    Two polls this week say that Trump and Biden are tied in Texas, so there is that.

    Trump likely wins Texas, but the Trump Campaign may have to burn money in Texas, that is desperately needed elsewhere (Florida, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Wisconsin).

    If Trump does not spend the money and loses Texas, there might be a blue mini-wave in Texas.

    If Trump loses Texas it's a blue tsunami. I don't know enough about Texas races but Trump losing that state is going to be a major drag on the Texas GOP.

    Supposedly, the state party believes they have a chance at taking the Texas House...would be huge as they'd then have a say in redrawing congressional lines in 2021.

    Common sense prevails. But, seems like Barr succeeded in delaying bad news long enough to get past the election.

    Forgot about this thread and thought it was new and opened it. Then I saw this:


    Know what? My reaction to this thread today was completely the opposite than it was four years ago. I wasn’t shocked at all to see what I thought was a new development. That’s how Trump has affected me and the country. A blatant abuse of power by Trump is the norm now.

    From what I gather, people can call him a rapist without getting sued in NY (since they consider digital penetrationa as rape), but it's slander to claim/assert that a jury convicted him of rape like what Stephanopolis did.

    Trump Libel Cheetsheet

    Rapist = Free
    Sexual Abuser = Free
    Convicted Rapist = 15 million dollars
    Convicted Sexual Abuser = $$$
