    The blue-state priority is on peoples' health. ;)

    Meh. Well they didn't have "no excuse" mail-in ballots, and they did add that by adding "fear of Covid" as a legitimate excuse. Who needs polling places when Democrats prefer mailboxes for everyone? lol

    First, I'm not a lib. Second, none of those policies you listed have anything to do with my opinions. Third, I just sent in my ballot. I voted for mostly republicans and independents. I voted for exactly one democrat. That's more votes than a democrat usually gets from me. In the last 20 years or so, I've voted for TWO total democrats for federal office.

    So, please refine what box you have me in. If you can't do that, please keep it to yourself. TYVM.

    Oh dear, what did my post have to do with you?

    I merely refuted your reference to Obama's presidency by indicating that the Dems have moved a long way from a reasonable party to an uber-leftist, socialist, gun-grabbing, pro-open border, anti-free speech, anti-police radical organization led by the likes of Bernie, the Squad, Farrakhan and beholden to extremists from Antifa and BLM

    PS posters siding with a party that supports uber-leftist views and policies are liberals/leftists in my book, no matter how much they may want to protest.

    You called me a lib and then proceeded to associate me with policies I object outright. What does it have to do with me? Uh... when someone accuses me of something, I pretty much assume it's about me.

    When you responded to me and said, "you libs," who were you referring to?

    I was referring to people like you who support/defend/promote the party which espouses the uber-leftist radical policies I described in my post.

    In my book these people are libs no matter how much they protest and claim to be republican or conservative supporters of BLM, open borders, police defunding and gun confiscation.

    I'm not that person. Hatred of the way Trump treats the WH does not make one a liberal. It makes one logical. ;)

    Agreed. Anyone who votes Biden or Democrat at all aligns themselves with those policies by choice. There are consequences to elections!

    Logic is when you deduce that voting for one candidate goes against everything that you stand for and you simply vote for the candidate that more closely aligns with your political beliefs. Politics isn't about loving the candidate before you. When Biden packs the court, those who voted for him are then considered liberals. That is logic.

    I see. You support ***** grabbing without permission.

    Good to know.

    For the first time in 20 years, I'm voting for the lessor of two evils. I voted all republican for the rest of the offices, because the last thing we need is one party fully holding three branches.

    That's fine, you base your judgement on personal feelings (animosity in this case), I base mine on policies and the direction to which these policies will take this country... if the direction is into the land of radical leftism, the person is a leftist in my book, he does not remain a conservative or republican just because his/her vote for these horrible policies is caused by hatred. We'll have to agree to disagree :)

    So what?

    Once they count the Early Votes, Trump Will LOSE.

    It means the number of people voting early does not change the total number of votes.
    How do you not understand this?

    pull out of equities
    put most into low yield bonds and the rest into precious metals as the dollar will weaken

    Yes, and gun stocks are sure to rise if Biden wins.

    Says you. But what liberals say doesn't really align with my views.

    2016 is before currently. I thought that was obvious. Something can't happen for the first time in 2020 if it happened in 2016.

    Sorry to butt in but you look like you want an answer. That was my take on it anyway.

    He told me this post was untrue but it most certainly is, Desoto had always been a historically Democrat majority county, well that changed this year. http://www.politicalforum.com/index...ushin-the-republicans.580002/#post-1072139665

    Nor mine. Nothing Trump does aligns with my views, either.

    When I think leader of the free world, my mind doesn't go to Trump, in any sense of the word.

    Good luck to you and your team.

    The chance that I win anything on November 3 is nil. I haven't won in the election process for most of my life. George HW Bush is probably the only exception, and America didn't want him for two terms. My countrymen and I strongly disagree on what quality leadership looks like.

    Trump is the only President in how long not to get us in a war, are you a warhawk or a fan of them? Do you see that as bad?

    My apologies for judging your choices. Who am I to judge? Nobody! Sorry about that. We all make the best choice we can and move forward with our decision. And we hope that we get another wake up tomorrow, good Lord willing.

    I still don't think there is any enthusiasm for Biden as a person. But I think Trump is such a repugnant individual and disaster that there's enthusiasm for normalcy. Biden represents that normalcy.
