Someone better tell the Stock Markets that Trump beat the Coronavirus. They aren't listening.

Really ?  I was just on the FOX News homepage and they weren't talking about it.  Strange...

It could be that Trump can gather large crowds because people are desperate to find entertainment and just simply something to do with their time when we're all so restricted by Covid.
I question that actually turning into votes  at the ballot box so I predict a big win for Biden.
A prediction that has no more chance of being right than any other. But what the hell, it doesn't cost anything other than being questioned on my ability to predict!

Unfortunately I suspect the people who are naive, gullible, stupid enough to support this idiot will buy this latest blatant lie and then gang up in ever more celebrations and completely overflow the hospitals. It seems to me there should be some sort of criminal consequence for making such a clearly erroneous statement that could obviously have a detrimental effect on public health.

Trump is just a symptom of a very corrupted society. If he's not elected and it's not him that brings their country down then it will be some other symptom, such as Biden or some other American.

America isn't going to change from their greedy form of capitalism. They still believe in it and they're enthusiastically waving their flags and their guns to celebrate it!

I don't have a problem with those billboards.  I think it's a waste of money to put them in Times Square.  NYC isn't going to vote GOP billboard or no billboard.  They should put them in a swing state.

Trump is just an example of corrupted society. His old man made money selling ****. booze, drugs. He set his son up to be just as sleezy and he was happy to fall into the roll.That doesn't tell me the whole place is the same. I'm hopefully confident that the majority of Americans, regardless of political slant, want to turn the page next week and restore at least some of previous respect.

You're missing nearly all the key points about what has happened in that country. If you're at all interested in the real story then just ask. There is no incnetive for me to just repeat it for deaf ears.

Re: Ivanka/Kushner negative campaign ad billboard...

I agree that very few voters who might actually affect the election outcome will see it.

On the other hand, the reaction from the Trump administration as probably garnered more publicity (and as a result more people know of the ad) than if they had simply put it up in some swing state. Plus, they seem to have gotten inside Ivanka's/Kushner's head.  So maybe that was their plan.

Either the voter turnout is going to be extraordinary for this election or people just will mostly have voted before election day.

Early voting numbers are close to eclipsing total voting numbers for 2016.

We know Trump was elected due to a large level of voter apathy. He wasn't all that much more popular than GOP candidates that lost to Obama.

The more we see the turnout numbers the more I'm convinced that Biden is going to win this in a landslide. The GOP will concede that the more people vote, the more less they are likely to win.

But we're not allowed to think that way, because, you know 2016.

I'm less concerned about what people who voted have actually chosen, and more concerned about the impact of voter suppression efforts and how many ballots the GOP will succeed in having disqualified.

The fear is that Trump will find any excuse to get a challenge to the SCOTUS and because he's packed it, they'll do whatever he wants.

You'd have to think they'd have to have some compelling evidence of fraud for even diehard Conservative justices to throw out election results. But who knows? \

Trump consistently claims fraud but has never compellingly proven it.

There is no such thing as voter suppression.  As long as ballots follow the law.  They won’t be disqualified.  Laws matter.  Despite what Democrats think.  IDs are needed.  Signatures have to match.  You know, little things like that.
