@enkasongwriter. The 2028 return to strength and normalcy is not necessarily about pandemics and it may not even be about the markets. I have come to believe it was a vision about our Collective overall well being, which includes the true economy (not reflected in the stock market), about our Collective health, physical and emotional.
In some states voters can change their vote. As far as ballots not sure they can be changed or would be. I read recently, the party could appoint someone else, it makes the most sense to put Pence at the top of the ticket. He has leverage, he knows things. That feels more true to a party who would elevate ACB. Some have predicted Pence takes over to pardon and then gives power back. His entire fortune is on the line, I can’t rule anything out, except deception about his condition and chaos for cover. We are in a dangerous place, as his finances have been outed and his son testifies today.
@Jeanne-Mayell following up on your vision of 2028. You called it a return to normalcy what time frame in US history would this be? Your vision is a relief, and I wonder if I experienced it before or missed it. It could be just me, I have always been hyper alert to US engagement in the world, local politics and social issues. Thank you.
I read an article on the internet yesterday about what would happen if the clown dies or withdrawls. It's complicated respecially since ballets have already been printed and mailed in some states. I can't remember all of it, it's a little over my paygrade. But basically Pence would be the nominee and I believe the party would appoint a VP? Not sure.
We need to put as much positive vibs toward Biden as wecan for the next month. I have been visualizing him taking the oath with a big smile on his face. Today my best friend started aying she was worried, I told her to get that thought out of her hed and put a positive on e in there.
I just signed up for the Medittion tonight. I hope I did it right! We'll see tonight. Looking forward to it.
I am getting "pings" that Bob Barr is also coming down with Covid-19. At first, he was adamant that he would not quarantine.. and... all of a sudden... he is quarantining and has not posted latest test results as negative...remember.. he was all up in Kellyanne's personal space, especially when she leaned in to whisper in his ear. It would be even more devastating to the GOP to lose the chief legal enabler to the orange one.

I grew up in the mountains of Southwestern Virginia, but moved to Southeastern Virginia near the coast decades ago for school and then work. The mountains in Virginia are usually cooler and less humid, and I have to admit I'm over the heat and humidity of coastal Virginia. This summer has been especially brutal. I'm hoping to find my way back to the mountains, especially before climate change gets any worse.
You're vision feels right on. A broken shell.
Thanks for the Fiddler quote. Did it on Broadway. Perfect for the situation!
Morning all,
Sorry for the mood last night, just disgusted. Back and ready to fight the good fight. Will make a donation to Biden in T.'s name today. ?
I'm with Tricia, looking forward to the day when his name is a topic people don't bring up at all, because it's a hated topic, and we can look back on his stolen presidency as just a really dark time in American politics.
Anyone want some tomatoes? ?
I thought I saw a headline early this morning that said Giuliani accidentally admitted Barr was sick, but I can't find it. Still looking.
@jeanne-mayell When do you see COVID no longer a concern in the US? I feel it would be Spring of next year the earliest, which correlates to Biden getting inaugurated.
I believe Barr is quite ill, not sure it’s covid but he is dealing with something.
At some point we need to purify the Whitehouse and balance the rose garden. Weird this year has had two rose garden horrors.
It was along those lines, but I thought the headline said Giuliani blurted out on air that Barr was positive.
He’s leaving hospital at 6:30 pm “feeling better than I have in 20 years”.
That’s the steroids talking. Nevertheless, he’s going home.
Please excuse my French but Im livid. This [removed] joke excuse for a POTUS just tweeted "don't be afraid of the coronavirus" and that he "feels 20 years younger." Its an obvious lie but what [removed] is he doing? I live in Wisconsin, which is by far the worst in the country right now and getting worse by the minute. Evers has a mask mandate that half the people and all of law enforcement ignore. I have twin 2 year old foster boys with respiratory, as well as other, issues and a wife and daughter that I'm doing my damnedest to keep safe and this stupid [removed] goes and fuels the jackasses up here to keep refusing to wear masks. I cant even take the kids for a walk around my neighborhood without seeing half a dozen drinking parties and the park across the street is off limits because 50 kids and coaches are having maskless football practice daily. This [removed] waste of skin is endangering my family and others more than ever. [removed] These imbecile cultists of his need to see what covid really does and the only way they will ever learn is all get it themselves(which ignites more spread and hurts innocent people) or by watching his pompous ass suffer the full consequences of covid. [removed]
If I offended anyone I apologize but I needed to get that out for my own sanity.

With Pence or Haley running instead of Trump, you won't have all the WH led anarchy you would with DT so that is a positive. Also, the presidency is not the most important race. The house and senate races, especially without Trump, are most important, as you go back to having a true check on the presidency that can be used without fear of civil war or mass bloodshed that you would with Trump.
It's true... nobody drives the mania quite like He Who Shall Not Be Named. I was talking to my very fervid follower mother (who is quite upset about his diagnosis, BTW). She mentioned that my even more fervid follower aunt is even more upset about his COVID diagnosis than the very concerning and could be cancer health issues that my uncle has been having recently.
It's bananas.
But I wanted to say that as important as the presidential, House and Senate races are, don't forget the local and state races. I was talking to a close friend of mind who is a data scientist. He said that some of his prominent data science colleagues have been running analyses on the various races, and according to them, the best "bang for your buck" value in political contributions are the state legislature races. Specifically, they point to Texas' state legislature.
The reason is the budgets for those races are low (less than mid-five figures vs. millions), and they control the re-districting, among other things.
So even if your contribution (or volunteering for that matter) is small, it can still make a big difference!
.@JDiamond1: “I was told by a source close to the White House that as recently as this morning, the President’s advisors were telling him to stay in the hospital.”
This will not work out well for him.
In other news, Eric T is testifying today. T must also be flipping out about that.
Insanity reigns.
