After I was shot, I had to relearn how to talk one word at a time.

Today, I still struggle to speak but I have not lost my voice"and I'm using it to urge all Americans to vote for @KamalaHarris and @Tim_Walz tomorrow.

Mr. I Alone Can Fix It is a fool. I pray to God that after this election is over the malignant narcissist who has been trying to destroy this country will be given the rebuke by the American people he so richly deserves. Time will tell.

Beat of luck to American democracy surviving 4 years of Trump.

It will not. Don't take it from me, take it from John Mitnick, a former Trump appointee:


A thread addressed to my fellow conservatives who are planning to vote, or considering voting, for Trump. 1/13

I was a senior, Senate-confirmed appointee in the Trump administration. I saw it from the inside. It was a chaotic disaster. I am also a lifelong conservative, a former Republican nominee for Congress, and a former White House Counsel. 2/13

Trump is reckless, angry, vengeful, and narcissistic, and he has no respect for the Constitution or the rule of law. 3/13

He is not a conservative; rather, he is a would-be autocrat and fascist motivated exclusively by his personal self-interest. If you think he cares about you or your family, I assure you that he does not. He cares only about himself. 4/13

So why did the country not go completely off the rails last time? Because there were just enough senior officials who served as "guardrails." I assure you that there will be no "guardrails" in another Trump administration. 5/13

If Trump is re-elected, senior administration positions will be filled entirely by blindly ambitious or unqualified radicals and grifters who pass a test of personal loyalty to Trump. 6/13

There will be no "adults in the room" who stand up for the Constitution and our cherished American democratic institutions. 7/13

Perhaps you recognize Trump's many serious flaws, but you think you will benefit from some of his "policies" while escaping the effects of the chaos and lawlessness. To that I say the following: 8/13

1. Although Trump will tend to follow Project 2025 (a problem in itself), you can't trust him to implement any particular policy. Trump has no political principles. He will reverse any position any time if it suits his personal interest. Surely you've already noticed that. 9/13

2. You won't escape the disastrous effects of his policies (e.g., tariffs) on the economy, global instability and damage to national security resulting from his admiration for foreign dictators, or the chaos, lawlessness, and persecution that he promises. No one will. 10/13

But what about Kamala, you ask--if she's elected, won't the Democrats run amok implementing their dream list of leftist policies? No, they won't be able to do that. Please read this article, particularly "The Harris Risk" portion: 11/13

A Message for Haley Voters Still on the Fence
Understand, clearly, what Trump will do, what he could do, and also what Harris won't be able to do.

I disagree with Kamala Harris on many issues, but she will respect our constitutional system and the rule of law, and she will support our international alliances and allies. She has also pledged to appoint a Republican to her Cabinet. 12/13

I respectfully urge you to join me and many other conservatives and Republicans in voting for Kamala Harris. It's time to close the book on Trump and rebuild a truly conservative party based on respect for the Constitution, the rule of law, and each other.

Hey Rcade ... you might wanna check the Wisconsin early voting data ;D
#65 | Posted by Bluewaffles

Here's what I found on a quick search:

WISCONSIN - EARLY VOTING RESULTS
includes mail-in (40%) & early in person (60%)

" Democrat: 455,167
" Republican: 334,682
Other: 548,878

x.com

Early voting turnout stats show:
MI 47%Dem - 42%Rep - 11% other
WI 41% Dem - 35% Rep - 24% other
PA 58% Dem - 32% Rep - 10% other

So, if this is accurate it shows some solid data on Rep. crossover and independents breaking for Harris.
