If you seen him making a bet this year, you’d pm the other person and warn them though...... that’s good enough!

Bump...!

Trump climbing in the polls!

I’ll take one more die hard Trumper to make it a 4 vs 1 bet.

Win or lose.... it’ll be fun.

I’m thinkin I’ll be down 200.

Um..... who actually declares the winner officially..?

Cause it sounds like that could be rather interesting this time around..?

Such a hard thing to guess.

I hope Trump comes through. He’s entertaining and better for Albertan oil and gas. Biden wants to cancel pipelines and jobs.

I honestly can’t say who win win. The electoral college is a strange one.

If Biden loses the pundits say oh well. If Trump loses and publicly claims electoral fraud then they say the right fanatics will riot.

I expect calm after the storm versus storm after the storm. I hope the frantic panic rhetoric in the media is mostly media driven to drive people to watch the news, increase ratings and sell more advertising.

I just hope for calm. Whoever wins in the end wins and in 4 years another change.

There is no chance in hell Biden can win without rigging the election or cheating some other ways. If that happen - I’m not sure what to expect from the crowd.
If Trump wins- actually, when Trump wins,- I can guarantee 100% that we will see massive riots and more burning of the dem controlled cities.

Why would you say Biden can’t win without a rigged election ?

I agree, very odd statement to make of a free democracy. Especially with likely absolutely zero first hand knowledge of any rigging taking place.

And of course if there is any massive, organized, coordinated wide spread "rigging", which it would have to be in a country of 330 million people to have the effect of stealing the election from the "overwhelming choice of the masses" there wouldn't be a shred of evidence left behind, would there?

And also the rigging is only going to be by one side, because the other side are as honest as the day is long and the chosen ones as any level headed voter would know.

Conspiracy theories are for those that can't accept or deal with reality.

Zero first hand knowledge of rigging, conspiracy? You can find plenty of examples with little effort!

Yup, that's proof beyond a reasonable doubt from a reputable source.

You do understand what "first hand knowledge" is don't you? Finding some questionable dribble on the internet and cutting and pasting it here doesn't quite "cut" it.

How long do you would think it would take to find something similar on the internet, but from the other side?

Trump started the Voting Integrity Commission after the 2016 election. It was quietly shut down with findings that amounted to nothing. US elections, considering the magnitude of the event, are remarkably well run and and blaming the process or questioning the results is BS from both parties.

Bingo!

Just because Trumpty Dumpty says something, that doesn't automatically make it true. History has shown that quite the opposite is usually the norm.

Questioning voting integrity or claiming widespread voting fraud is a strategy for losers grasping at straws.

I think it would be hilarious if it was a three way tie between Biden, Trump and West. Who wins then?

Because only absolutely brain dead people can vote for him. Or the people who are willing to vote for anything but Trump. I sincerely hope that they are in a minority.... If dems could’ve produced another candidate who is at least coherent and can finish the sentence - then I can assume that there are people who are willingly voting for him/her. I can even understand those who were voting for Hillary... But for Biden? You just can’t be that silly!

bet365 is paying out 2.62 for a Trump win, if you all want to put your money where your mouth is. I believe it was 2.77 a few weeks ago.

If Trump wins he will be......"Democracy has shown once again that the people have the power and I will continue to fight for America and the people...America great...yadadayda......and another circus show for 4 more long years.

If Trump loses......."The election was rigged! The fake news conspired against me! This is an attack on freedom and our way of life".

Narrssisicts HATE to lose and this will be the most epic twitter meltdown known to man. I'm hoping for a president that doesn't like a man child when things do not go his way.

Pedo for Prez. Interesting. The hate must be strong.

For myself, I watched Trumps accomplishments over the course of 4 years, and not his Twitter (which was pretty easy as I don't really know what twitter is).

With all these tinfoil hat conspiracy theories I am shocked there is not a severe aluminum shortage right now. 2020 is quite the year. I tend not to get involved or promote conspiracy theories but I guess everyone is entitled to their own sources. My only advice is to fact check your sources.

As far as his accomplishments over the last 4 years it is the same as all the presidents before him. Some good, some bad. It is more what the party stands for than the president himself.

Absolute verified and documented proof of this??? Maybe we should just start calling you Pedo and see if it sticks.

He's going to post a YouTube video of Biden doing his weird touchy-feely stuff. Then someone is going to post a video/photos of Trump doing similar things, or talking about how he would be interested in dating his own daughter if she weren't in fact his own daughter.

Rinse and repeat.

Yup, but's that's about all they've got to traffic in. Reality is their enemy.
