David, the populace must be spoon fed. Sorry to say. And the message is not getting out apparently of Trump's real danger as you stated. A Kamala rally attendants are already Kamala voters. And MAGA only watches Fox. We need independent PRIME TIME General Milley and others. Republicans for Harris in prime time TV. Project 2025 and all the other threats to our democracy, must be spoon fed in prime time TV. Not wanting to denigrate any American but just look at the demographic of MAGA cultists.

It is frightening and sickening. I do not want to live in a country led by that man and his party of criminals and it would gut me to pay taxes to them but I am an old woman with medical issues and a fixed income, so I have no options. This year has been agony and I know it is far from over.

Hello, Carolyn. I am also a senior (77 yrs. old.) I just wanted to let you know that I share your concern.

Best.

I am a 70 year old gay man with sudden health conditions after a lifetime of healthy living and exercise.

I saw this coming when that horrid Palin creature got the nomination and I left the country in 2010. I am not going back.

I grew up in a part of Virginia with civil war memorabilia all around me ; I remember the moon landing and I was proud to be an American.

No longer. Not when do many support the vileness that is Trump.

Donna Israel's avatar

Hi, Chris. I hope that your health may be temporary. I also have a difficult time right now feeling patriotic, but there is the possibility that the tide is turning. Stay tuned.

Best,

Donna

I am in the same position.

Since the Biden administration will be in charge after the election (& not trump), the administration should be prepared to put down any insurrection immediately or put the fear of swift prosecution in anyone subverting our elections! The administration needs to make a strong statement about this before the election. Where are our intelligence agencies on this? Anyone listening in on GOP planning strategies to steal the election? We all know it’s happening!

Forget the riot shields. Call an air strike on the beards.

David if only THEY followed your podcast or even read the things Dems forward to THEM, maybe we ‘d have humans instead of zombies running around! Scary 😱

Trump is trying to recruit thousands of poll watchers to intimidate voters coming to vote. The democrats should recruit their own army to stand up to anyone trying to intimidate a voter at the polls. With both sides recruiting armies, this could be the catalysis for the next civil war.

We really need a judiciary willing to enforce the law! Then Trump would be in jail.

Spitting in the wind is a detriment to the spitter!

Let's hope he dies. He's obese and eats garbage and is rotting from within.

The problem with that is Vance is probably going to be worse, and he's not done as deranged as El Pendejo. 🙄

Donna Israel's avatar

I don't wish negative thoughts on anyone because "Karma" gets around. However, to your point: "Que sera!

Greg Thymius's avatar

Worse comes to worse, President Biden simply can say, "Nope," and mobilize the troops against the MAGA movement.

The President now has total immunity, you know.

I have tremendous concern for our USA neighbors and what you are all dealing with in this election. As you have pointed out, David, voting for Trump would not be good for the USA and certainly not for the other North America countries. I am wondering if more highlight should not be put on Vance as he will eventually take over from Trump due to Trump's decline. Trump may in fact just be a figurehead with Vance with project 2025 doing all the work from the get go. Vance is just as big, if not bigger, threat than Trump because Vance is at least intelligent even if sorely misguided.

And completely unqualified.

You're preaching to the choir in the first half of this, David. The MAGAts won't read it, of course, and the choir is well aware of every point you make, but keep making those points. The oh so polite NYT isn't doing it, so somebody must. WaPo needs to take the gloves off more seriously and call out the moron on his lies daily. NPR is trying, as is MSNBC, but those voices aren't enough. Besides, the MAGAts, who need to hear this, pay not the slightest attention to those leftists media. The second half of today's column is chilling laid out like this, but we all see it happening, of course. It's in the news every day what the army behind the moron is trying to pull. It was heartening to see that judge in Georgia slap down the vote count requirement, but those decisions are few and far between.

Donna Israel's avatar

John, your point is well taken. However, maybe we should take a page from the "Trump playbook." Repeat, repeat, and repeat!

John Crowe's avatar

You’re right. That’s how he got the MAGAts to believe the BiG LIE. Lie. Repeat Lie. Repeat. Etc.

Donna Israel's avatar

It is a teaching strategy, but it also could be "brainwashing!"

Craig's avatar

Hitler's bloody coup 101 years ago failed, during his year in jail he figured out a way to manipulate Hindenberg's democracy exactly the way you describe Trump here. I've heard the story, watched the movie; we all know it doesn't end well.

Bert Dandy's avatar

I have read or heard, like most people, Trump's infamous plea that he "... just needs to find 11,780 votes in Georgia... ". He then goes on, in the same sentence, to explain that that figure, 11,780, "... is one more than I have." He meant to say "need", not have. Yet, to date, nobody has pointed out this grade school grammar error on his part.

I'm in Australia and watching from here is just frightening. That a lunatic could be so manipulative begs credulity.

I think the Dems should start saying that if they lose the election, it was rigged in trumpet's favour. Play his game.

The fool doesn't give a hoot for anyone/thing but himself. We all know that. He will ignore his supporters if he wins. They are definitely enarmoured by their leader. Woe is me. Woe is the world.

PS - Thanks David for your work.

Harris needs to win the Senate and House, so laws can be made to stop what that man and his handlers have wrought. First the Filibuster, then the Electoral College, then NATIONAL voting laws. I don't expect Jan 6th to happen again the way it did last time. He has lost a LOT of people. What worries me more are the militias in training and just where DID all those young fighting men from other countries disappear to?

Donna Israel's avatar

He has "new" reinforcements!

Your words ring true and I thank our lucky stars for your voice and for the tireless work of Mark Elias, the attorney who stands up to the fraudsters in court.

Merritt Garland should have indicted all the subversive Congress members immediately after the attack on the Capitol. It would have exposed the sedition taking place behind closed doors and would have shown the voters exactly who aided and abetted the horrible activities on Jan. 6.

Our Justice system needs a major overhaul, something I hope Kamala will address as soon as she takes office.
