No , I never have not close but I do realize you are the dumbest in the room and with every post you keep proving it.

Edit. Nevermind. Have a blessed day.

If anyone wants to listen to music that just mellows you out, listen to Jesse Rice. It's like a new era Jimmy Buffett (#RIP to a true legend).

As she campaigns, a wave of high-powered support has rallied behind Vice President Kamala Harris. Eight hundred sixty-six venture capitalists, collectively representing $276 billion in assets, joined the "VCsForKamala" initiative. This unusual backing includes notable tech industry figures such as Mark Cuban, Reid Hoffman and Vinod Khosla, who are endorsing her economic and entrepreneurial vision for America, according to a recent report from Business Insider.

Another powerful endorsement came from a collective letter signed by 88 leaders across Wall Street and Silicon Valley, noting that Harris represents the "best way to support the continued strength, security and reliability of our democracy and economy." This endorsement also sheds light on Harris's support for small businesses – a segment often vulnerable to policy changes.

So was talking to a couple of my MAGA friends (Yes I have friends who are MAGA and I have liberal friends too) and they were jumping all over three stories of election fraud." A Chinese student voting in Michigan, a video of ballots being destroyed in Pennsylvania and leaked voting machine passwords in Colorado as proof the election was being stolen. They actually believe all these were evidence the Dems were in the process of stealing the election. I pointed out the first was their best example as it clearly undermines Dem opposition to voter ID efforts, but the guy was Chinese and seemed to make an effort to get caught (Chinese interference maybe??) The 2d was an outright fake video created by Russia and the last was incompetence and a mole hill that was being made into a mountain. Of course, they didn't accept any of my analysis and continue to believe it was all true (their counter argument on the Russian fake- FBI as a source really????)

I see Trump's election fraud move as another of his attacks that undermine the United States. MAGA will accept no result as legitimate that doesn't end with Trump as the winner. This is destabilizing. We saw what happened in 2020-2021, I expect it to be worse this time.

In 2020 Trump showed he was willing to burn the United States to the ground if it benefited him, he is showing that again.

Would you be so kind as to provide your responses where you actually accepted the evidence in links provided by posters who do not share your opinion?

You are the pot calling the kettle black my friend. Right down to the name-calling.

The late momentum seems to have shifted to Harris.

Just want to point of the 740 national security people who signed that document 231 were flag officers and I didn't even count the senior enlisted on the list, at this point I'm pretty sure there are more retired flag officers publicly opposing Trump than there are publicly supporting him (I am less confident about senior retired enlisted though). As for overall veteran support prior to 2016 veterans of the officer rank supported GOP more than Black voters supported Dems and over all Vet support exceeded 85%. Now Trump gets about 60% of Vet support.

My election prediction. Kamala beats Donny to become the POTUS 47. She wins 308-230 in the electoral college. She wins NV, WI, MI,PA, GA and NC. She wins 6 of the 7 swing states. She gets 52% of popular vote. I predict the gop flips the Senate by winning a 1-3 seat majority but the Dems flip the House by winning a 5-15 seat majority.

If Trump wins the difference will be her mistake in picking Walsh. Does anyone still not consider that to have been a mistake? If Harris wins it will be because of the GOP cross over/anti-Trump vote (after all Trump said he didn't need them and followed thru by sidelining Haley and DeSantis).

I think the biggest factor if Harris wins, the female vote. She gets historic amounts including wives of those maga.

About six-in-ten registered voters who say they have served in the U.S. military or military reserves (61%) support former President Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election, while 37% back Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a Pew Research Center survey conducted in early September.

He's an angry ex-GF that also gets paid huge money for government contracts that he clearly benefits more from if Harris is president:

And you can call me MAGA or MAGA'ish all you want, I have said multiple times that I'm not voting for him. But I'm not going to listen to all of this non-sense that Harris is anything less than a horrendous candidate. There is just no way you can watch any interview of hers where there is no teleprompter, where you want her leading the free-world. There just isn't. It's just hating Trump. Cut off your nose to spite your face.

About That Claim Trump Said 'Only Suckers Went to Vietnam'

Believe it or not but there is this..................
Gen. John Kelly, who was Trump's chief of staff when the alleged comments were made, confirmed that Trump did call American troops "losers" and "suckers." However, it was unclear whether he witnessed the comments firsthand or heard about them from someone else, or from news reports. Trump and his allies denied the accusations, though they have not responded to the above anecdote cited in this October 2024 story.

Per the October 2024 Atlantic story, former Trump administration officials including Kelly shared stories of Trump's admiration for autocrats like Adolf Hitler, and his past comments on the military. According to the book, "The Divider: Trump in the White House" Trump asked his then-chief of staff, Kelly "Why can't you be like the German generals?" Kelly told Trump the German generals "tried to kill Hitler three times and almost pulled it off." But Trump responded, "No, no, no, they were totally loyal to him."

Kelly gave The Atlantic additional details about the above exchange:

[Kelly] told me that when Trump raised the subject of "German generals," Kelly responded by asking, "'Do you mean Bismarck's generals?'" He went on: "I mean, I knew he didn't know who Bismarck was, or about the Franco-Prussian War. I said, 'Do you mean the kaiser's generals? Surely you can't mean Hitler's generals? And he said, 'Yeah, yeah, Hitler's generals.' I explained to him that Rommel had to commit suicide after taking part in a plot against Hitler." Kelly told me Trump was not acquainted with Rommel.

As we have reported before, Trump received four student deferments, then was disqualified from serving except in a time of war or national emergency after a medical examination found he had bone spurs in both heels. We confirmed Trump's deferment history via Selective Service records obtained from the U.S. National Archives by The Smoking Gun in 2011.

i went at 6:45, i was out of the building just before 8

there was some just getting started down time at 7 that contributed to the delay

Kamala said she raised 1.5 billion on a call with dnc fund raising. Her campaign ended in debt and is trying to still raise money after losing.

Trump raised 380-400 million.

Going back and re-reading, Walz was a terrible pick as VP…I thought that was evident at the time, but a lot of defenders here.

The Never Trump movement made a lot of money and delivered nothing. Will the democrats continue to embrace the big paycheck chasing Bill Kristol, Steve Schmidt, Rick Wilson, Tom Nichols, Liz Chaney, etc? These guys are making a fortune off the Dems…I gotta salute them for that. And in a Democratic world of identity politics, they give large space to white, old boomers….thats what makes me giggle.

Harris wasn’t a good candidate, she hid from her positions and American people could see it. The media tried their best to dress her up with overwhelming positive coverage and her large rich, elitist Democrat base gave her 1.5 billion

The fact Democrats couldn’t censor social media coverage like they did in 2020 was a big impact as well.
