Steve Schmidt, a co-founder of the anti-Trump Lincoln Project, declared that a fly that landed on Vice President Pence during Wednesday night's debate "is always seen as a mark of the devil," drawing mockery on social media.
"I don't think it's ever a good sign when a fly lands on your head for two minutes," the MSNBC contributor, who managed the late Sen. John McCain's (R-Ariz.) 2008 presidential run, said during post-debate coverage on the network early Thursday.
"That's a sign all through history of sin, and historically, biblically, maybe you wouldn't normally say this — it’s only safe to say this after midnight ... but a fly, he who commands the fly is always seen historically as a mark of the devil," Schmidt added.
Host Ari Melber chuckled at the comment before asking Schmidt to confirm that he was joking and noting that the fly could have landed on anyone.
"But it didn’t. It landed on Mike Pence. And it says something, maybe something karmic about the status of the campaign as it implodes," Schmidt said, appearing to be serious.
"On the fact check, what Steve Schmidt has said about the [polling] numbers is true. What he said about the ultimate moral reckoning of whether the fly connotes evil or devil or Nosferatu is above my pay grade. But I can’t confirm it," Melber said in response.

The first was his absolute and obvious contempt for the two women with whom he shared the stage.

Is It Time to Call in the U.N. Elections Monitors?

I'm serious. This is a job for those folks that Jimmy Carter ran with overseas, who knew kabuki democracy when it punched them in the nose. In yet another sentence I never thought I'd write: Tom Friedman is right. The call to ratfcking is right out in the open now, straight from the Truman balcony and streaming outward, like industrial runoff into a river, to all points of the compass.
But Friedman is too limited in his thinking. While the president* has brought it out into the open, rigging elections through manifestly discriminatory means has been a vital part of Republican electoral strategy since William Rehnquist was bullyragging Hispanic voters in Arizona back in the early 1960s. It has reached a positive frenzy ever since Chief Justice John Roberts declared the Day of Jubilee in Shelby County v. Holder. Now, all that's different is that nobody is pretending any more.

Biden will win, polls say. But the stock market is sending a different signal
Since 1928, whenever the S&P 500 Index of the largest U.S. stocks has risen in the three months prior to a presidential election, the party that controlled the White House won 90% of the time. It has risen.
“If you think about it intuitively, it makes sense,” says Julian Emanuel, chief equity and derivative strategist for the investment firm BTIG who compiled the data. “Because a rising stock market tends to be a ratification of the present policies being satisfying to the investing public.”

McSally will have the distinction of having lost both Senate seats for Arizona.
Kelly is running exclusively against McSally’s policies and record, and has never attacked her personally.
On the other side however, McSally reduced herself continuously to personal and laughably false slander against Kelly.

‘He’s getting a bit desperate’: Trump tramples government boundaries as election nears
As his fundraising has slipped, Trump has upped his use of federal resources to compensate.
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/10/15/trump-tramples-government-bou
ndaries-as-election-nears-429487
The farther behind Donald Trump has fallen in the competition for campaign dollars, the more he’s milked government resources to make up the difference.
Millions of boxes of food doled out to needy families — with letters signed by the president taking credit stuffed inside. An $8 billion program for drug-discount cards to seniors featuring Trump branding — intended to arrive before the Nov. 3 election. A $300 million advertising blitz to "defeat despair" over the coronavirus pandemic — the biggest threat to Trump’s reelection.
Each of those initiatives have two things in common: They’re paid for with taxpayer money, and they are plainly intended to help Trump’s flagging reelection campaign. The actions are just the latest examples of how the president has eviscerated the traditional boundaries separating politics from government.

Christian Group Hits Trump: ‘The Days Of Using Our Faith For Your Benefit Are Over’

A new bipartisan Christian super PAC is taking on President Donald Trump with a new ad that accuses him of hypocrisy when it comes to matters of faith.
“Mr. President, the days of using our faith for your benefit are over,” the ad from Not Our Faith warns. “We know you need the support of Christians like us to win this election. But you can’t have it.”
The spot also accuses Trump of “using Christianity for his own purposes,” and shows footage of his Bible-toting photo op in front of St. John’s Episcopal Church, across from the White House, after having peaceful protesters teargassed to clear the area for him.

Quote:Stephanopoulos was clearly a bit frustrated at times at Biden’s somewhat mealy-mouthed responses. But there was nothing wrong with the answers. They just weren’t very newsworthy. Biden’s policy positions have been articulated for months, but evidently not everyone in America has paid attention, so they had some questions about them. So then Biden answered them.

No news was made, and all of Biden’s views themselves are kind of boring and typical. You could imagine him doing a lot of events like this and most people not finding them very interesting.
The dirty secret of Donald Trump’s often contentious relationship with the American press is that he’s been great for business.
Any time you point a camera at Trump, something crazy might happen.

It Took Savannah Guthrie 19 Minutes to Give Trump His Toughest Grilling in Years
The president praised QAnon and got fact-checked to his face for lying about the pandemic.
https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2020/10/savannah-guthrie-trump-tow
n-hall-grilling.html
Before the Miami crowd got its turn, host Savannah Guthrie interviewed Trump directly, appearing to respond to criticism of the network’s decision to hand Trump air time by giving the president one of the most intense grillings of his four years in office.
Guthrie pressed the president on details related to his own experience with COVID-19, his baffling evasiveness when asked to condemn white supremacy, and the QAnon conspiracy theory, which Trump declined to condemn but did say, “I do know they are very much against pedophilia, they fight it very hard.” While Trump tried to fall back on his usual bluster, Guthrie was a cheerful but firm interviewer, returning again and again to the facts and details of Trump’s answers. As usual, Trump attempted to lie through the barrage of tough questions—and almost every time got pinned down by an interviewer who didn’t back off. At one point, after Guthrie parried one of Trump’s attempts to undermine a question’s premise, the president replied, “So cute.”
Trump tried to paint a misleading portrait of the United States’ handling of the pandemic, and Guthrie pushed back, citing the country’s high COVID mortality rate. After another back-and-forth, Guthrie asked about the White House’ approach. Trump became defensive, refused to answer her question about herd immunity, blamed China for the pandemic, and boasted that his administration had avoided the predictions of more than 2 million deaths. “That 2 million figure, though, is if you literally do nothing,” Guthrie pointed out. “The question is, should the deaths be better than 200,000 when, relative to the rest of the world we have the worst death rate?”
Guthrie then brought up another one of Trump’s nonanswers from a previous debate. Trump has declined to say he would accept a peaceful transfer of power should he lose the election. “You have said repeatedly, ‘the only way we lose this election is if it is rigged.’’ she said. “Now, that is simply not true. The fact is either candidate can lose fair and square without ballot fraud. So will you accept the results of the election?”
Trump responded by claiming that there was widespread voter fraud, citing rumors. Guthrie cut him off.
Guthrie: That is a handful … A single case here, a single there. We’re talking about 150 million votes. Your own FBI Director said there’s no evidence of widespread fraud.
Trump: Oh, really? Then he’s not doing a great job.
He then cited false numbers of supposed fraud then claimed, baselessly, that “they” spied on his campaign.
After the interview portion, Trump took questions from voters, with follow-ups from Guthrie. Among other topics, the president said he did not know whether any of the hundreds of millions of dollars he owes is to foreign entities, and that he has a plan to replace Obamacare, which he does not.

THE GREAT OZ HAS SPOKEN! Rupert Murdoch Predicts a Landslide Win for Biden
The Australian mogul is disgusted by Trump’s handling of COVID-19, remarking that the president is his own worst enemy and telling associates “people are ready for Sleepy Joe.”
President Trump’s influential supporter Rupert Murdoch is telling close associates he believes Joe Biden will win the election in a landslide.
Murdoch had long prized having unfettered access to the White House, much like the direct line he has enjoyed to leaders in Australia and the U.K. But people familiar with the matter say the two men have not spoken in several weeks after Murdoch grew tired of Trump’s endless complaints about what the president viewed as negative coverage on Fox News.
Friends say Murdoch has never taken Trump seriously and his association with him is out of business necessity. He once tweeted, “When is Donald Trump going to stop embarrassing his friends, let alone the whole country?”
This isn’t the first time Murdoch has predicted a Democratic landslide, telling a conference in 2008 that Obama would win the election in a convincing victory.
The question that continues to be asked is how Fox News and its prime-time stars, who have gone all out for Trump, will react to the Nov. 3 verdict and who the Murdochs look to back in 2024, with insiders talking up the prospect of one of their own — Tucker Carlson — making a run for the White House.

If we remove ourselves from the fight, our country will be in freefall,” Giuliani wrote. “Alternatively, we can hang on, elect a compassionate and decent president, and claw our way back onto the ledge.

Fox News’ "Election Integrity Project" is a ploy to boost Trump’s conspiracy theories, insider says
Fox News insiders explain the network's new plot to legitimize Trump's baseless election fraud conspiracy
https://www.salon.com/2020/10/16/fox-news-election-integrity-project-i
s-a-ploy-to-boost-trumps-conspiracy-theories-insider-says_partner/
Sources within Fox News warn that this is motivated to lend Trump's attacks on the election legitimacy.
"Officially, it looks like an attempt to report on election irregularities," said a source familiar with the Election Integrity Project. "What it feels like is an attempt to push more baseless conspiracy theories and scare the viewers into thinking the election is being 'stolen.' It isn't. It's alarming that the Brain Room is a part of this, like it's an attempt to give it an air of legitimacy. I don't recall ever seeing anything like this before."
Trump has repeatedly and baselessly claimed that mail-in ballots are fraudulent, will be stolen or duplicated in large numbers, and will corrupt the election. He has also increasingly attacked Fox News itself, accusing the right-leaning network of disloyalty to him.

Quote:At the same moment that Trump was refusing to disavow QAnon, Biden on ABC was saying that "when a president doesn't wear a mask, or makes fun of folks like me when I was wearing a mask for a long time, then people say it mustn't be that important." A jarring contrast.

This was, again and again, Biden’s point: The words of the president matter. The behavior of the president matters. The comportment of the president matters. The example of the president matters. Biden talks policy often and reasonably well, but he hasn’t been putting on a clinic in wonkery; he’s been putting on a clinic in decency. And it matters. It shouldn’t — decency should be table stakes, too unremarkable to mention — but right now, it does.
The question isn’t whether the president is a policy genius, a orator, a historic legislative tactician, or a masterful manager. It’s whether he’s a white supremacist. Whether he’s a conspiracy theorist. Whether he’s a liar. Whether he’s extorting foreign governments to investigate domestic rivals. Whether he is a Covid-19 superspreader.

Trump, Not Much of a Reader, Tweets Story From Satirical Site Touting Itself as “Fake News You Can Trust”

-satirical-site-the-babylon-bee.html
Often, Donald Trump does dumb things that make you feel like you’re losing your mind because he gets a pass and somehow this is the real world now. Sometimes, however, Donald Trump does something super-duper dumb that manages to perfectly encapsulate how dumb everything he says and does is, and those rare instances provide a moment of cosmic clarity—and are far more gratifying than I’d like to admit. On Friday, President Donald Trump, not much of a reader, tweeted out an article from the Babylon Bee, a satirical news site with a Christian bent, that describes itself as “fake news you can trust.” And in that moment, Trump managed to throw himself a perfectly timed alley-oop, which he leapt to grab midair, double-pump, and dunk … on himself … on the wrong basket.

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday made a new offer to extend the last remaining nuclear arms treaty with the U.S. before it expires in February, but President Donald Trump's top security adviser called it a "non-starter".
He followed up his remarks with a post on Twitter in which he made clear the U.S. will not accept the new Russian offer.
Trump is being obstinate because Obama negotiated the treaty, so Trump has to tear it up and throw it away in order to prove that Trump is a superior negotiator compared to Obama.

Former White House chief of staff, retired Marine Gen. John Kelly, has told friends about Trump: "The depths of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. The dishonesty, the transactional nature of every relationship, though it's more pathetic than anything else. He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life."
A new CNN special scheduled to air Sunday night, "The Insiders: A Warning from Former Trump Officials," in which former senior administration officials -- including former national security adviser John Bolton, former Health and Human Services scientist Rick Bright and former Department of Homeland Security general counsel John Mitnick -- explain why they think the President is unfit for office.
Olivia Troye, a former top adviser to Vice President Mike Pence, has said the President knew about the impact the coronavirus pandemic would have on the US by mid-February, but that "he didn't want to hear it, because his biggest concern was that we were in an election year."

On Friday, Utah Sen. Mitt Romney took to Twitter again to attack Trump's refusal to denounce QAnon during last night's nationally-televised town town hall in Miami.
When questioned by NBC's Savannah Guthrie about QAnon, Trump said he knew nothing about it, but said "I do know they are very much against pedophilia."
Guthrie followed up by saying, "You do know," but Trump insisted he did not.
QAnon believes a group of political and Hollywood elites run a worldwide child sex-trafficking rink and that Trump will stop them.
In his Tweet, Romney said the president's "unwillingness to denounce an absurd and dangerous conspiracy theory last night continues an alarming pattern: politicians and parties refuse to forcefully and convincingly repudiate groups like antifa, white supremacists, and conspiracy peddlers."

Donald Trump Has At Least $1 Billion In Debt, More Than Twice The Amount He Suggested
No aspect of Donald Trump’s business has been the subject of more speculation than his debt load. Lots of people believe the president owes $400 million, especially after Trump seemed to agree with that figure on national television Thursday night. In reality, however, he owes more than $1 billion.
The loans are spread out over more than a dozen different assets — hotels, buildings, mansions and golf courses. Most are listed on the financial disclosure report Trump files annually with the federal government. Two, which add up to an estimated $447 million, are not.
Some people also like to suggest that Deutsche Bank is the only institution willing to lend to Trump. That’s not true. The president’s creditors include at least six other institutions, two of which began or reworked deals while the president was in office.
One reason for all the confusion: Trump’s loans are not fully transparent. It’s still unclear to whom he owes an estimated $162 million against his skyscraper in San Francisco, for example. The loan against 1290 Avenue of the Americas is also something of a mystery. And it’s difficult to pin down the amount the president owes on a loan tied to his Bedford, New York, mansion. When asked about all of this, the Trump Organization did not respond.
Here’s what we know — and don’t know — about the president’s debt.

Welcome to Day 1366.
Today in one sentence: The U.S. passed 8 million coronavirus cases three weeks after passing the 7 million case mark; U.S. intelligence agencies warned the White House – twice – last year that Rudy Giuliani was the target of a Russian influence operation; federal investigators are examining whether the emails allegedly describing Hunter Biden's business dealings in Ukraine and China are linked to a foreign intelligence operation; Trump and Biden held simultaneous town halls on competing TV networks in instead of a second presidential debate; and Trump earnestly shared a story from a satirical news site claiming that Twitter had “shut down its entire social network” to stop the spread of negative news about Biden.

Trump loses to Biden in town hall TV ratings war despite being shown on two more networks
Defeat will likely enrage US president who has long obsessed over media popularity

mp-biden-ratings-town-hall-abc-nbc-2020-election-polls-b1098993.html?utm_source=reddit.com
Donald Trump has lost his latest TV ratings war with Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, who amassed around 600,000 more viewers than the US president during their competing town halls earlier this week.
The lagging ratings will come as a blow to Mr Trump, who has long obsessed over his own popularity and has regularly weaponised the supposedly poor TV ratings of other media figures to mock them on social media.

Trump says the quiet part out loud: He’s losing
He’s mused out loud about an embarrassing 2020 defeat. He’s acknowledged his severe deficit in key polls. And he’s made naked appeals to the critical voting blocs of suburban women and older adults — two demographics he has struggled to win over.

Interestingly, I live in a highly Latino community: At least 70% of the high school students have Hispanic surnames. I always assumed that, but for the odd Gadsden flag or "Protected by Smith and Wesson" signs posted by reprobate Anglos, the city was mostly liberal.
But there is an online website called "nextdoor" that I joined, and altho politics is not supposed to be a topic, someone brought up Trump. And son of a gun, the pro-Trump comments and "likes" outnumbered the anti-Trump comments/likes by about 2:1.
Seems like the silent majority has found its voice, at least in the city where I live.

Losing Could Expose Trump To Prosecution for Any Number of Crimes
Former presidents normally don’t go to jail, but few have committed so many obvious crimes unrelated to their duties in office.
Even if President Donald Trump loses on November 3, it’s hard to imagine that he’ll ever be convicted of any crime, much less serve time in prison.
That’s because, first and foremost, no former U.S. president has ever seen the inside of a cell — and not because all presidents have faithfully followed the law. Presidents accumulate huge favors owed, favors that they cash in, figuratively and literally, when they become former presidents. On the modest end of the spectrum, 20 wealthy friends of Ronald Reagan bought a mansion in Bel-Air, Los Angeles, for him and Nancy to live in when he left office. More significantly, ex-presidents receive political protection, as when Gerald Ford pardoned Richard Nixon for anything whatsoever he’d done in office.
Presidents accumulate huge favors owed, favors that they cash in, when they become former presidents.
And beyond anything concrete that a president does for the factions that back him, those factions also strenuously oppose any consequences for their president’s actions for reasons of basic class solidarity. If an ex-president can face consequences, that would suggest that people one step down the power ladder could too. And the people at the top of U.S. society see consequences like Leona Helmsley saw taxes: They’re for the little people.
That said, stranger things than the prosecution of Trump have happened: for instance, Trump being elected president in the first place.
Trump is more vulnerable to prosecution than other presidents because he’s engaged in so many potential nontraditional presidential crimes. Trump has engaged in many comparatively small, shabby, possible criminal activities outside of his presidential duties.

There were 142 people indicted in the last three GOP presidential administrations while there were only 2 under the last three Democrats. The 2 were during Clinton's time, unsurprisingly. Trump hasn't been indicted because he can't, at least while President. But Trump won't be President for Life. Then will come his reckoning in court.

Trump Is Taking Down Names as Republicans Begin Jumping Ship on His ‘Totally Off the Rails’ Campaign
The president believes prominent conservatives will throw him under the bus in the event he loses his bid for re-election.
That sense of paranoia has been fed by news coverage of Republican politicians either openly criticizing his conduct or else trying to distance themselves from a looming possible electoral bloodbath.
According to one of the sources with direct knowledge, the president is already contemplating retribution.
“The president said something to the effect of: If you’re backing away from him now, don’t bother coming back for a favor when he wins,” the other source said. “He made a comment about how there are some people out there who you can only count on when things are going your way.”
Some of the coverage that has been bookmarked for Trump includes recent stories on Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who has not only split with the president on coronavirus-related stimulus legislation but made a point of saying he hadn’t been to the White House in weeks because of its cavalier approach to the pandemic.
Trump’s frictions with Republican senators don’t stop there.

Osama is Alive! Trump digs in on conspiracy theory over bin Laden raid
Trump has lost some of the political instincts that made him both unorthodox and effective in 2016. Back then, Trump closed the campaign by largely keeping to script, doing rallies, and posting only mundane tweets. This go-around, he’s embraced wilder conspiracies — such as the Osama bin Laden raid being staged — and put up more Facebook ads attacking Hillary Clinton than going after Biden.
I guess it’s difficult when you’re in the White House, but it’s different than 2016. Trump just has no message discipline. It’s totally off the rails all the time.

SECOND: Have you ever been on a jury?
Quote:I do. I wonder about the stochastic nature of "justice" all of the time. Since I knew someone falsely accused of murder, I got to see how the "justice" system works. The detective had specious evidence against the accused which was contradicted by an alibi provided by his wife and stepchildren plus the fact that the accused wasn't gay (it was a gay murder). But all the police wanted to do was clear their books (they're rated on % cleared), so they didn't bother to look for anyone else. All the prosecutor wanted to do was win their case (they're rated on % of wins) so THEY never admitted exculpatory evidence. The system is set up to railroad the accused. Fortunately, the actual murderer left shred if skin (DNA) at the scene, so when DNA was finally analyzed ...six months later, by which time the accused lost his job bc he couldn't make bail ... the accused was finally let go.
When I'm on jury duty, despite all the other people in Texas who deserve to be charged with the same crime but aren't on trial, I don't complain about the defense/prosecution lawyers being biased for/against this particular accused.
THE REAL MURDERER OTOH WAS NEVER FOUND.
In fact, come to think of it, I know two other people falsely accused by the police (for moving violations), and one person who SHOULD have been in jail (for repeated drunk driving causing accidents ... but he was a rich white judge) but wasn't.
Quote:WHY NOT? MAYBE THEY SHOULD BE.
Those other people just aren't on trial. The Democrats aren't on trial.
Quote:I think we have EXTREMELY clear evidence that the DOJ/FBI and media are biased against Republicans, because there is equally clear evidence that (1) the FIB made up shit against Trump and (2) the media was all too happy to spread the lies, while (3) all the institutions were busy covering up real evidence of real crimes by democrats. For example, the whistleblowers who came forward from inside the Clinton Foundation to testify about the crooked bookkeeping and pay-to-play operations, and Biden bragging that he extorted Ukraine to keep his son on the Burisma Board.
There were 142 people indicted in the last three GOP presidential administrations while there were only 2 under the last three Democrats.
So as an aside, when I read about "early release" for "nonviolent" offenders, or "three stikes" laws or other changes to how the convicted are to be sentenced or treated, I always keep in mind that (1) justice is not equal [something YOU should already know] and a fair number of guilty are never even arrested (2) about 1% of the convicted are actually innocent, meanwhile (3) of the remainder, many were convicted on lesser charges than they actually deserved because the DA wanted to win their case.
So people who should have been convicted of (say) first degree murder are convicted of negligent homicide or some such.

Unfortunately, Russia's foreign minister is speaking the truth, except he diplomatically doesn't place the blame on Trump, but on generic "Americans". I'm not a diplomat and I place the blame on Trump for cancelling every nuclear arms treaty negotiated by Obama. Trump's hatred of Obama is perfectly crazy. It is also dangerous for America when Trump's crazed hatred leads to the end of treaties.

Trump is fighting for his political life campaigning at rallies that are almost the only mass participation events with no social distancing taking place in the US. He demands the locking up of his political rivals. He claims the election, and Thursday's presidential debate, are rigged against him.
Trying to regain ground in the suburbs, he's falsely warning White mothers that Democrats want to transform their residential districts with African refugees. This follows Trump's refusal last week to repudiate the QAnon group and his slanderous claims that Osama bin Laden is alive and Biden and former President Barack Obama had SEAL Team Six murdered. Vote Trump!

Do you care nothing about climate change because you live in a land with moderate climate? Trump has taken a position exactly opposed to the Democrats.
Once elected, President Donald Trump moved to define climate change as a nonexistent threat. Through executive order, Trump directed federal agencies to abandon any planning for climate change and to abolish previously adopted rules and regulations.

You can get a sense of why Trump says climate change isn't his problem to solve:
www.desmogblog.com/donald-trump#Stance on Climate Change
Lesley Stahl: “Do you still think that climate change is a hoax?”
President Donald Trump: “I think something's happening. Something's changing and it'll change back again. I don't think it's a hoax, I think there's probably a difference. But I don't know that it's manmade. I will say this. I don't wanna give trillions and trillions of dollars. I don't wanna lose millions and millions of jobs. I don't wanna be put at a disadvantage.”
Lesley Stahl: “I wish you could go to Greenland, watch these huge chunks of ice just falling into the ocean, raising the sea levels.”
President Donald Trump: “And you don't know whether or not that would have happened with or without man. You don't know.”
Lesley Stahl: “Well, your scientists, your scientists–”
President Donald Trump: “No, we have–”
Lesley Stahl: “At NOAA and NASA–”
President Donald Trump: “We have scientists that disagree with that.”
Lesley Stahl: “You know, I– I was thinking what if he said, 'No, I've seen the hurricane situations, I've changed my mind. There really is climate change.' And I thought, 'Wow, what an impact.'”
President Donald Trump: “Well– I'm not denying.”
Lesley Stahl: “What an impact that would make.”
President Donald Trump: “I'm not denying climate change. But it could very well go back. You know, we're talkin' about over a millions–”
Lesley Stahl: “But that's denying it.”
President Donald Trump: –of years. They say that we had hurricanes that were far worse than what we just had with Michael.”
Lesley Stahl: “Who says that? 'They say'?”
President Donald Trump: “People say. People say that in the–”
Lesley Stahl:” Yeah, but what about the scientists who say it's worse than ever?”
President Donald Trump: “You'd have to show me the scientists because they have a very big political agenda, Lesley.”
Lesley Stahl: “I can't bring them in.”
President Donald Trump: “Look, scientists also have a political agenda.”
Why does Trump talk this way? As recently as 2008 the platform of the Republican Party mentioned climate change 13 times. The GOP acknowledged that the Earth's warming was caused by human activity, and a commitment was made to reducing the nation's long-term use of fossil fuels. By the end of President Barack Obama's first term, however, the GOP completely reversed its position. The 2012 Republican platform mentioned climate change once, in scare quotes, to disparage serious concerns about it. Moreover, the party dismissed any proposals to reduce carbon emissions.

I don't buy a single thing you've ever said about your life, buddy. This ain't any different.
But since you losing sleep at night is just about the most meaningless thing I can imagine, sure... you don't have insomnia.

Quote:My sleeping habits irritate the hell out of some people. The complaint is either "How the hell can you sleep at a time like this?" or else "How can you keep going all day and into the night without rest?" Darn if I know, but it is probably for the same reason I haven't been sick for even one day in the 21st Century.

But there is an online website called "nextdoor" that I joined, and altho politics is not supposed to be a topic, someone brought up Trump. And son of a gun, the pro-Trump comments and "likes" outnumbered the anti-Trump comments/likes by about 2:1.
Seems like the silent majority has found its voice, at least in the city where I live.

That hardly makes them a majority. They just whine more than everyone else combined.

Democrats’ stunning fundraising
Democratic Senate candidate running in the 15 races considered competitive outraised his or her Republican opponent. Combined, they raised more than $370 million, compared with about $150 million for the GOP candidates: an average of $25 million for the Democratic candidates and $10 million for the Republicans.

Quote:We already know that almost nobody learns and nobody changes in America after they reach voting age, but if we are lucky maybe a few older Americans will notice that Trump's policies about climate change and nuclear arms treaties are disastrous. Hopefully, those few will change their minds and vote against Republicans. Maybe those few will be enough to force America to avoid predictable disasters. Or maybe not. Depends on how few is few, saying it in the most absurd way I can imagine.

If we can ban nukes, we can ban carbon emissions. Here’s how.
If nations continue to fiddle around with baby steps, watered-down standards, and endless talk while the planet burns, very soon it won’t matter.

WOW, did people unload on that post! Many of them were responding by saying it's the American right to vote for whoever you want, and many of the others were outright pro-Trump.

"Please leave if you lose" and other pre-electoral trumpgret
You need to be in church instead of tweeting. And please leave if you lose. I voted for you. Fool me once.
well you going to anything today did I waste my vote in 2016 were is the guy I voted for. You hiding under your desk
Sir this worked for you the first time It's not this time. Calling folks names, Corrupt, Crooked, Crazy, Whacked does not make it so As a child I was told story of boy who cried wolf. When wolf really came no one believed him. Voted Biden last Monday.
I voted for you, and now because you are hiding behind your on fears and refuse to on educate yourself. just say you’re sorry to America and I promise you they will vote you for another four years! A weak man would just run, are you Tired yet from running #NeedShoes
You are a corrupt man. You have no respect for the office that you hold. I voted for you in 2016 with faith that you would perform your tasks admirably. I will not repeat that mistake.
You are such a piece of shit, I can’t believe I voted for you in 2016! #LoserTrump #POS #MAGADeadfromCovid #VoteHimOut #VoteOutTheGOP
Thought I would share a little insight Trump, I voted for you in 2016, you have been nothing but a disappointment. In fact, you have shown that the GOP that I grew-up with is no longer the GOP today. All I can say is thanks for showing me that we need a leader not a 2-year-old.
Projecting are we? Sorry Mr Trump you are by far the most corrupt human being I have ever seen. Many of your former employees including John Kelly have said so. I’m so sorry I voted for you. Manafort, Cohen, Stone, Flynn, etc. You lead America in indictments including yourself.
No. I voted for you in 2016. Huge mistake I will not repeat
SUBMERGED BY THE BLUE SLEEPER WAVE I voted for you in 2016. I hoped you would make a difference. You did nothing but lie and manipulate us. Money is good but how many funerals do we need ti have? Terribly disappointed and terrified by our curren t administration.
Oh no! I regret that I voted for... you in 2016. I’ve already cast my ballot for Biden and stand behind it.
I voted for you because you weren't a politician, you promised to drain the swamp.. unfortunately you haven't drained any of it. No indictments, you had your chance.

Trumpgret. It's a thing, and lots of people have it.

And then, on top of that, all of the pro-Trump comments got twice as many likes as the democrat ones. Not surprising, as the democrat ones were all for illegal immigration, obsesssed with RUSSIA!RUSSIA! and full of misspellings. The people posting along those hate-filled lines sounded like uneducated boobs.
