He'll probably ask his hottest female followers to join him on a rocket ship to the nearest passing comet. (Melania, if she's still around, will beg off, claiming she has a fear of heights.)

All the mail-in votes are doing Trump in. The main reason being that during the pandemic crisis Trump was just mailing it in.

Very good!

I just checked and my mailed-in ballot has been counted, but I can't remember who I voted for. All I can recall is that it's an old man with dementia.

I've already voted. For whom? It was one of the toughest decisions of my life.

How can you watch that crap, edited or otherwise? When is enough of Donald Trump enough? Listening to Trump is like the definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over hoping for a different outcome.

Draining the swamp. Postal Service awards $5 million contract to Postmaster DeJoy's former company, in which he still holds multimillion dollar stake. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/usps-contract-xpo-logistics-postmaster-general-louis-dejoy-former-company/

Trump appeared saner in the debate than I expected. He was lying and exaggerating as usual, of course, but he seemed to be well prepared and organized with the lies and exaggerations he was spewing out. I was rather hoping he would walk off in a childish tantrum when asked tough questions. Instead he gave prompt answers however false or evasive. And if Biden was going to laugh so much while Trump was holding forth, I wish he would have shared more what he was laughing about, since Lord knows this country needs some good laughs.

No, the telltale holes are in Rudy's story, not his clothes.

His mama told him, "Rudy, always dress nicely, even in bed. Remember, the clothes make the man."

Rudy says it's "a complete fabrication. I was tucking in my shirt." https://nypost.com/2020/10/21/rudy-giuliani-says-alleged-borat-sting-is-complete-fabrication/ You know what they say, Cliff, about clothes as evidence!

Not just a Trump appointee, I believe his main qualification was being a Trump sycophant. On laptops or anything else, Ratcliffe sits on top of Trump's lap. Even though Bill Barr takes up most of the room.

Perhaps the best song title to fit Trump is that of the old Jim Reeves hit, "He'll Have to Go."

How about "Hound Dog"? You ain't nothing but a hound dog Lying all the time You ain't nothing but a hound dog Lying all the time You ain't never stopped a virus And you ain't no friend of mine.

Today's music sucks.

The Republican Party is like the band playing on the sinking Titanic. What would the song be? "My Way"? ("Regrets? I've had a few.") A parody of "You've Lost that Loving Feeling"? ("I've got this sinking feeling.") Or would it be a song from "Show Boat"? ("Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man.")

Maybe this thread should have a new title. Gullible's Travels.

Has anyone, anywhere in the media, called him out on that saving millions of lives? Has anyone asked him where he gets that from? And it was not a complete cut off of travel from China. It's like Harris in the VP debate, had all kinds of openings to go after Trump and ignored them. And Trump just keeps repeating this stuff till people will believe it.

I attended a public meeting held by the two founders, Applewhite and the woman, in St. Augustine, FL in the late 70s. The cult was pretty obscure then, and what they were doing in St. Augustine I don't know unless it was part of a nationwide recruiting effort. My brother wrote for the true-crime magazines at the time, and he was in pretty good with the St. Augustine police. Two detectives attended this meeting, just to see what was going on, and my brother and I went with them. (It was the first time I would ever ride around in a cop car.) It was a small gathering and the two leaders didn't have much to say. Instead the main presentation was by this poor kid they had brainwashed. He was nervous and fumbled through a memorized speech, something about going to the next or second level. There was a Q&A session with the two leaders afterwards. I asked a question but I don't remember what it was and I don't remember the answer. After the meeting, we got in the detectives' car and followed the car that the kid left in. I don't remember who he was with, it wasn't the two leaders, but the detectives pulled them over. Since no crime had been committed, the intent was obviously just to scare this kid, which I thought was pretty unprofessional. (It was also unprofessional to have my brother and me riding in their car.) I don't know if it scared any sense into the kid or if he was one of the 39 cult members who committed mass suicide years later. But that was my one experience with a cult, the two founders and a brainwashed kid, before Trump's appeared on the scene, taking almost half of the country to the next or second level.

Whatever. November 3 is Anti-Trump Vaccination Day.

I heard that it was a lead story on FoxNews, which would be a big surprise, but I don't watch it (I'm trying to avoid all sorts of infection), so I don't know.

This gibberish is nothing but a distraction from the fact that you posted an apparently false claim about arrests of BLM white people with no comment or reason for doing it. You call my response being "triggered," I call it simply pointing out disinformation posted for no discernible reason other than for the sake, I guess, of posting disinformation.

I assume that the S stands for Superspreader.

No, I didn't know I had used a dirty or impermissible word. Its definition is someone who "deliberately provokes others online. By saying inflammatory and offensive things. They live to make people upset and angry."
