BURLINGTON, ON
OPINION
For what it is worth –
Kamala Harris will be elected President of the United States today.
Will Americans riot? Some will try but the force needed to prevent serious rioting will be in place.

Donald Trump in a New York courtroom – the one he is expected to be in on November 18th to be sentenced. He has already been found guilty.
I believe that Americans will step into the voting booth and pause – do I really want this idiot to lead my country for the next four years?
The greedy will put their mark in the Trump box – the majority will vote for Harris.
Can the Democrats get control of both the House and the Senate?
That would be wonderful.
On November 18th Donald Trump is required to appear in front of Judge Juan Merchan to be sentenced – he has already been found guilty – it is now just a matter of what the sentence should be.
Jail for at least a month – six months would be better; it is what America needs at this point to underline the belief that no one is above the law.
I have been wrong before but this is what I think will happen
Salt with Pepper is an opinion column reflecting the observations and musings of the publisher of the Gazette, an on-line newspaper that is in its 8th year as a news source in Burlington and is a member of the National Newsmedia Council.

Uhhhh …..no comments after the complete and overwhelming win by DJT…..still stunned? shocked? looking for words. Your columns and comments are incredibly disrespectful to the millions of Americans who voted for him. Have you forgotten what a democracy means?…..it certainly does not
mean vote for the way I WANT you to
Editor’s note: It was an opinion piece – not me telling you what to do.
I hope you’re right Pepper. Time will tell
If KH wins and that I think is a big if, she will be told what to do Joe.
Editor’s note: Are you kidding? That you would say that publicly – is astounding. You do realize that you comment is going to be out there for at least a decade.
Really, did you miss her debate Trump where he folded like a cheap suit and her interview with Fox’s Bret Baier where she stood strong and tall? No one is going to push Kamala Harris around and she is not taken in my dictators as is DJT.
I expressed no support for either candidate. Americans will decide.
Harris was weak and offered nothing to citizens in the debate that I watched from start to finish. My wife an American from birth was taken by her lack of substance and most peculiar laugh.
Walz on the other hand was devoured by Vance. His body language was 50% stunned and 50% scared. He actually looked like Don Rickles photo I saw. Shapiro would have been a far stronger running partner as the democrats have lost support on the mid east conflict.
Ted’s Note: Pepper triggers easily and especially for an “opinion” piece. LOL please do arrange to keep your blog online in perpetuity.
I say and hope Kamala wins and it will either be by a very slim margin or a blow out. Neither candidate will be necessarily good for Canada, but KH will probably rely on data as she makes decisions. The Ukraine has the most to lose if DJT wins.
