There are a not insignificant number of people who think that Trump's speeches have actually gotten BETTER compared to 2016. We are in a parody. Just now, youngestson said: An explanation I heard from a news editor was that Trump's decline isn't a story because his supporters don't care about it. What you get when News becomes an entertainment media. Well, also because Trump has always been seen aa somewhat of a clown, so they don't see this latest stuff as evidence as much, especially compared to a serious pol like Biden 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nate Silver is a right wing funded hack. Nope. I think it's a shame that the GOP voting base is so far gone that it decided to overwhelmingly nominate this clown again. And swing voters, mainly for the reasons that both you AND Nate cited, are going to put him over the top. I don't blame anyone for fearing the worst about Trump 2.0, especially after 1/6/21, but I try to be hopeful that things won't turn out too bad.

But the media in this country long ago abandoned that principle, which is why we have so many misinformed voters. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergasun Posted Sunday at 09:37 PM Share Posted Sunday at 09:37 PM I think this is the type of loser stunt that should turn voters off. Unfortunately, I am not this typical voter. .

China Posted Sunday at 11:31 PM Share Posted Sunday at 11:31 PM Oregon elections office to restart phone lines after surge of calls about Trump missing from voters’ pamphlet The Oregon Elections Division is resuming phone operations shortly after shutting down all calls due to an overwhelming surge of out-of-state callers complaining that Donald Trump is not in the Oregon Voters’ Pamphlet. On Thursday, the elections office told KOIN 6 News the callers had been responding to false information about why the former president did not appear in the pamphlet, including social media rumors making election interference claims. However, the Oregon Secretary of State’s office said the decision for Trump’s omission was actually made by his own campaign when it did not submit a statement or pay the required $3,500 to appear in the pamphlet. “The Trump campaign chose not to participate. It was not an omission by officials. Trump/Vance will still be on your ballot,” the Oregon Secretary of State’s office wrote in a post on social media last week. Over the weekend, the office will begin accepting voicemails which will be screened for “specific, answerable questions about the election.” “Our phones are back up, but in this case, it would be more accurate to say that we will be screening voicemails,” said Laura Kerns with the Secretary of State’s office. “At this time, we plan to fully reopen Monday.” Click on the link for the full article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
China Posted Sunday at 11:40 PM Share Posted Sunday at 11:40 PM The Very Real Scenario Where Trump Loses and Takes Power Anyway Four years ago, a sitting president — rejected by American voters — attempted to seize a second term anyway, plunging the nation into confusion, conflict and, in its last gasp, violence. Now, Donald Trump’s political comeback has revived a sense of dread among the officials and institutions who stood in his way last time: Could it happen again? Dozens of interviews with people deeply familiar or involved with the election process point to a clear consensus: Not only could Trump make a second attempt at overturning an election he loses, he and his allies are already laying the groundwork. 2024 is not 2020. Trump’s path to pulling it off this time is even narrower and more extreme. For one thing, Trump lacks some of the tools he threatened to wield four years ago to upend the transfer of power; today, the military and Justice Department answer to Joe Biden. Trump also needs allies to win elections that would put them in a position to reverse a defeat. Overturning a Kamala Harris victory would require an enormous amount of help from Republican power brokers in statehouses and Congress, some of whom spurned him four years ago. Trump’s first attempt to exploit the neglected machinery of American democracy also spurred real action by congressional Democrats. Updates to the Electoral Count Act in the wake of Trump’s 2020 gambit aimed to bind vote counters, election officials and even Congress to the results certified by state governments, all of which makes it tougher, in theory, to steal an election. The answer, according to lawmakers, congressional investigators, party operatives, election officials and constitutional law experts, goes something like this: He will deepen distrust in the election results by making unsupported or hyperbolic claims of widespread voter fraud and mounting longshot lawsuits challenging enough ballots to flip the outcome in key states. He will lean on friendly county and state officials to resist certifying election results — a futile errand that would nevertheless fuel a campaign to put pressure on elected Republican legislators in statehouses and Congress. He will call on allies in GOP-controlled swing-state legislatures to appoint “alternate” presidential electors. He will rely on congressional Republicans to endorse these alternate electors — or at least reject Democratic electors — when they convene to certify the outcome. He will try to ensure Harris is denied 270 votes in the Electoral College, sending the election to the House, where Republicans are likely to have the numbers to choose Trump as the next president.

Fergasun Posted Monday at 12:04 AM Share Posted Monday at 12:04 AM @China I mean we had the very real scenario where Gore won Florida, but lost the election. Based on current legal position.... the December deadline set but SCOTUS was bs. They could have had a "Bush Slate" and a "Gore Slate". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
