I wish I could share some of you guys' optimism post November if Trump loses, but I just cant.

In my opinion, we will not only see this Country fall to a level of chaos not seen for generations (if ever) but the world will most likely see a nuclear device detonated somewhere. Its what happens when no leadership and self interest prevail over the common good. But again, maybe thats thier goal. Look at how far down the hole we have slipped in just the past 4 years...nevermind the past 8 or 10 or 15. Realize how it has accellerated. Then look ahead if you can.

The Rinos see it as an opportunity to enrich themselves on the coattails of the results. The libs look at it as the chance to build the perfect society. (With them in charge of course.)

Sorry to sound so tinfoil and negative. I just dont see the next decade or two (or beyond) with much promise. I will keep plodding on however regardless. Fuck them.

1. There are 27 days until the election. 27 days is a lifetime in a political election year. So much will happen between now and November 8th. Don't let anything happening today get you too high or too low. It will change several times over the next 27 days.

2. Although it isn't yet obvious, we are witnessing the birth of a new political party right in front of our eyes. Whether Trump wins or loses won't stop it. The day of the GOP as we've known it since the time of Lincoln has ended. There is going to be one helluva struggle between now and 2020 to reshape the political landscape and it could be very ugly. We live in interesting times.


Im curious as to what will fill the gap on no. 2?

Something with two or more functioning neurons and a spine would be an improvement and a welcome change.

I don't care if he is running against the devil herself. I will never support anyone who is currently helping Hillary win the presidency.


My participation in 2020 in any elections is TBD. Whatever new party arises from the ashes of the GOP will determine my interest. Ryan is so full of shit if he thinks he can get elected. I won't vote for him.

Cast my vote for Trump this morning; even voted for "little Marco" on the down ballot. All that's now left is the victory dance.

The Republican Party is going the same way as the Whig Party from which it had its origins.

The Whigs descended into internal factionalism after the Election of 1852 over the issue of slavery. Members joined the short-lived Know-Nothings, American, Opposition, and Constitutional-Union parties. The Republican Party formerly established itself in 1854.

The Jacksonian Democrat-Republican Party split into Northern and Southern versions also over the slavery issue.

The result of all this internal factionalism was evident during the Election of 1860 with a 4-way race (Republican-Abraham Lincoln; Northern Democrats-Stephan Douglas; Southern Democrats-John C. Breckenridge; John Bell-Constitutional/Union). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wik...ntial_election,_1860

What will come from this election? It's anybody's guess.

I think fragmentation like that is possible. Not probable, but possible. It may be for the best. There would be parties more closely aligned with people's sets of beliefs, rather than two sizes fit all parties.

But the reason I think it is not probable is that our majority system (as opposed to a parliamentary one) has an inexorable tendency to create two parties. So the GOP will resist fragmentation.

What is increasingly becoming my concern is the following: I have absolutely zero doubt that under anything CLOSE to being a fair election Trump would win easily. I however believe that the upcoming fraud may easily be 25% handily. Being able to overcome that would be nearly impossible. If "they" are willing to go to this length, then it should leave little doubt the same people would not blink an eye with anything else down the road. Not. A. Blink.

Explain how 25% of the votes could be fraud without being detected. In detail. Specifics.

Now that the Trump "scandal" is passing, it seem like Clinton's wiki leaks are getting a tiny bit of traction.

The counter-punching continues. The Daily Mail releases article about Trump/Howard Stern talking about Ivanka in a less-than-flattering manner.

Wikileaks releases an email outlining Qatar/Saudi underground support for ISIL and Hillary's knowledge of this.

Damn, I am tired of this campaign.

She's constantly hearing all the crap the MSM is putting out against him because she turns on the TV and watches network news in the mornings before work, and that's 50% of what they have to "report" on each morning!

At one point I had her convinced to at least vote against Hitlery, but now she's changed her mind again. She keeps saying she refuses to be "bullied" into voting for somebody like Trump. All I can do now is tell her to keep her mouth shut after the elections are over as she will have no right to complain over what we get!!! Mad

Needless to say, I'm pissed!!!


I'm sorry to hear this. My wife likes Trump, but hates Pence. I like Pence but dislike Trump.

But in the end, we'll both vote for Trump/Pence on Nov 8th.

Who really knows the number but it is more rampant than we know.

Detected? Oh I have no doubt fraud will be detected. I also have no doubt that it will not be prosecuted.

CNN just had a GOP "strategist" who doing what he never thought possible. Voting for Hillary.

"If you'd told me last year I'd be voting for Hillary, I'd tell you to take it back. If you told me a second time, we'd take it outside."

Roll Eyes

Uh huh.

BTW, the video was down so they did it by phone. I'm guessing CNN got some intern on the phone to play the role of this "strategist" (who, of course, had a southern accent).

Look, he may have been the real deal, and if so, he'll never work again.

In the last Presidential election. In Port Saint Lucie County, FL. 138% of the entire population voted. That has to be easily 50% fraudulent votes in that county AND it was not the only county with results like that. I think (can't remember) 99% of the votes in St. Louis were Democrat, also highly impossible.

The Trump rally in Ocala has started. Trump should be on stage in about 15 minutes.

Your wife didn't intend to vote in the first place.

True... at first she didn't because "there wasn't anyone she felt good about voting for" (her words, not mine). I eventually convinced her, or so I thought, to vote AGAINST Hillary, but now she has backtracked on that and will abstain from voting for a president. She claims she will still vote for all the other offices, just not that one... Roll Eyes

Edit to add: I also can't get her to comprehend the math behind the failure to cast a vote AGAINST being just about the same as voting FOR! She would never vote FOR Klinton, yet she refuses to vote AGAINST! She would also willingly vote for a 3rd party candidate if there were one, which of course would just be splitting the votes and taking away ones that could give the win to Trump! I've tried over and over to explain the math, and she responds with an "I don't believe it!" What the hell is there to not believe?!?
Its not a bit about the candidate she feels good about, its for the sake of the Country, hanging on to what is Ours, Freedom and maybe just maybe, changing the structure of Our all f'd up Government, for Our future. People need to stop with the selfish shit, grow up, dig in Our heels and back the man. We are not getting any candy coated anything from Government. Of the 2, we have 1 who is good for Us.
