The blinders have slowly fallen from the eyes of Mrs. Catnipman, who has been one of those 3rd generation Irish Catholic Democrats believing in classic liberalism all her life.
I quietly laugh my ass off at her newly found outrage of the utterly corrupt and 100% biased media, the utter corruption of Obama’s DoJ and FBI, Hillary’s massive corruption, lying and stealing, and the totally self-serving frauds 99.9% of the GOP are. She actually supported Hillary against Obama during their primary, but that’s been part of her education too: basically all politicians are lying pieces of shit.
BTW, she doesn’t buy for one second all of the supposedly anti-woman crap the enemedia have been blasting Trump with: she’s a grownup and knows that locker-room talk means zip when weighed against the guaranteed destruction of our republic if Hillary is elected.
In Upstate South Carolina you would not know that this is an election year. Few signs. Few Stickers. No media ads except on NC TV. SC is in the Trump column despite no overt party support.
Saw my first Hildabeast sign today. Only took 2 years.
Western PA.
td, thanks for this thread!
As you know, I posted the following yesterday. I think it’s appropriate for this thread as well:
Yup, IMO there are a Tremendous number of closet Trump voters out there. I have heard people say that they havent decided yet, or that they dont like either candidate. Again, in my opinion a lot of these people are going to vote for DJT and may not admit it even after the election. They dont want to take abuse from their liberal friends and dont want to have their cars, and/or property damaged by liberals so they have no signage. Here in the Northeast, I see almost zero bumper stickers, or lawn signs for either candidate. As I stated, I know why there are none for DJT. That there are none for Hilliary tells me there is no enthusiasm for her. In fact, I see more Obama/Biden stickers left over from 2012 than anything else. Keep the faith everyone and dont believe the polls!!
I had a hay delivery yesterday. 2 trucks & 2 trailers were here-—1056 bales total at about 100 # each ——I was the 3rd person to get hay out of 5 of us in close proximity. All one trip.
Both the drivers were adamant that they want Trump.
These are hard working men in the agricultural world. The drought for 4 years has hurt us all, but these guys hunt & belong to a large gun club. We all live rural and we know it can take 20 minutes or more for a deputy to show up——even IF we can call one. We all have guns & we know how to use them. No Shrillary for any of the 6 of us who were here. 2 neighbors had never seen the large Roadrunner Squeeze work before & they were entranced by the skill of the operator—moving bales from the ruck bed to my pallets.

Norwalk, CT
36.4% registered Democrat
19.3% registered Republican
Has voted overwhelmingly Democrat since the Reagan years.
Virtually no presidential yard signs or bumper stickers spotted in recent travels. Plenty of signs for local races. Whatever their choice, people are playing it close to the vest.
3 weeks till election and it is like pulling a hen’s tooth trying to find ONE HILLARY CLINTON SIGN in an SUBURBAN AREA!
“What is your Anecdotal evidence?”
I’ve been polled three times and have said I was voting for hillary on all of them.
I’m hoping and praying that there is a Nixonesque “Silent Majority” that is going to rise up and put Trump over the top, that Bernie voters will switch or stay home, that Trump can get 15% of the black vote, that blue collar union Democrats will go Trump, that the black turnout will be nowhere near what it was for Obama, that the Millennials will be disillusioned or uninterested and stay home.
But what I fear is that all the anecdotal evidence we see is not necessarily anecdotal, that the majority of real people we encounter will support Trump over Hillary, but that the rats can still win by turning out the votes of people we don’t see. I don’t mean pure fraud, dead people, or illegals. I fear the Democrat machine that is this very day collecting ballots in the inner city, the old folks homes, the union workplaces and banking those votes now. I fear the machine that goes door to door to shut-ins and helps them fill out their ballot and collects it for them all this month. I fear the machine that works the college campuses collecting votes from the brainwashed and banking them early. If this were an election of who shows up election day and votes Trump wins easily, but it is not. It is important that Trump backers drag friends to the polls, help the shut-ins they know vote trump before the rat machine gets to them. Trump people need to go to the nursing home to help their relatives vote and while theye are there ask around to see who else needs help voting for trump. We need to let our college age kids know that not voting for Trump is not an option if they want help from mom and dad. We need to be clear and vocal to everyone we know that we are voting for Trump and that is OK for anyone to do that despite the shaming from the media. It is not a fair fight but it can be won.
Tuesday, at 2 PM, 30,000 showed up to see Trump in Panama City Beach, Florida. Bay County has a slight Republican advantage but the surrounding counties have Democrat majority registrations. That tells me that NW Florida will continue to support Donald Trump!
That would be:
Illegitimus non carborundum est.
I have seen exactly one Hillary bumper sticker, no yard signs.
I have seen at least half a dozen Trump stickers on cars (the small-ish oval ones) and three yard signs.
Nowhere near the amount of signs and stickers of the last election.
Hispanic customers tell me they will NEVER vote for Hillary. One gentleman of Mexican decent went on for several minutes about how illegals are costing him money because they do jobs cheaper and how we have to send each and every illegal back and how Trump has it right with his wall.
His movement may be real but honestly, I don’t think it is enough to win. I have been lukewarm from the beginning for Trump. I vacillate between rabid support and oh my God that was stupid of him. There is an ad here in central Ohio that is a killer and I have to tell you, it makes me shudder because I agree with it. I have a tough time excusing a man who mocks and makes fun of a handicapped person. When Trump did that, I think it was disgraceful, proved nothing except his stupidity, showed his character and lack of judgement and I think will be the nail in his coffin. I will vote for Trump, because of Hillary and I have never voted for a Democrat in my life and never will. But there are plenty of swing voters who will be swayed.
Just talked to a guy that works for Southern Co. at the Steam Power plant. Union guys. Dem’s war on coal is killing them. Don’t know if they will be able to survive. They have recently(last 3 years) spent huge money on a natural gas pipeline to the plant.
Mentioned my former stepson works, or worked and the Jim Walter(coal) mine in Brookwood. My guy said that “yea, there’s almost no one still there and they don’t see how they are going to keep the mine open. Union mine.
Anyway. My point is that Trump is going to be getting a large part of the Union vote that has always been a big Dem bloc.
I have three sons of voting age who have never voted before.
Two of them are definitely voting Trump. The third doesn’t like either one and will maybe vote third party but will definitely not vote for Hillary.
(1) Met a 30 year old Hispanic man who owns his own plumbing business - voting for Trump, thinks Hillary is the biggest liar he has ever known.
(2) Twenty three year old Hispanic cosmetologist, putting herself through college - voting for Trump, former Bernie supporter, absolutely hated Hillary, thought Hillary stole the nomination from Bernie.
(3) Twenty eight year old white male, sales rep for an agriculture company - voting for Trump. First time voter, thinks his future is over if Hillary wins the election.
(4) Met just yesterday a twenty five year old white real estate agent, she and her fiancé are both strong Trump supporters. Actually is making plans to leave California but may decide to stay if Trump wins, (her family is in town).
All of these young people were employed, smart and were all paying very close attention to the issues and the election, they all gave me hope. I was especially pleased with the Hispanic guy. He said that his family were going for Hillary and are shocked at his decision to support Trump, but he didn't care what they thought. His support was solid and had actually donated to Trump's campaign.
where did all Bernie Sanders people go? they sure as heck arent showing up for Hillary. i believe Trump will get 80% of them. the rest will stay home and get high.
