(51,590 posts)I am sure he would whip out his soapbox to stand on and sell his latest version of a miracle concoction cure-all, and at a very reasonable price which you can't live without. And he will have the same level of deplorables spending every last cent to obtain this magic elixir which will cure cancer and make them wealthy at the same time. Lord, it IS a miracle. The Donald is my savior! Hallelujah!

Or ever will be.
That's why they could roar with laughter.

Best Christian ever goes to church every sunday. Ex mi!itary ex VA. Nice pensions. Also has disability though she is able bodied and very active. This is an example of how difficult it is to maintain friendships in these circumstances.

(17,276 posts)He knows what he's doing. He's drawing time and attention away from the stories he doesn't want the media to cover. Works every time. Even on DU we are spending the time thinking and talking about it. Don't take the bait.
I wish the media would react something like this: "The President gave another campaign rally today, but back at the White House..."

(5,810 posts)We can organize, round up voters, register folks, canvas our neighborhoods, give people rides to vote and yell our name from the roof tops, but if the Russians interfere with the elections like they did in 2016, it wont matter. Our intel experts have warned us repeatedly that they did it before and have every intention of doing it again. And you can bet they are meddling to make sure their side wins.
We need to be pushing for investigation or examination of the voting apparatus and it needs to be happening now. Dirty tricks and fake news are going on now. Attention on Election eve or day will be too late. It may be too late now, but we need assurances that all those votes are counted correctly.
tRump has been emboldened and he continues to be louder and uglier than ever. And it is because he has been assured by Putin that he can relax, the fix is in. He really could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and no one would flinch. Well, SOME of us might , but this election is still set in his favor. (I know his name isnt on the ballot this time but the election will seal our fates with the final takeover and imbalance of power.)
So while I appreciate and completely understand the need for every vote we can get, it wont matter if the Russians make sure they are not counted fairly. Our intel people warned us before the 2016 election that there was something foul going on and yet a sizeable majority of us were stunned at the outcome. Let us at least address the Russian interference in 2018 and see if we can stop that from happening again. We all know what is at stake, dont we??
