The only question is, what will happen when trump gets re-elected after the inevitable, widespread voter fraud, fake news and dirty election tactics?

Few times more interesting than that of Paris Commune 2: Seattle Boogaloo.
Unless the electoral suppression/fraud is on a level heretofore unseen - which to be fair isn't an outside possibility - then there is a solid basis for projecting the election not even at the standard pre-pandemic 3-to-5-point Biden win, but as a genuine 10+-point blowout. If this happens it will be due to Trump's epic Idi Amin-tier maleficent sadomasochism.

This will be such an important election for the whole world, I cannot stress this enough. I don't think people have ever ever been so interested and invested in an American Presidential election.

Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

Speaking of elections and the current state, a significant problem explained below.
Fascinating data from the NYT: the day Biden decisively overtook Trump in raising money was the day that he picked Harris as his VP. Also Trump only outraised Biden on two days over the past two months.

Has it hit anyone else that the election day is in less than a week? Crazy.
Meanwhile my very conservative university professor/advisor told me today that he voted straight Dem in Georgia today for the first time ever. Pretty amazed. I dont want to get my hopes up, but my former professor cant be the only one.

Regarding earlier posts about "hispanic" voters in USA.
1. The more recent term of art is Latinex, avoiding a presumption of sex superiority and noting that Spanish, while very common as a language and cultural antecedent of these cultures and co-cultures, is not ubiquitous. Portugese, Nuhuatl (sp?), and Mayan influences along with any number of West African influences are part of the Latinex mix.
2. Latinex voters are not a monolith. Cuban descent, especially among older generations, are staunchly GOP on the basis of hate/opposition for the Castro regime. Most of the other Latinex groups are much more divided and many trend Democratic.
