Looking at how many MORE supporters hes gained is really a punch in the gut. Just because Biden might win, Trumpism isnt going anywhere. Lock em up.

When I went to bed this was on page 509, now it’s page 540. I’ve read through every page and post. Watching the slow freakout of this not being a landslide has certainly been something. People voted for Gary Johnson only so they could find out the true mystery of what exactly is Aleppo. There’s no mechanism for this! But no mechanism for this NO MECHANISM Why hasn’t someone explained to Trump that he doesn’t have a mechanism for this? There’s absolutely no mechanism for this, or so I’ve been assured by the scholars of this forum. The SCOTUS should be contacted ahead of time so they’re aware that there’s no mechanism for this YOU KNOW DAMN WELL THAT THERE’S NO MECHANISM, BUDDY No one claimed it was definite, the worry was always, and still is, the ATTEMPT of it and the repercussions of such an attempt. But, yo, no mechanism! Here’s the problem: if the DNC split into the two parties it represents, wall-street/big-business liberals and democratic-socialists, the GOP would win every god damn election every time. Now, if the GOP somehow split into Reagan-Republican Party and the Trump-Dipshit Party as well, cool. Dude, whatever. People like Jason et al were being unbelievably irrational from the very beginning saying that Trump would definitely steal this. My issue was never with your points.

Nah I know mostly referring to Florida. I have too many Cuban friends with Cuban parent's who keep posting #cubansfortrump and saying that they only care for Cuba's freedom.
