Whenever I see young calling "" and threatening to not vote for him, and risking letting win a second term, and the Convention to be held in , I can't help but see history repeating itself, where young anti-war protesters disrupted the '68 Convention in Chicago to cost the election (arguably) and put "" back in office (after being Ike's for 8 years.) 😞

It's astonishing how T****'s supporters listened to him brag for months about "what a great athlete" he was in school/college, yet never once questioned HOW he could have been such a great athlete despite having "#BoneSpurs" that kept him out of #Vietnam.

Trump on the staff of his highschool basketball team and as a player on his HS baseball team.

The evening news reported only about 3,500 attended ("HowManyPeopleInPicture" reports roughly 1,000 in the attached photo. Another 1,000 were reportedly in line. Not sure where the rest are.)

One protester who attended T**** rally said she observed "license plates from Tennessee, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, etc."

T****'s "groupies" follow him around the country to ensure he's never seen before a tiny crowd to make it look like he's more popular than he really is.

The 's playing a dangerous game allowing this myth to perpetuate. It's why they can't believe it when he loses by huge numbers, and "the only explanation is that the election must have been stolen".

REALLY?

Worse than 405K deaths from dismissing a pandemic?

Worse than quoting & inciting an insurrection?

Worse than creating a $1.2T ANNUAL deficit?

Worse than promising to be ?

The Biden "Disaster": ended the pandemic; longest stretch of sub-4% UE in 60 years; lowest inflation & fastest recovery in The G8.

I saw an interview with a T**** rally attendee in 2020 who said this was her "27th T**** rally."

He has a "fan club" that follows him around from city-to-city to make him look more popular than he really is. (Unfortunately, I have not been able to re-find the clip.)

I suspect ' CEO is (laughably) wrong about how tariffs on Chinese EVs would trigger inflation. It DOES bolster a suspicion of mine:

's industry is exploding at the same time they belch Greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.

I believe this to be ON PURPOSE.

China is flooding the atmosphere to ACCELERATE while they pour BILLIONS into Green Tech in an attempt to corner the market.

Saving $ using cheap energy w/o emissions concerns is a plus.

I haven't checked the list yet, but if they didn't include any of his "Bachman books", it's a bad list.

(Checked. They include two "post-Bachman" books (written as Richard Bachman, but released as Stephen King.) Then include all-four of "The Bachman Books" as a single entry. Not sure that counts.

Since we now know Alito was flying his flag upside down at the time, let’s review one of the plans the coup plotters had involving him.

This interview by criminal defendant Powell is interesting. It suggests that the purpose of the insurrection was to DELAY the electoral college certification to give time to intervene on this legal challenge. But, Powell says they didn’t anticipate Pelosi reconvening Congress that day.
