The Trump implosion thread!

Quote: Dalex64

Is Trump claiming credit for this financial news, reported by Fox news research?

How do you claim credit for something the
Fed did. Now it's gone up almost 1000
so far this week, maybe he can take
credit for that.

Correct. There is a ton written on this
subject, and it all comes to the same
conclusion.

Research has found that eyewitness testimony can be very unreliable.. Although witnesses can often be very confident that their memory is accurate..the malleable nature of human memory and visual perception makes eyewitness testimony one of the most unreliable forms of evidence.

Going to a hour plus show in the last 6 months, versus a brief view of an unknown person? There's no memory issue to debate unless it's you own memory about what you read.

ROTFL
This is rich
EB can never use eyewitness testimony in his arguments.
Somebody sits in a sold out room for hours and EB compares that memory of a brief glance

She did a THREE HOUR standup set. We were there from 8-11pm.

At the start, she warned us that she was going to go for three hours. She said feel free to get up to pee, leave if you have babysitter issues, etc. She wouldn't mind. I saw many people get up for potty/snack/drink breaks, but I didn't notice anyone leave the show early.

This is just too funny

Trump: "You have caravans coming up that look a lot larger than it's reported actually. I'm pretty good at estimating crowd size. And I'll tell you they look a lot bigger than people would think,"

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2018/11/01/trump-says-border-troops-could-hit-15k-surprising-pentagon.html

The Pentagon is planning on mobilizing 5 to 7 thousand troops. The announcement hasn't helped republican polling numbers, so he ups his game - 10k troops, 15k! Well that's news to the Pentagon.

And now the only person who knows the real size of the caravans is Trump himself - he is pretty good at estimating crowd size!

He is acting truely desperate, trying to buy votes (phantom tax cut) trying to scare votes, while the republicans have been working very hard to suppress votes.

In Michigan, in my county, nearly 50,000 absentee ballots have been mailed out, more than double the amount of the last election. The county has been strongly Democrat for the past 25 years or so. So I will give credit for Trump for one thing - increasing voter turnout.

How is it exactly that the GOP is working to suppress votes?

I used to go to sold out Madison Square Garden all the time to see the Grateful Dead back in the day
Sitting there for 4 hours eyewitnessing a soldout crowd
I could of sworn the place was packed
but
Maybe EB is right, maybe I miss remembered and Madison Square Garden was empty. ROTFL

Two recent in the news examples are an exact-match law, and a street address requirement law, and many examples of harassment and unequal treatment under the various laws.

A lot of this is perpetuated under the lie that voter fraud is a big problem, when evidence supports voter suppression as an actual widespread problem and voter fraud is very minor and limited.

The news is filled with republican dirty tricks aimed to suppress votes. Closing polling stations in Democrat areas, in areas where people have limited personal transportation, reducing polling place hours, one example of sudden "road construction" that "forced" a polling place to be closed. It goes on and on.

I am not surprised that you would try to claim ignorance on this, and won't be surprised when you refuse to acknowledge that any of these acts are problems.

Yeah. He’s not even worth engaging on this. The gaslighting gets old fast.

Even a voter like me was harassed
I was in total shock
I already voted and I actually had a hard time voting
They did not like my signature. They said my signature needed to match
WTF, Its a signature, no 2 exactly alike, simply similar
They actually refused my signature, it was not similar enough.
I had to sign again trying to imitate exactly my sig on my License.
She studied the sig a few min then allowed me to vote
Really sad what this country has come to
