So Ive never heard of this dude before, but he just won 1 new fan over, I think his views aren't mine, but he presented an entire picture in an extremely logical manner, something you'll never find in the lame stream American media, the point he was making and never said, is the silent majority, I always harp on it, because it's what drives this country, normal working class people, who enjoy their lives, their family's, their neighborhoods, their jobs, and their money, they work their balls off, spending hours of overtime to provide, Biden wants to come along, as most Democrats do, take these people's hard earned money, and just give it to people who don't want to work, and that's fucking bullshit, I don't work to provide for people who can work themselves, I work to provide for me, and my daughter, and my friends, and my Ex's house, and her new boyfriends stuff, and probably his kids stuff, I'm all out of charity, I don't think everyone should just do whatever the fuck they want, no questions asked, as a Libertarian I'm extremely socially liberal, but not that liberal, everyone has to hold up their end of the bargain, or this whole thing doesn't work, and many don't want to work.

Donald Trump has never one time in his entire career given any hint or any kind of notion he is Conservative, NEVER! he is simply a republican, and most people don't stop to think about that, he was voted in because he didn't bullshit us, he said all the things we thought, and he said them in a crass demeaning manner, just the way we think them, we are sick of politicians, who give us the same tired ass line of bullshit every time(Biden) then get into office and do nothing, us real Americans don't give a fuck, we hate PC, we hate Woke, we hate a group of people who don't want to tow the line, and are willing to literally do just about anything to get out of what all the rest of us have to do on a daily basis, we hate being called racists, when we are not, and we hate being pushed into the feeling we are becoming racist because of this, Trump thinks, and acts, like most Americans, that's why he was voted in, and Clinton wasn't, that's why he will get a 2nd term, and Biden wont, we are simply sick of leftists and their bullshit, destroying our fucking city's, who the fuck do they think they are? well as soon as Trump gets back in, I believe your going to see him give the green light, to do what we should be doing all along, protecting our way of life, and what we love, our Country, proud and honorable people don't destroy their own shit, criminal deviants and traitors do, fuck them all, I will die for my country, when someone in office is trying to make it better for me.  TRUMP 2020

Millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars spent on the Mueller Report and Impeachment...with evidence that would get laughed out of a court of law.Any voter who can throw the lever for Biden / Harris after that alone....IMO is beneath contempt.

Well, I've got the day off tomorrow and I'm gonna plant myself in front of the TV and enjoy the festivities. 

I haven't been this excited about a contest since Tyson/Holyfield!

I love The Apprentice.
I hope he loses and makes more series :)

Maybe, if he wins there will be a new season of "The Apprentice" starring Mike Pence. 

It wouldn't surprise me.

Perhaps in the final year of his second term, the Donald might put Mike Pence up against, I dunno, let's say Pauly Shore, Kanye West, Rosie O'Donnell or Joy Behar for the Vice Presidency.

lovely tweet from Trump inciting violence on the streets on Pennsylvania if mail in votes are allowed to be counted.

Says it undermines law and is VERY dangerous, when actually it is law 

how responsible of the president.

good on Twitter for slapping warnings and fact checks all over the tweet.

Yeah Glen, it's Trump who's going to be behind the violence, Biden has turned a single head to any violence whatesover, who has people already camped out in pure black clothes and ski masks waiting to go? looks like their waiting in line for goddamn concert tickets or something, yep, that's Trump, but I know without question the PP and PB are ready to go head hunting those fucking Antifa faggot punks, they dont stand a chance in the face of real soldiers, theyll be put down before they even get started this time, regardless of who wins, It would make my day to see some snowflakes going to destroy my city get their skull crushed, or get de-brained by a blunt object as their going to burn down a building or terrorize a civilian, I wont lose a wink of sleep, their going to find out it's not nice to destroy things that dont belong to you, and their going to find out the hard way, with tough hate

Meh. Please spare me the selective outrage. Oh, no, he TWEETED! The horror! Most of the same people feigning outrage over Trump's use of social media have sat silent condoning actual terrorist violence on the part of BLM and Antifa.

And as far as tweeting goes, what about the tweet from the Attorney General of Pennsylvania, the #1 ELECTION OFFICIAL in the state, proclaiming 2 days ago that once the votes are counted in PA, Trump will lose. The person in charge of that state's election pre-selecting the outcome... no, that's not an indicator of voting manipulation/suppression at all.

But no warnings or fact checks on that Tweet.

Big tech is in the pocket of the DNC. The way they blocked the NY Post account and articles about the Biden Family corruption while at the SAME time doing nothing when Trump's leaked tax returns and illegal recordings of Melania were allowed to be spread far and wide unchecked, shows their one-sided bias.

If the same rules can't apply to all, then there are no rules and it's game on.

apologies guys but who is Trump actually referring to in his tweet?

if the concern is the counting of mail in votes I assume that democrats or the left will not be rioting as this supposedly favours them doesn't it.

so I assume trump is referring to the right creating violence in streets 

or does he just use violence on the streets to push his agenda.

either way it's not a tweet I would expect from a president

pre selection and prediction based on poles are v different.

bit of an over reaction I think

I can’t believe how divided the States are. I still think a 3rd party might make things more balanced. Too much power on one side or the other when there are only 2 choices. 
 

I’m fearful of tonight’s results...if a result is had. 
 

The States don’t seem very United at this time. 
 

Stay safe!

Yeah, Canadian politics are fucked, too, but at least we have three viable parties to choose from. It makes a huge difference.

Despite complaints of late mail in votes not being counted and voter suppression in some areas, the bottom line is that the American people will make their choice today and considering the amazing amount of votes that have already been cast (100 million or so) I expect a fair and reasonable outcome...so whether it is Trump or Biden, there should be no reason for anyone to lose their shit....

I agree with a previous post about the US needing a third party ... a centrist party that takes the best from both the Dems and Reps ... I think such a party would have a good chance at power and the end result would be more common sense from the other 2 parties as they would hemorrhage votes to a centrist party.....

When I moved to Germany I was totally confused by the political system here but it does something the UK and US don't. You have to gather consensus and make reasonable compromises. 

The idea that a whole population's views are fairly covered by two parties is ridiculous but we continue to live with them because the parties in power don't want to lose that power. It's really not about the 'will of the people'.

Folks, there is an awesome 3rd party, to which I belong, who ran an incredibly capable set of candidates this year in the lesbian pro gun, tough on crime bad ass Jo Jorgensen, and the even more promising up and comer Spike Cohen, the Libertarian Party are very sensible, finding an unimaginable medium for most Americans, but you see, it breaks the ever crooked system that corrupt politicians established years ago, the typical American has zero idea there are other party's, let alone know who the candidates are, and they receive zero coverage on any of the fake left wing news outlets, because they are a detriment to Biden, because they fall more on the liberal side of many issues which robs votes away from the Dumbocrates, so they stifle them, Jorgensen was featured on Fox, and OAN, as well as Joe Rogan, and many other prominent podcasts, but the typical "Independent" American, is not Independent by strategy, but by ignorance, ask your typical dude walking down a street in say, Omaha what party's are running a presidential candidate, I'd bet my Jeep you would get most confused what you even meant, I cant even say I know them all, I know Libertarian, Green Party, Tea Party, the Union Party, but without any major media exposure, there's genuinely absolutely NO!! reason for these people to even run, they should just save their time and money, until our entire system is restructured, it's as meaningful as pissing in the wind.

You're soooo close but still have your right wing chip on the shoulder. 

The problem isn't left wing media. It's all media and the politics being buyable. Politics is not about what the people want. It's all about what corporate interests want. And the way it's set up that's no surprise. The politicians have to go out and raise funds. Corporates aren't giving money for a warm fuzzy feeling.

Yeah, we all know there are more than two parties. What I'm saying is you need another party, like the Libertarians, to actually gain traction and become an real competitive option. 

In Canada, we have many parties. At a provincial level--in my province, anyway--there are always three viable options: Green, Liberal, and NDP. And at the federal level there are also three equally competing parties: Conservative, Liberal, and NDP. 

Having three likely options means you can vote for who you actually want, or vote "strategically" so you don't get the one you don't want. 

It's not perfect in any way, but at least you know it's not just gonna be Democrats or Republicans. Every. Fucking. Time.

Blue states were called immediately. Red states were called on a much more delayed basis and battleground states actually stopped voting last night. Now this morning remaining ballots to be counted are magically showing up in ratios favoring Biden that are statistically impossible. I get that mail-in and absentee ballots typically favor the democratic candidate, but not like this.

There actually was a ballot dump in Michigan this morning of over 138,000 votes for Biden and ZERO for Donald Trump. Not possible.

If you can't win an election, steal it.

Well Dan, lets take an open look at everything they have done in 2020 to make sure Trump didnt get back in, did you actually believe it would go all the way down to the election and not have all sorts of hanky shit go on? I mean I think it's par for the course, they have gotten so nonchalant aboujt all the bullshit that they dont even give a fuck how obvious they are, they are just going to ram it down our throats then accuse us of everything under the sun the second we say something about it, see people, this is the shit thats taken a fairly easy going semi liberal man, and pushed him into almost ultra right winging beliefs, the stupidity of the left to believe the American population are idiots has truly grown me hateful of them and their motives, fuck them, the biggest sorry losers of all time, I hope they are busted, and thrown into an investigation that runs the majority out the door, and maybe their are some true democrats waiting in the wings.

I really don't believe I have a right wing chip on my shoulder sir, I think what it is, is an anti left wing chip on my shoulder, I saw the Libertarian candidates on OAN and Fox News,, I believe I heard Jorgensens name mentioned 1 time on MSNBC, but have never seen any attempt at interviewing her, or doing a segment on her, on any of the left wing news stations, so unless you know other wise, that really had nothing to do with the side it was on, other then I guess its a coincidence that it was only conservative news stations who featured them, I guess it was my false observation, my bad

I don't believe for a second that there is massive voter fraud going on.... for that to happen there would have to be a ton of people involved and it would soon be out in the open....the complaints of fraud from the republicans are just sour grapes...

    • Man, I really miss places like this! I could spend hours in them just looking at all the stuff. You’re a lucky man to live near there.
    • New album out June 28. Not my style per se, but well executed IMO.  
    • "Still in Love" and "Sweet Melody" by Lancia    
    • I posted about this record store (well, CD store really... it has a fair amount of vinyl, but the focus is CDs) 2 years ago. I go there about once a year, and every single time I do I keep kicking myself to go there more often. Not only for the sheer enjoyment of being able to shop the music genres we love and view all these releases in hand, but because it's so damned overwhelming. There's never time to go through things at leisure, pulling out boxes under racks to rummage, because even flying through things and NOT exploring new artists, it's still 3-4 hours to go through the alphabet... let alone stopping and using their listening station (they'll let you listen to used/opened material, not still sealed merch). It's only an hour and a half drive for me each way, so there's really ZERO excuse for me not going over there more frequently. This time I remembered to take a bunch of pictures, pulling out releases from artists we enjoy just to show what they had in stock... a lot of material you'll never see at any mainstream store (even if there is any that carry CDs anymore). Sure, the prices are more expensive than what you'll pay at Amazon and other online stores, but they're not as bad as you would think, and there are bargains to be had amongst the used material when it comes to OOP discs. And to be fair, being able to view all this stuff in-hand is worth it IMO. (Although every now and then you'll see an OOP disc that is WAAAAAAAY overpriced, but at least they have the odd and unusual.) They have one of those old-school "buyer club" stamp cards, with 20 spaces. One stamp per disc purchased. Every other stamp you get a dollar off, and when you fill a card you get $16.99 off your purchase and then you get a new card. On your birthday, you get $1 off every CD and that's on top of the buyer club card discounts. First the pics from when I was going through the aisles, starting with some general pics. Every single artist has its own title card, so look at the variety and depth of the artists. Also, look at the overstock in boxes underneath all the racks! That's the shit I never have time to go through (except when there's a specific artist I'm focusing in on). You've got CDs in the racks, then ringing the entire room is a shelf of box sets and limited editions, then above that VHS tapes, and above that vintage audio equipment. Sections for DVDs and blu-rays (not just music, but movies as well, including a small section of 4K and 3D titles). There's a smaller upper room level that is nothing but vinyl. If you're going to go, plan at least a full day, not just a quick drive-by. They're open from 11AM - 7PM Eastern Time.     Expensive at $249.99, but how many places have a still-sealed copy of the Vanden Plas Epic Works box set???     And now the stuff I picked up this trip. Most is completist fodder. There are a few artists where I literally want an example of every single pressing, even if I already have other label/year/country versions... call me OCD.               I picked up this one for trade/resale even though I already have it, as it is the LOOOONG out of print original fan club edition.     Hmmm... didn't know there was a solo effort, and it seems to be thematically related to the Threshold album "Legend of the Shires".       More OCD completist fodder. I didn't know that Avalon Records (Japan) licensed releases for South Korea.         Live albums aren't normally my thing, but this appears to be way out of print, and for $10 why not?   A few OOP releases for my multichannel audio collection       I'll be posting more about these once I get my shit together, but I'm WAAAAAAAAAY fucking late to the game when it comes to the Jethro Tull 40th anniversary CD + DVD special editions. They only reason I knew about them at all is that I saw a blurb about the 40th anniversary edition of "Broadsword and the Beast", which is my alltime favorite JT album, the first one I ever heard, and I love the album cover... which led me down the rabbithole of all these anniversary editions and their multichannel mixes. Unfortunately a few of them are now OOP and insanely in the $150-300 range. I ordered all of the ones that were still in print (or that had been reprinted), but there were still 4 that I needed... and they had one of them.   And lastly, the most expensive purchase of the day, going back to previous box set discussions, this was one that wasn't on my radar at the time it came out. Based upon eBay listings, it's now a tough find... and they had one still sealed. No, it's not the Amazon exclusive that was signed by Biff Byford, but autographs aren't important enough for me to spend the $500-$1,000 that the signed version now brings. This one will do nicely at a fraction of the cost... a huge and hefty tome (literally).   So when all was said and done, a great (and expensive!) shopping day, but a place I wholeheartedly recommend visiting should you find yourself out here in flyover country.

    • What's this one mate? A guess at the previous riddle or a new one?
    • At the risk of sounding foolish once again... I don't get it.
    • Album out May 31 on Metalopolis Records. The last album was stellar.
