I’ve considered just continuing to laugh at you privately, but kind of figured that mlblack or someone would put together what I was doing, so I left them an opportunity.
What you have posted before may be the most dishonest, illogical, and incorrect this posted on here this year:
You are a person that will argue ad nauseam that 18 is almost 50% of 48.
Yes, when it makes sense. 18 is 75% of half of 48. If you have 75% of $1 million, does that make you almost a millionaire? I don't think so. If you have driven 75% of the way of what is a 10 mile drive, does that make you almost there? Yes, I think it does.
You will then turn around and challenge the difference between 57 and 56%, calling someone an idiot for that variance.
Wrong. You were using exact numbers: 56 and 57 aren't estimates. They aren't rounding to a certain level. They are math errors. Further, that was minor compared to your much bigger math error.
Your difference wasn't 20% - 30%. First, as I said, you were using exact numbers. Second, your claim was that Biden's increase was 20%. In reality, it is above 30%. So your calculation was wrong by 50%.
The 20-30% difference is not far different than the 37.5% to 50% difference you adamantly defended as being correct.
Why do you continue trying to use math knowing your struggles? I said that 18 is close to 24. And it is regarding the topic. Is 23 close to 24? Is 22 close to 24? is 21 close to 24? At what point is it not close to 24?
Where do you get your 37.5% from? 18 is 75% of 24 and the difference between 18 and 24 is 33% of 18. You're using some horribly illogical statistical analysis to be using the 37.5% number.
So let's compare:
My number was 75% of something and a difference of 33% of the original.
Your number was 67% of something and a difference of 50% of the original.
On top of that and just as important, is that I notated that the number wasn't exact. I said it was "near." You, on the other than, tried using an exact number for trump (57%) which would lead a reasonable person to assume that you were doing the same with Biden's number, when in reality, you were using a very rough estimate that was 50% away from what you quoted. And to complete your lack of honest, your exact calculation for trump was incorrect (in trump's favor) while what you presented as an exact number for Biden was not only far away from accurate but also worked against him.
Finally, nowhere did I have a difference of 37.5% to 50%. as shown above, I was 75% of something or a difference of 33%.
I really don't know if you are this bad at math, as it has been years of you screwing numbers up, or if it's just you being dishonest with your arguments.
