Yes those miracle votes at 3 am in the morning. We saw them.

Anyone paying attention knew turnout was going to be high before election day. The pandemic captive audience and yes, bullshite mail in ballots assured that.

The polls are VERY skewed. It's not as close as they are saying.

A couple of weeks ago, I had a customer. 70 y/o, black male, who stated his income was $2k/month, tell me that he couldn't stand Kamala and we needed Trump back in.

When a poor, black, senior citizen from MONTGOMERY, AL who lived thru segregation and Jim Crow makes a statement like that, then Trump has way more voters than the polls are showing!

Trump can’t stop acting like a 9 year old. He’s pushed a lot of fence sitters and traditional liberals to the margins.

I’m voting for him. I hope to god he wins.

But, while I know people on him love him like a cult figure, I don’t think they realize how much damage he’s done to the Republican party’s chances this election and last election.

People love that dude so much that they grew to hate voters of their own party calling them Ron bots, and others hated him so much that they switched parties. He is not a good candidate for the Republican Party, but he’s all we have right now.

It's not. If we had fair elections Trump would win easily.

The entire process is a scam.

He really needs to channel his down the stretch approach from 2016. If you remember, he toned it down a good bit and surged late because of it.

The polls and media still had Hillary landslide predictions, but it tightened a good bit towards the end as Trump cut out much of his nonsense.

Indefrickable and SFP say that is perfectly normal for an increase of 28 MILLION votes in a 4-year period.

75+81 = 156 million. ETA

The prior elections from 2000 had nothing over 127 million votes.
That is PDJT 62 + HRC 65 = 127 rounded for simple minded people.

There is no way in hell that many more people LEGIT voted. The sky is not green yet they would have us believe the sky is green.

Get out of Plato's Cave people.

ETA - corrected DJT for 2020 vs 2016.

It isn't "normal". But there are reasons for it, it was predicted ahead of time, and everyone with sense knew turnout would be high for those reasons.

Turnout was up 7% or so. That is not unprecedented. Similar jumps also occurred in 52, 92, and 04. There's also the matter of population in general growing. Raw vote totals is useless for comparing elections outside of consecutive cycles. Raw vote totals are generally going to go up over time.

I'd wager that turnout and raw votes will be down from 2020 this year.

race.


Its this. Everyone that I have talked to that says they are voting for Harris (and its not a lot) say that Trump is racist. When I asked one of them to tell me what he did, they said he took a full page ad out on the NY Central 5 or whatever

All I could do was stare at the stupidity.

The hiveminded woke. There are 10s of millions of them. These are the people who march in lockstep with whatever their ideological leaders say on MSM and social media. No questions asked. No individual thought. They are the ones who are keeping this race close. It also shows how powerful brainwashing is.

It's not as close as you are made to believe. The propaganda is to make you believe it's close so that the cheating will be less obvious.

The media doesn't need to make up much. Just listening to the guy is a chore for most.

I honestly don't think it is at all. I am seeing them start to go in a direction where they are setting up the narrative for why she not only lost ,but looks like she is gonna lose big. They are breaking out the muh Russia this close to the election than it tells me they can't fraud this one and she is deep underwater.
