that drumph can win any votes is appauling

What have we become? He's under threat of various charges in courts. There is a daily tirade of hatred and threats to HRC and others. Like the media people covering his events.

He gets a pass for hundreds of lies. One or two ought to have finished him off.

CNN giving out lies re drumphs "rise"

Claiming he is ahead in Nevada etc etc

I have to think they are very bad at reporting or hope to keep this race close in their imagination - for ratings.

Troubles in America

One of the big issues in this country is that its divided into 50 states. The election process is a federal one and ought to be run under federal laws. We ought to have the same voting registration process for everyone. Eliminate these bigots who want to suppress votes.

Gerrymandering should be illegal. A federal system for boundaries would be better. Independently run. ANd perhaps decided more than once every 10 years?

Finally, the electoral college idea is defunct. Lets have a simple popular vote for POTUS?

Time to avoid all cable "news" channels indefinitely

For me from today.

They just churn out the same rubbish day after day.

A collection of short segments punctuated with long sessions of ads.

So until election night good riddance.

Stock market drops thanks to cable tv

The coverage of the FBI / emails crap worried people that drump might have some chance of winning.

Serves them right.
