How the politically homeless are voting. Joe Rogan endorses Trump. A Russian-born American on her first real election. Self-care for election ‘trauma.’ And much more.
Among other things we are watching our nation realign politically. With everything recorded moment by moment and word by word, one major slip up and the streets may fill up this time by both sides. Under fire now is not only politics but our rotten culture. Those who have controlled it plan to keep control of it and the other side is fed up with this control. Tampon dispensers in the boy's bathroom and issues like it are finally and at long last, Enough.
In the unlikely event of a tie in the electoral college, the least likely outcome, if. Congressional polls are believed id Trump/Walz. The newly elected Congress will choose. The House chooses the president with each state’s House delegation getting one vote, so that’s a toss-up. Senators each get one vote and if Republicans win the Senate, they’ll pick Vance.
My biggest fear is that illegal aliens will be the ones who determine the outcome of this election
Biden/Harris intentionally opened the border allowing unknown millions in and rewarded many with amnesty. These illegals were then flown into certain precincts of swing states
It was a devious plan and if it works we are screwed. Kamala will grant amnesty, give illegals lots of generous gifts (paid for with out taxes) and border will remain open
I’m thoroughly disappointed that enough Americans don’t see what is coming if she wins
Election Day morning and I’m still undecided. Because I didn’t get up early enough to run before work and I really need to get in a run today, I’m even questioning the one thing I thought was decided: that I was going to take my 2 hours voting PTO (thanks boss!) and get shitfaced before either voting or deciding to say ‘fuck this noise!’ and stay home and drink some more. Right now I’m leaning towards voting ‘No’ on everything; ballot initiatives, retaining judges and ALL the candidates. I just wish our gutless city council had put the wasteful spending for that new stadium for the useless Rays on the ballot. But the chickenshits, Ds and Rs alike, were bought off by the developers and the team’s owners, and they knew it would never pass so they pushed it through without a public referendum.
If Trump wins, the best thing might be that the MSM finally takes a look in the mirror and realizes it is complicit. The nonstop lies about Biden’s fitness, the lack of coverage for democrats running against the establishment (RFK jr, Dean Phillips: both who said early on Biden is unfit) The lack of coverage on inflation, the border and crime in the cities. And most importantly the demonization of Republicans in general.
I would have loved to have seen the participation of exceptional, brave, creative people like Musk break the ideological shackles with which the U.S. is slowly being strangled, but I fear, from what I've been seeing, that Harris will win. What we've been used to, what has been foisted on us by a media- government-academia monolith,is the negative, the destruction of so many quintessentially American tenets, the capture of its institutions. "Reimagined" isn't creative, it's a blowtorch.
Voter interviews were depressing. So many were uninformed, based on dislike, or casual. No mention of the encroachment on speech tirelessly sought by the Biden Administration working with NGOs and shadowy firms, keeping advertisers away from independent or opposition sites, all the removals, the de- platforming, the working with big tech, the whole shebang. Maybe voting is wasted on voters. The NY Times and Media Matters listing scores of sources and sites not in the Harris fold as "election interference" -- the kind the Times and Media Matters indulge in 24/7. The increasingly dark shadow over free expression is authoritative and yet the voters I saw didn't mention it. In a clip I saw the ones who were concerned said for some reason they couldn't vote, and were mostly black. I saw old women who boasted of being Democrats hyped up about abortions they'll never need. (I have a problem with abortion up to viability. A seventy-five year old should, too.)
The border is an unprecedented breach committed by no other U.S. president and administration for which the officials involved should be brought up on charges. It will now continue, codified by a bill that other than a few cosmetic changes allows the filling of America to continue. Harris knows that better than anyone else and she lied.
Happy election day. America continues to vote itself out of existence. Casually.
Question: Has Georgetown University turned into a day care center for dysfunctional people? Never mind, that's pretty obvious that it has!
See I will vote. If my choice wins I get up tomorrow and go into work. If my candidate loses, I get up tomorrow and go into work.
Our sons and us have discussed this and believe you need to be able to take care of your family and always plan for the worst. Not dooms day but be realistic. No politician will bring Utopia and fix everything. Our country simply has too many freeloaders and under achievers in today's situation. So no special bull shit needed, be ready to care for and defend your family and hope for a split legislative election as supposedly, they control the purse. Although lately they have less control than Tammy Faye Bakker and the home shopping network.
In a trading surge this morning, the United States is up 5/8ths of a banana. Trading has been suspended for two hours on suspicion of market rigging. Updates as available. --- 30 ---
To me, the idea of voting early goes against the idea of every vote counts. It shouldn’t matter when you vote. I just worry that all this hype about the dominance of early voting for republicans will backfire. Someone please make the case for early voting!
Strongest case for early voting is: The dead have trouble getting out and about during daylight hours. So it's either early voting or harvesting ballots as an option. Plus the racist demands for an ID, you know that ID poor folks and the dead don't have, well unless for a bank account, Govt assistance, free phone, or other things in everyday life. But still racist!
The Georgetown students and the NYT tech folks prove yet again the weakness of the mollycoddled Gen Z is a dangerous reality. I’m old enough to remember when a “safe space” in college would be a bong, a bed, and getting thrown in the room butt nekkid with that Iranian girl. And I skipped Douglas Murray’s article Sunday and find his argument even less compelling today. Nixon was a notoriously poor loser. He famously yelled at the press “you won’t have Dick Nixon to kick around anymore” then beat his wife. Resigning after massive criminal activity and not conceding when you know your opponent was put in office by the Mafia and you could be assassinated is not graciously losing in my book. Finally, I’m hoping for a red wave just to see the great salt lake of liberal tears and the reaction here at the allegedly Free Press
This is the simplest election in US history. It isn’t about woke politics or foreign policy, it isn’t about mass media or immigration, it isn’t about the economy or what is/isn’t a states right. All of that will remain as it has for both sides. This is about whether or not a President is allowed to sidestep justice and override the fundamental promise of America.
What Trump did after he lost in 2020 set a precedent. If you vote for him then you are saying to future politicians “It’s okay to proclaim you won an election you lost, it’s okay to call governors and demand they falsify votes, it’s okay to deny the constitution”. If we vote Harris, we tell our future politicians “Its not okay to spit in the face of democracy”.
After two cycles voting Independent, I’m voting for the only logical choice one can when considering history. The founding fathers risked their lives to ensure future Presidents couldn’t take advantage of this nation because they loved democracy and despite its flaws, I do too… now ask yourself, do you?
Don’t see the comparison. So if you buy one thing and it gets switched, is that okay? Point being she dropped out once before because she was so bad. Yet the puppeteer’s put her in place and sell a new song. If you are comfortable with that, then so be it. As for me, I call bull shit!
That’s a fine position, I don’t think that’s irrational. My point above is that for me the constitution must hold. I’m beyond annoyed by what happened with Kamala being put in Joes shoes, I didn’t even vote for Joe last time and I’m not a democrat so my word doesn’t hold a ton of weight but none of that was threatening the constitution which is actually what holds up our democracy.
See? The hijab really does prevent sexual assault. As soon as she took hers off, a group of men descended on her and assaulted her. If only she had complied. It was for her own good.
In a contingent election, it’s the House and Senate that choose the prez and veep. So it’s more likely to be a Harris/Vance administration in that highly unlikely scenario. But fun to think about.
More fun to think of the Mistress, Solider Timmy, Crow Pelosi, and Joe all trapped in a cabin during a month long snow storm. Who comes out alive and who is eaten? You know, a Tim Burton movie!
Well, if over 50% of the electorate has voted in some places, I'd say that you probably do have a representative sample. Otherwise, you're saying that almost everyone who voted is on one side or the other if you expect the remainder of the voters to vote differently by a significant margin. Polls/surveys takers often try to measure "non-response bias" when returns are under 50% of the number of surveys sent out, but it becomes less important as the response rate increases above 50%. I guess in this case you might say the expected margin is so close that even a small non-response bias could be important in determining the outcome.
Dontcha just love the equivocation of the pundits? It’s so close it could go either way. It depends. The polls are basically tied. Blah blah blah.
I guess we’ll see what happens but I suspect it’s not close, the democrats will cheat but not enough as the GOP is more vigilant this time, and Trump will win decisively.
Ive saved an article reprising a NYT recent poll just to see how wildly gaslighting it was.
“Hard work is joyful work” is NOT something I want my politicians saying. This shit gets creepier everyday.
Among other things we are watching our nation realign politically. With everything recorded moment by moment and word by word, one major slip up and the streets may fill up this time by both sides. Under fire now is not only politics but our rotten culture. Those who have controlled it plan to keep control of it and the other side is fed up with this control.

Tell me what you really think!

You really think that would happen- NOT
Not likely, but their viewers might realize they are no longer the gate keepers

Thank you, Daniel
Yours is a voice in the wilderness this morning
There is no rational criticism of what you have stated
Good to know you support no more Primaries for candidates as the Mistress has proven the point, intelligence needed to win a primary is an allusion.
If you have an issue with the two party system, I’m with you. But no part of our constitution or law states that either party has to have a primary.
Don’t see the comparison. So if you buy one thing and it gets switched, is that okay? Point being she dropped out once before because she was so bad. Yet the puppeteer’s put her in place and sell a new song. If you are comfortable with that, then so be it. As for me, I call bull shit!

Sorry I just can’t see your point. I’m an old guy and never saw the gross lying and hate spewed by the dems so I voted for the lesser of two evils.
Oh please.
See? The hijab really does prevent sexual assault. As soon as she took hers off, a group of men descended on her and assaulted her. If only she had complied. It was for her own good.

I hope you are right.
If they cheat in this one, there will be no need to vote again. We will have become a one party system. Who would’ve thought?
California!
It looks like a red rout over the blue but they’re known to steal so stay tuned
