    He comes across really aggressive in the interview. Do they have a past?

    He just despises strong women. There is no subtext with him. I have yet to see a conversation where Trump wouldn't drag up their past history if they had one if he was going to get into that level of mudslinging.

    No but she has two characteristics that The Don hates:

    1) She's a woman (that he has no interest in sleeping with)

    2) She actively disagrees with him and doesn't buy his bullshlt.

    Will Trump even show up for the debate tonight or will he chicken out again? He chickened out of the 60 minutes interview too, there seems to be a developing pattern here...

    It's a really strange watch. Not sure why he put this up.

    It'll appeal to his user base who write off the 'fake' news media, if they show a shred of disagreement with Trump or the GOP.

    And, he truly believes he's the victim there. In his world, there cannot exist a possibility where he's wrong, or where he isn't a demi-god above all questioning.

    Not just in his world. A few posters here suffer from the same affliction.

    Trumps diehards REALLY played their cards wrong with the whole pre debates mantra that Joe is really very scared of debating Trump and will run away from them.


    Really didn't age well.

    I am still of the opinion that Biden is well entitled to the days off the trail because after this he won't be seeing his grandkids again in any ordinary manner for quite a long time. Debate->GOTV->Election Chaos->Chaotic Transition->President

    Is that what Trump was whinging about in the,60 minutes interview? Biden gets a milk shake but Trump kept going on about ice cream lol.

    "The ex mayor" is more aptly known as Donald Trump's lawyer. Conflicts of interest abound. And his "Police Commissioner?" What? The laptop wasn't found in New York, who are you even talking about

    Serious melodramatization going on to suggest their "lives" are in danger.

    Do you believe Seth Rich was killed by the DNC or something I guess? Why else would people assume there is any risk of life here. It's comical.

    Ah I didn't mean to emphasise that, calm down. I was thinking of the computer store guy who seemed to think his life was in danger.

    There's no such disqualifier like 'conflict of interest' with criminal allegations. And whatever you mean, they are not enough to ignore this because they aren't in a vacuum, there's a constellation of information in the public domain and more to come. You keep trying to attack any single thing I point to, each time ignoring or not being aware of other information.


    Yes. He was going through it with one of his old commissioners, who has spoken about. If you don't know this it's because it hasn't been reported in mainstream media, apparently it's not worth knowing.

    So stop lecturing me about conflicts of interest or warning me that the DNI is a republican, I know these things, I still think this is not to be ignored.

    This is where the credibility gap stretches to the limit.

    Can you imagine anyone you know who would appoint that man their solicitor?

    It's absurd. The whole setup is so ridiculous.

    "Nearly 47 MILLION have voted - 34% of the entire 2016 vote."

    Is this good or bad for Trump?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,449 ✭✭✭Call Me Jimmy


    "Nearly 47 MILLION have voted - 34% of the entire 2016 vote."

    Is this good or bad for Trump?

    Is there a breakdown of mail-in vs in-person? I would say it's obviously bad if it's largely mail-in

    I was thinking about this the other day when we hit 30 million votes.

    30 million is 10% of the country. For a country whose ordinary election day turnout, a mere 12 hours (per district), is 50% participation, this is really something to keep an eye on. 15% of the electorate has voted with 12 days to spare and a benchmark of 55% participation to reach.

    Total Early Votes: 46,784,165 • Mail Ballots: 33,281,943 • In-Person Votes: 13,502,222

    I mispoke in my last post, the participation rate is actually higher than 15% I was going on total population not eligible voters.

    The Voting Age Population is 257.6 million.

    So why are you supposing without evidence that the FBI is allowing the DNI to use the intelligence community....

    I'm sorry, in your world does the Director of National Intelligence report to the FBI?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Director_of_National_Intelligence

    It's a political appointee, oversees 17 agencies including a part of the FBI.

    HTH clarify things for you.

    I think complacency and apathy won in 2016.
    Not this time though.

    Erm.... in-person votes don't mean good for the #IMPOTUS. Have a look at some of the early reporting on who is lining up for hours at at time in, say, Detroit.

    I wonder if he'll know if he took a Covid-19 test today. Seems to have trouble with that question when asked.

    50/50 he shows up. 30/70 he storms off early.

    or: He doesn't show up and blames a positive covid test. :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 82,166 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    So by Monday if these numbers are correct 1 in 5 eligible Americans will have already voted, and maybe well on the way to 1 in 4.

    He was already whining about the moderator today on twitter. I can only assume from that that he is expecting this to go badly.


    It would be great to see him storm off and then have the usual crowd try to convince themeselves and everyone else that having to answer questions was so unfair.

    Rudy better shít or get off the pot because at this rate, he's beginning to look more like Jacob Wohl than Roger Stone.


  • Registered Users Posts: 82,166 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    Regarding Covid-19: just a personal FYI the University I work/research at announced that we will be going back into lockdown status effectively after the Thanksgiving break, all classes that were hybrid are going back to online only. Wondering if other schools and institutions are thinking similarly. Especially makes sense for colleges though because of the mass travel usually associated with our breaks, vs. a local grade school doesn't see that same impact. Could impact the election.

    last post .. which one ... your like a MG42 spitting out posts.. I suggest this is nerves , nerves that Trump will win again. I sense the fear in the left.
    They arent even trying to form arguments or positions , just pumping out the same bile we got used to in the last 4 years.

    are you a mod in Ranting and Raving .... if the shoe fits..

    I don't believe I've ever seen you engage in any form of a cogent argument, it's generally you spouting MAGA nonsense. So pot calls kettle black.....

    Will Russia sit by while Biden goes off-grid to avoid the heat?
