11. Sorry My Tin Foil Hat Is On Pretty Tight Today.....

You said no manifesto discovered yet. The keyword in my opinion is yet. We are still really at the beginning of the events that unfolded today. We still have two weeks before the midterms. Who knows what will unfold in the next two weeks that can escalate this situation.

All I know is that Trump and the Repugs are desperate to hang on to power. I wouldn't put anything beneath them to do to keep power.

I see that somebody posted in this thread that there is no way the Midterms can be stopped. How many things have we said would never happen here in this country - have happened since Trump took office.

I'm hoping that the Midterms come off as we all expect and that the Blue Wave lets the Dems take back the House and Senate. But in the last two years I come to expect the unexpected. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the Midterms come off as we expect.
