The Don acts more like a "Don," every day.

Even when he pleads the 5th, there are enough recordings that will determine his future- prison with Rudy.

Think back to 2015, when he was being sued by people who said they had been ripped off by "Trump University." The judge who was hearing that case became the source of multiple personal attacks. Then, he asked for the judge to recuse herself, because he had said all these things and some nasty things about Hispanic people. It seemed crazy at the time. But he follows a pattern when he feels himself losing a case. He takes an extreme position and negotiates back from there. He lost the Trump University case but got to keep most of the money he made on that venture. I think he may be on that mode over his current legal problems.

he can always ask his loyal sheep to "donate more".. imagine a billionaire grifting minimum wage workers for money- genius!

50000 truckers definitely aren't making minimum wage and that's just one chunk of the base, I know electricians, oil rig workers, plumbers and any real trade are filled with Trump supporters, even black and hispanic ones so you seem like quite the bigot with your stereotypes. But that's what leftist really are. A bunch of racist bigots and classist.

Good people on both sides, right?

Defender Syndrom is rampant. Lets hope those truck drivers are at their home precinct on Election day. Mail in voting is no longer. Early voting days are compressed now. Lets hope those parent companies of those drivers choose elections over their delivery metrics and profits. 👍

You know, kinda goes for those other trades. Lets hope those plumbers do as their bosses tell them to do when they are let go early to go vote. You know, because any production manager would forgo an inspection deadline (risking a 30% draw on the project) to allow his workers access to the poles. 👍 That sounds right!

Then all of the cable installers working until 9pm installing residential services. You know they are all going to get the day off to go vote.

ROTFLMAO. Dont forget, no more early, or mail in voting, in some states.

that was a fat orange turd that mailed in his ballot last year. had access to a free private plane and couldn't get off work to vote.

Polls*

We have had Vote by Mail for 22-years in Oregon. We saved over $600,000.00 in election related costs in 2000 and millions in the ensuing years. We have seen no notable fraud or illegal voting. Republicans get overwhelmingly elected, in Republican districts. Democrats get most of the votes in Democratic districts. People from both parties have won statewide elections. If you get a Driver's License or State I.D., and meet all other requirements like proof of citizenship, you are automatically registered to vote. You can choose a political party then, or later if you wish.

The biggest problem most Republicans see with our system, is that it makes it nearly impossible to suppress votes. I have advocated making mailing in one's vote, free to voters, which would remove a possible hurdle for poor voters.

I voted by mail when i was in the service. I continued that when I got out (25 years ago). Luckily my state of Florida allows it. 🤪👌

The "base," most certainly is not made up of just minimum wage workers. I have known many of them over my lifetime. Most of his followers are the "Lost Generation," of the Data and Silicon Valley era. Their views on race, religion, women's equality and other issues have put them outside of mainstream "norms." It may seem incongruous that the bellicose guys with guns in their hands and rage in their eyes, have problems with self-esteem, but that is central to why they were targeted by Trump. He told them the truth they wanted to hear. They are just as good as anyone, as individuals. They have been hearing a lie almost all their lives, that their life mattered less than others.

While I don't endorse most of their views, I was committed to lay down my life defending their right to believe them, when I was in the Army. I was just as supportive of their access to VA care and services, as I was to anyone else's for 30-years.

I did not live their lifestyle and was unaware of how it felt to have their beliefs assigned to every physically unattractive character in film and criticized in all public fora. So, I should not be surprised that many of them, who did not commit overt acts of racism, found reports that these were widespread, to be incredulous.

In the early 1980's I suggested an event I called "International Heritage Days," to my Equal Opportunity Committee at the Sepulveda VA Medical Center. It was the result of trying to figure out the lack of support for Asian-Pacific Heritage Days, and a comment made to me about the lack of a "White History Month." International Heritage Days took all the activities associated with such events and opened them for people of all heritages. It is one thing to call America multi-cultural. It is another thing to see people of all cultures "strut their stuff," for each other. When you get to sing your song, you appreciate the unique music of others.

I have witnessed up close, the problems America has with peaceful coexistence among our
various selves. We are overdue for a national talk about race. I suggest scheduling the start of that talk, the week after a National-International Heritage Week. America is Great when we truly recognize that each one of us is just as valuable as the next person.
