Obviously there are more Trump fans in the thread so more people will will be disappointed with a Biden victory but for the hardcore posters who will take it the worst?

Both will be fun meltdowns to watch. I would assume the left fanatics would have the bigger meltdowns. They seem to be the less stable group.

I kid you not, they're letting students of color back first as part of a phase in approach. White kids come last (noted as "other").

Maybe they are expecting black on black crime and want to protect the white student. This is called white privelege.

But it seems crazy to me that schools are phasing students in based on race. I can't believe this kind of stuff is openly happening in 2020.

I can't believe the POTUS is supporting racism and the confederate flag in 2020.....

Also - I agree with you on the educational justice thing.... people taking things WAY too far

I swear, Governor Bitchmer in Michigan is not going to open until cases are at 0. She is planning to roll back reopening because of the cases.

I can’t imagine the country or even a state that doesn’t have kids back in school. That would be chaos for parents.

Lamont here in CT already rolled back his next phase of reopening. CT has the lowest rates in the country; less than 70! people in the hospital right now from COVID and an average of 2-3 deaths per day for the last couple of weeks.

But he said he's worried about what is happening in other states, so he's cancelled the July 20th plan to open indoor businesses and expand capacity. Another example of moronic leadership.

And people are defending this, it's a joke. It's an abuse of power to the tenth degree.

It's just pretty much accepted. Still a large # of businesses that are closed here; will remain closed through August now.

I was sitting at Mohegan Sun on Sunday night, they've added the thick plastic dividers to every table game now and there was a woman sitting at the table (only 3 people per table now) who was unbelievably crazy. Every person that walked by she eyed, took hand sanitizer after every hand, complained that someone was within six feet of her a couple of times; and complained that the waitress was not wearing gloves when she delivered her a drink.

And all I thought was "Yet, here she sits, at a casino".

They've been called the silent majority for the last 4 years. Silent is apt.

Didn't they form the Tea Party and have a "Million Man March" on DC after Obama was elected?

I seem to remember some pretty hilarious signs. No pussy hats though

The million man march was organized by Farrakhan in 1995, I'm not sure the march you're referencing. But yes, they did form a new political group as a result of Obama winning an election, not sure I would call that a "meltdown".

Glenn Beck's 9/12 movement or something like that? I forgot that guy even existed until I opened up my memory banks. Maybe yours are lacking as well.

It was just as funny as the stuff we see today. Sorry you missed out.

My member meltdown would be GoTribe!, for the record. Only because the others have been shunned from the thread.

I think I'd still choose jgil for my dark horse candidate if Trump wins though, he's come on strong in this thread.

Well, that's it. Based on this unsubstantiated allegation from a disgruntled person looking to make money on her book, I will have to shift my political support to Joe Biden.

I posted a link to an article that does in fact - relate to a book.

Allegations at this point... yes - however they are concerning (IF true)

Or does Trump get a pass on this as well?

FT definitely has you beat. If I remember correctly he was suffering from TDSS which is why he was silenced in here.

Jdands, TheHeel, Budd or lonewolf have to get some votes for the left. Rman, Cnewby, babyfaceposey, coach and tpeicel for the right

Joan p, FullTritty, Chezzball and gobullz for the exiled members.
