I wonder how many hours I have spent deleting emails? Those hours must have added up to at least several weeks. I kid you not! Hours upon hours deleted from my remaining finite hours.
I'm so sick of all this breaking speculation with regard to the 2020 National Election. We will find out the election results when we find out.
Days?
Weeks?
Months?
Meanwhile, "THE COVID" is doing what viruses do: spreading. Hysteria does nothing to prevent the spread.
No matter how this election pans out, there will still be Trump-supporting Republicans in Washington that require removal, as unfortunately they weren't on the hot seat this time.
ReplyDeleteThe MainStream GOP (The Party of Bush) will themselves eliminate the handful of Forever Trumpsters if Donald loses.
DeleteIf the Lunatic Left seizes the Senate....we are in for some very difficult times ahead.
We can hope the Senate swings wide left Democrat under President Biden. Congress will flip back in 2022 in a way the shellacking of Obama in 2010 did, but much more conservative. First the purge of the Republican Party of those who carried water for Trump will need to happen, and that can be done in two years, imho.
DeleteTC,
DeleteI want to point out a few things....
We can hope the Senate swings wide left Democrat under President Biden. Congress will flip back in 2022...
I wouldn't count on that. One issue, if reports are to be believed, is the SCOTUS, more specifically, the packing of the SCOTUS.
the shellacking of Obama in 2010
And much more damage was done post-2010. "I have a pen and a phone." Also, BHO got re-elected in 2012.
If we're going to hope, let's be a lot more positive about it.
DeleteI believe Michael Travis is right about the Bush bunch....and yes, America doesn't even realize what hard times we're in for. Imagine corporations going back to Asia and Europe...how many unemployed again, imagine making us energy dependent yet again and reliant on enemies, imagine going to war again, imagine higher taxes (Please don't believe it's only those making more than $400K...I'm from California, we know Kamala Harris well)...ya, very tough times. So sad...we'd come such a long way before COVID.
DeleteTrump has accomplished what he set out to do, which was to destroy the Republican Party as a relevant voice in national politics. It's going to take a while to unf**k that. Two years minimum if President Biden goes full retard left.
DeleteTC,
DeleteUnlike you, I believe that the "old GOP" needed to be destroyed. I believe that you and I have covered this ground before.
Oh, it was the "old GOP" who gave us Romney as the candidate. I know that you were outraged by that. McCain was little better.
For too long, the GOP has been "Democrat Lite."
At least the pre-Trump Republican Party could dislodge vast numbers of Democrats from office at all levels. Them days are over.
DeleteExactly, speculation is such a waste of time just as liberalism is a mental disease.
ReplyDeleteKid,
DeleteI've pretty much sworn off "the news" the past several days.
You are right, Kid. And even though I raised my little girl with conservative values, the Lib-dominated school system here in Commiefornia has turned her left of center. And as with nearly all Libs, you can't argue with them because they counter facts with emotions.
DeleteI want to say THIS to all Trump fans, and supporters. We are tenacious courageous and fearless. . We don’t give up NO matter what. We have done our best to support our candidate and we have WORKED so hard to help Donald Trumps RE-Election.
ReplyDeleteI’m proud to stand beside all you guys.... Win or lose,but winning is Very Important, so lets no let us and get out there and VOTE!
Looking forward to tomorrow and having this nightmare conclude one way or another. No doubt the end of the story will take weeks if not months but my part will have concluded.
ReplyDeleteBunkerville,
DeleteWho knows how long it will be to get "the results"?
No doubt endless litigation but I have full faith in the Roberts court that justice will prevail..snark here.
DeleteBut who will "run" the country on Inauguration Day since a legal conclusion will likely not be issued? Gawd forbid it being Wicked Witch Nancy (which she is planning for since Day One of the coup).
DeleteThey are not even trying to hide it with only 2 (1) days before the election.
ReplyDeleteA vote cast for Joe Biden is a vote cast for Obama's promised “Fundamental Change” for America, to convert this country into a Communist /Marxist nation. The suppression of our Constitutional and Civil rights in the name of COVID-19 by these Socialist Democrats whi haven’t even won yet. They are not even trying to hide it is only a taste of what is to come if Joe Biden, the 'Trojan Beijing Horse', wins then Kamala Harris will shortly be Introduced as the Next President Of The United States. So when you vote think about WHO, and WHAT you are really voting for
Could you IMAGINE Joe Biden....”Mr Excitement” doing a Trump Rally?
ReplyDeleteCovid will run it's course no matter what. Look at Europe and California where masks are mandatory and cases are on the rise so it seems masks are not the answer.
ReplyDeleteI feel confident that in January covid will disappear because predator joe has a plan. I did find it comical that barry said joey has a plan to help small businesses and the middle class. Those were two of the targets to eliminate for bummer and now basement joey is going to help them, doubt it.
A vote for criminal joe is a vote for socialist harris because even botox nan has a plan to get him out of office when he is elected and insert cruella.
Skudrunner,
DeleteA vote for criminal joe is a vote for socialist harris
Surely seems that way to me, too.
Hello my friend,
ReplyDeleteIf Trump fails in his re-election bid we'll most likely never know the truth about Covid 19.
Michael,
DeleteAgreed!
Good to see you here, my friend. It's been a while.
After the election, Trump is going to move to a country that has no extradition treaty with the US, avoiding impending prosecution and prison, but ironically making America great again by getting the hell off our soil.
DeleteWhat happened to Li'l Tucker and his Hunter Biden tell all?
ReplyDeleteDuck,
DeleteI haven't followed that scandal enough to comment on it.
Simple. Democrats are collectively playing the monkey in the middle.
DeleteDucky,
DeleteOT, but thank you again for turning me on to Matt Taibbi. He and Glenn Greenwald are the last real journalists left in America (even though Greenwald is in Brazil)
What happened to Li'l Tucker and his Hunter Biden tell all?
DeleteHis dog ate it before the class taught about saving files to a laptop and other such esoterica.
Ducky - same thing that happened with the Durham report. Pipe dreams and fantasies....
DeleteAbout Hunter Biden....
DeleteWhere is he?
If these allegations are false, shouldn't he be out there screaming the allegations are lies AND filing lawsuits?
My two cents.
When the media covers you, don't expose yourself.
DeleteWhere is he?
DeleteHe doesn't need to be in the spotlight. The speciousness of the allegations do enough damage to the accusers.
Admittedly, I don't really understand the fervent need to "know" the actual winner of the Presidential election today. I get the desire...we're all tired of the campaign and media drama....but no state certifies the election results on 3 November. We're been conditioned to know the projected winner based on exit polling and precinct totals....but that is not the official tally. It's irresponsible, especially for the highest elected office, to demand that we 'know' a winner tonight.
ReplyDeleteI'd rather all the ballots were counted [including military absentee]...but perhaps I'm in the minority.
CI,
DeleteAdmittedly, I don't really understand the fervent need to "know" the actual winner of the Presidential election today.
Tradition, I think.
By federal law, all votes are to be certified today.
DeleteEd - How so? Any number of websites will give you the certification deadlines. Such as:
Deletehttps://ballotpedia.org/Election_results_certification_dates,_2020
Your state of Michigan for example, has until the 23rd if this month. Some states extend into December.
Sorry Ed... the Constitution gives authority of the elections in the states, to those states. I think they did that to avoid a over reach one size fits all approach from a federal perspective.
DeleteAnd SCOTUS has affirmed this many times.
Not a single state, as CI said, is required to certify their elections on election night.
Besides, apart from that, under your scenario, since there are states that are not allowed to count absentee, military and overseas votes before election day, should we not count their votes if they are not able to be counted before midnight today?
Imagine we have American voters who just can't MANAGE to get their ballots in by ELECTION DAY. Let's stop calling it that, folks...what a joke that is! It is NOT ELECTION DAY....or we would be.
DeleteYep, screw the deployed military, the OPTEMPO and the slow mail system. Their votes don't deserve to be counted when the more 'important' issue of emotional closure and instant gratification is at stake......
DeleteCI,
DeleteThe strong position about Election Day is not about screwing anyone.
I've voted absentee ballot every year and send my ballot in early. This year, I deposited it directly in a box at the library.
AOW - Actually it seems to absolutely be the case, when dear leader "demands" or Z questions why states are counting absentee and mail-in ballots after Election Day, when every state allows for that, and most states are prohibited from beginning so until on or after election day.
DeleteCI,
DeleteI've never been sure how those votes were counted. Weren't many of the "late" and counted only if the elections results were close?
The last few election cycles, I've been convinced that my vote in Virginia doesn't count. You've noted how Left Northern Virginia has shifted, I'm sure. And so many live in Northern Virginia that their votes overwhelm the rest of the state.
Of course, I continue to vote every time. My motto: "if you didn't vote, don't bitch."
Every vote that is received by a State before the acceptance deadline [which varies by State] is to be counted. Absentee filings are not situationally dependent.
DeleteI'm well familiar with the voting dynamics in Virginia, sort of a downside to the Electoral College, no?
I thought about not voting this year, but it was my youngest daughters first time to vote, so we did it early, and as a family. My candidate never wins of course...but I play the long game.
To whom it may concern:
DeleteBubba Clinton and Alf-fonzo Gore in the 2,000
Election - refused to allow the Military vote; even tho the votes were transported in Diplomat Pouches.
How quickly some forget. Or, how some just don't know.
That's when action had to be taken to STOP ALF.
You're referring to the Herron memo...except that County Supervisors in Florida still counted the overseas absentee ballot.....resulting an a Bush victory.
DeleteDoesn't appear to be what I wrote...but tell yourself whatever you need to.
DeleteInteresting that you seemingly don't have an issue with Trump 'demanding' that vote counting stop, when we're clearly in the phase of precincts counting military ballots [among other s mailed in].....
He said stop the Voting, not the counting
Deleteand, yes you acknowledged the Military votes were not to be counted by, the Dems. The Florida Officials had to step in.
Donald J. Trump
Delete@realDonaldTrump
STOP THE COUNT!

For what it's worth, HERE is Rasmussen's last Presidential approval rating before Election Day 2000:
ReplyDeleteThe Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that 52% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-eight percent (48%) disapprove.
The latest figures include 41% who Strongly Approve of the job Trump is doing and 41% who Strongly Disapprove.
Divided America! No matter who wins, approximately 50% of Americans will be dissatisfied with the election results.
Our Fathers, Uncles, Brothers, Grandfathers along with so many other patriot Americans fought, and died to protect our nation, our constitution, and our freedoms. Today, they are watching us from above, watching who and what we do today on this election day.
ReplyDeleteWill we vote for the man that will stand tall against our enemies. Or some weakling that will do whatever it takes to line his pockets with miney?
Voting is the least you can do to respect their service, and to preserve our country for out children, and our grandchildren. . They did our forefathers give their lives and limbs for a party that is hostile to America. They did not sacrifice for the politicians who actually say that they “want to fundamentally transform America” and destroy our Constitution by doing so!
Vote right my friends. Forget about those leftist that want to influence you by making fun out of the Priesident's Hair, or calling him those idiotic names like "Orange man', yes he may be a bit Crude, and act what they might think as "UN-Presidential" but he keeps on WINNING for us, and for America, he IS MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
where as Biden the Foolish Senile, guy that has completely lost it, has a FULL-BLOWN SOCIALIST STANDING IN THE WINGS TO REPLACE HIM AT ANY MINUTE. Vote for America.
The countries like Russia, Iran, China, would much prefer us to have a loser like Biden and traitors like Obama to bring is closer to their level.
ReplyDeleteWho says that they are? LOL!
DeleteAnyone want to take a stab at how their interpretation to those verses will change if Biden wins?
ReplyDeleteWe know from polling that while they apply those verse directly to Trump being chosen by God, they would not agree then that God chose Obama. Get ready for more mental gymnastics as the GOP suddenly will forget those verses, become budget hawks, whines about being steamrolled and more.
A Biden win, if it comes to pass, will cause heads to explode all over the place, especially in the White House as a defeated Trump ponders his legal exposure.
Good ‘Election Day’” everyone.
DeleteI did not the pleasure of being here at AOW’s during the last election, but I am so thankful to be here now amongst what I consider a ‘family’ of Republicans There is No better place on the internet to be on this Great Day of President Trumps re-electric day. And i am VERY proud to have casted my vote along with my husband for President Trump.
As I woke this morning, my first thought was to pray for our President, and the future of this Republic...and I will continue to do so throughout the rest of this day...for The Creator of Heaven and Earth hears our prayers.
Dave, I always find it so unpleasant when anyone uses Christianity as an ugly club.
DeleteI believe if Trump wins most Christians will know God is up to something we cannot understand, something that might bring us all to our knees, which would be a good thing.
As it is, I've always thought God was behind our country, one can't know the story of Sqaunto, for example, and not see that, so he is in control and the nightmare the Democrats have planned for us across the country should Trump win may not even be as bad as they've promised. Pray hard.
Alison, I just have to say what a lovely reply you printed here...thank you. I've been led to pray all morning so far...Maybe God is lowering our heads and putting the words in our hearts!? Glad to be praying with you. Glad you put aside any feelings about Trump's gruff demeanor like I've had to do and realized it's the works that count. God bless you and your husband!
DeleteZ... I left those comments elsewhere and a troll dragged them over here. But here's the rub and I've yet to have an evangelical give me a reasonable response...
DeleteIf Christians believe God put Trump in the WH, and that's based on their interpretation of Romans 13, why wouldn't they also believe that God put Obama, Bush, Clinton or any other president in the WH?
Or as is possible tonight, Biden?
It was a fascinating study that showed ppl who believed that theology, only believed it when their guy won. Very situational Christianity.
As I said above, that's something I've not heard from CHristians I know because most of them feel God is very much in control and, as I said above, if Biden and Harris win tonight and our country's borders are a mess again and corporations leave America creating less jobs here again, and our taxes go up (Please nobody believe the $400K line, I know Harris, I live in California) and our babies won't be fought for...and so many other things, then God has planned for us to suffer, to bring us even more to our knees. Only with a Biden/Harris/Ilhan/AOC/Pelosi (etc) agenda, even leftwingers will be brought to their knees. Anyone who's read the Bible knows bad stuff happens....we're promised it. Situational Christianity doesn't actually exist among Bible studiers...except in some odd articles or thinking you've done, apparently.
DeleteAOW, BY THE WAY....my computer could go 1000 emails before I got notice that my box was overflowing, now they warn me at about 450! is that true with yours, too?
ReplyDeleteAnd, man, I'm tired of getting the same stinkin' email or video from 20 people on the same day...I understand they want me informed, as if I'm not!, but....STOP STOP STOP!
Z,
DeleteGmail hasn't warned me. But the trouble is I get an avalanche of unwanted emails and can't find the emails I need to find.
And, yes, I get the same stinkin' email or video from 20 people on the same day -- not to mention the phone ringing off the hook.
Breaking smears. Get out your tar brushes, everyone... cuz everyone gets coated in tar!
ReplyDeleteJoe,
DeleteTypical HuffPo!
I guess a drug using person who had an affair with his brothers wife and couldn't afford child support for his mistress is above reproach.
ReplyDeleteDave Miller please leave God out of politics. But if you cant, do yourself, and everyone else a favor and do it at your Progressive friends blog
