You like Trump. There is a simple problem ...[/QUOTE]

... Yeah, -- you can't stand that someone who works to heal this nation, bring it into prosperity, joins other nations for peace, and tells the TRUTH.

You'd rather believe the FAKE (Dishonest) Media.

There are two more debates for President -- at least there are two more planned.

The VP debate might be interesting because of the gay angle. She got Pete Buttigieg to help her prep. He's playing at being Pence. LOL @ a gay man standing in for a homophobe.

My son is really keen to watch all of them, he is really interested. He then talks to a friend in Texas about it. They don’t always agree , but are respectful of one another’s views.
So, if most people are voting by post, when do they have to decide ?
Have they worked the dates of the debates around the dates to allow enough time to decide and post ?

The rules vary by state, I believe you can still request a mail in ballot.

You may also be able to do early voting in person to avoid the rush on election day. This is what I'll be doing.

Who knows? I haven't received my ballot yet. I'm not sure when it will get mailed. It seems to vary wildly. Some people have already voted in person in some states with "early voting." I got an email from Senator Casey -- it was so long, I didn't read it all. It made me want to go vote in person.

Trump supporters were disrupting a polling place in Virginia. I don't know if charges got filed, but I think they should have been.


I wonder if Trump knows being a poll watcher doesn't mean you wave signs and chant. You register for the job and go watch.

It's curious because it could backfire on Republicans. It looks as if a lot more Democrats are choosing to vote by mail while more Republicans are planning to vote in person. (Story here: Democrats take massive early lead in absentee ballot requests in key battleground states) Older people tend to favor Trump; and if this kind of thing continues, it may frighten some elderly people into not voting. They might hear about chaos and confusion at polling places and decide not to risk it. They also have to worry more about Covid-19 than younger people. The Trump campaign realized this perhaps a little too late -- after the President criticized voting by mail, they were robocalling people encouraging them to. I supported MCain when he ran, so the Republicans still send me mail and call me -- and I got a "phone call" from Donald Junior encouraging me to vote by mail. I had to laugh. Then I read they were calling people in other states too.

Not worth watching

I learned not to argue with toddlers, a long time ago

Hopefully, Biden learned this lesson last night

Most of the mail in ballots in every election are tossed for glaring inconsistencies...

If Biden is counting on these mail in ballots for the majority of his base...he could be in real trouble especially when Trump's poll watchers contest the ballots for these irregularities.

In fairness, neither Trump or Biden exhibited the slightest notion of self-control during the debate. They went after each other like a couple of old bulldogs and made themselves look like absolute fools. I wouldn't be surprised if these presidential debates go down in history as The Battle of the Grumpy Old Men. I'm just glad they didn't have canes because they would have whacked each other with their cane. The "debate" between Trump and Biden was a national embarrassment and it made me ashamed of our country. I hope this presidential election will open the eyes of more Americans and make them realize that the Republican Party and the Democratic Party are out of control and they need to be voted out.

The joke goes something like this:

Did you hear about the riot in Cleveland last night?
They called out everyone for it too.
State troopers to a ton of city cops....I heard even the secret service was there too.

But all they found was two old white guys fighting and 80 people sitting around watching them.

You really thought Biden went after Trump?

And here's another attack against Trump Supporters:

OUTRAGEOUS: 15 New York Agents DRAGGED Triple Amputee War Hero Brian Kolfage From His Wheelchair Into Backseat of Their Arrest Vehicle in Florida

So it took FIFTEEN OFFICERS to arrest a TRIPLE AMPUTEE?

It took a DOZEN (PLUS CNN LIVE ON THE SCENE, I wonder how THAT happened) to arrest Paul Manafort.

And 29 OFFICERS and 17 Vehicles to arrest the 66 year old Roger Stone in a pre-dawn raid.​


Seems the Deep State doesn't like Conservatives, -- Accusations/COUPS/Impeachments . But when a Liberal colludes with the Russians, or violates Classifications Rules, or destroys "documents", or accepts Graft, or family member accepts Graft, or incites Violence against Conservatives, -- nothing happens.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm,

Honestly, I saw Trump baiting Biden throughout the entire debate - if you can call it a debate - and I thought he used decent restraint - certainly not perfect restraint - but, I am not sure many could handle the constant barrage of baiting, insults, and mockery from Trump, who apparently was not their to follow any rules or impart any information.

Biden certainly was not perfect and the entire debate was the chaotic, crap fest that Trump intended it to be. My only question is - why didn't Trump just refuse to show up? He is the trailing candidate that needed this debate, but if he was planning on blowing it up, why bother even coming?
