Seeing as we are approaching the presidential debates, and with the actual election being only 42 days away, maybe we could keep this as a US election megathread for those on here who are interested? One location for all the discussion would prevent multiple threads clogging up the board for those who don't care to get involved?
Personally, the reality of having to experience this election in the near future is stressful AF so if anyone else wants to get stressed together... Jump on board.
Now, insert all the usual caveats about polling here but...it's looking positive that we will be rid of Trump come 2021, much to the disappointment of a couple of posters on here. 538 are well respected in the field of poll analysis so what they announce should be taken seriously.
Of course their analysis doesn't take account of any election fraud, Russian interference, voter suppression etc. But it's positive news none the less. Once Trump is gone, we can work on Johnson. Decent people of the world... Unite!

Much like with Brexit, isn't there a large fundamental truth we need to be discussing in relation to the kind of people that support this side show - namely you're either in the vastly wealthy group, or in the group impacted by the state crippling the education system so badly that your intelligence and critical thinking levels are through the floor?
The only way this extremism is going away is for any country with this issue to elect governments that value education and critical thinking enough to sink resources into it over the course of a generation. [Post edited 30 Oct 2020 21:17]

To me, it seems like Trump is doing all he can to hold back the rising tide of a Democrat win. You can see the panic.in his words and actions. These rallies are only appealing to his cult. They aren't winning over anyone else.
At this point, only superstition is preventing me from feeling confident that he will lose this election by a significant margin. | |

But have the authorities insisted that the rally be socially distanced? | | | |

In Minnesota? Yes they have. Sorry, I misunderstood your post initially. I have no idea how they'll enforce it if the cultists drag all their chairs together though.
Not sure if it's started yet. Let me check Fox News.
Edit - starts in 40 minutes. Attendance limited to 250 apparently. [Post edited 30 Oct 2020 22:06]

If true, seems like an excellent argument for socialised health care to me... |
Perhaps they could start to rebuild their crumbling infrastructure with the money they save from their current absurd 'pet care plan' type of 'healthcare'.
Or maybe they could go full stupid and introduce this ridiculous system for the fire serve, the coast guard, the schools and the police
Though I cannot see the armed forces being forced into this nonsense.
Clinical need over private greed will be their demand | | | |

This may sound daft, but does anyone else think that he is actually trying to lose?
I mean, he's known for a while that he's not going to win, right? So what's the next best scenario - a landslide for Biden so that Trump can leave the WH forever claiming it was rigged, which is why his numbers are so low.
It's possible, as others have said, that he never wanted, or expected to win back in 2016, so maybe he would be happy to go back to his old life of being a 'property tycoon' - with the added benefit of being an ex-President. |  |

Yeah, according to the Fire and Fury book, the plan in 2016 was to finish a close 2nd and become the most famous man in the world. I suppose he's accomplished half of that.
Not sure he's trying to lose this time though, his ego wouldn't be able to take the loss of power after he's tasted it. |  |
