Springfield is a dry run; Preparation for more on Election Day; From Keith Olbermann's Countdown Podcast on YouTube:


Starting at 9:10 --

"Springfield Ohio is actually a dry run in fact it is two dry runs for things that are far, far worse.

The first is Trump has now revealed the real goal here to deport not just undocumented immigrants in this country but the ones who are here officially and fully legally.

Presumably that was what Trump was supposed to write when he garbled the message [on social media] and demanded "reverse deportation".

And they are already gearing up the next locations to try this out. In the ones in Alabama [Sylacauga, Alabama] I mentioned before and at Charleroi, Pennsylvania where there the racists true fears are being realized; Where immigrants are fitting in assimilating and by the way working harder than the people who had already lived there and rebirthing their community.

The second dry run is more dire. (Still I am patching things together here not quoting inside information.))

But if you wanted to see if you could get Maga thugs to disrupt Election Day by targeting a town or a city or part of a swing state that was heavily Democratic, say, Atlanta Georgia, or could be Madison Wisconsin could be anywhere.

If you wanted to estimate now just how much of an impact you could have merely by spreading plausibly deniable rumors about immigration, terrorism, cat eating;
If you wanted to make bomb threats.
Well, here's your dry run.

Sic your cowardly terrorists on - throw a dart; find a map and throw a dart on Springfield Ohio -

Sic your cowardly terrorists on Springfield Ohio and see how many people they will threaten to kill and how many locations like schools, universities, public offices; locations where there will be polling stations on November 5th;

Find out how many of them will have to be shut down how loud you have to get before those idiots who believe in you will stochastically act
on your behalf and terrorize a community on Election Day.

Because for all the hand ringing over the falsehoods about Springfield Ohio that Governor Mike Dewine (a republican who is retiring) made, he could not bring himself to blame Trump or the national GOP nor could the Republican Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno or Lieutenant Governor John Houston or attorney general Yost or Secretary of State Lacrosse because this is a dry run.

Because Trump's chances of winning and increasingly, Republicans Senate house and gubernatorial chances of winning are shrinking with every passing day.

And Trump will and they will resort to anything to change that.
Remember at all times Trump's life literally depends on winning this election. His -- nobody else's.

He will kill you to win. He would kill JD Vance to win.

Scaring people into staying home on November 5th is in fact one of the gentler and lazier of Republican options to affect the election.
It is also happily one that can be thwarted by early voting."
