It didn't really impact me. As I said before, it's almost like he's doing it on purpose, to make sure people know where he stands.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.6zNtebEI
I am surprised it took that long for Trump to invite someone like Tony Hinchcliffe to be a part of his rallies, considering some of the other choices he's made. It's like Trump is making sure America sees him as a inappropriate "bad grandpa". If I wasn't sure, I'd think Trump was doing it on purpose, either to provoke the Democratic electorate, or to endear himself to the Republican electorate. Maybe even both.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.H7be-01E
I normally check in the mornings, when I'm still waking up. This is just habit, normally before I do much of anything else.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.t7a9U060
The Trump Rally in Madison Square Garden, last night. Specifically, roast comedian Tony Hinchcliffe being invited to open the rally by calling Puerto Rico a floating pile of garbage. I don't know whose idea it was, but it underscores Trump's feelings about Puerto Rico, even as his camp denies this.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.y5mF5VTk
Not much happened over the weekend, so I don't feel too anxious. However, as the election approaches, I'm probably going to feel a certain type of way.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.3Sv7-0QQ
They really don't. It's just more stuff they say. The Nevada rulings make me feel a little better, though.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.6zNtebEI
I don't think Tony Hinchcliffe was the right person for the rally. I also don't think what The View did or didn't say about Trump matters now. That was far before he ran for POTUS in 2012, and again in 2016.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.t7a9U060
There was fallout from the MSG Trump Rally, specific to the comedian who opened the rally. Tony Hinchcliffe is still defending his performance. There is also some response by TV show The View about things Donald Trump said about them on his Joe Rogan appearance. They all dispute the things he said, including that they were favorable to Trump when he appeared in his 2011 appearance on the show. Finally, like Georgia, Nevada just struck down some last-minute voting changes, and for that, I am grateful.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.y5mF5VTk
I've mostly been working, so I don't really have a thought or feeling about these. No major stories have come out, as far as I am aware, but that could change.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.3Sv7-0QQ
As I said before, this is similar to things that happened in 2020, so I'm not surprised. It's not going to have much impact on my day.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.6zNtebEI
I expected some of the voter interference by individuals. Some folks did it in 2020. Even here in my small town, someone attempted to stop us from voting by telling us we weren't allowed to put a mail-in ballot in the provided ballot box. It's not surprising.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.H7be-01E
When I woke up, I checked Twitter/X, and Reddit. I did this after I got my coffee, first thing in the morning.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.t7a9U060
Larry Savage Jr, a former Indiana GOP candidate for their House of Republicans, was seen pocketing ballots during a test run of their voting machines in Madison County, IN. He's claiming he's being targeted as a MAGA supporter. There have also been ballot boxes set on fire in Oregon and Washington State. The election is less than a week away, and we already have instances of people trying to steal votes, or prevent them from being processed. This is on top of attempted changes in Nevada and Georgia that were struck down by their state courts. On another topic, Kamala Harris had a huge rally of 75000 people in Washington DC.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.y5mF5VTk
I've mostly been fine. Nothing of note has happened, except the size of Kamala Harris' crowd in DC.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.3Sv7-0QQ
This actually impacted my day, because not only is it direct voter intimidation, but it happened near me, just across the GA/FL border from me.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.6zNtebEI
I'm angry, because I'm sure this kid thinks it's harmless fun. He's probably going to end up as a MAGA darling, and do interviews with Fox News or similar networks. I'm also worried about how many others will copycat his behavior. I'll be so glad when this election is over.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.H7be-01E
I was working and saw this online. I decided to share it, because it's in my area.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.t7a9U060
A teenager showed up to a Duval County polling place, in Neptune Beach, Florida, and wielded a machete at voters. He's been arrested. https://www.news4jax.com/news/local/2024/10/30/18-year-old-raises-machete-to-antagonize-voters-at-neptune-beach-polling-site-police/

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.y5mF5VTk
I'm a little stressed out. I can't seem to put it out of my mind.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.3Sv7-0QQ
I got a little chuckle out of those. So, yes, it was a nice change of pace.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.6zNtebEI
I was cheered up a little by the results of the World Series. I really thought the Yankees would win, but this made me feel much better. Also, it was kind of funny seeing Donald Trump attempting to see "normal" with the trash truck, only to kind of mess that up.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.H7be-01E
I woke up and got my coffee, then started reading the news online. I do this everyday, as a matter of habit.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.t7a9U060
Some positive news, as the LA Dodgers won the World Series. I did see that Trump tried to open the door of a trash truck with his signage on it, missed the handle, and almost fell climbing in. He also had Brett Favre, ex-football player, speak at one of his rallies.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.y5mF5VTk
Since yesterday, I've been a little less stressed, but I'm still dreading the fallout from the election. Somehow, I don't dread the results of the election, just the violence I anticipate when the results come out.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.3Sv7-0QQ
I was mostly annoyed by it. It's a simple mistake, but in this election, it wasn't a great way to go.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.6zNtebEI
I can imagine the Pennsylvania ABC mistake will probably fuel speculation that the election will be "stolen". It already makes Trump look like he knew it would happen, at least to his voting base.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.H7be-01E
I just woke up. I have checked the news, and am having my coffee.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.t7a9U060
Someone at a Pennsylvania ABC affiliate accidentally posted a ticker at the bottom of the screen that said Kamala Harris had won the 2024 election in their state. That would be a minor mistake, had Trump not stated that Pennsylvania would "steal" the election, literally the day before. Otherwise, the news from last night was mostly Halloween stuff.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.y5mF5VTk
I mostly didn't have any stress yesterday. I just worked, and then watched horror videos until the night was over, because it was Halloween.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.3Sv7-0QQ
Most of this is just reaction to the last Trump rallys. I'm kind of surprised that Tiktok took up the Access Hollywood tape again, but I understand younger voters might not have heard about it.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.6zNtebEI
I'm glad we're supposed to be in the quiet period before the election, but I am dreading everything surrounding Tuesday's election, and everything following it.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.H7be-01E
I haven't read a lot of news in the past 24 hours. I have been preparing to hunker down for the election's aftermath, and a possible tropical storm. But I am drinking my coffee, and reading it, now.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.t7a9U060
A few things have been in the news yesterday. One was the "closing argument" speech, in which Trump said he would protect women "whether they want him to or not", which isn't reassuring. Also, Elon Musk's "lottery" to Trump voters is in the courts at the moment. The Access Hollywood "grab her by the pussy" tape is making the rounds again, this time on social media app Many voters of Puerto Rican heritage are speaking out about the comedian who called Puerto Rico a floating pile of garbage, saying it influenced their votes. There was also a statement that Trump made against Liz Cheney, saying she is a war hawk and that she wouldn't be so inclined if she had "nine barrels" pointed at her.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.y5mF5VTk
I've mostly been in preparation mode the past 24 hours, buying some extra supplies for our home, because we're planning on staying in during that time, not only because of the election aftermath, but there's a possibility of a tropical storm in the area, as well. So, my stress has been compounded, but I have focused it on preparation.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.3Sv7-0QQ
If it wasn't for the fact that this man is running for POTUS, I would just laugh it off. But, there are still people willing to vote for him, in spite of this. I'm sickened.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.6zNtebEI
I keep thinking Trump can't shock me anymore. I keep thinking he's found the lowest point. Then things like this happen, and I'm shocked again. Frankly, it's exhausting. I'm so tired. It's been at least 8 years of him making appearances for these rallies, and 12 years total of him running for president, including an aborted 2012 run. I'm sick of it.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.H7be-01E
I went to town to take my son to work, then came home and saw this. I wanted to get it down, while it's fresh in my mind. It's 2:55pm EST, in coastal Georgia, where I live.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.t7a9U060
According to a few news sources, and their accompanying videos, Trump ranted about his microphone not working at a rally in Milwaukee, threatened to hit someone backstage over it, then simulated fellatio on the mic stand. "Milwaukee trump rally fellatio" will bring it up in Google. The video was disturbing. It looked like someone doing a stand up set, rather than running for president.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.y5mF5VTk
I was fine, because we were just off Halloween, and allegedly in the "quiet moment" before the election. Now, I'm nauseated.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.3Sv7-0QQ
None of this changes anything for me. Even the semi-positive polls changes that, because Hillary had positive polling in 2016, and she still lost, via the Electoral College.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.6zNtebEI
While I'm glad things are winding down, I'm still mostly tense. My family and I are planning to hunker down the first week after the election, and to stay home. None of this news changes that plan.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.H7be-01E
I just woke up, made coffee, and am reading the news, as I do most days.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.t7a9U060
Harrison Ford endorsed Kamala Harris. Elon Musk is being sued for labor law violations in California for threatening to dock canvassing team if they didn't meet certain goals. The company he hired to take them to their routes allegedly also put them into a U-Haul truck, because he didn't arrange prior transportation. Washington State has activated their National Guard, in case of post-election violence. The NY Times ran an opinion piece against Trump, in one paragraph: "You already know Donald Trump. He is unfit to lead. Watch him. Listen to those who know him best. He tried to subvert an election and remains a threat to democracy. He helped overturn Roe, with terrible consequences. Mr. Trump’s corruption and lawlessness go beyond elections: It’s his whole ethos. He lies without limit. If he’s re-elected, the G.O.P. won’t restrain him. Mr. Trump will use the government to go after opponents. He will pursue a cruel policy of mass deportations. He will wreak havoc on the poor, the middle class and employers. Another Trump term will damage the climate, shatter alliances and strengthen autocrats. Americans should demand better. Vote."

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.y5mF5VTk
Again, nothing changes for me. I still am on alert, and still planning on staying home, at least until that first week after the election is over.
