Prices of the electricity we use to charge

His team seem pretty incompetent at this sort of stuff and the authorities are pre-warned that he is going to try it

there are plenty of clever people in the backroom in both camps. Harris has 21 billionaires, Trump 14 but Elon Musk is the biggest so pretty evenly matched in terms of muscles. When Trump said that he has a little secret with Mike Johnson, the maga congress leader, it seems that he was talking about this plan to take power if he loses the vote. It was saneagle who explained to me the dark art of winning power before Jan 6. Back then Powell talked in code about the Kraken. This time, it's Mike Johnson.

Yeah but Musk is the only high profile one the public are really familiar with, and with his nickname of 'space-karen' I think most see him as a bit of a joke.

 

[Woosh]

Both sides are financed by the billionaires, so trade policies will remain substantially unchanged. The difference is in the tax rates, government funding and government contracts. If Trump wins, I expect Musk will control nasa, if Harris wins, bezos may get some contracts.

CT should stand for Critical Thinking instead of.. hehe.
Try remembering facts for a change.

Who had the mules dropping "ballots" at night?
Let's look at this "theorey"

Evidence Gaps in '2000 Mules' - FactCheck.org

A conservative film now playing in select theaters around the country isn't "determinative, definitive" proof of widespread voter fraud, as former President Donald Trump has claimed.

www.factcheck.org

"Smartphone location data is sold" Fact.
(They couldn't sell it if it didn't track accurately?)

"People in vicinity of 10 *or more* drop boxes AND five or more 'non-profit' " Fact.
Drop, kerching..etc, who votes 10 times, at 10 different places +, and then visits 5 NGO's?

"But even if the ballots were dropped at boxes *Illegally*" Fact.
If it's illegal then the ballot is invalid, y?

Vote in person, on the day, with ID.
After all if you've nothing to hide.. isn't that the mantra?
Open boxes in a pickup truck! Are they taking this seriously?

I don't get what you are trying to say.
The article you linked to did not confirm the story at the centre of the plot.

If Nigel Farage is warning Trump to go gracefully, we know he’s in trouble

For all his faults, the Reform UK leader has offered some sage advice to Trump, writes Sean O’Grady. But only time will tell if his ‘friend’ will listen

I can't see Trump go peacefully with all the pending court cases against him and Jan 6 prisoners in jail at the moment.

2000 mules. The sequel to One Ass.

The only ever election fraud is the one people are balloting for, namely Trump himself.

I can't see Trump go peacefully with all the pending court cases against him and Jan 6 prisoners in jail at the moment.

If he doesn't win it he's likely going to end up in prison, and as a super duper consolation prize, Musk's stock is going to take a nosedive.
They might also with more time on their hands look very closely into the legality of Musk's attempt to buy votes
So if Trump loses, we're in for a very interesting couple of years.

Man Planned to Use Drone With Explosive to Attack Substation, U.S. Says

"On Saturday, the sources went with him to a hotel in Nashville, where they conducted a Nordic ritual, which included a Nordic prayer and discussion about the Norse god Odin, prosecutors said.

The criminal complaint said that neo-Nazis and white supremacists sometimes take part in such rituals before conducting an attack to ask for help from the gods — and also because Adolf Hitler took interest in pagan and Nordic traditions."

"In the end, he sold the broken electric car at a loss and bought a Toyota Corolla — a car made in 2007 that he felt was more reliable — for the equivalent of $20,000, a sum that included the hefty taxes imposed on gasoline vehicles. Taxes can be higher than the cost of importing the vehicle.

This country was the world's first to ban imports of non-electric private cars. The switch to EVs has been bumpy

“Spare parts that are imported from China are expensive, few mechanics are able to fix such cars and the resale value of such cars is poor.”

CSUF Engineering Math Model Predicts Next US President
Retired CSUF Professor’s Math Model Has Correctly Forecasted Three of the Last Four Presidential Elections

"In the 2024 race for the White House, Putcha’s mathematical model forecasts former President Donald Trump to win with 47.95% of the popular vote and 271 electoral votes, while Vice President Kamala Harris would gain 46.12% of the popular vote and 267 electoral votes — a 2% margin of error. "

"Factors that could skew the model’s prediction are undecided voters, or voters who may refuse to participate in public polls, Putcha said."

Solar export price is supply and demand and similar to the EV scenario, the more panels privately fitted then utilities can less afford all the payments so cost price per KW exported will go down . Like EV's the more that replace ICE vehicles then RFL income will suffer , gov't/ dvla has tno choice but to start charging a RFL fee to balance the books.
