First, thank you to everyone for your patience with this somewhat ridiculous poll. I know I have a goofy sense of humour, and that sometimes I ask unserious questions in a serious way. I understand that this can be off-putting to some people. I appreciate your indulgence.
As I mentioned elsewhere, for some reason in the last couple of weeks of the election cycle Donald Trump started talking about candidates' asses. I think it started as a weird tangent, but as usual he doubled down on it.
@evan
You can have the hottest backside in the world, but Republicans get negative points in the hot asses category for regularly voting to take my rights.
I just don't fuck with fascists. Even if they're pretty, it'll never end well for me.
@evan please add a category of WHAT THE HELL ARE WE EVEN DOING HERE.
@quinn hey, I have been thinking about you! Have you been out to the protests at all? I've been wondering if you would write about it.
@evan I wrote about the earlier one, but I've been sick and that's slowed me down (some more recent pictures) https://emptywheel.net/2026/10/20/la-france-beats-her-children/.
@evan No, butt...
@evan A good ass has to hang off of something else and not be the entirety of the personality.
@evan
Is this a donkey against elephant thing?
@evan no but also I don't care to check
@floatybirb Nate Silver did a data-driven analysis on 538.com
@evan no but the republican party runs more asses as candidates.
@evan No, but I definitely want to see their asses walking out the door.
@jackgangi Don't let it hit ya where the Good Lord split ya!
@brooke I resisted this impulse!
Donald Trump has repeatedly praised different Republican candidates' asses, although he's mostly focused on Senator Jon Husted's butt.

This poll is almost done and I have a bunch of work to do, so I am going to give my answer now.
