Recommended by Ricochet Members Created with Sketch. Election Day Release

 

I was in Austin, Texas on Election Day, 2016. I voted by mail for the first time in home-state Indiana, in anticipation of the conference I was to attend. I agreed with many that Trump was “less than presidential” in his approach, but I knew enough of the history of the Clinton Machine that her winning would be bad for all. Period. I had read “Art of the Deal” and I thought it provided understanding for his blunderbuss manners and negotiation tactics. I went to sleep that November 3rd without watching the election returns, giving it all to pray to God to continue to watch over America, regardless of the results.

The unknown political candidate now has four years of governing and policy results for all to see, about which to respond. But the mainstream media response toward these years have been mostly reports of investigation, trumpeted wrongdoings, and an impeachment so fragrantly partisan and illusory as to be beyond contempt. It feels as if nearly the entirety of the mainstream press, chief digital content manipulators, and Washington’s power apparatus is aligned against Trump, the man, not against any disputed policy results. Against him and anyone not shy to support him publicly.

That Joe Biden became the anti-Trump crusade’s best facade speaks volumes of the Democrat Party radical core and its inability to speak to the broad base of those who believe in American values. The hot air expelled in praising his empty platitudes and vacuous attacks, while shielding him from investigative reporting of his own wrongdoing, has stretched the bubble of Biden facade to the breaking point. When it bursts, all the malignant energy to redo America will come forth, whether he wins or loses.

I will stand in line with Mrs. Indy today to vote, and we will watch the returns, with you, tonight. God bless America, and be with us in what comes next.

    indymb: God bless America, and be with us in what comes next.

    Indeed. I won’t be bothering to watch the returns. Whatever happens will be waiting in the morning or next week or the week after. Whenever the vote counting gets done or the Dems give up on more fraud.

    I’ll watch some tonight. The congressional race here (Indiana 5) is supposed to be tight because the D’s think soccer moms are offended. If they’re not, it won’t be a long wait for the result. The polling here shows either candidate with a seven-point advantage, and that probably says all you need to know about how the polls have been “fixed” since 2016.

    Update: Looks like we’ve held Indiana 5. A seven-point lead with 89 percent in seems like it would be final, but who knows? D’s may be up to their tricks.

    I went to sleep last night, just as I did in 2016. Not as happy as that time, though. I am seeing what looks like massive fraud in several key states, plus my own state of Arizona. Apparently, poll workers handed out Sharpie pens to voters at some polling places. Sharpie pens soak through and invalidate ballots. I don’t yet know where in AZ that occurred.
