By sundown tonight, the word will be out to all in MAGAville... your word to use in every setting is "cure." Go forth.

thesloppy 10-09-2020 11:41 AM

It's too bad Melania didn't get any of that cure.

I assume she's thinking of any time in quarantine as a guaranteed vacation from everything going on, and she's going to take the opposite of Donald's approach & will probably 'remain at home' until the absolute last minute possible.

Florida voter registration won’t be extended; judge rips state

Hey Judge Walker, watch the disrespect.

Our state leadership actually wants to safely put people safely on the moon. So there.:banghead:

So we're killing Chris Christe for the fun of it?

spleen1015 10-09-2020 11:52 AM

I think it is pretty obvious that Donny Boy is still testing positive. They won't tell us when he tested negative the last, but they'll tell us when Pence is negative.

Heard today he is still in the hospital but for cautionary reasons. Must be nice to get a 5 day hospital stay when most other people get sent home and told to only come back when you can't breath.

I.e. on health care they view that as a step backwards, a loss of liberty, continued progress towards government over-reach, European-style socialism lite, apologized for America non-stop, had a feckless foreign policy, and so forth.


Again, just nonsense issues they pretend to care about.

Obama was incredibly tough on immigration. Deported more than Bush and saw returns way down. Race relations would seem to be worse electing a white supremacist. And police was one of the only things that Obama didn't cut from his budget (in fact they got a hefty increase in funding).

Shit, the health care plan he put in place was the conservative plan from the 90's.

And the constitution stuff is most comical considering who is in office right now. Or maybe those portions of the constitution don't count?

Just talked to a friend who told me a mutual friend and her husband voted Trump and I am shook. This is someone I would never thought supported him. educated school teacher with a young daughter. The emotion I felt was similar to when you fond out someone cheated on their spouse that you would never expect to do something like that.

While I realize it is purely anecdotal it makes me question if there is more to the silent majority than I originally thought.

What I have noticed in my area, there is a much bigger groundswell for Biden than there was for Hillary. However, with Trump, most of the supporters here are underground.

Walking the dog around the neighborhood last night. Saw 2 Biden signs, none for Trump. However, there were Trump signs last time around. I do suspect the Trump supporters are underground.

This contrasts with a car trip I took to a town further north. I must have seen 8-10 Trump signs on my 80 mile trip around 2 lane roads.

albionmoonlight 10-09-2020 01:19 PM

There are a lot more Biden signs and Trump signs in my neighborhood this year than there were either Clinton or Trump signs in 2016.

albionmoonlight 10-09-2020 01:20 PM

Weirdly, I don't recall any of the Trump signs referencing Pence.

Jas_lov 10-09-2020 01:24 PM

There are quite a few Biden and Trump signs here. About even of both, maybe a couple more Biden. I think I saw one or two Hillary signs in 2016 and a few Trump signs. There definitely seems to be more engagement this year if yard signs are an indicator. I've never understood putting them in your yard except to draw attention to yourself. Everybody knows who Trump and Biden are.

Atocep 10-09-2020 01:26 PM

The house we bought in June sits in Trump country Washington. Previously we lived in the stereotypical hyper liberal, hipster Washington town but we can't drive a mile without seeing a Trump flag or sticker on someone's vehicle or in the yard now.

My wife stopped to get take out at a small pub and grill and said she got multiple eye rolls when people would walk in and see her with a mask on. The staff all had masks on but everyone else would take their mask off as soon as they walked in the door.

QuikSand 10-09-2020 01:27 PM

“If you fuck around with us, if you do something bad to us, we are gonna do things to you that have never been done before.”

I honestly don't object to rough language, I'm guilty of more than my share of it. Maybe this is a deliberate tactic for the last weeks, down a couple touchdowns, so to speak.

Anyway... it's a new twist. If nothing else, might well get people talking about something other than how many Americans are needlessly dead from covid, or whether he should be removed from office for _________, or whatever series of his crimes and misdemeanors might have otherwise occupied the news cycle.

"He tells it like it is." Yup.

albionmoonlight 10-09-2020 01:29 PM

Hmmm. F-bomb as distraction. I can see it.

Of course, calling into talk radio and dropping F-bombs probably doesn't slow down the "is this guy OK, like, medically OK in the head?" talk.

Thomkal 10-09-2020 01:42 PM

In 2016, there was no Hillary signs in my neighborhood or any main highway here in Myrtle. Still no Biden signs on the highways, but there is a small number of them now in the neighborhood and growing. No Graham or Harrison signs at all.

This county has been pretty dominant Republican with all the retirees moving here. I'll be curious to see the numbers this year. More and more families living here now than in 2016, with new housing everywhere you turn. It still likely will go for Trump, but it should be closer for Biden this year,

Ben E Lou 10-09-2020 02:13 PM

Just checked the registrations of the two largest streets in my neighborhood. They total 75 R, 39 D, 61 I. You can check your area here: Attention Required! | Cloudflare
Still not a single Trump sign in the neighborhood--not a ton of any kind, but in the last few days, I've noticed two more households and one more business have put up Tillis/Forest/LocalRepublican combos, but with Teh Donald noticeably absent. Trump won my precinct in 2016, 59-36.

Interesting. I put in my and neighbor's address and it came back with "no records found at this address" (I know I voted and know I am registered to vote).

Did you have to put in all your neighbor's addresses to get the info or did it summarize it for you?

It's only good for about a third of the states (go to the front page of the site). For instance, I can't check as Texas isn't one

Thanks.

GA is not one of the states.

whomario 10-09-2020 02:45 PM

Question : Didn't Trump say he was done negotiating re: Stimulus/Covid Aid ? Why is he now back to it ? (Aside from every adviser likely explaining to him how stupid his decision was)

That's the one way ro get him to do things, at least some of the time (until he figures out the flipside, like with Covid testing)

So I got my absentee ballot in the mail today finally. Now then where is that box for Trump...:)

GrantDawg 10-09-2020 02:58 PM

Pompeo saya he has Clinton's emails and is going to release them. I had to check the calendar and make sure we are not back in 2016. I guess if you don't have anything else, all you can do is go back to the one that brought you. "But her emails!"

If you are going to vote for Trump, make sure you fill in every circle. He is such a big winner, you have to check every box. If you vote for Biden, you check the one by Biden's name.

I'm sure they will get her on that pesky Benghazi affair finally!!

Ben E Lou 10-09-2020 03:06 PM

Heh. All I had to put in was my street name and zip code, not even an address, and it pulled the whole street. I remembered an street name from an exit in Charlotte, and here's what it pulled:

On this, Christina Applegate made a good point. "If they were security risks, then how could they be released?" It is almost like the whole investigation was disingenuous or something.

You do realize that if we made a video, said this, then ended with "I am Donald J Trump, and I approve this message" there would legit be people that sent back ballots with every circle filled in :)

True. We'd probably also probably be charged with a felony.
