  1. Voted today in TX and the Biden voters were out in HORDES … โœŠ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ It’s going to be a BLUE TSUNAMI!!!

    1. @BTS Dance Studio ok …..the wall well get done, lower taxes, vaccine for all , jobs jobs for all , 401k up more, stock market up more, better deals with the reat of the world, OUT of the mid-east ……got to go and lay down, WITH BIDEN SAME AS HE AS DONE IN 47 YEARS NOTHING…………..

    2. โ€‹@IRONS He aint president.. More beloved twin brother RIP Randy/5/26 get on ACA because Of Biden and valiantly fought Diabetes. Don’t buy in to the 47 BS. Thank You President Obama/Biden. We got jobs and we got Diabetic family so don’t let Trump BS You. God Bless CJ.

  2. Seniors donโ€™t want to lose their Medicare and Medicaid either. They will lose it Trump gets re-elected. When you continue to go against what the majority wants it will cost you in the end.

    1. I called the SS office…..they said no matter who wins NO ONE will lose SS or Medicare. They said it was just a scare tactic.

    2. Seniors on fixed income will be on the street if Biden wins.
      Raising taxes and the minimum wage will cause runaway inflation and their standard of living will drop again. They’ll have to decide what to eliminate between rent, food, heat or prescription drugs.
      Vote Joe and get ready to go…to the homeless camp.

    1. @David Gainey actually the improved economy was because of Obama, not trump.

      and as for what Biden done for the American people, here’s a list:

      led a review in 2014 of federal employment and training programs that reach more than 21 million people per year, retooling $1.5 billion in grants to align with job-driven training best practices

      Expanding Access to Healthcare

      helped pass Obamacare (Affordable Care Act), guaranteeing health coverage for Americans with pre-existing conditions and 20 million who were previously uninsured

      Stopping Far-Right Judges

      as ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, blocked Jeff Sessions from becoming a federal judge in 1986
      blocked the nomination of Robert Bork, who wanted to roll back advances in civil rights, to the Supreme Court in 1987

    2. @RougeDragon whiteFlame Why did Biden say his voters don’t deserve to know his stance on packing the court?

    3. @Subremedy* S because he would rather have the media focus on what happening right now instead of his answer.

    1. @Doug Eisenberg I find most Democrats are patriotic Americans, theyโ€™ve just been tricked into hating trump for one reason or another. Some of the ones here, well…

    2. @Andria Marie I’m Canadian and I know that its 100, two for each state and thats how the Reps won the senate with only 34% of the vote compared to 64% for the Dems. Example , North Dakota cancels out California or half a million cancels out 38 million. this has to change.

  3. โ€œDonโ€™t ever use the word smart with me.โ€ -Trump.

    I donโ€™t think that will be a problem.

    1. @Braveheart yes i have BUT not every time i talk , we know joe is sick and if ( BIG IF ) he wins the far left will take him out and harris will be leader …. god help us and this great country……….

    1. I hope all you Dems vote early and by mail.ย 
      There’s a seventeen percent chance it will be lost.
      Try mailing yourself $100 see if it gets there.

    2. You’re a warmonger then Joe Biden supported going to war with? Serbia/ Iraq Afghanistan/ Libya Syria…. President Trump hasn’t got us into any wars the idiots that you believe said that we were going to be dropping nuclear bombs on North Korea? Didn’t happen you believe the mainstream media that’s why you’re ill-informed

  4. Polls might be encouraging, but it doesn’t mean anything unless you vote! Vote now by mail or go in person and make it count!!! If you need a refresher, there are three branches of government, what every voter should know: Executive (POTUS & VP), Legislative (Congress = Senate, House) and Judicial (Supreme Court). The current POTUS tRump wants to turn all of it red, but we can turn it around and GO BLUE. Do That. VOTE in person or by mail-in for what is best. Return us to decency and democracy. Trump is a liar who cares for no one but himself. Let us end that!

  5. Judgement Day is coming Nov VOTE VOTE VOTE He will be Voted out of office we have hordes and hordes of Biden voters that have already voted he cant stop

    1. @Brian Alford ok biden voted to lock up young blacks for smoking weed for years .. like 10 years so wrong, then he vote to keep blacks and whites in separated in schools, you ain’t black if you voting for trump…..sorry ITS ALL RACIST

    1. Trump doesn’t have to cheat can’t you see Joe is losing badly. Nobody attends his rallies. The hatred of the left has been exposed. Silent good people will come out and do the right thing

  6. Polls are worthless. Look at the sample sizes. No way that few people can accurately represent millions of voters.

    1. Polls are spectacularly predictive and correct 99% of the time. You should study how they work – weighting, sampling, methodolgies, margin of error, etc.
      CNN’s poll of polls gave CLinton a slim 4% lead on election eve. The margin of error was 3.5%. She won the popular vote by 2% (3,000,000 votes). The polls work just fine.

    2. @Lars Jones Sure, I totally agree with you, but if it wasn’t a multitude of different subsets by an abundance of polling/pollster operatives, you wouldn’t be able to say that so assertively.

    3. @Ready Now&Forever RIght, the poll of polls is like five-thirty-eight’s poll averaging but they use different metrics. I think it’s amazing how, with weighting etc., sampling 1,000 people can tell you a lot about 1,000,000. Statistical anylsis has always facinated me… the magic of biomial distribution ona spreadsheet is brilliant

    1. @dale gribble
      Some states possible. But even still.
      You have to register.
      When the votes are counted the registered voters have to add up to the returned ballots. Or be less than.
      You canโ€™t have 11 million registrations and then get back 20 million votes.
      Or ballots.
      Itโ€™s harder than it seems, but doable in states where the machines are connected to the internet.
      You know just last week in an interview with one of Floridaโ€™s top supervisors of elections employee,
      She said in 2016 they knew the machines were hacked but before they could check the hard drives Rick Scott had the machines pulled and the hard drives ripped out.
      She said they still are unsure of who won in Florida.
      So yes it is possible. JB doesnโ€™t need Florida to win. It would be nice but itโ€™s not necessary.
      Keep up the good work warning people for sure.

    1. @Sherry Gotto Biden rallies get more Trump hecklers than Biden can pull supporters. It’s too funny how Mainstream media ignores this fact and claims Biden is leading in the polls.

  7. If you havenโ€™t voted yet, PLEASE VOTE. DO NOT TRUST THE POLLS. VOTE FOR BIDEN-HARRIS. LETS GET RID OF THE MENACE tRump. Stay safe and stay and stay well.

    1. @Richard Schneider you know what’s really funny, is you’re full of ๐Ÿ’ฉ. Biden is far from being a socialist…I wish he was more of a socialist. He’s more right than Eisenhower you twit!

    1. @MrRickostby “terminate” and “gut” are 2 different things. Terminate is whole thing thrown out, to gut it is taking a portion out of it. Trump WILL gut it, to the point it will hurt a majority of Americans. ITS NOT A LIE

  8. Hmmm. Could it be that the American people want affordable healthcare and don’t want a president who watches TV all day and sends out nasty, bullying, racist tweets to fellow American citizens day and night from the White House?

  9. Vote Early in packs, stay in long lines, proud of people in Georgia, today Texas will face long lines today! Gear up and stay in line.

  10. “A lot of seniors” are realizing that it’s trump’s/republicans’ fever dream to get rid of Social Security. “A lot of seniors” couldn’t survive and would be homeless without it.

    1. people ; have we all forget how they make the ๐Ÿ‘ฎ,๐Ÿ‘ฎ๐Ÿ‘ฎ get down on their knee , before those BLM mob’s,, the democrat are planning to take your right to own a gun as well, if democrat win , Harris, she will put Americans on their knee , defend ๐Ÿ‘ฎ๐Ÿ‘ฎ ๐Ÿ‘ฎ and take your right away..๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ˜ฅ ,our freedom is dependent on this election.๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘.
