    Nobody should be handling someone else's absentee ballots. Democrats have been doing so for sometime. One more reason they love absentee ballot harvesting is they there are cities where the number of registered voters exceed the actual number of residents? Of course, Democrat election officials refuse to clean up their voting rolls of dead people and illegals (foreigners). Also, using the absentee ballot rule removes scrutiny and being required to present an ID? Why do the Democrats object to providing ID when practically, anything you do, requires you to prove your identity?

    Trump should just say that the existence of Twitter increases the likelihood that people will be using their phones while driving which puts the public as a whole at greater risk of dying in a fatal car accident. Therefore Twitter is permanently banned.

    Keep in mind the OP believes religious services, peaceful assembly, freedom of speech and pursuit of happiness all needed to end because he was scared.

    Keep in mind the Democrats priorities. Casinos are okay to open even though, there are more people in an enclosed area and dirty air circulated by the airconditioning over and over but, nail and hairdressing salons are still shutdown? Common sense would tell you that there are less people in a salon compared to casinos?

    Hmmm. More thinking out loud...

    The good thing about AMZN too, no way there's gonna be a short squeeze. Too many shares and too much volume.
    A 20% haircut takes it down to what, $1900?
    Thats easy.

    Yep... between Trump sicking Justice on them to get votes, and/or Sleepy Joe taxing them to death.... that, and keeping every PM in the world humble (as the trading gods will not allow these yoyo's to book huge yoy percentage gains, just the way it is)... AMZN may just be the ideal short play up here. In reality, they only employ 250K people too. Sounds like a lot, but for real its peanuts these days when we're getting 2.5M unemployment claims/week and Covid is looking stubborn.

    I'm sure the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi owns a big chunk, gotta look into that. Rest assured they will get out early if Trump acts.

    10% haircut (at least) at this level is almost a no-brainer. Free money.

    We run nuclear reactors with higher fail rates than instances of voter fraud in America.

    Arguing against opening up access to the ballot because there is a fraud rate greater than one in a million is absurd. Nothing would get done anywhere in the world if we operated anything based on those margins.

    Trump to sign executive order aimed at cracking down on Facebook and Twitter, vows ‘FAIRNESS!’
    President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order Thursday cracking down on online platforms such as Facebook, Google and Twitter, vowing “a Big Day for Social Media and FAIRNESS!” The move comes days after Twitter began fact-checking some of his tweets.

    The order would push the Federal Communications Commission to write rules on when and how platforms can remove content from their platform and still maintain liability protection granted them under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. The law as it stands largely exempts those publications from being held liable for much of the content on their websites.
