Tracker Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 Trump Insists On Pretending To Be President Again By Holding Rallies In Front Of Fake Air Force One He cannot help it. Trump believes that the more “rich” and “powerful” his entrance is, the more powerful he looks. Perhaps to his crowd, it is true, although it wouldn’t matter if it wasn’t. It is true for Trump, and that is what matters. Just like the President of the United States lands with the powerful and mighty symbolism of the United States’ Air Force One lands, Trump now has to do the best he can. It is literally called Trump Force One: blue_gold_84 and Mark F 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Republicans know when more people vote It's bad for the right wing agenda so rather than change to appeal to more people they are simply trying to make it harder for people to vote.

J We've come to the point where you can walk around freely in-person/virtual spewing contradictions, blatant lies, morally ethically bankrupt statements with little pushback and consequences (twitter shaming, fact checks that do nothing, 'journalists' who lightly push back but then say lets move on, politicians who bang their hands on the podium and that's about it) but huge impact for their own grifting power needs. I can't believe I'm saying this but maybe it will be good for these wacknut morally corrupt lunatics to take power so people can actually see what happens that will then lead to a correction and recalibration.

Just hope the foundation stays in tact. But, once they take power, they won't let go of it. The last 30 years has been the GOP entrenching themselves to make it impossible to oust them. They've created laws and imposed judges that will throw out two hundred years of legal precedent to own Libs. They attempted a ****ing COUP and still nothing!!! Neutral media has no idea what to do.

Wideleft Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 From the WaPo: Snowfall could hinder in-person vote in Nevada’s Republican strongholds Return to menu By Robert Klemko Counties north and west of Las Vegas — where Republican allegiances are strongest in Nevada — are being blanketed with snowfall and freezing rain Tuesday. After some Republicans in the state encouraged supporters to shun voting by mail in favor of voting on Election Day as a means of ensuring their votes are counted, several candidates changed their tune in recent days, urging early voting in advance of the storm. Research is mixed on whether and how bad weather affects voter turnouts. blue_gold_84 and JCon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
