The last October surprise was when FBI director James Comey accused Hillary of using an unsecured phone for getting emails? It turned out to be a lie, but it did help Donald get elected.

When our FBI and attorney general turn a blind eye to traitorous

activities, you can count on more October surprises. Since Nixon, I think the GOP have all used an October surprise?

It is looking more and more obvious that the ultra rich want to use all of the resources, that includes humans to make their lives more comfortable, while the planet overheats. The thug dictators will probably take all their wealth. Either we all unite and fight for a piece of the pie, or we will all starve or die slowly of disease. As long as Biden is making money for the autocrats, we have a chance of saving democracy, slim at best!

Bob in my uninformed opinion Hillary lost the election in swing states and the electoral count, not the popular vote, and not because of Comey and even Russia, but because the rust belt remembered her husband lost jobs when he signed NAFTA and GATT and the factories moved to Mexico and Asia.

That too. It was a bad combination. Plus her campaign really stank. She was a good politician and would have been a good president. But she just didn't have the 'populist touch".

No she didn't Linda, she came across as insincere and cold, but in fact she was a typical politician, self serving she had great ambition when she married Bill,and like a politician tried to be all things to all people.

I remember her response to being tagged as cold.,was to try and soften her image in a TV spectacle.

As a president she would have served the masters who funded her and the Democratic party.

There is a reason that so many Representatives and Senators are lawyers, that so many lawyers are found in politics.

The reason is that lawyers, per se, and their are exceptions have no moral center or principles.

A defense lawyer this year, a prosecutor the next.

The point is, Trump and the FBI colluded, it MAY not have worked as well as they wanted it to though. Obama could have had single payer and Clinton could have not signed NAFTA and GATT. That is why I'm not a big fan of either of those two, or the last 11 presidents. Funny how overpopulation gets blamed on the greenies though.

The FBI is "conservative", by that I mean hard right, always has been. It is dedicated to investigating the left, be they liberal, progressive, civil rights, even anti fascists, that has been the culture of the FBI, that is how agents perceive themselves The FBI of today is the same FBI that wiretapped and harassed MLK Jr.

I have never heard of overpopulation being blamed on anything, especially the Greenies, but I know the Greenies have given us the likes of Kristen Sinema, Jill Stein, and are responsible for the election of George W Bush and Donald J Trump, by siphoning popular votes away from the Democrats in vital swing states, and are set to do it again. they might as well be a branch of the fascist party, called Republican.

I am not happy with Joe Biden, but I know what is in store if Trump wins, so once again I will crawl over broken glass to vote against Trump by voting for Biden.
