[What no one talks about is the blatant fact that Joe Biden is now America’s Manchurian candidate as his platform has migrated from ‘bipartisan civility’ to hard left socialism. That ol’ Bumblebrain is the ‘safe alternative’ to Trump and will bring the country back on even keel is perhaps the biggest lie that the Dems and their lamestream are foisting on Americans. Joe has made a bait and switch pact with the devil, and is now our proto-communist candidate a la Bernie and AOC, having publicly accepted and promised to implement their respective policy prescriptions. And no one knows or even cares about it, as the Hate Trump campaign outshouts all else. (more here) gjr]

More bad news for the Trumpers. The RCP Electorial College Map shows Biden with a 212-115 lead in delegates. This means Trump needs to win 156 of the 211 toss up delegates to win the election-around 75%

That news is a week old, and it came about when 10 projected electors slipped away from Biden…it had been 222/115, with a whole bunch that could go either way.
Coupled with a whole bunch of people who won’t tell a stranger calling they’ll be voting for Trump leads me to believe Trump will get the lions share of electors that are too close to call… less than three months away from election day.

For the Electoral College debaters, I invite them to do a little exercise. Download the EC spreadsheet tool I created, and insert in there your own assessments for how the states must be assigned in order for Trump to have any given (your pick) probability of winning. And then consider how real that picture looks. If you send the resulting spreadsheet to me with your ‘solution’, I’ll post. So far this talk without any specifics is just idle hot air. BTW, I did my own assessment, and was not able to come up with a believable assignment of chances for Trump’s victory. I’ll keep working on it.

Speaking of violence against Trump supporters and those that also get “polling” calls. I have a Trump banner at my house and last month it was defaced by people unknown. Now these lovelies had to park on the street and cross my lawn to my front porch to do their deed. Anyway, just a small example of friends of Paul Emery maybe. And I have had friends cars keyed for having a Trump sticker on them. Polls are under-reporting R’s by 10 points and when they get through to a Trump voter those voters lie to the pollster. So sit back and watch the show. We now see 500,000 Virginia ballots with a return address to a democrat operatives address. Looks kinda like Trump is right about the mail-in ballots potential for fraud.

“Officers responded and watched a cell phone video someone had taken. With that video, and knowing the time the shooting occurred, they found the van’s license tag number from surveillance cameras. That led them to discover the van was a rental, and ultimately to Manoguerra, Johnson said.
The captain said Manoguerra claimed no allegiance to a specific group, though he noted: “He very specifically targeted the Back the Blue people.” ”

In the case of George Floyd, he died while resisting arrest. The officers are accused of committing various crimes while restraining him. They were fired without a hearing and will be tried. They are presumed to be innocent until proven guilty. There appears to be zero evidence of a racial motive and no one has even offered to provide any such evidence.
And yet we have seen violent and costly rioting on the pretext that there is no ‘justice’.
Exactly what should have been done to provide this mysterious ‘justice’?

Paul Emery supports violence but only that perpetrated on the middle class and the right. He could perhaps convince us if he traveled to Minneapolis and helped those businesses the BLM burned down to repair and get back. But he won’t. If the black guy pummeling the little white girls on Broad street was unseen by Emery, then we can say not only does he edit the words in his “news” he even edits his vision.
