I am really starting to get worried about November.

I'm worried that the polls are not reflective of the real numbers. I'm worried that, as in 2016, Trump voters will lie and call themselves undecideds in polling, and vote for Trump on Election Day. I'm worried that Trump will screw with the Post Office enough to throw off the mail-in ballot numbers. I'm afraid that all the usual Republican election cheats will allow Trump to squeak out a tiny margin in battleground states and take the election.

I'm worried that even if Biden does manage an electoral victory, that Trump will throw the country into an absolute state of upheaval and that all those crazy fuckers with long guns who were protesting the lockdown will be out looking for targets. I'm worried that Trump will send out his goons to cities and have those crazy fuckers join with them for his own private army. I'm worried that the police will just stand by and watch it all happen. I'm worried that our armed forces will just stand by and let it happen. I'm worried that there will be open warfare in cities all across America and that it could mark the end of our democracy.

Someone tell me I'm wrong. Please.

I'd like some help refuting a couple of anti-BLM RW tweets but

I know the TOS prohibits putting RW talking points in here. I'm sure I could find a good rebuttal for these but I'm tired and I know someone in here will have a good one right away. So I've inserted a couple of smilies in that keep the tweets from actually posting. Can anyone give me a hand with these?

Watch out for scammers.

My mother has already gotten an "alert" call from Medicare, and has gotten a call about her "order" of a respirator. Both calls hung up the second I got on the phone. Bastards.

I went too far in my responses to Gravitycollapse.

In the post about the horrid tweet about Biden.

I was incandescently furious over that tweet. And I took my response too far. I do not believe that Gravitycollapse supported that tweet. I do not believe that it is indicative of the average Sanders supporter. I apologize to Gravitycollapse and to every Sanders supporter on here for my reaction towards them.

WOW! Warren just burned Bloomberg down HARD.

That seemed like a really visceral dislike of Bloomberg.

I was asked if I'd support the eventual Democratic nominee if my candidate didn't win...

I said, “You mean support a Democrat I didn’t vote for over Trump? That’s like asking me if I’d choose eating broccoli over having a double orchiectomy.”

Thank you for the heart!

I didn't want to ask, but was wondering if I'd get one! Much appreciated!

I know how we can solve all this.

Tell Trump that President Obama once jumped out of a 9th story window onto pavement and lived, because he’s that much man.

Then tell Pence that many evil seductresses will be out to despoil him and rip him away from Mother if he takes the Presidency.

Bang. President Nancy Pelosi.

Just trying to lighten the mood.
