THOSE HUNTER BIDEN E-MAILS – In my October 15, 2020 blog posting, I told you that I would not comment on the content of documents that have not been proven to be authentic.  I choose not to publish my opinion based on “if true” information.

I’m not alone. John Hinderaker asks, “How do we know the Hunter/Joe Biden documents are real? in his piece for PowerLine.

“Because Biden hasn’t denied that the hard drive belonged to Hunter, and the documents contained thereon are real, his calling the (New York) Post’s stories a “smear” was a non-denial denial,” wrote Hinderaker.

The FBI had a copy of the hard drive for several months, but has not provided any insight.  Rudy Giuliani, and his attorney, Bob Costello, met with the computer store owner and reviewed the contents prior to their release.  However, because of Giuliani’s relationship with the president, I am cautious.

It appears to me that the Biden camp will continue to stonewall their response with the hope that it will go away without media attention prior to Election Day.

All the more reason for releasing the Durham report, that is sure to include Biden’s involvement in the Deep State coup against the president.

MEANWHILE, The Federalist used the New York Post story to show “once and for all that Trump’s impeachment was all based on a lie.”  You will recall that the basis for the impeachment was that President Trump pressured the president of Ukraine to launch investigations into the energy company Burisma for the purely political purpose of hurting Joe Biden.

In the piece by David Marcus, he writes, “If the trove of emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop are accurate (there’s the “if true” disclaimer), and they have not been disputed, this argument falls to pieces.”

Another “if.”  “If these emails are accurate,” writes Marcus, “then it is as clear as is the summer sun that Hunter Biden was absolutely selling access to his father and the Obama administration in exchange for his lavish salary.”  This was the heart of the Trump defense.

My view is that President Trump can use the Biden’s denials in future campaign speeches, to remind voters that his impeachment was a desperate ploy on the part of Democrats that included a cover-up on behalf of Joe Biden.

THE BIDEN LEAD – I am among those who have doubted Joe Biden’s lead, especially those in double digits, the media wants us to believe.  At the same time, I am suspicious when a Biden staffer leaks “Please take the fact that we are not ahead by double digits.  Those are inflated national public polling numbers.”

She reportedly also said that Trump can still win, and that the race is “neck and neck” in Arizona and North Carolina.”

“The current situation brings about a feeling of déjà vu of the 2016 race when polls show Trump trailed Hillary Clinton, the then failed Democrat nominee for the White House,” comments Allen Zhong in The Epoch Times.

He notes that a study published in August by CloudResearch, an online market research and data collection company, found polls are unable to capture the full extent of support for Trump due to a “shy voter” phenomenon. 

The study shows that 11.7 percent of Republican voters fall into the “shy voter” category, meaning that they are reluctant to disclose to pollsters their true preferences for whom they would vote.

SO, WHO DO YOU BELIEVE? – No double digit leads, the Biden spokesperson says, yet the Daily Caller is reporting that Trump trails among seniors in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania by 20, 30 and 11 points, respectively.  Because the pandemic affected seniors disproportionately, they’re blaming Trump’s handling of the pandemic.  Do they really believe the Biden claim that he would have handled the pandemic more efficiently?  Balderdash.

The Morning Consult poll shows Trump trailing by 13 points with white suburban women.

HE WOULD DO WHAT?! – “I didn’t vote for Trump in 2016, but I’d crawl over broken glass to vote for him now,” reads the headline in a piece for The Federalist by David Sound.  He got my attention.

Having voted for every Republican presidential candidate since 1980, he was convinced “Trump was just another New York liberal,” but on election night he recalls smiling, happy that at least Hillary Clinton wouldn’t be president.

“His bluster and bravado didn’t appeal to me.  I took him literally but not seriously, in contrast to his supporters who took him seriously but not literally,” he writes.

Sound writes of Trump’s commitment to keeping his campaign promises, unlike most politicians, and by the end of 2017, “I considered myself a Trump supporter.”

He listed a number of Trump’s accomplishments that he welcomed, many of which have long been forgotten by most of us.

As the details around SpyGate were revealed in 2018, he “became a full-throated proponent of Trump, incensed that the Obama administration colluded with Clinton and the Democrat National Committee, and legacy media to weaponize the federal government intelligence and law enforcement agencies against an opposition party candidate and that a sitting president.”

“I don’t care about the tone of his tweets nor if his opponents think he’s rude. I’ve seen that he is a patriot who genuinely loves the United States of America and its people,” he concludes. “I misjudged Trump in 2016, but I will do everything I can to see that he is reelected in 2020 – and I’m sure I’m not the only one.”

And the media claims Trump isn’t expanding his base from 2016.

PONDER THIS – Suppose C-Span’s Steve Scully’s lie had not been revealed and that he went on to moderate the second debate.  Knowing what we know now about Scully, what do you think Trump’s chances were of getting a fair shake?

The answer is clear, yet the leftist Washington Post claims Trump’s withdrawal hurt his reelection chances.  Ridiculous.

AND THIS – A total of 353 of the 3,141 counties in America located in 29 of the nation’s 50 states have 1.8 million more unregistered voters than residents, according to an analysis by Judicial Watch.

Eight states, including Alaska, Colorado, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Vermont, were found to have statewide registered voter total exceeding 100 percent of residents.

Judicial Watch sued Ohio and California to clean up their registration rolls, and is currently working to get Colorado and Illinois to comply.

May God continue to bless the United States of America.
