(42,714 posts)I Would love to see one huge BLUE TSUNAMI for Kamala and Trump being so far behind, its impossible for him to say he won the election with a straight face. In my head, I can see Kamala winning but knowing what happened last time he got into office, I was terrified the entire time. Now even more so, and can picture Cops coming to my apartment and saying GET the fuck out, we are deporting you out of this country ... and no you don't get a choice,, your going to BEIJING...

(222,072 posts)Hiring firms to investigate the 2020 election, launching lawsuits (he lost 61 out of 62), he still insisted he "won by a landslide" even though his closest advisors told him that he lost - he stubbornly refused to accept it though he obviously knew. His last ditch effort was to force Mike Pence to throw out the electors that he was only supposed to count in his ceremonial role as president of the Senate - and his refusal is what resulted in the violence of January 6th. And, has been said, the advisors who told him the truth are long gone - and he's now only surrounded by those willing to lie and cheat for him, pursuing their own agendas.
If only he'd been tried and convicted in a timely manner for his unprecedented and illegal actions on January 6th - or if his lies had been shut down beforehand, but the "peaceful transfer of power" has never failed before in our history, even in Bush* v Gore. I'm just hoping that his illegal actions this time around have been anticipated and planned for.

(6,254 posts)People are waking up and realising:
1. Their current way of life, warts and all, isn't guaranteed and could get worse very dramatically and very suddenly.
2. Some of the things being voted on are actually relevant to them personally.
3. Voting is important.
If you must go through life half asleep, at least wake up for a bit, think about things and actually vote!
