    Trump is barnstorming the country with wildly enthusiastic outdoor rallies in battleground states. The corruption and feebleness of Joe Biden has been written large for the whole world to see.

    Trump should win in a landslide.

    Well, I can tell you that it's looking very well - surprised this thing with Hunter is doing the damage it's doing. I'm wondering if twitter's protection did him far more harm than good.

    And the electric cars and fracking talk sure didn't help. Big issues for the Rust Belt and Joe is on the wrong side of both. Thousands of charging statements along the freeways, no one wants to take a road trip across the country if they have to stop every hundred miles to stop for fifteen minutes.

    one concern is the over 40 million votes already cast, which were done before the last debate. That's a good reason I dont like early voting, new information comes out but the votes already been made. Trump has said the same.

    But he won't say how much that could COST, & how he'd replace the fossil fuel jobs that'd be lost.

    The mainstream Dem party has taken a dangerous left turn, down Socialist Ave. Communist Curve is just down the road.

    Time to vote those Dems outta Congress & State Govt. houses. While Pelosi & AOC live in 'safe' districts that'll continue to re-elect them, many others do not, & 'flipping' the House to GOP would remove Pelosi as Speaker, & ensure that even if somehow Biden wins POTUS, his tax schemes won't be enacted.

    Here’s a conundrum, Linsey G. is down in the polls, & who would blame those voters for wanting to get rid of him, but after their shot in the primaries, my opinion, you have to vote for him. Dobbs just said no to voting for him. Linsey came on with Judge Janine begging for support, she could only muster up thanking him for his part in ACB’s confirmation. What do you think?

    We will all do what we have to in order to get there and that's the hitch.

    Vote for Graham, he has been a good Trump supporter, and the alternative candidate will be much worse.

    As far as the Amish neighbors doing just fine without a car, it should be mentioned that they get rides to the grocery, appointments, etc. They also have their farm serviced by semi’s bringing in & picking up calves that they raise for market, & semi’s coming in to pick up loads of pumpkins. We never had much semi activity out here in the country......before the Amish moved in. They also have a phone hut across the road from their property, you know, so they don’t have that technology ON their property.

    "It" meaning compulsion? Utter nonsense.

    Anyone who has a power boat will understand you got to have cheap access to fuels.

    Get rid of fuels, and you destroy much of the recreational boating, hunting fishing, RVing industry.

    How else are you yourself going to stop other people from not buying electric cars? What was the name you had for them?

    Yeah, they are good carpenters but they have to have lumber delivered. I didn't know about their phone deals. They are west of here about an hour near famous Indiana state park Turkey Run. They used to pass daily through downtown Indianapolis on Greyhound Bus. They helped Ken Ham a great deal building Noah's Ark because they knew how to handle huge beams. They were from Pennsylvania mostly building the largest timber structure in the world in Kentucky.

    However, everyone really depends on cars and trucks and buses and gasoline and coal and natural gas. Even those who don't have ownership of those things.

    I am sure you are making some sort of point, but it escapes me. I would allow the market to dictate the choice of electric or non-electric. The Soviet Union gave us a 70 year long example of the misery that comes from top down economics. The choice of lots of people, informed and free, is usually correct, and always self correcting.
