  1. Have we passed all NC deadlines to change the governor candidates?
  2. In this scenario, the only deal that should be pursued is the following: Trump admits he lost in 2020 and 2024. In a press conference standing next to Biden and Harris. Asks his supporters to accept this as fact. Pleads guilty to all of the current federal crimes. Can't this eliminate the possibility of appeals? Biden commutes his sentence on his last day. Therefore he's a federal felon but he just doesn't have to serve time in federal prison. This would be a huge win for Dems. It would throw some in the GOP in disarray that Trump abandoned them.
  3. Harris wins 400 EVs while taking Texas? Abbott and Paxton would arrest every Harris county and Houston official the next day. turn those machines back on.
  4. I could see that more as a post-election day idea. I don't see it happening but the small remote chance of Trump agreeing to admit he lost in exchange Harris or Biden agree to pardon him.
  5. I have zero doubt that Trump will come out ahead in selling that stock, and others will be left holding the back when the stock ultimately drops to $0. It's just like how Trump supporters bet their life on the 2020 prediction markets that Trump would win.
  6. but but when I went to bed at 1am Trump was easily winning PA. Then when I woke up, somehow Biden had more votes. I saw a video of a vote counter pulling out a box of ballots from under her desk. It was rigged. Saw it with my own eyes. Do your research. 😀
  7. DJT down to <$15 per share. Which is still a market cap of $3B in which the revenue and growth do not even remotely support. Insiders like Trump or Devin Nunes are believed to be able to start selling their share as early as this afternoon. I'm uncertain of the exact time.
  8. For Harris to surpass 400 EVs, she would need to win every swing state along with TX, FL and OH. I haven't seen any evidence that today supports this as a strong possibility. Impossible? No. Likely, No. The big problem with Trump and polling is the Trump voters who understand they have zero defense in voting for him. They just will give him their vote but they won't admit it to anyone. They definitely won't tell a pollster.
  9. The Republicans that know Trump's policies are bad refuse to speak up. At best they will go with the, "what Trump really meant..."
  10. Forget stop issuing the cards. They would immediately lower all credit limits if not terminate any new charges, if banks could only charge 10%.
  11. I started to write a reply that PA should adjust their counting procedures to avoid the ballot conspiracies. Then I realized that there is no end to the right's conspiracies. You can keep addressing their concerns, and they will always have another concern if they lose. They don't even trust each other when it comes to primary ballot counting. I believe they've run off more GOP election officials than Dems.
  12. Trump has never lost the real popular vote. Haven't you been paying attention the last 8 years?
  13. Trump’s business supporters will ignore this and refuse to comment on its absurdity but they also know that he has no power to do this. They understand it’s a lie for the rubes.
  14. Geez. He will really promise anything at this point. Surprised he hasn’t promised the incel guys that he will fly in Eastern European women for them.
  15. “Do these come in a style or color like I’ve frequently worn them hiking even though I haven’t?”
  16. He will claim that his pledge is no longer valid because Biden told the SEC chair to tank the stock. He will say that his selling will allow more Team MAGA to buy the stock so they can all share in the beautiful wins.
  17. I’m guessing Mike Johnson is once again blaming Dems for not voting for the GOP bill.
  18. Trump may be able to get Loomer to stay back by promising her that she will be in the WH perhaps even in the residence in a few short months but that he needs her to step back for a minute.
  19. This guy would have hated Jesus.
  20. There's demand for cheap(er) housing. Developer finds acreage near a pipeline that perhaps no one really wants. Build homes and the home buyers are ok taking the risk even though they truly don't understand the risk. In the greater scale of risk, living in this area comes with many risks. Shelter-in-place seems to be a relative regular occurrence with nearby accidents. Then add in the long term health concerns of living near petrochemical plants.
  21. thanks for sharing but you're shaking my belief that Americans are good. While wrong, I can somewhat understand why southerners could cheer on the South in a civil war reenactment but people in WA?
  22. In 2020, Wyoming had the same number of voters as El Paso county, both roughly at 270K voters. Imagine if we had 2 senators for each county at El Paso's size.
  23. national cable shows vs. local tv don't have to be a OR. Harris and Walz can do both. There is not a net negative in appearing on CNN or CNBC. The other aspect of national shows is that they can also influence a wider range of voters including those in states that are already decided. Those voters can change the national polls that say who is ahead overall which does matter at this point of the race.
  24. Harris needs to bite the bullet and address the "ban fracking" comments that she did make in 2019/2020. I don't see it as tough. Just say, "When I stated ban fracking, it was in context to poor safety practices by a minority of operators. I know and I fully expect that competent drillers perform fracking at the highest levels of safety to the environment, the nearby community and their employees. As long as the operators continue to demonstrate that level of safety, I have zero intention of stopping them from making America energy independent." If the media disagrees about the context Harris can follow it up that as a senator and VP she has never pushed to ban fracking. Actions speak louder than misinterpretation of a statement.
  25. Why does it feel like I only see Vance, out of the 4 candidates, on TV interviews right now? If you interpret his words on these shows, it's nonsense but he does project a calm demeanor in stark contrast to his boss. It creates the shallow illusion that a Trump/Vance administration will competently steer this country. And while it's easy to say that only morons will fall for Vance's act, that moron's vote counts as much as anyone's. More so if the moron is in a swing state. Walz and Harris need to get in the studio (CNBC, CNN, etc.) and communicate to wider TV audiences rather than focusing on rallies. IMO rallies offer limited benefit as the crowd is already 99% voting for that candidate. I don't see these rallies converting many independents or undecideds.
