Saw a guy with a slung AR and an American flag in his hands standing on top of his Jeep along the side of the road, Trump flag hanging off the Jeep. These people have loving brain worms in this death cult. Not to mention all the lifted trucks in Lacey/Puyallup sporting 2-4 flags.

Here's an image of a stupidly long chud-parade that genuinely has me worried for tomorrow.

Oh god, I said "tomorrow".


Anyone care to napkin math that amount of chuds? Seems like not that many for a rally. But for how many people actually go buy the flags for Trump, that's a ton of idiots that go buy a 30$ flag. It's really just a club for these old people

Crazy how close that is to where I live in Tacoma where there isn't any Trump poo poo.

Lacey and Puyallup seem to me to mostly be military families from JBLM.

I'm poll watching out in East Redneckistan tomorrow. I expect it to be pretty quiet, hopefully the polls close on time, and I can go home and drown my anxieties in beer.
Wife and I have decided that if Trump wins reelection we are probably going to start hoarding money to relocate, my company has offices all over the EU, so I'm sure I can beg my way into one. If we can't go do overseas, then we are gonna look at moving into New England, at least then we can sneak into Canada easier!!!

Folks, I’m starting to think that “we can’t indict a sitting president” was bad policy.

It's a political position, so the remedy has to be political. Congress can remove the president, voters can reshape Congress halfway through the first term, and eventually voters get to vote again on the President. There's good reason for preventing a possible coup by law enforcement.

The underlying problem is that neither presidential nor congressional elections are truly small d democratic in the US.

CVS has an option for Mounted Photo panels, there 14.99 for 8x10, less for other sizes, but used next30 for 30% off. Used Wikipedia for high resolution and high quality photos of Sherman’s Portrait and The Peacemakers, and then just uploaded it to the cvs app and picked it up about 2 hours later.

Also used a $5 coupon I had and got both for like $17. Great for also printing out memes or screen caps from the Simpsons.

Problems look mighty small from 150 miles up.

I don't know if it's exhaustion after four years of this stuff but it just doesn't feel like there's an actual Presidential election happening tomorrow. Maybe it's from already voting a few weeks back, or the months of Covid isolation, or the fact that we've still got Trump for another two months regardless of the outcome, it just seems unreal somehow.

He would never have been president without twitter as a platform.

No seriously,

He never would have gotten traction for his birther poo poo, which means obama would not have dunked on him at the correspondents dinner.

Twitter is the perfect platform for someone who cannot string more than two sentences together.

Instead he would have gotten a grift as a fox news talking head. And failed at it.

He would have considered “talking head” to be beneath his station.

I feel the same way. It’s just another saga in a long line of 2020 sagas, from COVID to having federal LEOs terrorizing DC and other cities to COVID again to now. Just another drop in the bucket although this one could be the deluge we’ve been bracing for.

He wouldn't have gotten billions in free press from all the news networks reading his tweets. If he had to rely on traditional means of messaging he would have quit early in the primary.

Sure.

96 miles * 5280 feet per mile is 506880 feet. Figure an average of, say, 20 feet per vehicle and you've got 25,344 chuds, 50K if you wanna be generous and assume ~2 people per car.

There are over four and a quarter million registered voters in Arizona.

Although I'm already so restless, I'm not sure I'll actually be able to fall asleep without having a couple of beers or diphenhydramine.

If Trump wins tomorrow, I think I'm gonna stay away from booze for a bit.
