    I see the Democrats have assigned over 100,000 lawyers to challenge everything about the 2024 election. Lawfare on the worst scale. It was outlined in the Wall Street Journal so you can look it up if you want. Some believe there will be Democrats as paramilitaries in the streets across the country, but that is the theory of the more radical rightists. Unless Trump takes the popular vote in sufficient numbers to make it a non-issue, there will be fights well into 2025.

    They evidently love "civil war" because they are certainly asking for it. I read somewhere else here on SOC there are "ballot Mills" getting ready to puke out their fakes votes. If we know about them, why aren't they getting busted? Oh I know, we have to have more evidence. If the Left wins this election, there's your evidence. Sometimes I really think we are nothing but a whole bunch of stupid idiots.

    Here I am getting all high on the good news for the Right, when I know that if we do win, it will be hell in this country, because
    whoever wins there won't be any real peace.

    I think it is associated with the fundraising scandal that seems to be unfolding in the background. The Democrat party is falling over themselves with money this election.

    How is this legal?

    https://www.swapyourvote.org/

    Swing state voters:
    We match you with two Harris supporters who will vote for your protest or 3rd party candidate in a solid blue state (like California), if you vote for Harris in your swing state.

    Solid blue state voters:
    You will uphold your end of the swap and cast a protest vote!

    We are not matching voters from red states (like Texas).​

    OMG, this is not right, and surely not legal!! They've gotten away with so much, that they don't fear our laws or constitution, and definitely not "we the people". The US needs to rebuild our "strength" to show the world, yes, but also to show all citizens that we are tough on crime. When we talk about "gotaways" how about Hillary, and the rest of those that should have served some jail-time by now.

    Anything goes, and I'm thinking none of us should be so dumb to think they won't be trying a lot of ways to cheat. That's what desperate people do:eek:

    This is amazing, and I was so relieved to see this good news from Tulsi on her and RFKs visiting so, many Blue States, and who's in the crowds!!
    The lies are not working of many on the LEFT, and they too deserve to know the Truth:

    Glad to say I finished my research, carefully marked my ballot, then put on a trench coat and hat to go and put it into the dropbox at the Township offices last night.

    I went just after dark, so I was surprised that there was no other traffic there. I seriously expected a line! :p

    Well, the upshot is... with so few coming in I feel some confidence that my vote will be tallied before the end of Monday. I just wish I had returned it there a day earlier. :(

    One more day and a wake up and we’re there: election day.
    Two more days and a wake up and we’ll know who is probably going to be our next President.

    Frankly, as @Beth Gallagher wrote, I’m tired.
    Tired of the media in general, the innuendos, virtue signalers, phony accusations etc; all which make for a really negative atmosphere that is choking out the brains of normally good people.

    Ya know, I’m not going to bet on it but hopefully, after the election and the time leading up to the inauguration, we can all wake up to a more positive day filled with all the good things that help us enjoy life.

    We as seniors have little time left on this earth so as for me, I’m going to try to go back to looking for positive things to think about and things that I enjoy doing: my faith, woodworking, physical and mental improvement, chasing Yvonne around the house or whatever good comes to mind.
    Anything that doesn’t include the hatred, the infighting and stupidity that goes on in the political arena.

    Oh, I might write about something that goes on in the Government but with a personal understanding that I’m not going to immerse myself in it any longer because no matter what happens with the Government just happens and there’s not a derned thing I can do about it.
    If at any time I think I can change what goes on the in Government, I might as well think I can become the King of Siam because neither one is going to happen.

    I understand why you feel this way, so do I far as myself is concerned but we women aka mothers do feel afraid for our children, grands.
    Knowing we can't do anything about it but vent. Still very frustrating.
    I tell my kids,' all in their 50s now ' if I were rich, I'd have you and my grands, kidnapped and sent to South Dakota or even better, Poland.:( America was 'surrendered decades ago, imo.
    In this land of the conquered, we are the only nationality that is ashamed of itself.I once read a philosophers quote about " a nation that lacks pride in who and what they are, will be conquered by those who are proud of their heritage,culture, warts and all.

    Of course I'm sure those places will soon be conquered too.

    Can't agree more with what you say @Bobby Cole, the voice of common-sense is good to hear. I make myself sick, much higher anxiety, feel hatred toward others. I just make things much worse for myself by not focusing on healthy-distractions, denise ;) PS I've been learning a lot more about myself than I have about anything else. Some is a rude awakening, some is good when I see the healing.

    I totally agree with you, @Denise Evans , and making ourself upset and angry when it does not have to happen is very unhealthy for us. It seems like sometimes there are too many days that are bad all on their own, and so I try to enjoy every little bit of the days that are not bad ones.
    This has worked for me for years, maybe because at heart, I am just a peaceful person. In any case, I do better when I look for happy things and avoid the unpleasant ones that can be avoided.
    God makes warriors, but I am not one of them.
    I think it was Abraham Lincoln who said something to the effect that a man is only as happy as he makes up his mind to be (or something like that).
