Wait! Don't even read! Just harass me and call me a "libtarded bitch" right now! Free of charge!

You are still reading? Okay, well that was unexpected. Most people go with the option above.

So, to start off, mail-in ballots. Okay, that is a legitimate concern. After all, someone can just pose as a mailman or mail woman, intercept the votes, change the votes, and send them to where they need to go with their opinions on it, thus rigging the election. So, considering this risk, what might you propose?

An online survey, perhaps. Seems flawless, right? Wrong. For starters, the website might not be secure, thus letting hackers in so THEY can change the votes, thus rigging the election. Also, you have to find a completely unbiased person like a judge to head the website and work it, and this could be hard to find.

Well, what about a vote that is dropped into a box, handled by government officials? By now, both parties, Democrats and Republicans, have realized that government officials are biased. Now, they do not agree on which exact officials are biased, but they agree that most are biased towards their particular party. Further, what about curving the spread of COVID-19? You need to consider that, even with precautionary measures, the virus could still spread. Also, the service could be slow with the measures in place, thus making it less of an incentive to even cast your ballots.

So what is the best solution to this problem? Well, in my opinion, it still should be mail-in ballots, but in a different way. Instead of sending a vote for Donald Trump to the same address, have a mailing address that is only Republicans. Same for Democrats. This makes sure that there is a higher chance of no one changing the ballots, because it is the person that they want anyway.

Now, you might be thinking, besides "THIS PERSON IS A DEMORAT WHO CAN SUCK JOE BIDEN'S BALLS", that a person could change the number of votes by adding more. This can be taken care of by having an inspector of the opposite party go over and count the number of ballots on the spot.

I don't remember the last time I was rude to a person on the other side. If people are rude I just ignore them. This kind of back and forth generally does no good and is a waste of time. You are set in your position and I in mine. Trying to debate people and finding "middle ground" is not possible. Like the abortion debate what true "middle ground" will you find? I believe that it is killing a human being and the other side is good with that. How can we ever find a compromise? We can't. I am more black and white and not shades of grey think many people think. Not matter what we can change, people find a way around it or cheat, so why do it?

As being much older, I do not worry. I hope people wake up and stop the authoritarianism that people have always said they do not like. It is nice on this side because we can disagree but are not pushed to the side like democrats and some progressive republicans.

Well, I always try to set things straight about political "facts" that are not true. Nobody listens because of my age and my side. What people do not realize is that I always try to include an advantage or good thing about their side. Also, people in this stream make way too much of a big deal about small things.

Thumbs up. I like to talk to my kids and tell them my point of view. We don't always agree but we still can love each other. My brothers will not talk to me because I am libertarian and do not agree with them. I tried to continue a relationship but they could not see beyond politics. That is so sad to me, that is why I make a meme and let people rip into me and I just ignore them.
1 up, 6y
Politics is a form of belief, and belief can rip people apart. In your case, think of politics as Islam. There are two types of Islam, Shia and Sunni, and they have managed to rip people apart if one person believes in Shia and the other Sunni. Your brothers could not see beyond their beliefs, which is a sad but common ways of relationships of religious parents and children are shattered.

The event should be filmed, so that other people from the government can check for any suspicious activity in the footage.

For the second item you listed, can you please elaborate on "keeping dementia Joe off the campaign trail"?

Your third item on the list is what bothers me the most. "Crash the economy and blame Trump". First off, you might be getting a sense that I am a Democrat. Well, I am not simply because I am not old enough yet to choose my political party. I will only blame Trump if and only if it is actually his fault.

Second, the Democrats do not want to crash the economy and blame Trump. To start, they probably also have shares in the economy and are being negatively impacted by the quarantine. Also, the Democrats, and I cannot stress this enough, are not constantly planning Trump's demise every second of the day. They are trying, just like you claim Trump is, to ease the spread of the pandemic.

Further, I really would not be surprised if Trump was the cause of an economic fall. Allow me to explain. So Trump wants to go after China with actual legitimate evidence backing him up. China has allowed this virus to spread because it hid the virus from the rest of the world and killed off medical professionals who tried to sound the alarm. But going after China is not the best idea right now. So Trump might go after Xi Jingping, their leader. Then Trump goes in with his blundering threats like he did with North Korea, and Xi Dada (Uncle Xi), as he is sometimes called, gets really worried.

I am talking in worst case scenario terms right now, so do not say that this is my go-to option. It is the worst case scenario. China cuts off a lot of our trade and forces other countries to do the same, threatening to cut off business if they don't This may be an economic loss for China, but it would affect the US very badly, if not worse than China's loss.

Hey, you remember before Epstein was killed, there's were all these cameras surrounding him? How'd that work out? (sorry, just food for thought, please continue)

Epstein's death was ruled a suicide, not a murder. It did not make sense, but it was ruled a suicide until proven otherwise. Also, you need to capitalize "democrats". "Democrats" is the correct spelling.

How exactly are we going to cheat using mail in ballots? And before y'all just tell me to drink bleach, let me remind you of this: "Humor and discussion around U.S. and world politics. Criticisms and debates are encouraged, but be constructive and don't harass anyone."

It's amazing what can happen during a recount...or a count in general, when trunkloads of previously unaccounted for ballots just magically show up at the last minute with enough votes to carry you to victory. Nevermind the fact that they were illegal votes. Everyone knows that the Republicans will bitch about it for a few months then let it go. Mail in voting, increases the odds and the ability to cheat exponentially. Imagine Trump winning the election by a few hundred votes in an mail in ballot season. Holy Shit! The Dems would never accept it. They would claim voter fraud and wrap the country up in litigation and investigation for the next 4 years, or more, if they lost the next one.

Okay, first of all, the Democrats would not try to rig the voting. You know who would? Trump. He cannot accept the fact that he is not the best and that he did not win. So he would try to rig the votes or have a false investigation. As for me, I hate Trump, but I would certainly not rig the votes or have a faulty investigation against him, because that would only prove that I am just like him.

Further, you seem to make the case that the Mueller investigation was planned by the Democrats. That investigation had legitimate concerns, as people who had played a significant role in Trump's campaign had ties with Russia. Further, Trump constantly praised the leader of Russia, Vladimir Putin. While it may not be true that Trump had any ties with Russia, the concerns were legitimate and understandable.

The democrats try to rig the vote by supporting illegals and pushing citizenship for them. They also like dead voters, TDS boy.

Hahahaha You do realize that the phony Steele dossier was purchased by the dnc, right? You must be 12.

First of all, 13. And supporting illegals? Do you mean immigrants?
0 ups, 6y,

Okay,fair enough. At least you care about politics. Just don't only consider one side or view.

No, illegals. At the Democrat debate, all candidates raised their hands when asked if jumping the border shouldn't be illegal. Pelosi also wants to pay illegals 1200 a month in taxpayer money to buy favor. Plus all the sanctuary cities are Dem run. For a start.

Who are the "illegals"? People who do not pay taxes? Former convicts? Non-citizens or immigrants?

And I try as much as I can to consider the opposing side and give them credit where credit is due.

People that overstayed their visas or crossed the border illegally.
0 ups, 6y,
1 reply
Very well. Just keep in mind that some of these people needed to cross the border because the conditions were worse somewhere else. Now, does this mean I am saying that everyone gets to stay? No. Not all people should be able to come in, because of the drug trade across the border, although not as much drug trade as Trump claims. But still the drug trade.

Also, it is hard to get your visa renewed. You probably have not immigrated to this country, but it is hard for immigrants.
0 ups, 6y
The drug trade in Mexico is unbelievably huge. The cartels run things. If people need to escape go as a refugee, don't sneak across the border.

We're getting off track here.

You're 13. Ok. Welcome to politics. But you're behind. The last three years has been one long attempt to overturn an election they thought they had rigged.
0 ups, 6y
And might I ask how they tried to rig the election? Giving non-citizens voting rights? Refusing voter ID? And whatever your reason for believing how the election was rigged, what evidence do you have to back it up?
