Capitol Hill Blue Forums Political Issues Politics In General Is it too soon to be talking 2020?

If you want to believe in all these way out conspiracy theories, be my guest. I seen the same type of conspiracy theories from Republicans on Obama not leaving office back in 2016 on another site. Perhaps this is the in thing these days.

I'd be more worried about a thousand lawyers contesting the state results than state legislature all of a sudden yanking the popular vote and reverting to the pre 1864 ways of having state legislatures award their electoral votes.

But each state have laws on the election that can be contested or the reasons one can contest election which each state laws vary. In most states in order for an election to be contested the results have to be within 0.5 to 1.0.

Perotista, good link there to the House explanation of the Electoral College, nice read.

I'm not worried about the electoral college, although I'll admit I'm a crusty olf retired Master Sergeant pretty much set in his way. To keep on my good side, don't ever interrupt my routine.

Here's another interesting read I just received from Gallup.

Confidence in Accuracy of U.S. Election Matches Record Low

Politics like battle is a highly fluid situation

Trump .... box .... "Liberate Michigan" .... Michigan militia attempts overthrow of state government

"Please take your seat and fasten your seat belt. And also make sure your seat back and folding trays are in their full upright position." We are in for the ride of our lifetime. Will the institutions strengthened as a result of a civil war be dashed asunder by a rogue narcissist and his complicit political party or will we reach safe harbor. I say, put on your dancing shoes ... we may have to make some deft moves to weather this storm.

so .... How is your routine????

As the man who jumped off the a 20 story building was heard to say around the 10th floor, "So far, so good."

I see Trump's "roid rage" is now claiming: "I could have done it without drugs!"

The man is clearly delusional.

Occam's Razor states that the simplest answer is usually the right one.

Thus...Trump will probably be soundly defeated, he won't be able to change the results of the election, he won't be awarded a third term. The transfer of power will be peaceful if not amiable. Trump will NOT attend the inauguration, nor will he go to jail.

I enjoy speculation and hyperbole as much as anybody else, but this has been a really sh*tty year and come November one side of the political spectrum is going to be happy and the other is going to be sad.

There's a better than 50% chance it's gonna break our way. I'm going to cling to that for my very sanity.

interesting

The result of a man falling 20 stories is .... splat!!!!

The result of a well prepared man with dancing shoes on (and having a sky-chute open) falling 20 stories is ... a soft landing.
