Jools 584 Posted October 23, 2020 6 hours ago, horsefly said: Yep! Trump did a great job with two of the key groups he desperately needs to win over. He will have definitely won over the black vote when he found the need to explain "I'm the least racist person in the room". My black friends always tell me how reassured they are when someone begins a sentence "I'm not racist ...". ( when he added that it was too dark to see anyone in the audience I'm assuming he expected to see a room full of KKK members). And he will definitely have won over the female vote when he pointed out that it was ok to have violently separated over 500 children from their families because they are now living in lovely clean institutions. What reasonable mother could want more for their child. He sure nailed it! (the lid on his coffin that is) . According to Rasmussen polling, Trumpski isn't doing too badly with black voters after the earlier debate: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for charity we only give that to homeless veterans suffering from PTSD after being sent to illegal wars and then abandoned by our globalist masters. Are you ready for the end of FI AT ? CBDC incoming and judging how you lot have just capitulated over a mild pandemic I don't have a lot or any faith in our future of top down control.

I thought illegal votes and mail in fraud were well known back in 2016 which is why DT lost the popular vote. Unfortunately I don’t quite get why, after 4 years in charge he has chosen to do nothing about sorting it out. Why is it that Republican states can do mail in voting properly but Democrat states are just rife with corruption. How many illegal voters are there in CA &NY? Can you predict numbers for voter fraud in other states or are we just calling all votes for Democratic candidates fraudulent and fake news. If you are wrong and DT loses I look forward to seeing you, RTB et al on here admitting you were mistaken but I suspect we won’t see you for dust. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PurpleCanary 5,571 Posted October 24, 2020 9 hours ago, Jools said: Who do you think is going to win the election? Trump or Biden? I have already said Biden will win the popular vote. I don't know who will win the electoral college vote, but then no-one does, unless you do, of course. It is generally accepted that in the race to 270 electoral college votes Biden has 212 wrapped up and Trump 125, and that the following swing states will determine the outcome: Minnesota (10 votes), Nevada (6), New Hampshire (4), Arizona (11), Georgia (16), Texas (38), Florida (29), Iowa (6), North Carolina (15), Ohio (18), Michigan (16), Pennsylvania (20), Wisconsin (10). If you can correctly predict how those states are going to vote then you are wasted here and should be selling your services at a very high price to the global media. As it stands even if Trump were to win Pennsylvania, Iowa, Ohio, Florida, Texas and Geogia (so including the swing states with the most votes) he would only get to 252. And Biden is likely to win Pennsylvania unless the fossil fuel remarks really hurt him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is why it is important. I would say a bit early to judge, BF! There are some unique factors at play, including the pandemic, and the total hopelessness of Johnson and in particular Trump, who has none of the qualities necessary to be president. Even bad presidents have been capable of performing some vital aspects of the job. Not The Donald. The other dispiriting factor is the one thing Trump has achieved (actually people working for him, but it was his aim) has been to pack the federal courts and now the Supreme Court with idelogue rightwing judges, and that could have a profound effect, not least in overturning past and future legislation.

And I suppose him asking for the young woman's address and telephone number was just him wanting to send a thank-you note. Straight out of the Donald Trump s*x-abuser playbook.
