Seems like a lot of really nasty things are coming to a head.

I fully expect the Trump people to attack Biden on his hugging women. Theyre going to do their best to turn him into some sort of rapist. It doesnt matter that Trump is actually The rapist.
I just hope all the women Trump has wronged come forward. This is their chance.

I already didn't think he could win in a fair election.

(6,011 posts)They don't really give a damn about Trump outside of any effect he has on the party's chances.
The GOP is very sweaty and desperate right now.

(2,186 posts)Attack Biden for "cognitive issues"---Trump's mind is clearly shot.
Attack Biden for hugging people? ---Trump is an Epstein perv.
Attack Biden cuz his son got a job? --- All his kids are reaping huge rewards, as is he, illegally.
Biden is a normal, caring man experienced in running things properly. Trump is a con man.

(5,324 posts)With over 90% of people have their minds already made up, and Biden showing a nice lead. Not many undecided voters left. Trump's going to have to pull some shit to change the game. But he's been playing defense all the way. The Atlantic story puts him even more on defense. I'm sure they are saving their best material for the end game to counter whatever surprises trump has in store, like a fake vaccine announcement. Anything can hapoen, and we don't have it in the bag yet, but I like where we're sitting right now.

(18,130 posts)You've forgotten that trump is a cult leader and his followers refuse to believe anything bad about him. I've been seeing far right wing loons saying the Atlantic story was false. This will be a fight to the end.
BTW, I still think Biden will win, but it won't be easy.

Don't hold back. As long as you have the facts on your side, don't hold back.

(1,584 posts)Its the week for any Republican, especially Senators, to break ranks to avoid defeat. If they dont, its because they are confident that the rigging will work.

(856 posts)With so many mail-in votes expected plus the need to do it early since they showed their hand with the USPS foul ups, a LOT of people will be voting in late September or early October. The old time frames no longer apply for a large section of the population.
DeJoy fucked up. He showed his hand in mid-July while there was still plenty of time to spread the word that folks need to mail in their ballots as early as possible. A late October vaccine announcement will be too late too so they may have shot themselves in the foot twice. Hopefully that was one shot in each foot so they have to crawl out of the White House.
