It is certainly possible that it was Ben Franklin but I just saw a giant amongst the people at the front and kneel and bow his head with them. I understood from that visual that it must be a “giant amongst men” or someone important which would certainly fit the bill. I’m still getting to know the imagery and what it means in my visions and that was a new one for me.
My first reaction to this image was that the giant was Obama, participating physically (not virtually) this fall in a protest against voter suppression.
@sistermoon I am from NJ. Some of you might remember Superstorm Sandy. It hit at the end of October, 2012. My husband and I had plans to fly to San Diego during this timeframe.. I decided to vote early. There was only a small window of time to do this. It was before the storm or knowledge of the storm. We were in San Diego for the first week of November. I remember learning that Obama had won re-election while we were there. When we returned, we still didn’t have power. I spoke with poll workers who worked that day. It was a marathon effort, but they pulled it off by using lamps from home and backup generators. So when historians say we voted through a Civil War, a World War, you name it, we have done it! We find a way. We will find a way now too. I believe Democrats will crawl over broken glass this time to vote!

I saw an article today about Trump replacing Pence with Nikki Haley. I don't remember the context, or who said it or where I saw it...but I saw it and thought of this thread.
Ghandigirl, it wouldn't surprise me, especially since Kamala is Biden's VP pick.
@deetoo and @ghandigirl, Meghan McCain has speculated that Trump will replace Pence. GOP operative and CNN contributor speculated that the odds that Trump will replace Pence with Haley is "overwhelming", because he needs a woman on the ticket to match Kamala. Betting sites are showing Haley's odds rising.
He may want to replace her but will she want the ticket? She left her previous UN Ambassador position after just under 2 years. She has been able to distance herself (sorta) so far. Would she take the risk?
I know many here have see her as a possible VP candidate but that is a big political risk. It will be interesting to see what she might do if offered the slot.
@lovendures. If offered, I think she will take it because she knows she could end up in the presidency if she does. Also she is good at playing herself up. She's been doing that game all along - supports him while trying to sound more reasonable. She comes across to me as a cold blooded ambitious politician in sheep's clothing.
@jeanne, I totally agree with your assessment of Haley. She's very shrewd. She wouldn't take it if she knew for certain that she'd remain T's VP ... no way in hell does she want to totally hitch her wagon to T. But would she play along to get along, if she suspects he'll most likely be booted out of there or possibly quit because of a scandal? Then yes, I believe she'd go for it. I said this once before and I'll say it again: I believe all of this is actively being discussed behind closed doors with a group of R operatives.
Does it matter if Haley gets to be on the ticket? Would people be inclined to vote for Trump all of a sudden? I don't see it. You'd still get Trump and the crazy crookedness of the GOP.
@moonbeam there is something appealing about her . She comes across very compétant . I could see people thinking she could have a calming effect and telling themselves - well if she can join up maybe he is ok. It worries me.
Wolf in sheep’s clothing.
I'm going to make a prediction that IF tRumpus does replace Pence with Nikki Haley, it won't change the amount of people coming out to vote - in person, by mail, however they can -- in droves for Biden and Harris. Perhaps people see/saw Haley on the podium (I myself kept seeing Haley during this timeframe in the news when I participated in the 11/11/19 Read the future night). Even IF that happens, she would be on the podium then because I don't necessarily see tRumpus there.
I feel when the Orange nightmare loses this election, he won't do a traditional changing of the guard, so he won't be there when Biden and Harris are sworn in.
@moonbeam @triciact - the Lincoln Project and other Repubs for Biden have made clear that they are all in - meaning that anyone like Haley who has been a Trump enabler is their target as well. Unlike Kamala - "Nikki" (whose real name is Namrata) has changed literally everything about herself to appeal to the "hard right" base. IDK even know what she actually stands for at all - she's a chameleon who shifts colors when convenient and depending on what is surrounding her. She doesn't stand for anything authentic - and more people than ever are aware of it now. She lacks empathy and compassion and those are qualities that I believe folks are really longing for right now.
I wonder if anyone else here sees this (I am sensing something about the USPS situation). I feel like Jeff Bezos or his ex-wife might try to help the post office by infusing money to them. Just something I am sensing ...and wondering if anyone else does too?
@triciact, hmm ... that's an interesting idea. I'm going to pull some cards later today. I'm still a novice with reading them, but let's see what I come up with.
@seeker4, it's hard to say how P would react. On a personal level he might feel very offended, but if he believes it's part of a bigger plan? P is part of that group of "Christians" who believe that T was chosen by the Almighty as part of a divine plan. I once read in The Atlantic that P believes in a scriptural concept evangelicals call “servant leadership." T. offers a kind of salvation to both P and the religious right, because their ultimate goal is to establish a government based on their understanding of biblical law. So T is the imperfect vehicle through whom they hope to achieve that goal. In their warped view, the end justifies the means.
I don't know what is in P's heart, nor do I know what he's really thinking. Underneath his potted plant demeanor, what I do sense is that he's ambitious as hell. P would probably love his Master to be booted out of there, so the Servant could take over. I have a feeling that P believes that HE is actually the Chosen One!
I agree with you about Haley and I always sense a ruthlessness about her, that and powerful ambition. Haley overcame her distain of Trump to become an ardent supporter and I believe she stepped down from the UN ambassadorship in order to position herself politically. If Trump is going to replace Pence with her, we should know by next week since that's the Republican National Convention.
Funny you mention Bezos because my son and I were just discussing the possibility of Bezos aiding the ailing USPS. Bezos ultimately would like to be completely independent of the USPS, but for now, Amazon is still heavily dependent on the postal service. The thing with Bezos is that he holds things tightly until he's ready to act. There are not a lot of leaks that come out of Amazon.
@deetoo I find it so interesting how easily these so-called Christians associate themselves with immorality and dirty tactics "in the name of the Lord." Yeah, Right. It should be CLEAR by now that Trump has no intention of establishing a government based on biblical law. Most people believe that Pence's ambition is driven by his wife whom everyone in the WH including Pence call "mother". And, if I'm correct, I cannot imagine what it is like for him to go out and lie for Trump when he knows better. It's also interesting that some Republicans did wonder if they would have a better chance of keeping the WH if they impeached Trump and replaced him with Pence. However, they were also aware that Pence was no shoe-in. Poor things--they have no honorable options. Based on the membership in The Lincoln Project, the number of Republicans speaking at the Democratic Convention, and the number of Republicans who have formally left the GOP, they don't have too many good options.
