Biden could actually win

[Audie]

I'm just not that optimistic.

He won in my state, which is just embarrassing. That this even a close election is embarrassing. Just like last time, only one of the candidates is actually qualified. I don't mind that some folks vote Republican, but I do mind if someone votes Republican when the candidate put forth is a psychopathic narcissist. Let's just free all the criminals from jail since we're apparently OK with not holding one accountable in the highest office of the land, kay? At least be consistent.

The psychopath bit is kind of like biblical numbers, said for effect, not
accuracy.

As a so-called 'person of colour" (dont you dare call me that) I think I
am if anything, hypersensitive to racism.

Not that you mentioned that among the trump -complaints, but its a frequent charge.

As in 2016, the oft repeated thing that "birther" is a racist lie--which it is neither.

Am I dumb, or can you or anyone demonstrate racism from trump that I cannot find?

Last election Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan were won by Republicans; Nevada was the only battleground state that was won by the Democrats.

How likely is it that Trump again wins 5 out of these 6 ?

Could Biden win Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan and Nevada ?

Pennsylvania and Georgia go to Trump ?

If Biden gets 3 out of 6 and Trump gets 3 out of 6 then it depends on postal vote which is generally Democrat . Am I correct ?

What if Biden gets only 2 out of 6 and Trump gets 4 out of 6: can the postal vote still win it for Biden ?

Without the mail-in ballots Biden loses. It just goes to show that many people, like Biden, are lazy and "sleepy". They'd rather mail it in then get off their *** and go to the booth.

I am not convinced that Trump is a racist. But he is certainly on the police side when it comes to blacks.

But I have no evidence that he Rates any one of any race, whether they support him or not.
It is all about him.

Oh, if only that were the case.

"The first part of the answer to that question is obvious: we will use the Hare Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R). Just to remind you of its bona fides, the PCL-R is the cornerstone for a deep and wide-ranging understanding of possible psychopathic individuals. Any diagnosis derived from it is based on an extensive empirical foundation, painstakingly constructed over the past 40 years by studies of the construct of psychopathy.

Thirty-two (32) is a serious number for this instrument. Thirty-two means you are a 1%. Recall that the mean number for male prisoners is 22(!). So, yeah, 32 is substantial. In law enforcement vernacular, an individual with this score would be termed a “stone-cold psychopath."

I didn't caucus for Biden and he wasn't my choice of candidate, but I cannot and will not deny he's a competent, qualified politician with decades of experience. So was Clinton (didn't caucus for her either). Dumpster on the other hand had no political experience, has no respect for the system, no respect for the people, and it shows.

I really am sorry that this is the situation. I have family with extreme feelings on either side of the aisle, and I empathize with both probably for that reason. I live on property that has both Trump and Biden signs! Let me tell you they are absolutely diametrically in disagreement on who should be elected, too. I am beholden to both sides, so I've been trying to gain perspective. My greatest concern about Biden is its very obvious to me that Biden was not chosen by voters. My greatest concern about Trump is that he seems to have psychological issues. In my state my vote is insignificant. By the time I voted the state was already decided, and I nearly voted for Kanye West just for the novelty of it.

Counting in Wisconsin and Michigan swung in his favor late last night and this early morning, giving him a path to, if he can secure those two states as well as Nevada... a path to victory even if he doesn't win his home state of Pennsylvania.

I told you months ago that he'd win.
Oh, ye of little faith.

Arizona has already been declared for Biden and Biden is leading with 99.97% of the vote counted in Wisconsin, so Biden just needs Nevada and Michigan, and Penn may still swing to Biden with over a million uncounted mail in ballots

You must have very small problems in your life to complain about people being "lazy" because they...use mail. Lucky you.

 

[Trailblazer]

Yep, with WI, MI, and NV he wins regardless.

Hmm. The democrat's are blaming Trump for the loss of lives due to Covid-19. If the stakes are so high, then why can't those lazy ***** get out to vote?

I go to work everyday. They used to give me hazard pay when this thing was really bad (two dollars an hour), but not anymore.
I work for a company that could not care less about the people they employ. And a government under Biden will still be the same.

A vote is a vote. Tough luck for Trump. It is just too bad that he cannot control everything, bad for him but good for all the decent people of this country.

You seem quite confused. If people are dying due to COVID, its a good thing that more people are voting by mail.

Again, I'm glad to hear your biggest complaints in life are people...using the mail. You're very fortunate.

If the stakes are so hif=gh, then why can't those lazy ***** get out to vote?

Why should they go to the polls, when they can mail a ballot or put it in a secured drop box?

Decent people don't rely on bribes to get ahead. They rely on hard work. But sadly, hard work is not rewarded in the US.

I disagree, to some extent. I think that Democrats, following the leaders of their party, are more wary of COVID-19 and getting into social situations that can increase their chances of contracting it. Obviously, given the crowds crammed together, maskless, for Trump rallies, Republicans are either terribly brave, terribly reckless, or just plain dumb.

(Now, given that Republicans have elected a Senator who is convinced believer in Q-Anon rubbish, you may take a guess as to which of those 3 options I lean toward.)

And a government under Trump will be any different for workers?
If you believe that Trump gives a rip about anyone except himself you have really been brainwashed.

Bribes? Who is taking bribes? How is this related to mail-in voting?

 

[Terrywoodenpic]

For the first time ever I have applied for a postal vote in the UK. AT 86 on the next opportunity to vote and with covid around, it seems the sensible option.

 

[LightofTruth]

Why should they go to the polls, when they can mail a ballot or put it in a secured drop box?

They should go to the polls because it says that people can get off their *** when they want to.

Why cook a meal when you can call someone else?

Why clean your house when you can call someone else?

Why cut your grass when you can call someone else?

WHO does that type of thinking cater to? The wealthy!

The Biden voters are for the wealthy! There's the proof.
