    I know this is an unusual election. But it's not the first one ever described as 'the most important election ever'. Do you think you have 'election stress disorder':

    We actually do live in interesting times when Whitmer's secretary of state said weeks ago she's too busy to go through voter rolls and clean them out. Michigan has such transparent, such tolerant, such helpful halfwit tyrants at the helm.

    Interesting times if Trump wins the EC and fails to sweep enough votes to convince even a casual reader that no party could rig that many state elections to achieve whatever-it-is on final tally. Court battles are guaranteed and the same former AG which Congress officially called a liar is now among the shysters lined to plead Groper's case(s). Wow. A plague of lawyers. Kills freedoms faster than ten times the COVID.

    Can McConnell be trusted to get Barrett nominated before the election? Can Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts be trusted not to vote like a Democrat and drag just one more over to that side?

    I have zero stress over this election. If Trump wins I get to watch the left meltdown like 2016. If Biden wins I get to watch the left eat it's own and destroy the democrat party. Either way I win! Bring on the popcorn!

    As a bonus it looks like we are going to have a conservative majority SCOTUS!!!

    I can see why some people might be stressed out.

    The Vast Majority of America has suffered through 4 Years of TRUMP HELL...

    They don't want to go through another 4 years.

    Even if Biden wins the mere mention of Trump will throw lefties into fits. Some folks have permanent emotional damage from 2016.

    I'll admit I'm burned out. But not stressed over either result.
    Mlm it's really just a question of me making a little more money or a little less.
