    So when Trump wins the popular vote on election day, but then Biden wins once all the paper ballots are counted, are you going to declare it corruption and illegitimate? How will you behave? This is an issue that is coming.

    The non-issue here is that Trump needs to believe, and needs you to believe on his behalf, that his impending loss will be due to voter fraud. He and you play right into the hands of America's enemies with this crap. Trump already started making baseless accusations about a "rigged" election in 2016, when he was reasonably sure he would not win, and now he is at it again, but with mail-in voting added to the mix. In 2016 it was, as far as I am aware, vague and baseless accusations of illegal immigrants voting. There has never been evidence to support that and there is no evidence to support the attacks on mail-in voting now, but as we all know, Trump doesn't let facts get in his way.

    You do know that Kamala Harris's policy positions are null and void when she lost the primary? It's going to be all about Joe Biden from now on.

    Edit: Just to be sure I checked Joe Biden's campaign website to see his stance and so far it's just some regulations. It's a long page:

    One thing that caught my eye is this:
    Seems like it's going to be very inconvenient for people.

    Actually this scenario of Biden winning the election and Trump and his supporters not accepting the results is a very real fear of the left.

    How long do you think Joe will be in office before Harris takes over? No way he makes it four years. Then Harris will be looking to win 2024, and her platform will be very relevent.

    It'll be interesting to see how Joe manages to ban online sale of 'gun parts'... most 'gun parts' have a non 'gun' equivalent thats used in other common machinery, and the ones that don't are easily modified from other parts. Are we going to need a liscence to buy car parts, washing machine parts, drills and presses?

    If not, there's going to be an 'amateur hobby machinist' boom.

    The left is violent. The right is not. The left is whipping their mindless hordes into a maniacal lather with such rhetoric. As if they weren't already rabid enough. What their leaders do, they do for power. And what their hordes do, they do for joy. What Republicans do, they do for America because it's the right thing to do.

    I read further on Biden's gun page and read what he wants to do about gun parts:

    Actually I think Biden might be able to hang on. He's going to get the VIP deluxe healthcare that is fitting for his station, beyond what we common people could have or afford.

    Yeah, you're right. Some of the little people on the left are violent. Fortunately, once the election is over the Dem politicians will go back to normal, at least the older ones. Though some of the young upstarts have gone far to the extreme left radicalism.

    What they're not telling you is that most gun parts arent regulated because it would be impossible to do so. They can't stop people from buying steel tubing or springs or bent steel plate. What they regulate are firearm recievers (typically the 'body' of the gun that holds all the parts together). What they're also not telling you is the ATFE classifies an 80% complete receiver as a firearm, because less complete than that is just another bit of machined metal. Finished receivers are already regulated- you can't buy one without a background check because the reciever is legally the firearm. The question is, is Biden going to regulate 70% complete receivers? 50%? 'Ghost guns' is just gun grabber jabber for 'people machining their own guns'. At what point do we need a BGC to buy a block of aluminun or some steel roundstock?

    Regulating 3D printer files is even more asinine. They can't even stop people from trading child porn. You think they can regulate CAD files?

    They're selling you a bill of goods they can't deliver.

    This is why mass mail in ballots are a bad idea. Even democrats are worried that a delay in counting them will result in a questionable outcome that could lead to civil unrest and violence.

    Yawn. I've heard this song before.

    "We can't let Obama in!!! His number one priority will be to take away ALL the guns!!!"

    All that did was create a big boon for the gun industry and the NRA.

    I believe the election fraud is not to try to actually alter the outcome of the election, but prevent the extremely embarrassing situation of Trump winning the popular vote, and the public seeing how many votes Trump gets in blue states, that even the election results in blue states will not be overwhelming.

I'll declare the democrats corrupt and illegitimate right now.. they are already ginning up this "Red Mirage" https://thenationalpulse.com/politics/democrat-data-firm-trump-landslide/ that will keep the peaceful continuation of Presidential power in turmoil at the very least.. it is evil..

    Listen up, I will tell you how, they do it in Colorado. They send troops out the the colleges, where kids have been indoctrinated, if they cannot convince kids, some of which are not legally allowed to vote, to vote democrat they tell them that they legally have to turn in blank ballots or they could be in trouble, and lucky them these democrats will be happy to collect them from them, my son watched it happen, they showed up at the dorms collecting arm fulls of ballots, are you naive enough to think that those ballots were returned blank? No one and I mean no one could possibly be that easily duped.

    We had a special election about 5 years ago and they sent busses to the colleges and rounded up kids, and told them if they just signed a form saying that they intended to move her permanently then they could vote. I bet those kids voted Republican, right?

    We have almost zero restrictions on ballot harvesting, it is something Republicans never considered doing, and now they are way behind the curve as democrats have had more than a decade to work it out.

    I do not trust mail in voting one little bit. That is why I never mail back my ballot I hand deliver it, I don't want some union thug at the post office throwing away my ballot because of my zip code, I suppose democrats pretend that doesn't happen either.

    It could happen. If it does, Trump will go back to saying what he did when he thought Romney had won the popular vote: he'll call for rebellion over Twitter. He won't actually do anything about it, but be prepared for the typical Trumpian pity party.

    When I go to vote I have to have my drivers license scanned, state my name and address, which is checked against the current voter rolls by a poll worker, given a slip of paper confirming that, which I take to another poll worker who directs me to a booth were I mark my ballot, which I then take to the machine, attended by another poll worker, in which I insert my ballot AND IMMEDIATELY SEE MY VOTE HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY CAST. Absentee ballots can be mailed, but must be done so by a proscribed date. But I don't hear the Democrats saying "absentee", just "mail-in". Do I trust Democrats, given their shenanigan's since BEFORE Trumps election? BIG FAT NOOO!!!
