    I think that to renew my faith in America, I wanted to see a total rejection of Trump and everything he stands for.  Biden will probably win but knowing that this many Americans think Trump should be the leader of the free world makes me think that America has truly lost its way and this great experiment is past its expiration date.

    It probably cannot be said in a more succinct way than this. I am not upset, but knowing this many people have seen what he has done and still want more of it is a sign we have damage as a country that may take an entire generation to repair. We have so many broken human beings right now. That part is pretty sad. Those folks are voting for a con man leading a cult and so many know better than to do this, but do not care.

    There are plenty of conservatives that are assholes, just as there are on the other side of the aisle. The majority of both sides are decent people that vote along party lines in reality, even if they're not particularly thrilled with their candidate. The real question is independents, how they're convinced to vote for either of these crummy candidates I can't say.

    Looking at a majority of people like they're assholes, no matter which side you support, is a horrible way to go through life and not an accurate representation. Assholes are everywhere and probably account for just...10-15% of the country lol.

    At a certain point the voting on party lines thing is thrown out the window. If you are voting for Trump at this point there is something broken in you as a human being. No one is getting the excuse of just voting for the party when it is this guy they are voting for.

    Don't die bro.

    I should be alright. It’s a festive atmosphere right now. I mean that can always change, but it is peaceful thus far. Bunch of singing and dancing with someone playing This Land is Your Land right now!

  4. I think it’s about time to head up the street and have some fun. I decided to stay at a hotel right by Lafayette Square Park so I wouldn’t have to go far at the end of the night. Not expecting to see many Trumpkins here, but I am sure there will be some. I have seen plenty of folks so far that I can tell spent the summer protesting judging by what they were wearing when I was out earlier.

    DB is probably more freaked over the thought of Liz as Sec of Treasury than anything.

    ”knock, knock.”

    ”who’s there”

    ”finCEN”

    ”finCEN who?”

    ”you’re finCEN to get turned inside out.”

    Yep.  There needs to be a Deutsche Bank-focused guillotine when all is said and done.

    That's every Trump rally.  Its two hours of stream of consciousness.  He probably only has 20 minutes of prepared material - the rest is him just going off on these wild tangents.  He literally says whatever pops into his little monkey brain in that moment.

     

    And the fucking idiots that would spend their day at one of his propaganda events eat it up.

    I was going to say the same thing. His stream-of-consciousness is insane, but it’s a heckuva treasure trove for psychologists to analyze for year to come.

    I assume Mexico is paying. Congrats to Bunker Bitch for finally getting his wall. 

    Awesome! Looks like I’ll have somewhere to hang a wreath at while I’m there on Tuesday night.

    Show me a 1st world country with a powerful well funded and well trained military went into anything even resembling a "conflict zone".

    Wanna take any wild guesses as to why you can't name one?

    We won’t have any all-out civil war and it is largely because of the military we have. 
     

    Also because even absent that modern Americans are pretty lazy and our creature comforts are not worth giving up.
