it will be the biggest IOKIYAR ever.
I cannot even imagine the insanity of that madman getting another 4 years. Deeply hated by the left, no doubt will have lost the popular vote again, certainly only winning by serious cheating, the country mired in crisis and major debt.
Will the media really fucking overlook all that and normalize him again???
I fucking can't.

(1,648 posts)That is literally the elephant shit left lying around everywhere in the U.S. Congress and radicalized the SCOTUS more conservatively.
Everyone knows Russia helped and hacked for tRUMP in 2016, but Putin would have known that tRUMP would not be able to help him much if the Democratic Party had the House and he would be screwed immediately if the Democratic Party got the Senate. Why give tRUMP so much help without giving him the power to do anything meaningful to help him?
It is also a motive for most Republicans not being interested in investigating Russia and exposing the fraud if they are tied to it. Everyone laughed at Mitt Romney's comment about Russia being the biggest threat in the 2012 Debate against President Obama, but how much did he suspect or know then about his fellow Republicans?

Oh sure the last year they have begun to report his crap, but they are five years too late.

moonscape
(5,722 posts)I stop all news, total blackout, and live my last short years watching movies with all loved ones understanding they are not to mention any news.
I did this for 6 weeks starting just before he went to Finland because that trip and the Kavanaugh discussions combined to put me over the edge.
Its tricky though because there was no way to get even local news selectively. During that time a friend in Oregon complained about smoke and I was clueless as to the fired there. Clueless about everything but must admit it was nice to reclaim some mental space.
