To let Republicans have a shot at the presidency, absolutely. Because if it was straight up majority vote it'd be a long time before we saw a Republican president again.

If he wins you will see the mob take to the streets. They already did it on K street in DC in 2016. This time will be much worse. You will see violence in a lot of the liberal cities.

[quote=mooby;1263906]Nahhh, you guys are the real diehards. I have a 45yo coworker voting this year because his mom is pressuring him to. He's never voted before (and probably never will again after this election) simply because he doesn't think it will change anything for the better. And there is a lot more people out there that think along those lines too.[/quote]

Agree. I think a higher % of everyone to the right of Democrats vote higher by %.

Democrats don't win by % of party voters who exercise their right to vote, it's a sheer volume game. 51% of 200 is more than 100% of 100.

Hence why anything that decreases the number of total votes, the democratic party (the leadership, not every individual voter) fights tooth and nail against. Like such things as requiring an ID to vote (throw out 2020, this is about all the previous elections in my lifetime).

White supremacists accused of intimidating Michigan family


DETROIT (AP) — Two members of a white supremacist group were arrested Thursday and accused of intimidating a Michigan family, authorities said.

Justen Watkins, 25, of Bad Axe, and Alfred Gorman, 35, of Taylor, were charged with gang membership, unlawful posting of a message and using computers to commit a crime, according to Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel’s office.

The charges followed an investigation by Michigan State Police and the FBI into a group called The Base and a December 2019 incident in which a family in Dexter saw men in dark clothing shining a light and taking photos on the front porch of their home. The photos were uploaded onto The Base’s social media platform channel along with a caption that alluded to a person involved with an antifa podcast, according to authorities.

Nessel’s office said the group was targeting that person, but that he had never lived at the home, which is about 52 miles (83 kilometers) west of Detroit.

Lolol this is hilarious. First we're a bunch of snowflakes, now we're a violent mob. Pick one.

I'm betting there will be riots either way, because half of voting America is going to be pissed off that their candidate didn't win.

Acting like you’re immune to bias while being bias ... yesh. Not a good look, shows lack of self awareness and inability to be self critical. I know I’m bias against trump but I’m not arrogant enough to be denial about it and then parade that false sense of self as some trophy showing my thought processes are superior to others.

SD, sorry to let you down but your bias buddy. Your shit stinks just like the rest of us.

Trump has a lot of friends white, black, and women in the entertainment industry. When he was elected they came to the trump tower and had their photos taken first floor before seeing him and consulting with him. Not a real surprise lil Wayne endorse him.

What’s pathetic are the racist shots as “u ain’t black if you don’t vote Democrat”

Nothing is more racist than demanding poc think and act a certain way....That they can’t think for themselves. But continue to give those folks a pass who constantly spew racist ideas such as that...

Glad you can admit it. And that's not sarcasm.

He met with another guy that has a huge impact and respect in the black community, I don't get why that can't be applauded. This isn't a one time thing. He has met with countless different groups over the last 4 years. In addition to actually doing things such as prison reform, giving money to HBCU's that can actually make an impact, opportunity zones, the platinum plan, etc. It doesn't matter what he does, you don't like him and that's all that matters. Frankly, it's pretty sad that you guys can't acknowledge anything positive.

How is anyone on the right supposed to take criticisms of Trump with anything less than a grain of salt, when you openly share that no matter what he does, you're going to ignore it at best or shit on him for it? A lot of you don't want actual debate or discussion, you want nothing less than 100% capitulation that orange man is bad.

George Clooney was a terrible Batman. He's dead to me.

Re: Election Day Thread - Nov. 3, 2020

I am not for Trump, nor did I vote for him - but you know when libs don't get their way they take to the streets. The Poor Boys are only there cause of what the mob is already doing. If there were no riots there would be no Poor Boys. You can not sit there and tell me different. I mean on the Brooklyn Bridge hoodlums were armed w/ bats attacking the police. WTF???

When Obama was elected I didn't see any riots. When Trump was elected all I saw was a bunch of fuckin' crybabies.. '' not my president! I'm going to Canada" blah blah blah.. Let's go smash up Starbucks on K street. It's like some of these libs are so emotionally weak and unstable. Same thing when Bush 2 got elected, these libs just can't hold it together.

Yeah mostly peaceful, there was some ugly racist stuff sprinkled in, but we're in a different time. I don't think putting Biden in office means peace and quiet and all is well from the opposition.

I mean the Boston Tea Party was pretty violent and racist obviously since the dressed up as indians (probably called themselves the Redskins too) But the modern Tea Party protests weren't anywhere close violence or aggression wise to the anti-Trump crowds we have seen.

I've been saying this for awhile now. I look at Biden very much like Gerald Ford, just someone who would calm things down till both parties can find someone who knows what they are doing. He is a one term President.

An article about voter suppression that mentions requiring an ID, loses me. IDs are required for so many things, but somehow for something as important as voting, its suppression.

I'd have to read more about voter purging. Is that taking people off the voter poll if they haven't voted X number of years? If so, I have no issues with that either.

Mail-in voting. I'm hesitant to make it widespread. For the sole reason it's easy to literally walk up to someone's mailbox and steal their mail. I guess I'm not against it wholeheartedly, but I think the process needs a lot of work to make me really confident in it.

Gerrymandering is dogshit. Any conservative that supports that is flat wrong.

Note - We need to expand the voting dates. Make it a Friday - Sunday thing. And make Friday a National Holiday. Nothing more patriotic than voting, no matter what way.

Aiight let me go 1 by 1:

I don't disagree with requiring an ID, and I wonder why they feel the need to include it as an example when the GOP gives me so many obvious blatant examples of voter suppression to pick one. Like in Texas - 1 ballot box per county is an obvious attempt at suppression. In Pennsylvania, suing to keep ballots postmarked before election day from being counted after election day is voter suppression.

The voter purging - I wouldn't have a problem with it either if they were only purging voters who hadn't voted within a reasonable timeframe, but I haven't seen anything that indicates that's the case. I have seen [URL="https://www.americanbar.org/groups/crsj/publications/human_rights_magazine_home/voting-rights/-use-it-or-lose-it---the-problem-of-purges-from-the-registration0/"]enough[/URL] [URL="https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/16/politics/dnc-voter-purges-tool/index.html"]articles[/URL] pointing out purges targeting Dems though.

Mail-in voting: I have yet to see anybody from the fed other than our dear sweet innocent President claim mail-in voting (that he has also used for years before becoming President) is subject to widespread fraud. And the idea that you can walk up to someone's mailbox and steal their mail doesn't scare me, because if you've ever read anything on the USPS postal inspector police you'd know they are regarded as one of the top law enforcement agencies in the nation, because mail fraud is a federal crime. And the idea that widespread ballot fraud could happen (with no supporting evidence) seems ludicrous. 9 ballots in PA go missing and it immediately became a national story, with the FBI and USPS police investigating. Imagine what would happen if 5k mailed in ballots went missing.

Glad we can both agree on gerrymandering, it is absolutely dogshit and I wish we had a nonpartisan federal commission that would oversee it since the SCOTUS punted on the issue.

Also totally agree on voting - if this country is as free as we all think it is, the idea that we have to wait hours in line on a Tuesday to vote is stupid. Expand the avenues and early voting, use national registries like the USPS address changing system to avoid unnecessary purging, we should be doing everything we can to get more people to vote, not less.
