I am talking about the future, not the past.

I'd support him over Kamala or Newsome, for example.

Shapiro...now he'd be an interesting choice as well.

Trump TV. Not even 'WhiteHouseTV' or 'TruthTV'

I wonder if it will livestream his assassination. I still recall watching The Butler assassination attempt in real time.

Seems like McConnell is back to ‘work’ again. I have this vague recollection of a Gandler post assuring us he was dead.

At least he made the correct decision to not run again. I’ll be very surprised if he makes it to see who is Trump’s successor.

Recent polls show a ‘Blue Wave’ in November. Dem is leading in TEXAS! Seems reasonable. But are these polls going to be as valuable as the ones that predicted a President Hilary or a President Kamala?

Due to the schism within and uncertainty about the platform and direction of the democrats I'd say "Who the hell knows just WHAT will happen?"

One thing's for sure.trump and his GOP will claim they were cheated and not accept any defeats gracefully, if at all.

Of course!

That is "play number one" in the "MAGA playbook."

As always, my best advice is to vote according to the time honored and effective Massachsuetts tradition. That is, to vote early, and to vote often!

If Democrats don't take anything back, it's two more years of the same.

Bike lanes now considered woke
WTF
I'm in downtown Denver. After visiting Meow Wolf, hopped on my scooter and explored downtown using bike lanes

Ah yes. Making gasoline more far expensive while making purchasing cars and maintaining cars way more expensive....

And, then cutting mass transit and bike lanes....

What can go wrong?
