You and me both, Dan. I've been pensive for the past few months and things like that poll last week don't make me more rosy. There are other things that contribute to this--an economy that, while decent on paper, still holds an unwieldy cost of living for ordinary folks; nearly a third of our populace who, still, can't be bothered to vot…
You and me both, Dan. I've been pensive for the past few months and things like that poll last week don't make me more rosy. There are other things that contribute to this--an economy that, while decent on paper, still holds an unwieldy cost of living for ordinary folks; nearly a third of our populace who, still, can't be bothered to vote, and of course, President Biden's age (it's a lot harder to get away with being old when you're expected to say sane, responsible things).
And let it be said that, if Trump IS somehow legitimately elected next year... we have no one but ourselves to blame. Those of us who know and care about this need to do whatever it takes, legally and responsibly, to prevent this outcome. Money, time, activism, engagement. Whatever pain or inconvenience that might incur on us now will pale in comparison to what we'll inflict on ourselves if he's elected. What Dan outlined is just the wavetop--reality will be much worse.
Yup. But I think Trump hasn’t a snowball’s chance in hell of getting elected legitimately. I worry about the the GOP’s voter intimidation and electoral systems attacks that might get him elected ILLEGITIMATELY 😱.
Somebody needs to convict TFG of a federal felony (preferably for insurrection) so the 14th Amendment applies and he can go to jail.
