But now is the age of Modern Monetary Theory - governments in the face of covid-19 have discovered they DON'T have to balance the budget, but can give money to the people!
@GB I didn't miss it, I didn't see it. As I said, the quote surely mistook cases for deaths. There are currently 120,000 cases per day in USA and 200,000 is not beyond the realm of possibility,despite claims of 'control'. In Australia there are about 20/day - adjust that per capita, then explain the meaning of 'control'
@acorn pushing buttons is just pushing buttons, wears out the buttons but what else? The silly chap seems to think repeating stuff controls people. He doesn't even make me angry, just sigh. As a retiree I help people with ESL, he thinks that is reprehensible? How is that defensible? How does that reflect on his intellect, I wonder?

Ah! I see the Brits use the word 'chumming'... so I suggest there is chumming activity in the postal voting - and of course that would be by DT supporters most plausibly.
Of course any attempt at fraud will be miniscule - or more likely an attempt to introduce doubt by casting berley (that may be an Aussie only word) for the only too willing doubters. You will have (perhaps) seen @Miclee attempting to do that, whilst claiming he doesn't know whether it is true, hmmm
@Profile deleted What Both Trump and Four not so tall Cheeses deleted? My cup runneth over. But the thought of you enjoying my lovely runny brie sours the pleasant vision. I must look out for Chilli brie, ripe and runny and fiery hot I hope, and nothing ot a cholesterol threat .. well ...
@mic add the word 'concocted' to 'quoted' - that's what I mean by preposterous. the Homer Simpson catchphrase sits well with you: "D'oh!" (/do??/). You actually the numbers are real?
@mic don't you, yourself, find the quoted numbers preposterous? Don't you question the veracity? mmm, perhaps you don't, perhaps I underestimated your (choose a noun ending in ety ity or ocy).
another issue that can inflate the voting numbers ... many early voters, alarmed by Trumps braying about late votes, have turned up in person and voted; consequently their votes will have been counted twice in the numbers published, but of course will only be counted once in the official tally, since the land of technological genius naturally has vote counting systems which reject second and subsequent votes by registered voters, one assumes ...
Well in these particular cases the Conservative biases of the bench does not come into play, and the presence of 3 Trump nominated justices is largely irrelevant. Is it an issue of federalism? Are you hoping for another Bush vs Gore?
