Dems, big media, social App's, Hollywood, Prime time TV, ESPN have been very effective at blaming Trump for every thing wrong and people seem to be eating it up, including many here. Try doing a little research as to what has been accomplished by this administration against the worst political, media, social app, law fare climate any president has EVER faced. But, but, but, Iran.........Wake the fuck up, Sweet Jesus, try some due diligence!!!! WTF!

So... my GF works with the general public and has regulars. The food industry, not what you're thinking you sickos. She just told me that one of her customers told her that when he went to vote, he had already voted. He lives in Glen Spey but had "already voted" in Monticello. Had to sign something saying that he in fact did not vote and then was able to proceed voting. This just shows the shenanigans that go on with all of this. How important is all this if you can get away with fraud in the first place and then vote "again" anyway.

Takes me back to being a kid. We had this old craftsman lawn tractor. Well, actually my neighbor had it and I was friends with their kid (Jeff). Jeff and his dad re-geared it, I was there watching and helping, mostly watching ha. We used to ride it around the fields near the house after all the corn was harvested. That thing was fast as hell.

I don't love or hate Trump. He has done some good that I am appreciate of. He's also done things I wish he hadn't. I voted for him 3 times.


I voted to put America first.
I voted to stop all these foreign wars.
I want to make America great.
I voted to get rid of the illegals.
I voted for integrity and to fix a broken political system and to fight the swamp and hold people accountable.
I voted to secure the election process.


I got about half of what I voted for.

The flow of illegals has essentially stopped and many are being rounded up and others are electively self deporting so they don't end up getting sent on a one way ticket to Liberia.
This is absolutely tremendous. I'm very thankful for this and our country desperately needed it. President Trump has done the entire country a great service with this political battle. I'm absolutely giving credit where it's due.

I am frustrated because I thought way more evil Democrats would have been held accountable. Its just bread and circus and Trump getting richer off absolute non sense like Trump coin. Its fucking pathetic that no one of any clout has been taken down for Epstein files. That alone shows how corrupt and unfixable the country is. I want people locked up and held accountable. Its never going to happen (except maybe to our side :eye roll:)

I voted to stay out of wars, we electively got into a war doing our Greatest ally's work for them as they gave an Irish goodbye and left us holding the bag and now the world is worse off, gas is higher, inflation is higher, CPI is increasing, and the US has strategically weakened our position around the world, we have depleted critical stockpiles of missiles we need as a credible deterrent to China and North Korea.

Trump is human. He's done some good, and he's done some bad. He's hardly a saint. I think he has really lost his way and I'm not sure if it's his ego or advisors or what but he can't stay focused on any one thing long enough to actually drive it through to a conclusion. Many of these foreign policy decisions are just short sighted instant gratification lacking strategic foresight.

Not sure why you feel the need to be sarcastic to me because I only partly think Trump is doing a good job???

I call them how I see them. I make my own opinions, I don't listen to what others tell me to think.

Haven’t you heard??? If you’re not pleased with what Trump has done you have full blown TDS.

I specifically voted to not get into more wars and to avoid foreign entanglements. I voted for a lower cost of living.

Yet...here we are....

Not sure why I would be happy about it?

I think it's odd that so many people are willing to change their opinions just because it's "their guy" or "their team" that did something they wouldn't like if the other side did.

I have 0 problems at all praising Trump when he does things I appreciate or like. But I can't disagree or I'm a traitor? That sounds like a cult...

Not really, IMO anyway. Like myself, I think many others accept that some people do not like Trump for whatever their reason(s). Not everybody is going to agree on everything he does or says, and that's to be expected.

Then there's TDS; it's not the same thing. Some people dislike Trump in the same manner I dislike Obama. But it's a rational dislike; TDS is a whole other thing, especially when it comes to severe TDS. :2cents:

TDS is very real, there are people that completely short circuit at the mere mention of his name or seeing a red hat or a picture of him. They lose all self control and go feral.

Several counties reported voting equipment problems, scanner rejections, technical delays, and ballots diverted into emergency boxes on Election Day. Below is a breakdown of the reports based on local news, official statements, and voter accounts on social media. It will be updated throughout the day if more issues arise. Westchester County, New York. Ballot scanners across the county stopped accepting paper ballots shortly after polls opened at 6 a.m. The Westchester County Board of Elections initially blamed ballot thickness, then issued a revised statement citing “an issue involving paper ballots.” Voters were directed to place completed ballots in designated orange emergency ballot bags for later counting

Election Day in America - Ground Reports and Reader Feedback - The Last Refuge

Today is election day in America. Depending on who you talk to, follow or review, opinions & predictions are all over the place. What really matters is what YOU DO and ultimately the scale of voter turnout. After years of watching UniParty politics, back in 2015 I said it really didn’t matter...

You're not wrong...it's a non zero possibility. And judging by all the election shenanigans it's in the realm of possibilities.

Probably not likely, because NY already knows it's a blue state and our votes here are of minimal consequence to the bigger picture.

Last year for my local elections one of my council members was at the polling place arguing with people to vote for him. I showed up to vote and there were Democrat campaign materials on the table to vote where you fill out your ballot. I asked the poll worker if it was allowed. She didn’t even look up from knotting her whatever she was knitting. I asked again and she told me I could remove them if I wanted to. I asked isn’t it your job? I complained to the county board of elections and they said they couldn’t do anything because they were there when they vitiated. I had pictures of this. They don’t care.

Something stinks in NY. I cannot believe that we do not have enough gun owners in NY to elect Pro 2nd Amendment Republicans. FYI, many Democrats own guns too, but apparently, they are voting for a Party that is trying to ban their guns. Make it make sense.
Click to expand...
Why do people keep saying this? NYS is one of the lowest gun ownership dates in the USA. Polls show about 20% of houses own guns. Many democrats own guns so how does this equate to a winning recipe for republicans in NYS? This boggles my mind and how this lie is perpetrated over and over again.

This is (in many people's opinions) the nation's preeminent election forecaster's projections.

If this more or less comes to pass we can definitively conclude that trump's adventures in the middle east were the most perfectly idiotic thing to do in a midterm election year in many decades, and substantially responsible for what would be a generationally historic drubbing in midterms. Texas hasn't elected a democrat to the senate since 1988. Kansas hasn't since 1932.

We should know in 12 hours or so how accurate these are.

And what’s the plus minus on the polls? All within margin of error.

AP declares Hochul as victor in NYS. This sucks. It’s a joke. 13% reporting and nothing finalized yet, but she wins.

Even that one is hard to believe. They say 53% reporting, but only about 8/90 counties show leaning one way or another. They wonder why people think there is something hinky with our elections. BTW I guessed on the counties because it doesn’t really matter, but very few counties have actually reported in per this map.

If the only thing DJT did was close the borders, he still would be the finest President of my exceptionally long life.

But he did much more. I take Iran on its word that the moment they had Nuclear Tipped Ballistic Missiles that they'd send them flying. He knew it was a bad move, politically, but absolutely necessary.

The first nuke to land on Tel Aviv would be instantly reciprocated by a multitude of similar missiles launched by Israel's highly secretive submarine fleet.

Mushroom clouds would crowd the Middle East, leading to worldwide repercussions.

And people think things are bad now, that gas is costly.

Still, Trump has made major errors. Falling for the COVID HYSTERIA a really big one.

And tonight really sucks, as I feared it would.

Massachusetts and much of this country is populated by idiots.

Trump MUST go full Lincoln while he still can.
