I actually think the time between Nov 3 and Jan 20th, should Trump lose, will be one of the most dangerous times this country has seen domestically in a couple of centuries.
There's been a lot written on the topic, actually. Which is insane.
Did anyone ever write an article because we were afraid Obama or a Bush wouldn't leave office? Of freaking course not...

I have several people on facebook that post Corona is going to disappear November 3rd. I am assuming that implies it is a democratic hoax to get Biden elected. So let's say Biden wins and Corona does NOT go away on November 3rd? I'd like to see how they are going to spin that because why would democrats keep up a hoax intending to get Trump out of office if they succeed? And obviously if Trump wins and Coronoa virus does not go away that's the democrats doubling down to get him out before he finishes his second term. I really want to know what these people smoke because it sounds like it would do a good job of getting me out of my head for awhile. A couple of people on my board said the same thing. They are both intelligent people in the medical field so I asked them to elaborate. They said they know the virus is real (obviously - they are in healthcare), but they believe the media has hyped the virus to help get Trump out of office. They believe that after Biden is in office that a more positive spin will start to develop. I cannot stand Trump and absolutely do not want him re-elected but, when explained to me that way, I'm not sure they are altogether wrong. The virus is definitely not going to disappear but I wouldn't be surprised if certain media outlets don't start focusing some of their efforts elsewhere.
Maybe that will happen in some areas, I doubt it will happen in mine. IMO the virus is not about Trump, to me it feels like only Trumpers believe such nonsense. There are lots of articles still to be written like for example how long it takes people to recover from a bad case of Covid and how many regain their lung and heart function and how many do not. Recently I read about deals made with three big senior care companies in NJ regarding Covid patients. Stuff like this will continue to come out. Coverage will change simply because of where we are in the pandemic. Sure Biden addressing it will help, but I'd be surprised if most media outlets are willing to risk their profits under some weird assumption that covering Covid thoroughly will hurt Trump's re-election chances. |

There's said to be a reason all of the flowers are all white in it. |

I have a large dog and a large knife in my bedroom. The dog's job is to slow the rapist down until I can grab the knife.  The back story is I ordered a knife on Amazon for camping. I accidentally ordered the wrong one and ended up with a weapon with a 12" long blade. It became bedroom protection, mostly as a joke because it's so damn huge. “This is a knife.” - Crocodile Dundee.  |

Remember Tulsa? It is presumed that is where Howard Cain was exposed to covid. He later died--and his twitter account has posted from the grave.

Hmm - Maybe Darwin will pay the no maskers a visit. Might even have a positive impact on the average IQ of the southwestern US. |

I am hoping this will be the straw that breaks MIL's need to vote for Trump. She is part of the Christian group that has to twist herself into a pretzel to explain why God would send this guy. She has been unhappy with his response to CV. I am hoping that finding out he was gambling with her (older, diseased riddled) life will be enough for her to vote Biden. She can keep all the other R's in power- Senate. House, State, Local, etc. I know that is my Dad's plan. Tell her she doesn't need to vote for Biden. She just can't vote for Trump. Biden will win by default by those of us who like him. |

They say we are a swing state, but they said that in 2016 and by mid October, Trump was a lock. If we have a chance of giving Biden some electoral votes, he is going to need every vote he can get. |

I have friends who retired and now split their time between Tucson and San Diego. They are purposefully choosing to register to vote in AZ because they want to help "swing" the state. |
