I predict that Trumpy will declare victory early. He will NOT concede when he loses and he will file multiple lawsuits to try to throw the elections into chaos and prevent us knowing who won for weeks.

Harris will win the popular vote and the electoral college.

I do not think we will know who won by 11pm. Or for several days or even weeks.

I predict Maga violence at several locations (Pennsylvania might get some revenge and retribution) and more Trump hateful posts and lies and calls for fighting and "TAKING BACK OUR COUNTRY" and a lot of confederate flags.

I predict more of the same ---- from Trumpy and his hateful supporters. Because they don't give a ---- how they win or even what it means if they did. Only that they do win so they can own the libs and get some of that sweet sweet revenge and retribution.

We are at a Turning Point in American history.

Choose carefully America!

"I do not think we will know who won by 11pm. Or for several days or even weeks."

And should this occur it will make Beverly very very happy!!

I hope it drags on for months.

the media needs it that close.

What is this all powerful "media" you keep referring to?

Is it books magazines and newspapers?

Is it television, movies, video games, music, cell phones, various kinds of software, and the Internet?

Is it blogs, wikis, online social networking, virtual worlds, and other social media platforms?

There are all kinds of media now.

Which media is controlling the narrative?

Or is it some mysterious AI algorithms being used on us by billionaires like Elon or foreign hostile powers?

This is a pretty obtuse question.

It is pretty obtuse to claim the "media" is controlling the narrative.

You need to be more specific these days as the word "media" applies to so many things. And I am pretty sure they are not all on the same page. I have sampled quite a few.

Though making money is still a primary motivator to be sure for pretty much all of them.

Beverly knows exactly what I am talking about. As he tried to clarify his statement a little.

Some do want a horse race. Definitely. Others just report what they believe s
are are the facts. Others take the facts and distort them to fit a narrative.

It really depends on which bubble you prefer to live in.

And AI algorithms will help you stay there.

The quote from Danforth, "Everyone telling you it's a horse race has a vested interest in you believing it's a horse race" was spot on.

And yes Danforth was exactly correct.

But he didn't point to some amorphous "media". (Which would include everyone we both listed).

At least he narrowed it down some. His statement while exactly correct still doesn't narrow it down enough.

He pointed at those who have a "vested interest".

Now. If we really wanted ... We could be more specific.

Who are they?

I can start ...

Fox News
&
MSNBC
&
CNN

They all have vested interests in making it a horse race.

And now we have all these pollsters. Some who are legit and some who are actively trying to skew the poll numbers.

But they are not The Media. They are but a small part of the media. Then there is this new tactic of "online betting". Where billionaires can make you think one candidate is more favored than the other.

Again. It all depends on which bubble you prefer to live in these days.

"Trump if the election honest."

"If Jesus was to come down and count the votes" there would be no voter suppression or gerrymandering or fake electors or purges or anything like an electoral college.

Just everyones vote.

And Trumpy would lose that vote by a landslide.
