What if this is a plan?

Okay this might sound like I just got off the crazy Train and maybe I am tired. I gratefully worked from home today hand had a chance to listen to Stephanie Miller, and Randi Rhodes as I work. Not to mention I fear going into work the next time I go.

I don't know if you have heard how Trump's "hand picked" person to run the post office is running the place but mail is being slowed down and some not deliver because the goal is to destroy trust and post office. In my opinion They are determine to mess with ballots,

You have the paramilitary group and ready to go into cities. Cities that are Largely diverse, Votes democratic and ( and please correct me if I am wrong) a lot of the listed cities are lead by people of color, women or both. They (the administration) keep saying they are going to deploy them.

In today or yesterday's "Press Conference" Trump indicated that a National plan is being looked into.

So what if they are waiting for the beginning of school when the virus starts spreading worse than now (it will happen if they are opening school like the ones around me are.) 3 weeks from the start we are going to see us neck deep in the 1st wave.

Trump and crew start suggesting we do need to shut down-- Late September.

October surprise hits and it is Trump deploying groups into cities and states to help local police enforce an national martial Law in the guise of "Lock down" because he has seen the light or new information indicates this is the only way -he can win the election- Keep America safe.

Oh and guess who will be stopping all protest, and "helping" out at the polls.

As I told someone else on the board.

We are not hearing the Dog whistle of Racism and we aren't hearing the Dog Bark of racism We are seeing and hearing the Caveman of Racism and sexism swinging his club and screaming.


Please talk sense into me.

But the last 20 years have shown how good the rethugs are at multi-faceted attacks and how deep their bank is. I am not as frightened of what we know they are trying to pull already as I am of the things they may have waiting in the wings.

minute, drop off at county office if possible.

If everyone votes, we win big and make remaining GOPers take notice.

BTW: Don’t have any real problem with Post Office becoming more efficient and maybe taking an extra day occasionally to deliver mail. Just don’t procrastinate, order ballots early and submit it in early.

Will he succeed, don't know, but it is inevitable that there is going to be ratf**king.
