What is going to be the October Surprise?

Mother Pence is just Pence in a wig!

No, last election it was the COMEY LETTER.

Joe Biden is arranging for there to be a severe shortage of this!

Stock up now!!

Nobody gives a shit about Michael Flynn.

WTF happened with SCOTUS' ruling on Dump's taxes?? Tick tock...⏱

The pee tape?

Fuck you OP, you piece of shit.

Flynn confessed twice and you’re too fucking stupid to remember Comey interfering with the election.

Your boy’s reputation precedes him. Get ready for law and order being restored to the federal government. All your little heroes like Barr are going to pay for wiping their asses with the constitution.

Nice

It's Aliens!

If an October surprise is going to work, it's going to have to be big. Even the deplorables understand October surprises. Conceptually, it doesn't pack the punch it used to.

Comey was a great example. It was bullshit, but it was massive. I think she would have won (the EC, too) probably barely but nonetheless, if not for Comey. That was a real whopper. And if it hadn't happened, Access Hollywood might have been enough to get in his way.

Weirdest election ever, that one. But just like wagging the dog, the October surprise isn't what is used to be.

Something you won't like.

A fake vaccine or bombs over Iran

The Tax Returns!

"Comey was a great example. It was bullshit, but it was massive"

The Comey letter was a continuance of the email controversy that had been out there all of 2016. What is there with Biden?

Trump was impeached over using Ukraine to drum up a case against Biden and his son. What has changed? The only difference is that Trump isn't out there talking about it because it makes him look stupid (and he is), but that all changes when Barr claims to have found significant evidence resulting in an immediate indictment (sealed, of course, preventing disclosure) and a warning to the American people that Joe can't be trusted.

It worked when Comey did it to Hillary.

^ Too complicated. Plus it's been on and off, mostly off since before the virus too over the news.

The October surprise will be the sexist, racist, irresponsible imbecile in the White House and his minion in the Justice Department manipulating demonstrations in cities across America to their advantage. They will exaggerate the level of violence and lawlessness to declare emergency powers and use military force to deny civil rights and freedoms. They will scare the white populace into believing events have gotten out of control and a vote for Joe Biden is a vote for defunding the police and further anarchy.

That is the October surprise I fear!

Someone is going to leak the taxes. Project Lincoln will facilitate this.

More molesting charges against Joe. Remember after Tara when Trump warned there were more things coming?

Marshall Law

[quote]. Trump warned there were more things coming?

Your master? I’m pretty sure more things to come is a standard promise because he never delivers on anything.

Trump will start a rumor that Biden is deathly ill. That may work if his running mate is a black woman.

R20 Martial.

That's a DL meme, r23

NO SALE, R19. If there were more serious allegations - and I mean unwanted sexual touching, not unwanted back rubs - we'd have heard about them already. Biden is an old guy who put his hands all over everyone. I am impressed that he learned not to do that - IN 2019. Not an issue in 2020.

[quote] damning evidence that Joe knew about the hatchet job on Flynn comes out.

hatchet job on Flynn? You are a fucking moron.

Trump will drop dead of the 'rona!

[quote]A fake vaccine

Actually I heard speculation on CNN last night there was a fear Trump would put pressure on the FDA (I think they clear vaccines?) to rush an approval, so he could claim credit. That is one surprise I would anticipate. The downside is if he backs a moderately efficacious horse, it further harms the perception of vaccines for the extra intelligent in America rolls eyes emoticon.

It will be 32 days long this year.

I agree R28, I think he'll try and rush through a vaccine by October. Of course, when people die en masse from it, it won't matter because he will already have won re-election. And as Mary Trump said in her book, he is a sociopath with no empathy. He doesn't care if people live or die.

I’m thinking it will be a leak of names via Ghislaine Maxwell proceedings. Although why we should give a shit about Bill Clinton these days is beyond me, the Repubs will use a wide paintbrush to incriminate all Dems. Ineffective to those who pay attention but to deplorables, it will be catnip. “See, they are awful”. Even though donald has been tight w Epstein and Maxwell for decades.

It's a fair point the October surprise may come from the Lincoln Project.

I expect the Trump team to attempt an October Surprise, but everything Trump touches dies and/or is completely fucked up, so I think it will actually backfire. But if voter suppression allows him to pull off another win, the level of hatred for him will ratchet up to unimaginable levels.

I thought last night if somehow he is re-elected, I'm turning off CNN. I can't bear to watch. Four years, my God... what would be left?

That won't work if Trump is one of those names, R31. And HE IS ONE OF THEM.

There will be no October Surprise OP because with mail in voting, many people will have voted by then

^ SURPRISE!

Ghislaine, you NOT in danguh, girl.

Early voting starts in September in some states. October is too late.

What hatchet job on Flynn, OP? You are a troll.

[quote] Remember when Trump warned there were more things coming?

Remember when Trump said his people were finding very interesting things about Obama's birthplace?

Remember when Trump said he would release his taxes?

Remember when Trump said he would have a replacement for Obamacare that would be better and cheaper?

Remember when Trump said Mexico would pay for the wall?

Remember when Trump said Covid would just disappear?

Trump is going to announce that he's a trans woman of color.

Once Trump and Bill Barr have finished pardoning all the criminals in their enterprise, (Roger Stone, Mike Flynn, Paul Manafort, etc)... they will release their October surprise. Formal indictments against members of the Obama administration for voter tampering, colluding with Russia - (or Ukraine), etc. All will be "Trump"ed up, of course, but Fox will be behind them promoting their efforts. They may even attempt to charge Hunter Biden with something. .... Giuliani is still working with his "guys in Ukraine" to set up Biden.

Just watch...

Here's what Donnie Deutsch says:

Why is Donnie Deutsch a thing? Yet another reason why I don't watch Morning Joe...

[quote]I find the nasty comments about LA to be amusing. Some of the most breathtakingly beautiful neighborhoods on earth exist within this area.

And they thought the Harper's letter did their heads in.

I hope the surprise will involve a grassy knoll.

I'd tell you, but then it wouldn't be a surprise.

The October surprise will be that the OP is Eric Trump.

Trump will eat a covid infected baby live on stage, just to prove the disease is harmless.

R31 As crazy as it is to say, you're right (I think.) It'll be some earth-shaking revelation of organized pedophilia among the political class. Look at the blacklisting of some DL search results! Look at Chrissy Teigen's bizarre lesbian tweets aimed at little girls that she mass deleted. Look at the Pentagon deciding, yeah, we can get away with releasing our UFO case files. Something much more scandalous and attention grabbing is coming.

A war.

I think there are high odds it's a whimper, not a bang. If Trump's fingerprints are all over it it will just be a desperate man pulling a desperate stunt.

He's discredited. Doesn't mean people just as bad won't voter for him, but everybody knows what that asshole's about at this point. It will either be outrage or indifference, but I just don't credit much surprise.

And?? R43

Other than the people who were already going to vote for him, no one will care.

Fairly or unfairly, many people believed that Hillary was capable of doing shady things.

No one thinks that about Biden and so the teflon will sling it back on Trump who will look even sleazier

R54, the Republicans started a war against Hillary when she said she wouldn't be backing cookies and having teas back in 1992. The email "scandal" was a eight month controversy before the Comey letter and the election. Biden has no such baggage, absolutely nothing remotely as bad as what was done to Hillary and what Hillary did to herself for nearly 25 years. GAME OVER.

The October surprise will be a "hot" microphone. See, "A Face In The Crowd."

That caravan should be reaching Tijuana any week now.

No, OP. In the 2016 campaign the October surprise was arrogant Comey making a public announcement that the FBI was investigating Hillary even though any investigation was short-lived and the FBI was investigating Trump and it was not short-lived.

It is possible that the October surprise will happen in very late October. Those who are pushing Trump to shut down the country now may get their wish in the days before the election, with violators taken to jail.

Trump will escalate his terror troops. Those absurd ads he's been running for weeks (the 911 ads with old ladies unable to stop home invasion and riot footage) will be playing round the clock. He wants chaos in the streets, tear gas and violence so he can look like some kind of "law enforcer", even though he's the one causing it. He's getting desperate and the only thing that he knows is hate, lies and racism. That's his toolbox.

^ Key phase, "even though he's the one causing it." No matter why there are troops in the streets, troops in the streets tear gassing protesters IS TRUMP'S AMERICA. It's a powerful visual, and no hyperbole out of Trump's mouth can change how people react to it.

My hope for Anusmouth and his family/cronies is the same for every American who is a lying, underhanded, rageful loser: humiliation, social and financial ruin, and dying alone and unloved with a leaking, prolapsed anus.

They're welcome to start fulfilling my wishes in October, which would be earlier than anticipate it happening. A 'surprise', indeed.

Maybe Trump will stroke out live on stage while yelling the n-word! (especially if Biden chooses a black lady for VEEP)

Trump's America: Unsafe, Unhealthy, Un-American.

It sounds like a Project Lincoln ad waiting to happen.

Maybe a sooner than October surprise.

What on earth could they have on Junior? Sketchy financial dealing? So many options. He's so sleazy, he will deserve anything that comes his way.

I'll bet Junior is a child molester and they have the goods on him.

I think Republicans will spring multiple October surprises, the Durham Report, Bill Barr's investigation of the investigators of Trump is due out in October. Even though it is Justice Department policy not to do anything that might affect the election 90 days before the election. He refused today in house testimony to not release it before the election.

Look for Rudy Giuliani to spring forward with new revelations about Hunter Biden and Ukraine.

Trump will announce a vaccine, it will be a big beautiful vaccine.

I sure hope Democrats will have some surprises for Trump.

OP is a tedious Trumpette. Also, there isn’t always an “October surprise.”

"Trump will announce a vaccine, it will be a big beautiful vaccine."

And this was something he put together in the WH bathroom? How else can he take credit for it?

I hope someone has taped a phone call with Putin and then the whole world can see how Trump betrays America.

I think last election proved October surprises are OVAH(drag queen voice). I'm bout to grab some bitches by they pussy.

Melania will grab her own pussy and become a feminist icon.

Yes. Queens.
