Marty, what signs have you ever seen to suggest Trump voters will "act up about it"?

Stop pretending this is a 2 sided issue when you know damn well it isn't.

It’s a given that if Biden loses cities will burn. They’ve been practicing all summer.

The real question is if Trump supporters will react. I think that depends on the level of contention over the vote count.

The only reaction from Trump supporters will be in self defense.  You should be safe if you live in a state with a red governor though.

Mostly. But if there are signs of obvious skullduggery I think we’ll see some protests turn violent.

So just yesterday a convoy of trucks with Trump flags tried to drive Biden's bus over to the shoulder of I-35. Biden's people had to call the Texas Rangers to get the roadblock cleared.
Do you still think it's not a two-sided issue?

Every time you tell the story, I'm sure it will get more intense. Little advice, add the word "armed" in there.

I hope the baseball team was able to rectify the issue.

That’s not true.

Do I think Trump supporters trolling the Biden campaign is as bad as executing a police officer on the street? No.

The Biden staff who want to abolish and defund the police called 911? That's the only thing I took out of that story.

Which part of what I said is false? I read the article too.
50+ thousand people rally in PA yesterday with Biden holding a 25 point lead.

There was no roadblock and they didn’t try to force the bus off the road.

Pretty much every bad thing you implied was false.

On a side note, have you thought about your new career after being a pollster didn't work out for you?

Yeah, there's always underwear modeling to fall back on.  Don't worry about me!

They slowed the bus down for sure.  And bumped part of their convoy.  The point is, it's not good or defensible behavior.  It's unsafe and threatening.  Juke and jive though! Go on and miss that point!

This is the part of the US election I'm most worried about. Because of all the upheaval this year and different voting styles, it looks unlikely a winner will be announced election night and may take a few weeks. 

I fully expect both sides to claim they have won before its officially announced but I fear that's what going to tear you guys apart. From the outside, I've not heard a lot from either about what they will improve but plenty about how [BLEEP] the other side are.

Right now, even with the polls saying Biden is in the lead, I think Trump gets a second term. US voters tend to give Presidents 2 terms now.
