    Maybe

    But I think part of the game plan for the Trump camp is to psych out the electorate. It's possibly a 'bluff' of sorts - they don't have as much support as they'd like, but they think if they make it sound like it's what every republican is doing, they'll get the votes they need to win.

    They may very well win, and I could be completely wrong... but am I the only person who thinks Trump's approach is psyching out his opponent?

    Last night I saw two programs about Trump's China operations. It seems Trump has had secret corporations operating in China and at least one or two bank accounts. Journalists have uncovered the activities in one of these accounts which showed Trump had little going on for some time then right after he got elected, someone deposited over $17 million dollars in that account. Then, in early 2017, Trump withdrew $15 million from that account for himself. The investigation also showed Trump paid $188,000 in income taxes to the Chinese government. Contrast that with the $750 pittance he paid the IRS in America. The investigators also uncovered a a real estate purchase of a New York swanky apartment or condo which Trump's daughter and son in law had sold to wealthy Chinese investors. From that Transaction, Trump collected another $5 million for himself. It seems all that Trump tells his base about China is not complete, and not completely true. Trump has some secret activity in China, after telling the American people he would divest himself from his business activity. Our new Attorney General should initiate an investigation into The Trump Organized Crime Operations.

    Now that Trump's Chinese secret banking activities have been exposed, he'll not be re-elected.

    Everyone on Trump's side is a political hack with no familiarity when it come to intelligence.

    "Alan Garten, a lawyer for the Trump Organisation, would not identify the bank in China where the account is held. He told the newspaper the company had “opened an account with a Chinese bank having offices in the United States in order to pay the local taxes” associated with efforts to do business there, after establishing an office in China “to explore the potential for hotel deals in Asia"

    Donald Trump tax records reveal bank account in China

    They tried unsuccessfully to open a few hotels there over a decade ago

    Yawn

    The guy you should be paying attention to is Cyrus Vance. He's got all his ducks in a row , and ready too.

    LOL you mean this guy?
    Cyrus Vance Jr. - Wikipedia.

    From August 2017, allegations appeared across various news media outlets concerning Vance's associations, and certain contributions made to his office in relation to past cases. Under scrutiny are the Manhattan DA's handling of allegations of sexual assault against film producer Harvey Weinstein,[79] and allegations of his handling of improper conduct by members of the Trump family around the Trump SoHo development.[80][81] Critics have suggested that contributions to the DA around these times were directly linked to Vance not prosecuting these cases. Vance has defended the actions of his office, citing insufficient evidence to prosecute in each case

    Until 2015, Vance served alongside Donald Trump as a member of the Board of Directors of the Police Athletic League of New York City, a non-profit youth development agency that helps inner-city children

    Save this post so Trump has something to read when he is in Cyrus Vance's holding cell.

    Former US Attorney Barbara McQuaid of Michigan told last night on MSNBC that Cyrus Vance has at least 6 Federal Crimes that Trump could be charged with; and, they are solid cases. I wouldn't be surprised if several members of the Trump Organized Crime operation end up in prison for the next 20 years.

    Muslims currently make up 1.1% of the U.S. population. Highly unlikely they'll be taking over soon. The thing I worry about is a takeover by right wing loonies who think (lol) Donald Trump is "the greatest President the USA has ever elected". Dax, you're such a card! Donald Trump is the worst US president in history, according to nearly 200 political scientists

    In our post-modern world, everything is supposed to be relative. "How can we be sure, in a world that's constantly changing?" Are professional journalists reporting facts or making them up? Breitbart and Steve Bannon made careers out of sowing doubt about fake news--which is never the news they're reporting. We aren't supposed to question that. Notice that when Dax makes his grand pronouncements and dismisses everybody else's views as lies and fake news, he rarely if ever supplies supporting facts or details. How are we to judge what he says? Why not go to the source?

    Trump is certainly around a lot in his tweets, campaign rallies, speeches, debates, and interviews. Watch and listen. Does this man strike you as "the greatest President the USA has ever elected?" When he tells us about how the American revolutionaries in the eighteenth century took over the airfields, that windmills cause cancer, that he is the "chosen one", that the Covid 19 virus will just disappear one day, or "it's freezing and snowing in New York, we need global warming", does that strike you as something a "stable genius" would say. When he brags about grabbing women by their pussies because he has the power to do so, does that make you think highly of him? When he vilifies anyone who crosses him, makes fun of a disabled reporter, shoves the President of Montenegro out of his way, the tells Dr. Fauci he's an idiot, or constantly interrupts and drowns out Biden during the debate, do you think that's characteristic of a great leader and president? Do you think it's fitting that the President of the United States repeatedly calls for locking up his political opponents and leads audiences in chants to do that, even after one of them, the governor of Michigan, has been the target of a kidnapping plot by right wing extremists? Does all this put him a few notches ahead of George Washington and honest Abe, in your opinion. If you say "yes", I question your judgment. The news media didn't make this stuff up. Not many people could.

    2020 Presidential Election Polls: Biden vs. Trump

    The Donald's going to win the EC vote
