It is becoming quite obvious...

looking through Facebook this weekend the trumpettes have shared numerous videos of trump boat parades and trump truck parades (yes, we had one yesterday in Harrison, Ohio not far from me) that they are certain that trump will win in a landslide.

Forget the polling which has some science applied to it and says otherwise, 'we got alota trucks and boats with trump flags on them and we got trump signs in our yards' and in their world this spells landslide. They will be crushed and I'm sure they won't take defeat lying down, not a slight Biden win and certainly not a convincing one.

I will be in delight by saying Biden won, get over it but I am still trying to ascertain what angry MAGATs are capable of doing.

I'm not spending thousands of hard earned dollars to screw up the paint job with some advertising for anyone or any subject.

Besides, has any ONE mind ever been changed because of a bumper sticker or yard sign?

which reads, "Not my circus, not my monkeys."

It will come off when Biden/Harris win!

there will be a 2:1 turnout for Biden/Harris on election day, including early voters. The election will be decided election night. These people who support Trump, (mostly racists,) will have a rude awakening.

Here's why I think this way:

1. 250K plus deaths is a politically insurmountable obstacle.
2. America has had enough. Many who voted Trump in 2016 will vote Biden or not vote at all.
3. Trump knows he is toast and is using bluster and BS to continue to fleece the rubes and fill his pockets to finance his next venture, (TrumpTV??)
4. 2018 proved his campaign strategy of fear and loathing is a guaranteed loser.


Of course, anything is possible and our job one is GOTV! but I'm pretty confident this thing is over for Trump and he knows it. I also don't think he'll try to stay in office after defeat. I think his focus is on getting as much cash as possible and getting onto his next grift, however, that is just a hunch.

I just spent a couple of days driving around southwest Missouri and northeast Oklahoma.

I saw ONE Trump yard sign, and ONE trump truck flag. No republican governor or state office signs either.

They could have all been at the lake floating around...but, I have never seen so little support for republican candidates in southwest Missouri.
