God, I hope so, Martin. Words fail at this point. We're all stupefied, baffled. And again, the words don't exist for what I feel at this point. It's completely galling and stunning and almost impossible to believe. What has happened to people, to this country? I'm just so glad I have an EU passport.

I believe there is a very real possibility that women and young people will be the secret vote that changes everything. A person can dream!

I feel exactly the same way! Certain that what we see in the polls can't possibly be right because it doesn't add up to what I'd like to believe about my fellow Americans. Hopeful that people are saying out loud what they want their tribe to hear while silently voting the opposite. Next Tuesday can't come soon enough.

I really don't think it's the news contriving the situation. I really thinks it's very close and they're just reporting the drama. Most people who work in news try to be objective. It's corporate execs who manipulate things, like Bezos preventing WAPO from endorsing Harris. To be honest, I fear the worst. Did you see Thom Hartmann's column about thinking he might go to prison if Trump is reelected?

I applaud all the women who will be voting for Harris against their partner's wishes. There is a darker outcome that could occur. When Trump loses, and he will, there could be some angry men who suspect their wives/girlfriends voted for Harris. I wrote an article about this people might want to be aware of.
