    I give up on this labeing crap! I do know that for years both parties have been leading us down the same socialist/ marxist cesspool. We'll call them "establishment". I'll call them swamp.....and you are there!

    Chortle, chortle, what Socialism or Marxism is that then? I really can't understand why right wingers would throw out these labels! First, it demonstrates that they don't understand Socialism or Marxism. Second, it indicates that they aren't aware of the US's neoliberalism (and therefore the corruption of classical liberalism). Double whammy.

    Sorry Mike, but recent polling is showing that younger voters are rejecting the DNC in very large numbers. Trump will get a larger portion of the 18 to 24 age bracket than he did in 2016.

    Sorry - younger voters rejecting the DNC does not translate into their accepting the RNC - the polls show they have great disdain for both.

    That would be too simple and anti-chaotic. In other words, it is a Democrat non-starter.

    If you think ANYTHING is simple and non-chaotic in a system with over 150 million possible voters involved, you are kidding yourself.

    Voter registration numbers are moving towards the GOP.

    Hard to get enthusiastic about Biden, but Trump is doing fine with the youth vote projections.

    BOTH parties have lost 4% of voters since 2000. The trend is away from party politics to Independents. That 10% of Independent voters in the middle will swing elections - not the base of either party.

    Submit ID... Get a voting ballot.

    Versus... Lets see if this mail truck has some random ballots that were not turned in.
    Versus, lets see if China can produce phony ballots that will go undetected.
    Versus, did I just get a ballot for someone else who hasn't lived at my address in over 20 years?

    This is pretty hard for even the most prolific BSers on this site to try to twist.

    Perhaps the judges on the DC Court of Appeals, who are playing God with the Flynn case, can figure it out a talking point that will project doubt.

    Meanwhile, "That Plow Won't Scow."

    New voter registrations of 18 to 24 year olds is showing that the GOP is gaining more support than the DNC is.

    In most states, voting in the primaries requires a party affiliation. Perhaps you can claim that some of it amounts to oppositional voting, but the polling isn't reflecting too much of that.

    If you're old and can't make it to the polls - you don't get a vote.
    If you can't leave your job on a Tuesday or you're one of the millions who travel as part of your work - you don't get to vote.
    If you're scheduled to work a 12 hour shift on that Tuesday - you don't get to vote.
    If you live in a small, rural area and live a long way from a polling station - you may not get to vote.

    The Law of Unintended Consequences is always at work.

    What a load of crap the fascism, at the moment, down to and including book burnings and cancel culture is all on the left.

    You can prove this?

    Since 2018, it is the first time in over a hundred years that the number of registered
    Independents is larger than the number of registered Republicans.

    So why in the world would anyone trust ballots that are sent out into an unsecure environment?

    Again, its so simple to understand how much of an undesirable alternative it is.

    Right now, anyone across the country can request an absentee ballot. There is no valid reason for a bulk mail process. None !!!

    Because of the uniqueness of handwriting. Wasn't that clear?

    Yeah and the beer hall putsch never happened. And Krystalnact didn't happen, Mussolini's fascist bully boys didn't terrorise any Italians

    I do not expect you to understand fascism. I do expect the right wing to sleepwalk until its far too late.

    I understand fascism far better than you and how it begins and how it comes to power. Antifa in Portland and Seattle are engaged in exactly the same sorts of activities as was Hitler's SA.

    Hahaha! Such a strong argument. I've gone through the definition of fascism in depth, demonstrating its applicability to the US so beloved by the right. Search it out as I know you're not going to manage any interesting critique here.

    18 to 24? All demographic groups? Or just the ones most in decline?

    That doesn't sound likely to me, but of course I hope you're right.
