I'm starting to think that the U.S. should have election monitors of the sort associated with emerging democracies.

More on that subject.

Our survey found broad public support for international election observers. More than 70% agreed or strongly agreed to allow observers, with Democrats more supportive than Republicans – 77.2% and 65.3%, respectively. We found similarly high support between those preferring Joe Biden, 74.2%, and those preferring Donald Trump, 65.2%.

"There must have been at least a half a million people there!" (Note: not a real quote. Yet.)
More like about 400.
(eta -- I wondered if cropping the original picture would make it look like more people. Not really.)

ABC News has confirmed that attendees to Trump WH Rally were paid.
 
At the White House farce speech, Trump was sporting a hefty plaster (UK)/bandaid (US) on the back of his right hand, the kind of thing you have after a canula is removed, only much bigger. I've had a few of those and they were pretty small.

Well they obviously got free T-shirts and hats so that adds to the evidence.

Candace Owens' BLEXIT group pays for some attendees' travel to Trump's White House event
Attendees were told they "must" wear a BLEXIT shirt, according to emails.

Some guests for Saturday's White House event on the South Lawn, which will be President Donald Trump's first since testing positive for the coronavirus, had their travel and lodging paid for by controversial conservative activist Candace Owens' group BLEXIT, according to emails obtained by ABC News.

More interesting stuff in the article about the anti-BLM group.

The grift continues.

The Hitler apologist spent the afternoon on Twitter bragging that her 2,029 (her claim, no evidence given) person group were entirely peaceful, unlike the Women's March, or the various BLM rallies that have been overwhelmingly peaceful I suppose. Stunts like this would work on the sort of person that sees black people walking by their McMansions and run out improperly holding guns at the marchers, but those people are already voting for Dolt 45 anyway.

But they'll give her money for it.

(and I'll note, as always, that Blexit is a name that she stole from a Minnesota nonprofit group that supported black-owned local businesses.)

Somebody who's a few years older than me can maybe answer this.

Given that this:

US-Election-1972.png


is how Nixon won the election 1972 and he resigned / "You can't fire me I quit" in 1974...

How many open and proud Nixon supporters could you find in 1978-1980 or so?
 
Nixon's downfall is one contender for the trigger that set the GOP on its current path. The lesson they learned from his impeachment and disgrace wasn't "we need to have less morally bankrupt asshats," but "having standards is a poor political strategy."
 
Trump picks up Taliban endorsement

President Trump's reelection bid received a vote of support Friday from an entity most in his party would reject: the Taliban.


Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid told CBS News in a phone interview, "We hope he will win the election and wind up U.S. military presence in Afghanistan." The militant group expressed some concern about Mr. Trump's bout with the coronavirus. "When we heard about Trump being COVID-19 positive, we got worried for his health, but seems he is getting better," another Taliban senior leader told CBS News.

Remember how hard it was to find anyone who voted for Bush by late 2008?

The same thing might happen with Trump. But on the other hand, Bush's popularity actually fluctuated... Rising after 9/11, and then falling when Iraq became a quagmire and the recession hit. Trump's popularity seems to be stuck in the 40% range. Its possible that the MAGAchuds will stick with him long after he leaves office.

:dl:

Not many people can be endorsed by both the KKK and the Taliban.

When you add in Kim Jung-Un, Vladimir Putin, Mohammed bin Sultan, Narendra Modi, Recep Erdogan and Jair Bolsonaro, how could you not vote for him?
