was only channelling Mid-American sentiment. It may be reckless to dismantle NATO. But it is not preposterous to debate whether the US should risk a third world war over faraway places.
Nor is it outrageous to pull American forces from Afghanistan. 19 years after they went in, Mr Trump is promising to bring the US presence down to zero - from 4,500 troops now.

This week, HR McMaster, Mr Trump’s former national security adviser, compared the US withdrawal from Afghanistan today to the 1938 Munich appeasement of Adolf Hitler.
This is the kind of overwrought analogy that led Washington’s foreign policy establishment to be dubbed “the blob” by a senior official in Barack Obama’s administration.
Mr Obama had mixed results in fending off conventional wisdom. At one point on his watch, the US troop presence in Afghanistan topped 100,000.
Again, Mr Trump is only voicing popular sentiment. The onus is on the experts to say why they are right about Afghanistan. The evidence is against them.

But the blob has spent years asking Europe nicely to increase its share of the defence burden with limited results.
Mr Trump’s thuggish approach has prompted a debate about European defence that would have been hard to imagine without him. Nor is he always batting for Russian president Vladimir Putin, as Washington consensus would have it.

TRUMP VS THE BLOB
Mr Trump’s strongest foreign policy legacy is his new cold war with China. Some of his actions have clearly backfired. His trade war has done nothing to shrink the US-China deficit that he inherited.
But it would be an exaggeration to blame him for China’s more aggressive global posture. That was Mr Xi’s decision and it predates Mr Trump.
The US and China may now be on a dangerous collision course. But on this, unusually, Mr Trump leads a bipartisan consensus.

The Memo: Five reasons why Trump could upset the odds
BY NIALL STANAGE - 10/25/20 07:00 AM EDT
President Trump is up against the odds heading toward Election Day, but he is not out of hope.
Trump has lagged his Democratic opponent Joe Biden in polling throughout the campaign, and his last obvious opportunity to change the shape of the race — Thursday’s debate in Nashville, Tenn. — passed by without great drama.
The president's backers cite some factors that could deliver another shock upset like the victory over Hillary Clinton in 2016. Democrats, traumatized by the 2016 result, are not counting Trump out, either.
If Trump emerges the surprise winner once again this year, these reasons will likely be cited to explain his victory.
Trump’s ground game
The Trump campaign is betting that traditional door-to-door campaigning will pay big dividends. The campaign has claimed it has more than 2.5 million volunteers. As Newsweek has pointed out, this would be a greater number than the 2.2 million who backed then-candidate Barack Obama during his dramatic 2008 run for the White House.
In conference calls with members of the media, Trump campaign aides frequently cite data that they believe displays their superiority. The Trump campaign claimed its volunteers knocked on more than 500,000 doors in swing states in a single week in September, for example.
“We’re actually running a real campaign,” Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien told reporters on Monday.
The Biden campaign has pushed back, noting that it too has built a strong ground infrastructure. But no-one disputes that Biden’s side has been much slower to move to door-knocking, in particular — a reluctance largely rooted in caution about the coronavirus.
Biden’s approach may be validated in the end. Some strategists question the efficacy of door-to-door campaigning at a time when most voters can more easily and safely be contacted by phone, email or through social media.
But if Trump wins, expect plenty of credit to be given to his ground game.
Black turnout
A fall-off in Black turnout was one of the key reasons Clinton lost in 2016.
It was expected that turnout among the African American community would fall once Obama, the nation’s first Black president, was no longer on the ballot. But weaker Black enthusiasm for Clinton in cities in the upper Midwest such as Detroit and Milwaukee may have made all the difference.
Trump has focused on Black voters to an unusual degree for a GOP presidential candidate. His campaign has advertised extensively on Black-oriented radio and the Republican National Convention included a number of high-profile African American supporters such as former NFL star Herschel Walker.
There is considerable skepticism as to whether Team Trump really believes it can ramp up its numbers from the 8 percent of Black voters who supported him in 2016. But a dampening of enthusiasm for Biden could be just as meaningful.
Another wildcard is the quixotic candidacy of rap star Kanye West, who will be on the ballot in at least 12 states.
In terms of the big picture of the Black vote, there are some promising signs for Trump at the margins.
According to data site FiveThirtyEight, older African Americans remain firmly in the Democratic camp, but younger voters are less so. Polling from UCLA Nationscape showed support for Trump among Black voters between the ages of 18 and 44 rising from 10 percent in 2016 to 21 percent this year.
The ‘shy’ Trump voter
One of the most popular theories among the president’s allies is that he suffers from an unusual problem — a “social desirability” bias whereby voters who support him hide their views from pollsters.
By its nature, this is a difficult thesis to prove or disprove — though skeptics note that, if it were true, online polling might be expected to show higher support for Trump than polls in which respondents are interviewed. This does not appear to be the case.
A related theory — one favored by Stepien, among others — is that Trump’s 2016 victory was built on big turnout in the least populous parts of some crucial states.
It seems somewhat plausible that those voters are not being picked up in polls or broader media narratives.
Trump has seen his support tick up in some areas based on public polling, though Biden has enjoyed a lead in virtually all national surveys and in several key battleground states.
Voter registration
Voter registration numbers in battleground states are a particular source of bullishness in the Trump camp.
A Trump campaign source focused on the shift from 2016, noting that in the last four full months of each election cycle “Democrats consistently out-registered Republicans in 2016, but now we are consistently out-registering them.”
According to the campaign’s figures, Democrats out-registered Republicans by more than 78,000 people in Florida between August and November of 2016. From August of this year until now, the GOP has a registration edge of roughly 104,000 in the state.
The same pattern is seen in Pennsylvania, where a small Democratic advantage during those last four months in 2016 has shifted to a GOP gain of about 72,000 this year.
There are other theories in Trump World about specific states. Nevada is cited as a possible pick-up opportunity by some Trump allies, who argue that the electoral muscle of the state’s labor unions has atrophied because of the hit suffered by the tourism and gaming industry during the pandemic.
The Democratic registration edge overall in Nevada has dropped by about 10,000, according to the Trump campaign. Such a relatively small number is important in a state Clinton carried by just 27,000 votes.
The Latino vote
Trump will almost certainly lose the Latino vote nationwide. But crucially, there is little sign that his standing with Latinos has declined since 2016, despite the controversies that have flared around his immigration policies.
According to exit polls in 2016, Trump won 28 percent of the Latino vote — a surprise to some, since it was a slightly better showing than 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney, who hewed to a more centrist position on immigration.
Trump continues to poll at around the same level with Hispanic voters, even as his popularity with other key demographic groups has eroded.
The situation is especially intriguing in Florida, the largest and most important battleground state.
Two major polls in September, from NBC News/Marist and Quinnipiac University, showed Trump with a small lead among Florida Latinos. Trump won the Sunshine State in 2016 even while losing Latinos to Clinton by 27 points.
In Thursday’s debate, when Trump brought up Sanders, Biden responded that the president “thinks he’s running against someone else. He’s running against Joe Biden. I beat all those people because I disagreed with them.”
The Memo is a reported column by Niall Stanage, primarily focused on Donald Trump’s presidency.

Biden staffer: "Lots of people tell us to fuck right off and the rest are more polite and eventually say "not interested". Everyone got discouraged and quit, I now quit and feel like dirt for working in this campaign". That proves everything is frauded for Biden as much as zero to 10 people showing up for Biden rallies while Trump's rallies are to the walls and beyond, this is a FAKE ELECTION, if anyone knows the truth it is Biden's staffers. So this must also be kept in mind - Biden may have dropped his public campaign because everyone walked out.
