Fixing to lock up long enough to go vote.
It's not a job if you love doing it.

I went this morning. Our polling location is under construction so I was afraid it would be tough… It was not bad at all. In and out in 20!
When you dig grave will you make it shallow so that I can feel the rain?

I'm about to sounds crotchety, but I hate our new polling location.  It's literally the size of a small fast food joint dining room.  We end up waiting outside for most of the time and we have too few booths open, so it takes forever.

I ended up early voting this year, in and out in under 20 minutes.  10 of that was waiting in line.  I got there right at 7 when it opened.  After I walked out at 7:20, there was zero line.  So much easier.  I waited almost 3 hours in 2020 and our polling place was much bigger then.

Our polling place changed between the 2020 general and the 2020 senate runoffs.

Our Art Director in Indiana went to vote early I guess on Friday or Sat  and the early voting line was wrapped around the building. 2hr wait (with early voting).

I’m headed out today at lunch, not that I’m excited to have to vote for one of these two but ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

Having a billionaire force himself on mine or any daughter would be a horrible thing.  There are many daughters out there that are up for the financial benefits that come afterwords and may choose to participate and call it force later as we know. Too many examples to pin point what accusation we are referring to. Some of those are very true and the victim completely innocent I’m sure. With that said, some daughters could do well by being boned by a billionaire.  Who knows?

But there are bad sides to each.  Things on both sides that go against what an individual whole heartedly believes in or doesn’t believe in strongly.  That’s the bad part of elections. Lies, deceit, intent, back alley deals are all a part of today’s presidency. Then the other side so boldly presents themselves as the righteous when the have stained hands themselves. Not too far from a Sadam Hussan (minus all of the killing that guy did) that we know of but just as crooked.  I’m a firm believer that Trump would engage in all of that as well as Kamala. More of the same in a different way. If you vote at all, most of us feel we are still losing. JMO.   No true warrior for “we the people” but I guess that all over the world and we are just more like they are now.

Dan, the comment was in reference to this https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/donald-trump-ivanka-trump-creepiest-most-unsettling-comments-a-roundup-a7353876.html

"If Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her. Isn’t that terrible? How terrible? Is that terrible?"

Idiocracy - "It has electrolytes"

Nah,  I find using this statement as a tool is similar to those people who called Biden a pedophile because he was photoed several times smelling their hair or whatever he was doing that looked like it. Weird?  Sure looks like it. Was it really what was going on?  Questionable.

Same for Trump and Ivanka comment. We all know trumps says dumb stuff. Is that what he was really trying to say, or is he just a horrible communicator that is bad at blurting out dumb things at the wrong time?  It's one of those convenient "reaches" for the other side. Easy to twist and use against them by calling them out as monsters as each side would love doing.

Both Trump and Biden are weird and we've watched enough of Kamala's quotes and snap shots of her goofy behaviors and comments to know she's right there with them.  To me, they are all kind of like Hollyweird. Maybe to play in that world, you have to be a weird person or become one. Maybe it just makes you weird. Trump seems to have always been. Perfect fit with the rest of the politicians and other actors.

I recently worked for a guy was exactly like Trump so I know the type. Same ego, same everything. Very much a power hungry egotistical narcissist to say the least. Still, I give Kamala just as much of that same credit.
