I can't help but feel that the days following November 5th we will have a lot of MAGA crap to contend with. And, we will prevail. Maybe I too am a practical Pollyanna. I'm glad I'm in good company, Joyce.

I hope and pray that your optimism survives this election. In the meantime (and forgive me if I've left this comment on one of your previous posts) I keep going back to David Sedaris and what he had to say about undecided voters. Paraphrasing him: "So the flight attendant asks whether you want the chicken for lunch or the sh1t with ground glass, and you ask how the chicken is prepared."

Thanks, I hadn't heard that but it is so darned true. So Sedaris.

The equation for the election always results in one side winning. I have never seen an equation where both sides are forgiving…

And Biden said the budget next year will be $6 trillion. The budget has been bordering on for trillion last four years and I think it went over this year but they had to borrow almost a tree and I think there’s not enough taxes your taxes may double and the money will disappear. There’s no audits of it. The military says a tree is missing. They can’t find it well. The highest ranking officer should be Court, Marshall if he didn’t tell you where the money is he’s denied everything he’s putting in jail for minimum of five years to go to the next one and, if he doesn’t know punishment thing you’re supposed to be the military know you have a book you have a checking account and keep track your check. Should the money go last touch it goes to jail for treason punishable by death. That’ll wake some people up they won’t execute them, but you put them in prison for life.

After the election when Biden and Office I predict less than a year maybe a year and a half United States will go bankrupt and it will split into four countries. I can tell you the states and what they’re gonna do if you want, but the United States has ended and you have to remember one thing one big quote.

Throughout history, every grade empire has collapsed. There have been no exceptions. We are where Russia was in 1980 we will probably split into four countries.

Thanks for a response I definitely didn't want to hear or think about. Sounds like a descent into war to me.
