Hopefully rationality will prevail in the end.
Foxy,
It's starting to look that way !

It would be even better if it prevailed right from the start, Indyvidual !

Dear mhaze,

.

Thanks for that list of cheating in national elections. I notice it’s a fairly short list of cheating committed exclusively by the Democrats – even though it goes back 64 years to JFK in 1960.

I guess that compiling a similar catalogue of cheating committed by the Republicans during the same period would be another matter – particularly since Trump has come on board.

That reminds me that in commenting on my reference to “the hate and anger that has been stirred up by Trump”, you note : “the hate that divides that nation didn't originate with Trump”.

I was not suggesting that it did, mhaze. By “stirred up” I didn’t mean that he lit the fire, but that he fanned the flames – whereas one might normally expect any reasonable person, let alone a would-be president of the United States, to at least appease them if not extinguish the fire completely.

Trump is playing with fire, mhaze, and I’m afraid that does not augur well for his future presidency if ever he is elected.

Republicans called it election 'cheating' in 2020. Now they’re doing it in Washington :

According to Wikipedia - "It's since been described
as a loaded phrase". We're told that - "Multiple
scholars, journalists, and commentators have called
the slogan [MAGA} racist, regarding it as dog-whistle politics
and coded language".

I wonder if it was racist when Bill Clinton used it.
I wonder if it was racist when Hilary said it.

Well obviously not because....well just because.

This is what passes for logical and educated thinking in certain circles.

More on Trump as Hitler.....
The Media and Democrats (but I repeat myself!) have been calling Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden a Nazi rally because the Nazis also had a rally there in 1939. Somehow they managed to forget that Bill Clinton had a rally there also. And they managed to forget that Hilary had a rally there also. And they managed to forget that the Obamessiah had a rally there as well.

(you don't have to have selective memory to be anti-Trump....but it helps.)

As to it being a Nazi rally, guest speakers included a Jew, an African-American, an Asian and a Mexican. And we can all remember how Hitler was fond of having Jewish, Asian and black speakers at his rallies.

Just to add a degree of hilarity to the whole sorry saga of Trump as Hitler, this hits the spot...http://tiny.cc/axiszz (wait for the final word from Hitler)

"Donald Trump" does not exist. He's a character and a
symbol who's viewed as being much more than a mortal
by his MAGA cultists.

In that role Trump is permission for revenge, craven
power, and permission for them to engage in the worst
human behaviour, Trump imagines himself in those terms.
He's a professional "fighter", a type of god and messiah,
a "billionaire" and "titan" of business, a "genius" who
is never wrong and has amazing genes. An "Action Hero",
"Movie Star", a virile and potent conqueror and seducer
of women and an idol for men.

A reality TV star and now a warlord and aspiring dictator
who is the only person who can "save America".

Donald Trump views American politics and his role as a TV
program where he is the star, casting agent and producer.
