One consequence of Trump's failure to create an effective state level campaign organization is potential disaster in Pennsylvania: the rules for accepting absentee ballots are very strict and many are rejected. The Dems have a massive organization that assists in curing defective ballots. Conversely, Trump has nothing equivalent. Because of the whole "cheap" thing. Gotta pay those lawyers. This consequence will manifest itself in an imbalance in accepted absentee ballots.

Obviously, someone is still living in 2020.

Yeah, maybe that's why Trump is playing YMCA at his rallies.

If Trump loses the election, the odds of prison are high. Maybe his lawyers can argue the Alzheimer's as a reason not to imprison him. In fact, after November 5, I give Trump maybe a year before he is institutionalized.

Harris sniffs little girls?

"They're eating the cats. They're eating the dogs". The Trumpers here cannot give a straight answer whether they believe this or not. They will dissemble about geese or Haiti, and completely fail to answer the question.

Nice try. Did you know that Trump is losing badly in early voting? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/early-vote

Obviously, Trump's memories of Arnold Palmer's schlong haven't faded yet.

The polls are worthless, since the spread between the candidates is smaller than the polling margin of error. What is significant are early voting numbers, since that reflects votes, not opinions. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/early-vote The Dems are way ahead in early voting.

Out of caution, I am traveling sufficiently this year that I will spend less than 179 days in Thailand this year. My plan is to monitor the status of the new tax regulations early next year. If it's worst case, I will look for a permanent home in another country to spend 6 months every year. But it's hard to believe that the Thai government is going to force Farangs living in Isaan villages to file tax returns, given the impossibility of contacting them.

What part of Thailand do you live in?

How about the foreigners here who support Trump because he will weaken America, and so a multi-polar world would emerge?

Project 2025 is a blueprint for the next conservative administration—namely a Trump presidency—developed by the Heritage Foundation with support from other right-wing organizations, which has primarily gained attention for its 900-page policy roadmap proposing wide-reaching and controversial changes to every aspect of the executive branch. "Vance, however, openly has close ties with the Heritage Foundation and its founder Kevin Roberts, who told reporters the organization was privately “really rooting” for Vance to be the VP pick and told Politico in March that the senator “is absolutely going to be one of the leaders — if not the leader — of our movement.”

I am asking his position on a political subject here on the Political Soapbox. The guy gushes unsolicited political opinions all day long. I guess Project 2025 is third rail material for you guys.

The question on the table is whether you support Project 2025. Please don't get distracted.

So, we can believe the FBI, or we can believe some random online type. Gee, tough decision.

I'm not a Brit, but I don't think assaults are a good thing, in general.

Harris holds 2:1 lead in early voting – as poll goers cite abortion as a main issue Doesn't look like a Trump win based on actual votes... Women are far outpacing men in early voting, I wonder why.

A fact free post. How useful. Here's some data for you, actual votes cast. Perhaps you haven't been sent any talking points about early votes yet: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/early-vote

It's worse for the Republicans in Michigan early voting. Large numbers of women voters motivated to vote early, I wonder what that's about.

You've been fooled by the wave of Republican polls that flood the media every October. Trump suffers from a failing ground operation, which will limit turnout on Election Day. Conversely, Harris is way ahead in early voting. If you think Trump is going to win in Wisconsin, take a look at this: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-elections/wisconsin-results

Do you have a link for that assertion? FBI director shoots down ‘ludicrous’ January 6 conspiracy theory It's one thing to be a conspiracy nut. It's another to try to gaslight us with clearly false assertions that you don't even try to back up. In what part of your brain do you think that posting obvious lies helps your argument? People here are not idiots like the MAGA types.

Is there some part of "violent attempt to overturn an election" that you don't understand?

Trump being crazy is a feature, not a bug, for the Trumpers.

Polls are meaningless now, since their margin of error is so high. What matters now are early votes, and turnout. Where the big vote numbers are from matters. The polls are a distraction.
