nah was baba vanga i found it eventually, she died in like 1999 which is probly why its been ages since id heared about her.
aint saying i belive it, just strange timing all this.Another prediction attributed to her is that the 44th President of the United States would be the country's last Commander-in-chief.[28][29][30][31] It has also been claimed that Vanga correctly predicted the 44th President would be African-American.[32] Vanga's supporters also claimed that she predicted the 45th president will be with a "messianic personality", who will be faced with a crisis that eventually "brings the country down"
And most of the prediction has come true in a way, Obama was the last president you had of a UNITED States of America, alot don't seem to consider trump there president any way, Obama was African american and trump is dealing with crisis's in America that are totally unprecedented, and his followers certainly follow him like he's a messianic personality...... only part of the prophecy not right so far is the collapse of america.

If the pre-cast votes are anything to go off of, voter turnout will not be an issue.
I have almost zero doubt that Biden will win the popular vote. I have almost zero doubt he will also win the electoral college when including mail-in votes and absentee ballots.
The only point of contention is if Trump is able to finagle and malign the mail-in process that enough votes get lost to toss the mail-in results "into doubt" to such a number that the in-person voters, who by the latest numbers I can recall will be predominantly republican, carry him in a scanty few counties to some ill-wrought victory.
In any normal circumstances, Trump would lose this election. Badly.

Words to live by.
Hillary was never at any point in time this far ahead, and with a lead so stable.
Biden has been 6-8 points ahead of Trump since may. And probably after the debates he'll be 7-9 points ahead. I know that this is weird because of the shock and horror of 2016 and the polls, but generally speaking, a 6-8 point lead is a commanding one in a normal circumstance. But yeah, the orange cancer could win. It's very unlikely, but he could eke out an electoral college win .

Biden smashes fundraising records during chaotic debate
The campaign raised nearly $4 million in an hour -- and won 60,000 new donors.
ActBlue has processed over $65,000,000 since the beginning of the debate last night. 2nd best 24 hour period behind the 24 hours after RBGs death. However that time saw a lot more donations go to Senate candidates.
Fact: if you were to subtract all '16 votes from Westmoreland Co. (PA), Macomb (MI) and Waukesha (WI), Hillary Clinton would be president today.
This is some of the most valuable real estate on the political map, and Biden is hitting it in a way Clinton didn't.
Joe Biden greets the largest crowd he has likely seen since March as he exits the train station in Greensburg, Pennsylvania

He predicted something like... ‘an old enemy will rise again, joining new found threats, into a storm of hellfire. Forces will unite to bring down the land of virtue.’ We then take that and try to contextualize it for our times... because we as a whole, humanity are massive narcissist. The odds of the world ending during your life time, is only relatively greater than the previous generation, and only due to entropy... not our existence.

I bet they're the people who are like "Soy de España e Italia!" while they sit around bitching about their "pelo malo" while trying to find an equally racist Rubia that will for whatever reason have them so they can "mejorar la raza" and live their racist fantasties through their child.
I... Have seen those specimens here. And it's more baffling since they are not snow white, blue/green eyes and light colored hair. Also, its stupid as fuck, since 99% of Latinos are either native americans, african americans or mestizo. There're almost no 100% genetically european latino in Chile, Perú, Colombia, etc. Maybe there are more in Argentina and Urugay though.

Oh God I know... even like the clearly... clearly black Latinos... I remember a guy telling me he's white... and he was Dominican... and definitely not white. My grandfather is Rican and... while he looks quite white...he's not white... This is also a pretty big problem with Cubans... probably makes it easier for them to vote for Trump.
the only 100% genetically European Latinos are those with last names like "Rozitchner" and "Holmberg" or "Krause" because their Nazi parents fled to Argentina...
Senate races are arguably even more important.
If Trump wins the Presidency and keeps a GOP Senate, he can continue his crusade to stack the court with GOP judges.
If Trump wins the Presidency and we get a Democrat Senate, we can have actual checks on his ability to do horrifying things, up to and including impeachment and removal for his election ratfuckery. Pence could be impeached and removed as well, as having benefited from said ratfuckery. Then Pelosi is President, and Democrats control House/Senate/White House. That would require some cooperation from the GOP, which isn't terribly likely, but in early 2021 with almost two years to go til the midterms and zero chance of their future electoral chances tied to Trump they might be more willing to get rid of him for making them all look bad.
If Biden wins the Presidency and the GOP keeps the Senate, any of the legislation that Democrats want is DOA, thanks to McConnell. Biden can do limited things via Executive Orders, but thanks to Trump's ratfuckery of the courts, they aren't likely to hold up for long.
Of course, the ideal is that Biden wins the Presidency and the Democrats flip the Senate, in which case we can start to undo all the utter bullshit of the last 4 years and rebuild the country as something resembling a functioning democracy.
