Anyone else feel like that in less than month, we might be remembering the good ol' days?

If Trump wins, who knows how much he will destroy the country. If he loses, he won't calmly accept defeat. Surely, he and his flying monkeys have a plan in place already. They've had 4 years to prepare.

When he loses I just hope the stroke happens on camera. Got nothing nice to say about a man who has had nothing nice to say about anyone.

Now that's not fair, he's got plenty of nice things to say about Putin and his daughter.

It's gonna get attempted to be stolen by local election officials.

If not, attempted to be stolen by governors

If not, attempted to be stolen by congress

If not, attempted to be stolen by the Supreme Court

Everyone should still vote, but that's gonna be step 1.

Don't count the chickens yet.. remember 2016 when everyone called it for Hillary. That went well.

And Clinton would have handily won had not the Director of the FBI suddenly announced, on Oct 28, 2016, that they were reopening her email investigation.

And everyone on Lemmy is blaming poor polling.

Regardless of the How, Arrogance was displayed and those that displayed it had to eat humble pie.. this post is daring fate for the same outcome again.

When did democrats become so blindly arrogant? This is looking like 2016 all over again.

With the polls going in the complete wrong direction (Trump improving) I don't think they'll need to resort to any serious bullshit. I think he's just going to outright win.

To be positive about it, we get to learn what it's like to have an absolute buffoon for a dictator and we'll be in the history books under the chapter: How could people be so unbelievably stupid?

The polls can be accurate or not, what matters is the actual votes. And the mention of Bannon is a reminder that they will try to capture power in any way possible. The latest openly admitted plan is to plant voting areas with people who question voters' authenticity, slowing and discouraging voting. New techniques, same idea. It doesn't have to become violent to be a silent takeover. Hell, it happened in 2000.

This may be a lesson to all the non-germans that can't comprehend that Hitler was elected...
