    When these same people watch all that is going on and get in the booth then they will check over their shoulder to see no one is looking and vote against the liberals and all their Bull Chit. Not all of them but I believe that enough of them will.
    Don't count on it. What I am hearing more and more frequently is that "Yes, I like Trump, but nothing is getting done while he is in the White House. If we elect Biden at least some good may come of it" So they vote for Biden (his VP choice really) in the hopes that all of the unrest will quit.

    I agree it looks bleak, but there is always hope. We cannot give up.

    Just wait till next week. Things always change.
    I am tired of everyone fighting with each other. This is all by design.

    Or, here in the real world, they’ll vote for the Democratic nominee, as most Americans have in 6 of the last 7 presidential elections.

    Nothing is getting done? I hope you educate them.
    Tax Reform
    Border protection
    Trade Deals
    Regulations fropped
    Middle class wages rise

    The real thing they need to do is get rid of the Democrats anywhere they can.

    Throwing out the baby and keeping the bathwater makes no sense.

    The second we let them take everything way over a minor virus, it was over. It's just a matter of time now.

    Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump 4 out of the last 7 Presidents were Republicans or 3 out of the last 7 Presidential elections or 6 out of the last 10....

    Or are you going to tell me that you don't understand the Electoral College. Popular vote only matters in the states not the national count. We are not run by Californians. So Californians and New Yorkers van pull on their "D"s all they want.

    I'm glad you reminded me. I almost forgot with the COVID late filing date. I still owe them a check. Maybe I should wait and see if we get negative interest rates and then the Federal Government will have to pay me interest for not paying them.

    Jesus Christ, you were the one posting about what the ”average American” was going to do in the voting booth. In 6 of the last 7 presidential elections, that “average American” voted for the Democratic candidate. That is a simple fact.
