This may be a little off topic but regarding Trump slandering, I found this trailer for a mini series which shows Trump as a ruthless leader. Apparently this is considered historical events.

Here is the video segment from last night’s Trump-Hannity interview.
Seeing RED.
"The consortium, psychopaths, understand human nature and use it against us".
They know about "a part" of human nature which is as you say, but are clueless about the "higher" parts of humanity which they are ignorant of, its the unknown factor for them. As psychopaths that don't understand normal people or their values and think of us as fools, cattle, useless eaters who they can easily deceive. We see a portion of the population being fooled by the virus crap but another large group isn't and more become aware everyday and also about the level of corruption. My inspiration for saying keep faith in human nature was inspired by the huge crowds President Trump attracts at his rallies and the over all feeling I get is its very positive. Easily, there are 60 million people who have that spirit in the US, maybe more now, who see whats going on. The spirit and principles this country where founded upon has become ignited by seeing how it is on the verge of being destroyed and thats a powerful, light filled force. I take it as an inspiration. I am also encouraged by the saying which I paraphrase, that it only takes a dedicated few to change the course of civilization or history.
I see these dedicated few in our government.
Sometimes I think these times are like the story of David and Goliath. The dark controllers seem all powerful but then I remembered that in the past I was able to see at one point, that this is another illusion they have cast upon humanity. Think of the Wizard of Oz, he was a little man standing behind a curtain that projected a huge, intimidating image to fool others into accepting his power. Its appropriate as the ptb are only 2% of the population, more or less. If ever the sleeping power of humanity where to awaken they'd be toast.
One of the countries founders, not sure which one, said its good to have periods like this where so much is threatened because it forces people to reestablish their values. Another paraphrase.
It's not an easy thing for me to explain, so hopefully I've given some idea of what I'm trying to say. One thing is, to fool people their motives and true nature must be kept hidden. They're not able to pull it off any longer because they're being exposed. It's the predators mind which fears being exposed so they most be panicky at this point. Some of the mask wearers I've decided, are just hopeless.

Mail-In Ballots: What Could Go Wrong?

In a speech last week, President Trump said this about mail-in ballots for the coming election: “This will be the greatest catastrophe. One of the greatest catastrophes in the history of our country, that's how serious it is.”
Although this president is often given to exaggerations, this is not one of them. The disputes that will inevitably grow out of the widespread use of mail-in ballots could make it impossible to know who is elected president on Nov. 3 -- or even by Jan. 20, when the newly elected president is to take office. Although many assume that Trump is talking about fraud in mail-in balloting – and mail-in ballots will make fraud easier -- the real danger is extreme delay in gathering and reporting the election results. Disputes over ballot validity will descend on state and federal courts, all of it eventually reaching the Supreme Court. The 2000 fight over the Florida results was finally decided by the court on Dec. 12, 2000, and this was one dispute about one county in one state.
So the answer to the question about what could go wrong with mail-in ballots is this: plenty. Just in the recent primary election in New York, results in one race could not be reported until six weeks after the balloting as the representatives of rival candidates fought over the validity of mail-in ballots. As the Washington Post reported,
In New Jersey, as reported in the Wall Street Journal, 9.6% of ballots were not counted, because of deficiencies such as late delivery and lack of signatures. These controversies will not be settled by goodwill on both sides. They will eventually make it into the courts, and the inevitable delays in litigation may mean that the new Congress will convene on Jan. 3 without all the seats filled in both the House and Senate.
Infinitely worse will be the controversy over the presidency, as tedious ballot counts produce challenges to the validity of signatures, ballot delivery dates and whether a voter is truly a resident of the state in which the vote was cast. Several weeks ago, for example, the Wall Street Journal published an article by a voter who was once a resident of Washington state but is now a resident of Texas. A ballot was sent to his Washington home and dutifully forwarded by the post office to his Texas address. Clearly, he could easily vote in two states. How many partisans will resist this temptation? Imagine the fights that will occur over whether a particular voter is validly entitled to vote in Texas or Washington. Will the residency of every voter have to be verified?
In a tight presidential race, every ballot disqualified in every state could be significant, inducing legal fights and differing legal judgments by state and federal courts throughout the nation. If these controversies extend beyond Jan. 20, the constitutionally settled day for the presidential inauguration, there will also be controversies about who is the president. This will be extraordinarily dangerous in a world in which many nations have nuclear weapons or designs on the territory of neighboring states. This is what anyone might call an impending catastrophe.
The applicable provision of the Constitution is the 20th Amendment, adopted in 1933. This provides that the president in office on Jan. 20 of the year after a presidential election will leave office at noon on that date and the newly elected president will be inaugurated.
But what happens if -- because of reporting delays and court disputes in key states -- there is no duly elected president on Jan. 20? The 20th Amendment might seem to apply here. It says that if, on that date, a “President-elect” has not “qualified” under the Constitution’s rules for age or birthplace, Congress may provide by law “who shall then act as President until the President-elect” has qualified. But because the amendment applies only to the case where there is a known president-elect (just not one who has qualified), it would not apply when no candidate has a settled Electoral College majority by Jan. 20. Accordingly, Congress will not have the authority to elect a temporary president as contemplated by the 20th Amendment.
Because the 20th Amendment specifies that the current president must leave office at noon on Jan. 20, that could mean the United States will not have a president on that date. Here, the Presidential Succession Act of 1947 could come into effect. That act applies when the current president is unable to serve, which would include the end of President Trump’s term on Jan. 20. The act then provides that the presidency temporarily devolves on the speaker of the House, followed by the president pro tempore of the Senate, followed by the members of the Cabinet.
However, if too many races have not been settled because of mail-in ballot problems, we may not know, by that date, who is the speaker of the House or the president pro tem of the Senate. In any event, in order to assume the temporary presidency that would then be open, each of these people must resign his or her current office, including -- for the speaker of the House -- both the speakership and membership in the House.
It could be, of course, that voting in states that do not adopt widespread mail-in balloting will provide an undisputed winner in the Electoral College before Jan. 20, but if not, a widespread system of mail-in ballots in the coming election could create exactly the constitutional catastrophe Donald Trump has been predicting.
He reminds me of agent Smith in The Matrix...
