Would you be shocked to learn that a big hunk of the citizenry is absolutely convinced that Donald Trump will not only be re-elected but re-elected in a landslide? It’s true, and it’s not an ironic or performative belief, but rather one drawn from a perspective that the mainstream media utterly ignores. This means you probably have no idea it even exists, and that could lead to an unpleasant surprise in November.
Well, unpleasant for you.
Remember that apocryphal anecdote about how Pauline Kael moaned that she did not know anyone voting for Dick Nixon? If you’re here, then that’s very likely you.

I agree that Trump still has his original supporters, and has probably gained some. But the left intends to stretch the virus chaos into election time. It is going to be a real mess.

Unless Trump wins by a landslide, the dems are going to fight every state and try to cheat. We know they are going to it, its what they do. And at the same time they will say WE are cheating.... Predictable and stupid

It reminded me of something Nora Ephron had said. The 2010 elections resulted in Republican control of 26 state legislatures and 29 of the 50 state governorships. The following day, the writer Nora Ephron (“When Harry Met Sally”) said in an interview: “I watched the elections returns come in, the endless babble about how angry people were, and I have such a sense of how insulated we are in New York City from whatever is going on out there.”

I’m glad that the Compost and the Slimes turned it down. Do we want the snowflake SJW’s to know what’s really going on out here so that they will know how much more they need to cheat? Or do we want to drink their tears on November 3 when Sticky Fingers goes down in flames?

I read the delicious column AND clicked on the link to purchase the book. That link let me read a few pages from Kurt's new book, The 21 Biggest Lies About Donald Trump (and You!). Spoiler Alert: My sides still hurt from reading why when being denigrated by the Left, Donald Trump just ''shrugs and counterattacks because he's been called worse things by more impressive people'' Amen.

I can't wait for my pre-ordered book that I was told would arrive today. It's been sent by Bezos. I wonder if the honest NYT will acknowledge it as a best seller, when it goes to number one.

Has it ever occurred that some here do not know anyone voting for Biden? As Schlichter pointed out, the enemy has a vote. There is a long ways to go to November, and there are more kitchen sinks to be thrown in the UNIPARTY's Mission:Trump. Let's not sell the NeverTrump opposition short, nor those "h8ers" out there. They will crawl through broken glass, too, in their effort to Dump Trump.

True story: My sons were in town for the 4th of July weekend. After a few too many bottles of wine after dinner one night, the discussion turned to politics, which we rarely do. One son is a liberal, one is a libertarian, and one is an apolitical union guy from CA. None of them are conservative. To a man, they are all voting for Trump, which stunned me. They are had their own reasons, some of which were fairly convoluted, but nonetheless, these are the voters that the left knows nothing about.
The psy-ops now are oppressive and are intended to bolster the dem base and discourage conservatives, and in doing so, create a reality. Don’t fall for it. Stay calm, speak your truth, and vote.

My theory is that the Democrats may in fact be too chicken and too lazy to actually, themselves (i.e., in addition to their paramilitary), fight a real civil war. So their strategy is just to be so outrageously obnoxious, destructive, and loud that a lot of people will do what parents of 2-year old quadruplets would say..."OK, OK, just. make. it. stop!"

The destroyed the economy and the job market (temporarily) with a phony scamdemic, figuring that Trump would get blamed. He won't be.

I have several liberal friends who just assume I'm liberal also. I don't argue with them, and usually change the subject to something else to stop their ranting. I'm looking forward to their depression after the election.

My brothers and I are conservatives. One brother has three sons, and two of them are flaming liberals who told the youngest son that their father and their uncles are bad bad people and they will try to indoctrinate him. Well much to my surprise the youngest son texted me and said he does not buy the liberal slop and would like to hear what I think. So all is not lost, seems like some of young people don’t believe the liberal line.

I do think Trump will win the legal vote in a landslide in enough states for an impressive electoral victory. I believe he will win the legal popular vote. But in swing states with democrat governors will the legal vote be sufficient? I have friends reporting receiving multiple mail in ballots per voter in some of those states. It does not appear that anything is in place or contemplated to stop rampant vote fraud.

FTA: Ask a Trump voter if he or she – sorry, that’s the extent of their pronouns – knows a single 2016 Trump voter who is voting for Biden.
Unfortunately, we do know someone who said that he was either going to vote for Biden this time or for no one (hoping it's no one). This guy is a hard core libertarian and SMART and successful businessman. As of today, he is angry at the way that Trump has handled COVID and believes that Trump steps all over himself and can't get out of his own way. I hope he is an outlier b/c if Biden wins, his VP (God help us) will be our president in less than a year's time and it will be all over. It'll be open season on Republicans and Independents -- anyone who doesn't adhere to their groupthink.
