This is becoming a weird election. I just can't see the Democrats even getting close unless they cheat.

We are approaching a very weird election in which one of our major parties is taking a stand in favor of rioting, looting, arson, destruction of federal property, and violent attacks on law enforcement. The Democrats seem to think that this is a winning formula. If it is, our republic is doomed. While we may be in deep trouble, I don’t think we are that far gone yet.
I agree with this last bit. But who knows
Of course it's going to be close. You are a prime example of why, people have picked Team A or Team B and no matter what their team does they will vote for it.
Somewhere on cyberspace there is a poster called Fullback that posting as fervently as you are about Biden/Hillary/Bernie.

It would be great if they could all meet for a cage match or something

I’ll chip in for them to have a chainsaw fight.

What a headline:
TRUMP: DELAY ELECTION UNTIL PEOPLE CAN SAFELY VOTE
Sent markets into a bit of mini-tailspin.
All sort of conspiracy theories about the federal troops in Portland being a "dry run" for full on martial law around election time.
Classic Trump. Says something outrageous on Twitter and his opponents obligingly howl at the moon.
Must be bad economic figures due to be announced that day or something.

Biden's strategy of hiding away is working quite well.
I think Trump will try to force Biden to come out and start campaigning.
Trump should start going on the liberal networks and attacking him.
This will force Biden to respond.I still think Trump is in trouble unless he starts showing a bit more humility and focus (not a lot, but a little). Copying the meaningless platitudes of Biden would be a good start. Control the wild tweets and tie Joe Biden to the radical left - relentlessly.

I think you give Trumps campaign way too much ability in your ideas.
At the moment the strategy is to appear on networks giving train wreck interviews.Mind you, when you employ your unqualified children and their unqualified partners to run things it should work well shouldn’t it?

Interesting.
In the European Union, 63% have put a ban on mailing in ballots except for citizens living overseas. Another 22% have imposed a ban even for those overseas. And most of those that allow mail-in ballots require some form of photo ID to get one, according to the report from the Crime Prevention Research Center shared with Secrets. “These countries have learned the hard way about what happens when mail-in ballots aren’t secured. They have also discovered how hard it is to detect vote buying when both those buying and selling the votes have an incentive to hide the exchange,” said author John R. Lott, the center’s president.

You realize that Trump is all for mail in votes in states where they benefit him right?
He potentially fucked up big time in Florida turning his own supporters against mail voting in a state where a lot of rep votes are made that way (including his own).
Maybe someone should have made him a four colour bar chart? -
"Whether you call it Vote by Mail or Absentee Voting, in Florida the election system is Safe and Secure, Tried and True. Florida’s Voting system has been cleaned up (we defeated Democrats attempts at change), so in Florida I encourage all to request a Ballot & Vote by Mail! #MAGA"
So in other words, Vote by Mail is Bad and ought to be illegal unless it's being done by Republicans in which case it is excellent and to be encouraged. He is suing to stop absentee voting in Democrat-leaning Nevada at the same time as he is encouraging it in Republican-leaning Florida. He's really draining that swamp.

What a dangerous road to lead a country down.
When I spoke with my strongly Republican friend last weekend, they were all piss and vinegar about How he’s right blah blah blah. They don’t seem to get that - at some stage - the Dems will get back in power, and then any door that has been opened By Trump can be used by them.
It’s the same silliness that Dems didn’t get about using executive orders to govern.
That country. Holy shit.

I said the same thing to my US family about Obama using drones to kill people without congress approval, and to spy on US citizens. My exact wording is you might like this guy, but what about the next guy.

Whats this all about?
🚨🚨 POTUS: "I have a lot of enemies out there. This may be the last time you see me for a while... a lot of very, very rich enemies, but they are not happy with what I'm doing but I figure we have one chance to do it and no other President is gonna do what I do.."

He's full of shit and you need to stop slurping the Kool Aid. Trump recently warned that Biden will take away your guns and he is against God and the Bible.
Biden is a practicing Roman Catholic who regularly attends church, despite his little show a couple of months ago Donald Trump is not a member of any church in Washington DC or anywhere apparently

I wouldn't read much into it. When Trump starts a sentence at the moment I don't think he knows how he's going to end it or what words he'll use.
