I think a few polls had them tied in Iowa at one point but few expect Biden to win, Trump's simply bribed farmers with tens of billions of dollars.

You're usually an irrational snide drama queen but it seems to be getting worse.

See that,,,,,,bitter, cranky leftist

headline form the Guardian

Trump lead in Iowa poll rattles Democrats


3 days ago US NEWS and World Report JOE BIDEN LEFT IOWA IN February humiliated. He returned Friday in triumph, not only as a Democratic nominee leading in national polls but as a candidate who is now competitive in a state President Donald Trump won handily in 2016. Iowa appeared to be a long-shot for Biden until recently, when polling began to show a dead heat. Some polling has even shown Biden slightly ahead.

A Nevada judge has rejected a lawsuit by President Trump's reelection campaign and state Republican officials seeking to halt mail-in ballot counting in Clark County.

The county, home to Las Vegas, is by far the state's most populous. About 70% of Nevada's voters live in the county, which is "heavily Democratic,"


funny who hasn't commented on theses activities why is that Jim, Scott ,Detbuch ...

Wayne, you post a snippet of a story that you think supports your narrative....but you completely ignore "the big picture" do you read the stories or just cut and paste the headlines?

Hundreds of lawsuits have already been filed by Democrats, Republicans over the 2020 US election

Voting lawsuits pile up across US as election approaches

But state supported farms, where the state decides what you should grow or not is obviously capitalism

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

And now farmers are increasingly dependent on Government assistance to feed their families. Their decisions on crops are based not on a free market but on the whim of politically motivated tariff policies.

And John supports this because it's not "progressive."

Actually, the tariffs are a defense of a free market. Trade with China was not a free market. It was a one way rip off in favor of China. It was depression of the free market in this country as we became dependent on state sponsored cheap goods from a country whose policies, along with the foolish cooperation of corporations in this country, was draining us of competitive manufacturing. It was a model for economic suicide. The Founders would have approved of the tariffs.

And if Trump loses, the tariffs will be lifted, China will be back on track to destroying us economically, militarily, and politically. If he wins, China loses and will have to come to some more equitable terms or suffer economic collapse and overthrow of the Communist Party.
