At least I have seen a lot of news what guns "do" in high schools, colleges, streets and where ever. I have hardly seen an event where guns "build" sth within the society. Regarding Biden hiding in his basement...that is fake news for real https://thehill.com/homenews/campaig...iden-in-new-ad BTW has Trump guts?....in doing what ? Fighting the pandemia ? Fighting racism ? Uniting the country ? Or in just fighting for his relection ? The only fight which I see as a "foreigner" is the fight against China. You may count this as having guts. The "only" issue with this fight is that the US will lose this fight when fought it in that way - I guess there are enough scholar books about the fight in the cold time area available toady to relearn the lessons. One pillar to learn from that is not to butt in front of the head regarding your allies and partners - even if they have their issues and are not perfect. But science does not count a lot these days (not only in the US to be fair). Or as Bill Gates mentionted it recently. " The world did not do enough to prepare for a pandemic. We can avoid making the same mistake with climate change by: 1. Letting science and innovation lead the way " Frankly, I do not think this will happen in this decade, regardless of the topic. Especially the younger generation will pay the price. How much will they curse the old ones ?

Maybe mail in voting will work ... it works in Hawaii

Oregon has voted by mail since 1998, too.
The only problem with mail in voting is that it makes voting easier, which is bad for the GOP. |

Why is that?

He’s already implied he will not only screw up the voting process but will have months to count and contend. He thinks he can buy time that way.

Mail in ballots up until now have always been at the request of the individual voter, now you have millions of additional mail in ballots needing to be mailed and collected, with no way to track whether those ballots are valid or not. Instead of trying to screw up the election with vote by mail (I know some states have done it Oregon being one, but in their case they have a population of 4.5 million, and have been doing it for a while. Try that next door in California with a population of 40 million and with at least 3 million illegal immigrants, along with another 5-6 million Legal immigrants not eligible to vote, and you should be able to get an idea of the problem when expanding it nationwide with only 90 days to the official election.) the Government should expand the number of polling places (schools would be good, most are currently empty) and extend the the voting period from 1 day to 3 days. That should allow people to vote at min risk, while maintaining the integrity of the vote. |

Do you have any actual proof of that?

Could the enemy (russia and china) be using reverse psychology
Who's spreading the false news and rumors that Trump won't accept the results of the National Election if he loses? A lie is a lie ... must be the New York Times Plus if Russia and China are involved in this election? Which side are they on? Wouldn't they welcome another socialist style state to take down?

Rigging elections by gerrymandering.
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/27/u...mandering.html https://www.washingtonpost.com/busin...t-problematic/ https://www.britannica.com/topic/gerrymandering http://www.fairdistrictsohio.org/wha...mandering.html Quote:
This and the electoral collage are what simply derails the American voting system and leads this "free election" ad absurdum. Its rigged, plain and simple. I never have and still do not buy the acrobatic attempts to explain why this system was designed and how much it helps to protect minorities from majporities. It doesn't. It riggs elections, it steals elections, and thats why it is being done this way. And it is currently dominantly done in Republican-controlled states. The party of Nixon, Bush jr and Trump knows what it owes to its reputation, it seems. Principally, similiar fraud is beign tried in other Western voting systems, including the German one, as well. But to my best knowledge: nowhere to such an excessive, shameless extend.

@Mr Quatro
Which side Russia and China is on? Surely not on the US side. Putin helped Trump to offfice because he knows that he is no rival, neither politically nor intellectually. Good for Trump, bad for America. "President Donald Trump refused to commit to accepting the results of the 2020 election and ensuring a peaceful transition of power in an interview with "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace aired Sunday." "I have to see, look, I have to see, I'm not just going to say yes, I'm not going to say no, and I didn't last time either," Trump said when Wallace directly asked if he would accept the election results. Blah, blahblah. Who knows whether there will be elections? Of course i do not believe that he will be able to pull this stunt thanks to some reasonable Americans, but spouting off about the possibility he does all the time.

I don't think it's easy, the Chinese don't think like we do anyway

This is a map of New York’s 10th United States Congressional District in New York City. It is currently held by Rep. Jerry Nadler who is a Democrat. Care to guess why it is shaped like that? New York City's proportion of white people is about is about 42%. In Jerry Nadler's District it is 62% with only about 4% black. NYC has about 24% black population. Coincidence? Right.
