I am still nervous. They say a mother forgets the pain of childbirth, but us progressives will never forget the agony of four years ago.
(yeah i know, the house breaks out in riotous applause. Grrr.. )
But when my objective, rational brain kicks in and i look at the detailed indications and trends - i reckon Trump will probably be in for more of a hiding that even most of us "socialists" ( ) hope for..
And subjectively, I just don't think Americans will get sucked in by Trump in the numbers they did last time around.
You can be repelled by the Clintons and disgusted with the Washington elites - but four years of seeing how this clown operates is going to remove the veil of blind desperate hope for many of his first-time voters.
And others will have seen thru how he is destroying that great nation with irreparable division.
They will be looking for a healer, not more of the wrecker.
Of course the chaotic voting shambles and the realities of Covid-19 spiralling out of control this week could totally flock things up.
.just my analysis
(My own preference is dictated by who will best work with other South/SE/East Asian nations to form an effective counter block to China in this region.
Like virtually all the political, defence, intell and security heads in free Asia - I hold no hope whatsoever in Trump for that.
They ^^ all see him as a catastrophe waiting to happen in this part of the planet - and totally ignorant of the realities. Fact.)

An estimated 57,000 people turned up to a trump rally in Pennsylvania yesterday according to the secret service.
The polls are totally totally wrong, people will crawl over broken glass to vote for Trump,... the same really can't be said for Biden, who often has more trump supporters outside his rallys mocking him.

I'm no fan of Trump but I can easily see him winning again. Biden has no charisma, vitality or anything much going for him. The last election pitted an awful, utterly charmless and unlikable candidate against Trump, now they have picked a semi-coherent guy who seems to be suffering from dementia. Even Reagan seemed semi-coherent until he got shot. George W seemed like a complete moron at times but had a coherent policy, even when he was moving in illegal directions. Anther 4 years of Trump is something you'l;l just have to get used to. Biden will be lucky if he doesn't corpse it in the next 6 months.

The store fronts are being boarded up all over USA in anticipation of rioting. They should get sandbags too - to protect against the impending tsunami of liberal tears. Lots of new memes will be created by hairy nosed liberals (who learned nothing) pissing themselves with their heads popping off and howling at the moon. Fools!
I like President Trump.
I understand waking from 'the matrix' is difficult for some.
Trump will win.

So when, our time, do we get to see the results coming in? CNN will run it live?

I don't like Trump. He is a buffoon. How can anyone like such a liar? Nothing he says is true. He is 100% bluster. He is ignorant, a racist, a business failure... He is the absolute worst of the worst... He is the ruination of democracy in America. Anyone who "likes" him must be racist, bigoted, and misogynistic. That's America, I guess... No thanks...
Realize why Trump is so desperate not to lose... If he loses, he will go on trial for sexual assault and for other crimes. Continuing on as president, he clings to his immunities and authoritarian unaccountability. He resembles an old school petty dictator of old South America: a truly distasteful throwback to a lower form of human incivility and political-social totalitarianism... No thanks...

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/21/nyre ... stein.htmlPresident Trump’s return to the White House podium on Tuesday to discuss the coronavirus pandemic took an unusual detour when he offered warm words for Ghislaine Maxwell, who is facing federal charges of helping Jeffrey Epstein recruit, groom and sexually abuse girls.
Mr. Trump’s comment about Ms. Maxwell, who was arrested in New Hampshire this month and is being held without bail in a federal jail in Brooklyn, came in response to a reporter’s question about whether he expected her to go public with the names of powerful men who have been accused in lawsuits of taking part in the sex-trafficking ring that Mr. Epstein allegedly ran.
“I don’t know,” Mr. Trump said. “I haven’t really been following it too much. I just wish her well, frankly.”
“I’ve met her numerous times over the years, especially since I lived in Palm Beach, and I guess they lived in Palm Beach,” the president continued, referring to the Florida town where his Mar-a-Lago resort is and where Mr. Epstein had a home. “But I wish her well, whatever it is.”
