Here's an interesting gamble for you.

How about if we start a campaign to convince all the sane women of voting age in the country to tell all their male significant others that they are shut off if The Orange One wins in November? They can't just threaten to do it "if you vote for him", because most of the men would doubtless just lie about it. This way there'd be no element of saying one thing and doing another. The only substantive proof would be if Harris wins. The (I'd like to think small percentage of) women who would vote orange themselves don't count, obviously.

When I started pondering it, I was sort of joking, but more I think about it, it could work.

It would lead to a spike in homicides that would ironically propel Trump the White House.

MAGA women are just as crazy as their MAGA men. There are no sane women of voting age that are MAGA.

Should also include control of the Senate.

Hadn't even heard of it (nor its inspiration Lysistrata), but looks intriguing.

I had a vague memory of some Greek play about this. I think there have been instances where this was actually tried but I'm not sure how it worked out. But, hey, no harm in giving it a go to see if there are enough women that are mates with men that are persuadable through such persuasion. Maybe 11,780 women in Pennsylvania can convince their mates to vote against Trump and that's the margin that Harris wins by. :-)

Speaking as a married man who does not always vote the same as his spouse, you all shut your fool mouths.

I think that's been tried before. Turns out women are just as horny as men, maybe more so.

And other issues:

This will be offset by all the MAGA men who have requested ballots by mail who will vote for their wives and girlfriends and daughters - and the women will be charged with voting fraud under President Dictator From Day One but pardoned only if they continue to suffer nonconsensual activity from their menfolk.

And only if he thinks they're 'hot'.






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.
