  • He had 63 chances to show there was massive election fraud and showed zero. I expected people to acknowledge this and move on. But nut jobs won't believe it, because they are nut jobs. Hey look at this blog, it show about of evidence. That I guess Cheetos lawyers just ignored. Because everyone is against him.

    If this election were overturned by mere allegations from the losing side, our democracy would enter a death spiral. We would never see the whole nation accept an election again. Every four years would be a scramble for power at any cost. The electoral college, which most of us on this side have been defending for years, would cease to exist, leaving many of our states with no real say at all in choosing a president. - Soon to be Senate Minority Leader, Mitch McConnell (R)

    Are you high? We don't live in a democracy - first, and the republic is already in a death spiral. Biden will be presiding over it and it's not because of trump. Any republican would have faced the same abuse - see bush- just most of them would have not given them so much ammo.

    Our republic is in a death spiral because of the rise of the internet and the left. The left can't just survive on its own. It needs an enemy to fight, always. For the left to be satisfied everyone else must die. All other ideas must perish. That's why now, and at every point in history they've been so militant.

    The Republicans have been the minority party for a good while. Who invaded the Capitol? LOL, the LEFT?  That was Trump's big failure, and last shot power grab. My way or the highway. He hits the highway in a few days because of it. 

    What Trump has done is make outright lying an acceptable thing in politics. The Washington Post's lie tracker went tilt after the election.

    Representative democracy, also known as indirect democracy or representative government, is a type of democracy founded on the principle of elected officials representing a group of people, as opposed to direct democracy.

    I guess you brought up this right wing talking point to keep from answer the question. Again what will make these nut jobs accept the reality that there wasn't any massive voter fraud? If people can't even agree on reality, no is the way to agree on anything else.

    Exactly. The folks who invaded the Capitol were there to "stop the steal" at the behest of Trumpie. He's created an alternate reality where he could never lose at anything- except he lost an election, and had to create a reason in his whacked out mind as to why.  

    Fraud? It got thrown out of court 60+ times for lack of evidence, but the conspiracies are never going to die from the MAGA POV. 🙁 

  • Supreme Court Refuses To Hear Post-Election Fraud Cases ...

    www.christianitydaily.com/articles/10485/20210112/...

    Jan 12, 2021 · The Supreme Court refused to hear the post-election fraud cases filed by President Donald Trump's legal team including those cases filed by the GOP and Trump Lawyer Sidney Powell, a report says. As per Forbes on Monday, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected the motion of the Trump Team to

  • Again I don't suppose any of you Trump haters would bet anything of value that there was absolutely no fraud. And the fact 60 compromised judges decided not to even look into it proves nothing.

    WSS

  • so the courts REFUSED TO HEAR THE CASES. that means THEY REFUSED TO HEAR the CASES.

    They never got to HEAR any evidence because they were terrified their families would be targeted

    by the left, and they would be slimed all over the media.

    "lack of standing" BY THE PRESIDENT?

    I wish we could have INTELLIGENT conversations from the left, instead of tired old slimey parroting of fake news antagonistic talking points. But, it won't happen. Just got worse.

  • You guys prove what I said true, precisely, in your attempts to refute it. Right now you have an enemy. 

    It doesn't matter if I say I agree or disagree or that the national guard should have mowed the capital protestors down...you don't hear. You're incapable of hearing. That is why the left will begin eating itself in earnest very soon. You scoff now but you'll see. Sooner than you'd like to believe. I hope we all survive long enough for me to rub your noses in your sins like a bad dog. 

  • You refuse to acknowledge the capital protestors are exactly the same as the blm/antifa/left protestors by the way but...they are. Exactly the same. And I have the exact same esteem for them. None. 

  • Again I don't suppose any of you Trump haters would bet anything of value that there was absolutely no fraud. And the fact 60 compromised judges decided not to even look into it proves nothing.

  • Gee, I didn't realize it was a mods place to change other's quotes..

    "Food for thought! Written by a Democrat! Ron Thomson

    Just a short note prior to you reading this article. Of all of the hundreds of articles written about Donald J. Trump this one is by far the most authentic. No matter your politics you will have a better understanding of our President and our politics after reading this.

     Very interesting theory on Trump's success. The mayor of Livermore California explains Trump’s popularity and success. This is perhaps the best explanation for Trump's popularity. Marshall Kamena is a registered Democrat and was elected mayor of Livermore, CA.. He ran on the democratic ticket as he knew a Bay Area city would never vote for a Republican. He is as conservative as they come. He wrote the following: Trump’s 'Lack of Decorum, Dignity, and Statesmanship' By Marshall Kamena, Mayor of Livermore, CA.

    My Leftist friends (as well as many ardent #NeverTrumpers) constantly ask me if I’m not bothered by Donald Trump’s lack of decorum. They ask if I don’t think his tweets are “beneath the dignity of the office.” Here’s my answer: We Right-thinking people have tried dignity. There could not have been a man of more quiet dignity than George W. Bush as he suffered the outrageous lies and politically motivated hatreds that undermined his presidency. We tried statesmanship. Could there be another human being on this earth who so desperately prized “collegiality” as John McCain? We tried propriety – has there been a nicer human being ever than Mitt Romney? And the results were always the same. This is because, while we were playing by the rules of dignity, collegiality and propriety, the Left has been, for the past 60 years, engaged in a knife fight where the only rules are those of Saul Alinsky and the Chicago mob.

     I don’t find anything “dignified,” “collegial” or “proper” about Barack Obama’s lying about what went down on the streets of Ferguson in order to ramp up racial hatreds because racial hatreds serve the Democratic Party. I don’t see anything “dignified” in lying about the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi and imprisoning an innocent filmmaker to cover your tracks. I don’t see anything “statesman-like” in weaponizing the IRS to be used to destroy your political opponents and any dissent. Yes, Obama was “articulate” and “polished” but in no way was he in the least bit “dignified,” “collegial” or “proper.” The Left has been engaged in a war against America since the rise of the Children of the ‘60s. To them, it has been an all-out war where nothing is held sacred and nothing is seen as beyond the pale.. It has been a war they’ve fought with violence, the threat of violence, demagoguery and lies from day one – the violent take-over of the universities – 'till today.

     The problem is that, through these years, the Left has been the only side fighting this war. While the Left has been taking a knife to anyone who stands in their way, the Right has continued to act with dignity, collegiality and propriety. With Donald Trump, this all has come to an end. Donald Trump is America ’s first wartime president in the Culture War. During wartime, things like “dignity” and “collegiality” simply aren’t the most essential qualities one looks for in their warriors. Ulysses Grant was a drunk whose behavior in peacetime might well have seen him drummed out of the Army for conduct unbecoming. Had Abraham Lincoln applied the peacetime rules of propriety and booted Grant, the Democrats might well still be holding their slaves today. Lincoln rightly recognized that, “I cannot spare this man. He fights.” General George Patton was a vulgar-talking.. In peacetime, this might have seen him stripped of rank. But, had Franklin Roosevelt applied the normal rules of decorum then, Hitler and the Socialists would barely be five decades into their thousand-year Reich.

     Trump is fighting. And what’s particularly delicious is that, like Patton standing over the battlefield as his tanks obliterated Rommel’s, he’s shouting, “You magnificent bastards, I read your book!” That is just the icing on the cake, but it’s wonderful to see that not only is Trump fighting, he’s defeating the Left using their own tactics. That book is Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals – a book so essential to the Liberals’ war against America that it is and was the playbook for the entire Obama administration and the subject of Hillary Clinton’s senior thesis. It is a book of such pure evil, that, just as the rest of us would dedicate our book to those we most love or those to whom we are most indebted, Alinsky dedicated his book to Lucifer.

     Trump’s tweets may seem rash and unconsidered but, in reality, he is doing exactly what Alinsky suggested his followers do. First, instead of going after “the fake media” — and they are so fake that they have literally gotten every single significant story of the past 60 years not just wrong, but diametrically opposed to the truth, from the Tet Offensive to Benghazi, to what really happened on the streets of Ferguson, Missouri — Trump isolated CNN.. He made it personal. Then, just as Alinsky suggests, he employs ridicule which Alinsky described as “the most powerful weapon of all.”... Most importantly, Trump’s tweets have put CNN in an untenable and unwinnable position. They need to respond. This leaves them with only two choices. They can either “go high” (as Hillary would disingenuously declare of herself and the fake news would disingenuously report as the truth) and begin to honestly and accurately report the news or they can double-down on their usual tactics and hope to defeat Trump with twice their usual hysteria and demagoguery.

      The problem for CNN (et al.) with the former is that, if they were to start honestly reporting the news, that would be the end of the Democratic Party they serve. It is nothing but the incessant use of fake news (read: propaganda) that keeps the Left alive. Imagine, for example, if CNN had honestly and accurately reported then-candidate Barack Obama’s close ties to foreign terrorists (Rashid Khalidi), domestic terrorists (William Ayers & Bernardine Dohrn), the mafia (Tony Rezko) or the true evils of his spiritual mentor, Jeremiah Wright’s church. Imagine if they had honestly and accurately conveyed the evils of the Obama administration’s weaponizing of the IRS to be used against their political opponents or his running of guns to the Mexican cartels or the truth about the murder of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the Obama administration’s cover-up. So, to my friends on the Left — and the #NeverTrumpers as well — do I wish we lived in a time when our president could be “collegial” and “dignified” and “proper”? Of course I do. These aren’t those times. This is war. And it’s a war that the Left has been fighting without opposition for the past 50 years. So, say anything you want about this president - I get it - he can be vulgar, he can be crude, he can be undignified at times. I don’t care. I can’t spare this man. He fights for America!"

    No you do not. You need to investigate to see if the fraud affected the outcome or not. Even if it didn't those who perpetrated it should be punished. And if it did the election should be nullified

    My Leftist friends (as well as many ardent #NeverTrumpers) constantly ask me if I’m not bothered by Donald Trump’s lack of decorum. They ask if I don’t think his tweets are “beneath the dignity of the office.” Here’s my answer: We Right-thinking people have tried dignity. There could not have been a man of more quiet dignity than George W. Bush as he suffered the outrageous lies and politically motivated hatreds that undermined his presidency. We tried statesmanship. Could there be another human being on this earth who so desperately prized “collegiality” as John McCain? We tried propriety – has there been a nicer human being ever than Mitt Romney? And the results were always the same. This is because, while we were playing by the rules of dignity, collegiality and propriety, the Left has been, for the past 60 years, engaged in a knife fight where the only rules are those of Saul Alinsky and the Chicago mob.

     I don’t find anything “dignified,” “collegial” or “proper” about Barack Obama’s lying about what went down on the streets of Ferguson in order to ramp up racial hatreds because racial hatreds serve the Democratic Party. I don’t see anything “dignified” in lying about the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi and imprisoning an innocent filmmaker to cover your tracks. I don’t see anything “statesman-like” in weaponizing the IRS to be used to destroy your political opponents and any dissent. Yes, Obama was “articulate” and “polished” but in no way was he in the least bit “dignified,” “collegial” or “proper.” The Left has been engaged in a war against America since the rise of the Children of the ‘60s. To them, it has been an all-out war where nothing is held sacred and nothing is seen as beyond the pale.. It has been a war they’ve fought with violence, the threat of violence, demagoguery and lies from day one – the violent take-over of the universities – 'till today.

     The problem is that, through these years, the Left has been the only side fighting this war. While the Left has been taking a knife to anyone who stands in their way, the Right has continued to act with dignity, collegiality and propriety. With Donald Trump, this all has come to an end. Donald Trump is America ’s first wartime president in the Culture War. During wartime, things like “dignity” and “collegiality” simply aren’t the most essential qualities one looks for in their warriors. Ulysses Grant was a drunk whose behavior in peacetime might well have seen him drummed out of the Army for conduct unbecoming. Had Abraham Lincoln applied the peacetime rules of propriety and booted Grant, the Democrats might well still be holding their slaves today. Lincoln rightly recognized that, “I cannot spare this man. He fights.” General George Patton was a vulgar-talking.. In peacetime, this might have seen him stripped of rank. But, had Franklin Roosevelt applied the normal rules of decorum then, Hitler and the Socialists would barely be five decades into their thousand-year Reich.

     Trump is fighting. And what’s particularly delicious is that, like Patton standing over the battlefield as his tanks obliterated Rommel’s, he’s shouting, “You magnificent bastards, I read your book!” That is just the icing on the cake, but it’s wonderful to see that not only is Trump fighting, he’s defeating the Left using their own tactics. That book is Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals – a book so essential to the Liberals’ war against America that it is and was the playbook for the entire Obama administration and the subject of Hillary Clinton’s senior thesis. It is a book of such pure evil, that, just as the rest of us would dedicate our book to those we most love or those to whom we are most indebted, Alinsky dedicated his book to Lucifer.

     Trump’s tweets may seem rash and unconsidered but, in reality, he is doing exactly what Alinsky suggested his followers do. First, instead of going after “the fake media” — and they are so fake that they have literally gotten every single significant story of the past 60 years not just wrong, but diametrically opposed to the truth, from the Tet Offensive to Benghazi, to what really happened on the streets of Ferguson, Missouri — Trump isolated CNN.. He made it personal. Then, just as Alinsky suggests, he employs ridicule which Alinsky described as “the most powerful weapon of all.”... Most importantly, Trump’s tweets have put CNN in an untenable and unwinnable position. They need to respond. This leaves them with only two choices. They can either “go high” (as Hillary would disingenuously declare of herself and the fake news would disingenuously report as the truth) and begin to honestly and accurately report the news or they can double-down on their usual tactics and hope to defeat Trump with twice their usual hysteria and demagoguery.

      The problem for CNN (et al.) with the former is that, if they were to start honestly reporting the news, that would be the end of the Democratic Party they serve. It is nothing but the incessant use of fake news (read: propaganda) that keeps the Left alive. Imagine, for example, if CNN had honestly and accurately reported then-candidate Barack Obama’s close ties to foreign terrorists (Rashid Khalidi), domestic terrorists (William Ayers & Bernardine Dohrn), the mafia (Tony Rezko) or the true evils of his spiritual mentor, Jeremiah Wright’s church. Imagine if they had honestly and accurately conveyed the evils of the Obama administration’s weaponizing of the IRS to be used against their political opponents or his running of guns to the Mexican cartels or the truth about the murder of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the Obama administration’s cover-up. So, to my friends on the Left — and the #NeverTrumpers as well — do I wish we lived in a time when our president could be “collegial” and “dignified” and “proper”? Of course I do. These aren’t those times. This is war. And it’s a war that the Left has been fighting without opposition for the past 50 years. So, say anything you want about this president - I get it - he can be vulgar, he can be crude, he can be undignified at times. I don’t care. I can’t spare this man. He fights for America!"

    I think we all remember voting trump in 2016 as a vote to keep out higgardly - we didnt know exactly who we were getting with trump (politically) 

    showy, narcissistic, self-aggrandizing yes... but a POTUS?   It was so much fun seeing (reading) the leftys here screaming about the lack of decorum.... 

    My vote for trump in 2020 was my middle finger to all the establishment dc politics and YEARS of playing nice 

    Trump has changed the landscape forever - and while Im not on the civil war ending yet,  I do know that the 74 million of us that voted trump 

    will be here watching waiting for biden harris to get caught perpetuating the very notion of war that cysko says IMO correctly as "eating thier own"   

    and like Axe says and Im paraphrasing to my feelings -  thanks a lot for voting these asswipes in - you know who you are

  • Justice Dept. ends Pennsylvania election investigation, finding 'insufficient evidence' to prove bad intent - The Washington Post

    The top federal prosecutor in Harrisburg, Pa., announced Friday that his office has closed an investigation into nine discarded ballots found in the northeastern part of the state that President Trump had touted to support his unfounded claims of election rigging, saying in a statement that the probe had found “insufficient evidence to prove criminal intent on the part of the person who discarded the ballots.”

    First off, that number is wrong, but who cares, leave it as is.

    You do realize those cases were thrown out without them even looking at any evidence don't you ?

    Same for the Supreme Court, they never looked at any of the the evidence.

    There may be another (at least one) case post "Inauguration" that they may deem worthy of being looked at.

    They'll presume once the "danger" has passed it will be safe too look into.
