so wait

the media has a coordinated story about how shitty the turnout was, implying low demand

...but AOC admits there was demand and those seats were empty b/c of leftist yutes reserving the seats and not lack of demand



AOC didnt kill a damn thing because Republicans wont ever make an issue of it. They will roll over just like they always do.

Never took you for stupid by any means. You do come off as arrogant and angry. Assuming that role is not conducive to a constructive discussion.

Our POTUS is quite effective in deconstructing his opponents. His policies have been of great benefit to our country. He is brash. He is prone to hyperbole. He is a bully, but he is our bully. In this age of globalism that is welcomed by many of us.

Generational inbreeding is a real thing in Arkansas. It causes a form of retardation and is prevalent throughout the state. If you ever go there you will notice a large part of the population has that “ long distance stare” about them.

Before I answer, what exactly are you looking for here, Nancy Drew? Do I need to throw throw out some financial industry jargon so you'll have some inkling of what I do? Operational and enterprise risk management are my specialties. I work with large financial institutions and their executives. Made my way starting with Basel's Advanced Measurement Approach for Operational Risk, learning how to implement and oversee thru/beyond parallel run.

Is that sufficient or are you going to need to see my direct deposits? Letters of reference?

Registration for tickets for the event was an email harvesting project by the Trump campaign, thus there was no limit to the number of tickets offered for registration. However, there was no assigned seating, no indication to the registrant at the time of registration as to the of tickets that had been registered, but there was an indication that entry and seating would both be first-come, first-serve. which explains the people camping out a couple of days ahead of time.

Which is all to say that while the K-pop people may have inflated the demand expectations of the Trump campaign for attendance, they didn't stop anyone from obtaining a ticket, they didn't stop anyone from showing up; they didn't stop anyone from getting in. Demand for entry was what we saw. Anyhow, 6,000 people attending a rally for an incumbent President in the middle of a pandemic is a lot.

Your beef is with the campaign manager for allowing this all to happen, for not understand what was going on with the K-pop folks (this was all reported in the media prior to the event) and for spinning a successful event into a failure.

Yes? In your eyes, I guess the fact I don't own a bank that has tens of billions in assets and/or capital makes me a bank bitch. So yes. I'm a bank bitch, everyone. He got me.

The only people afraid of internet voting are Republican. Hmm. Why is that?


1. Because the DNC ballot “harvests”. This is just another avenue for fraud.

2. Even absent fraud, I prefer educated voters who don’t mind taking 30-60 minutes once a year to have their voices heard. I like that voting takes more effort than changing the channel from Oprah to Judge Judy. You know, and the DNC knows, that the more people you get to vote who are lazy, disinterested and ignorant, the more Democrats will win.

And the sad thing is that you’re proud of that fact.

Sometimes apologies aren't good enough when you show how you truly feel.

(Don't shoot the messenger)

Seems like some of those NYC and San Fran elitist attitudes rubbed off on you a little.

Well within anyone's rights to feel that way. Wouldn't begrudge. Understandable. Like I said, the rancor was uncalled for and took away from the point I tried to make, more than anything. I've always been my own worst enemy.

Everyone should be afraid of internet voting. The second it goes live is the second it’s breached and data is manipulated.

We are six pages in and not once have you said anything of value. Either tell us your fricking point or go back to reddit.

What does it take for someone to be so angry so early in the morning?


1. A Trump Rally
2. Law Enforcement not putting up with the games of the left wing mobs and shutting down their attempts at creating chaos.

I don't mind that you consider your self an independent thinker, we need more of those for sure. What I have a problem with is your ad hominem attacks right after you criticize someone for an ad hominem attack. This is what the leftist media does all the time. Also I don't think a middle of the road prez would be any good right now. The press would just bully them into submission like the did they Bush boys. Trump won't give an inch, nor should he. I really don't know why he wants the shitty arse job, but I am glad he does.

Good on you that you reg attend church.

You should probably watch that temper though, that isn't good for your health.

Is there a control against this? Because at some point, the internet voting thing will be more demanded. What's the control needed and how do we lobby for it? Legislation?

How do you measure the political intelligence of any voter? The people voting...older people, for instance. Is there some literature I can read that speaks to how informed old people are? How informed full time workers are? Part time? Retired? To go along with your argument, can you first prove to me that the average voter is informed (regardless of party)? Because that seems like a very subjective way of determining voting systems.

If opening up voting to the masses will result in something you hate, any argument against that result is a proxy vote against democratic governance.
