    Well, for sure "that time that conservatives rioted' (is that what you call it?) will not be forgotten or excluded from history books. It shouldn't be, we should never forget the day a president in office egged a mob into marching on the capitol with weapons, ill intentions, and zip ties.

    Let’s not lump all conservatives in with maga.

    Hopefully our law enforcement agencies are also laser-focused and be better prepared for this violence.

    It’s worrisome for our poll workers. Many are older and women. These nuts take out their anger and hatred on them.



    “A Texas man who wore a hat supporting former President Donald Trump punched an election worker who told him that wearing items endorsing a candidate are prohibited at voting sites, a sheriff said Friday.”

    Texas man punched election worker over Trump hat at voting site, police say

    “Across the country, the doubts and anger ginned up by the spurious election-fraud claims of former President Donald J. Trump have unsettled the once-routine civic task of collecting and counting votes……Emily Cook, the director of the county’s Bureau of Elections, has also been threatened, both on social media and in person. “People say that I deserved to be executed,” she said.“

    https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/26/...ytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare


    “Four years of baseless allegations of election fraud have created an atmosphere of fear and intimidation among election officials from Atlanta to rural Washington state,

    Across the state, election workers have gone through active-shooter drills and learned to barricade themselves or wield fire hoses to repel armed mobs. At the ready are trauma kits containing tourniquets and bandages designed to pack chest wounds and stanch serious bleeding.”

    Crazy how some people see it as not a big deal - completely delusional. It’s this type of acceptance of Trump’s behavior that leads to the downfall of many previously great nations. If anybody else did what he did after the 2020 election, they would have been banned from running for any type of office ever again, but since Don-old is special needs, he gets a pass.

    Agree 100%.

    I've said it before, but there's the tiniest silver lining to the MAGA grotesquery; it's history in the making, and it's great entertainment.

    We're getting to watch otherwise good people -Christians and family people- throw their morality to the wind as they rabidly support a criminal, who is also a traitor and a sexual predator. It's truly amazing.

    Definitely stay tuned for the next chapter, which will (hopefully) start to unfold in a few years; they'll all begin to say that they never supported the un-American scumbag.

    Your presence on this forum is a long running joke that surfaces here and there periodically to astound and amuse readers of this forum. Your many lies and personas make it difficult to take you seriously, but your posting history gives insight into your volatile instability.
    That's evident and it's not just "this Election."
    Like most of us, you are, simply stated, "very opinionated" on most every topic or Too Hot thread you post. But you have no filter and apparently spend a good deal of time mired in fantasies of fear, motivated to incite others. What are you looking for, expecting or hope to find?

    You have in the past been advised to seek psychological counseling by a number of people concerned with your mental instability. Whether you did or not is on you, but recent dramatic flourishes in your posts indicate you know you have crippling emotional issues and possibly mother issues.

    You've been posting on this site for years, returning with changed identities and usernames like a chameleon each time you are banned. Your persistence is astonishing but your motives are suspect. Whether you intended it or not, people have been hurt in the wake of your irresponsible posting. And now, here you are once again, turning up like a bad penny to project your fears and insecurities onto your political opposition. Like the legendary invitation to Thanksgiving dinner at Saban's house you have become the punch line to a tired, worn out joke. What do you hope to gain in this seemingly pointless endeavor?

    I'm all for shutting down rioters but not just the extremely rare conservative rioters.....all of them. We need to hold everyone to the same standards....not just Trump supporters.

    So then you agree Trump belongs in prison for inciting it?

    Kamala knows she needs a miracle imo. Obviously there is movement towards Trump. She looks weak and uncomfortable here. I think Harris will handle her deteriorating position by hitting the bottle. Same thing I might do
