And this is a concern for the Dems, because I think 4 years ago there were ppl who would not admit voting for Trump back then, or at least changed their minds on election day at the last minute. So, given the way polls have been so wrong in recent years, even if Biden wins, he won't win by as much as the polls say today, imo. It might be as tight as the Gore/Bush election. I just can't see Biden winning by a landslide.

Vote Dems, get chaos and antifa, or vote Trump and get law & order & prosperty. Chicago , the home of Obama, has shown the USA the future under Dem rule, a total disaster, the vote will be a total Trump Victory. RFK JR is now on the Trump Train, unthinkable a few months ago, Total Trump victory is a certainty, bet accordantly.

According to military officials, the U.S. will reduce its number of troops from 5,200 to 3,500 in the region. President Trump: "We were there, and now we’re getting out," he told reporters. "We’ll be leaving shortly." The is great news for us all, Biden supporters and Trump supporters alike. I think we can all agree with the push to end counter insurgency. This will win Trump votes no doubt.

They want the largest, most advanced and most expensive military in the world, yet they don't want to engage in any fighting They want to tell other countries what to do and when do do it, including who to run the country, but don't want to get involved They want their troops out spreading democracy, but don't want their troops in harms way. They want to pick sides in foreign conflicts, but baulk at the idea of selling arms. Some of their biggest companies are based on producing arms. They believe that guns make people safe, but anyone with a gun (that is not American) is a terrorist. They want to disengage from the ME, except for Israel where they cheer when actively siding with Israel and giving billions each year in aid. Basically, the average American has no idea what the hell they country is up to, the problems they cause, the effects they have abroad, or the damage and chaos they leave behind. Many would think that the US military is the best in the world, despite the numerous and consistent failures, but they believe the hyoe that the administration (or both hues) prefer to spread. So they want a POTUS that brings their troops home, but cheer when he spends $50bn a year extra on the military.

Federal charges to be pursued against the criminals. Many of the federal offenses carry 20 year minimum sentences. As well as that it is an election year and he'll want to point and say look what Joe's buddies did.

Leroy42 wrote: » I totally agree. It is well past time that the leader of the country took an active role in this, and other areas, rather than hiding behind the 'blame the governor' line. That might be technically true, but a strong leader can push things certain ways, and as you say by visiting the place he can give the people hope and a sense that America is in this together. This is a significant change from his approach to date, preferring to let the people suffer and blame others. Perhaps they have realised that by playing the role of a leader it could actually make people think he has some leadership qualities. I do wonder will he stick to blaming the rioters for everything or will he address the recent murders by a Trump supporter openly carry an assault weapon?

We need to know if Rittenhouse genuinely felt his life was in danger. This knowledge will help us understand the situation better. I am not saying anyone deserved to die. On the contrary, I think it is a terrible tragedy what has happened. Three lives ruined. It appears to me that the two men who died posed a considerable danger to Rittenhouse. Did he know about their backgrounds at the time? Possibly not but their penchant for violence would undoubtedly have been evident on the night.
