I can't sleep. Good God in Butter I want Trump gone. There is no such thing as unsolicited ballots





President Obama's shirt is untucked but he is still looking CRISP …. look at the perfectly rolled up cuffs, not wrinkle on the shirt, some of the the vertical lines match his jeans, a hot wife/girlfriend next to him, and rocking the grey hair like he just don’t care.


Little wonder why Trump hates President Obama so much because he is everything that he will never be in as far as having class, style, cool, and smarts. He has a Paul Newman quality about him.

I bet you that Trump goes bat shit every time he hears the 2 words, President Obama.

How can this be?
Been sheltered in since March; my job has stopped ( financially ok);high risk health; and democracy in tatters, the world travels I used to do are an apocalypse scenario, RBG is gone

Thank God Biden is ahead. Just wondering. Can’t sleep either
P.s. God bless dear Obama too.

when I'm feeling particularly stressed or despondent, I don't know what I'd do.

I think I've always been a strong person, but this time is just so damned trying.

Stay strong, all. Stay committed. Everything is on the line. (and wishing you all the comfort of a happy pup or kitty, rabbit, or.... )

I’ve known for years that Republican Party is made up of racists, cheats, outright crooks, and power-hungry leaders willing to subvert the Constitution and democracy to stay in power forever. What I didn’t know was how close they were to overthrowing democratic government and installing themselves as the permanent party. In just over three years, we went from the sanity of the Obamas to the potential anarchy of the Trump era.

I hope Biden has a team of lawyers who are willing to fight hard against the tactics Trump plans to use to steal the election. They need to be prepared for every dirty trick they can think of, including ones that Trump hasn’t announced to the world. Is Trump just distracting us with the mail ballots while Russia is set to hack the votes? Thank goodness more states invested in voting machines with paper backups.

If Biden wins, and I think he will, we need stronger voting laws, but we also need a better system. I’m no techie, but wouldn’t it be possible to have the equivalent of a totally separate Internet system solely for voting with no possible access to any foreign country? Also, we need to take the programming out of the hands of voting machine manufacturers or make it routine that such programs are verified by outside auditors to avoid cheating.
