Why the F is he talking to World Leaders? He hasn't been sworn in yet.

The election isn't over yet. Why is the media assuming he had won and are referring to him as the President-Elect?

He said in an interview he wouldn't declare victory until the last vote is counted, but then goes and set up "The office of the President Elect". The lying sack of shlt. Now the media are calling him that. He hasn't even been sworn in yet. Why the F is he taking calls from World Leaders, Prime Ministers, and the Pope and acting as if he is the President?!?

If World Leaders call him to congratulate him, then surely it is external INTERFERENCE into America's domestic democratic process. Whatever your opinion of Trump, surely the integrity of the democratic process needs to be respected.

Surely Biden has broken some domestic or foreign regulations here. It is all HIGHLY irregular.

Pretty good grift he pulled, acting all senile during the campaign. Once the establishment declared him victorious, he starts moving in like Gotti on Costellano!

[–] chrisjdel (2714) 4 years ago

Uh ... I think when you get to the point when the outstanding vote is no longer sufficient to flip critical states you can pretty much declare victory. He didn't need to wait for Georgia, Arizona, or Nevada after Pennsylvania. This sort of thing has happened every other election cycle in US history but some people are trying to manufacture problems with it this time around.

The President-elect speaking with foreign leaders is standard practice and once again, has happened every time there's a new administration. He can't engage in official diplomacy yet - although he can discuss ideas for the future.

To UncleB: were you aware Joe Biden had a childhood stutter? He managed to overcome it eventually, but it's never completely gone away. He still trips himself up sometimes or takes a pause to gather his words. Not senile though.

[–] voltaire2121 (357) 4 years ago

No, it is NOT standard practice at all. Stop making shlt up. No runner up presidential candidate has ever behaved this way before. For foreign leaders to call him up to congratulate him when the election hasn't finished is HIGHLY irregular, not to mention, it is INTERFERENCE into the INTERNAL democratic process. PLUS it is DISRESPECT to the LEGEALLY, ACTIVE, SITTING President in the White House. For him to take the calls and set up "The office of the President-Elect". What kind of treasoness BS is this? Biden should be under house arrest for TREASON.

"No, it is NOT standard practice at all."

What horseshit. Yes it IS standard practice. How old are you, twelve? Biden is not the "runner up candidate", he is the presumptive winner. Candidates with much narrower wins have been afforded the same privileges Biden is asking for.

[–] voltaire2121 (357) 4 years ago

All of the votes have not been counted yet, plus there is dispute to voter fraud. Dead people cannot vote. So NO he is NOT the pressie, not been sworn in, President-Elect is just a made up term he made up to double down on his claim of a win, that and calling his office the office of President Elect. There's only one active, sitting Pressie, and it's the Orange Trumpster. Biden shouldn't even be talking to anyone.

[–] christomacin (4730) 4 years ago

How come Trump was called President Elect and got intelligence briefings in 2016? Jill Stein was doing recounts of Wisconsin in December of 2106. Where was your righteous outrage over the concept of "President Elect" then? Up your fat asshole, I expect..

[–] voltaire2121 (357) 4 years ago

That's because Trump legally and unanimously won it in 2016. It was not contested as it is now. That bitch Clinton conceded.

This little used term President Elect is now being used to oust and undermine the sitting pressie which is INTOLERABLE.

[–] christomacin (4730) 4 years ago

The term "President Elect" is being used exactly the same way it has always been used. The only thing that's changed is that that no other sitting President in American history has been this big of a selfish asshole. Preventing unhinged lunatics from screeching about Civil War is precisely why the concept of "President Elect" exists in the first place. Ya know, peaceful transfer of power, the good of the country, all that old-fashioned stuff you psychopaths can't bother to be fucked with.

[–] chrisjdel (2714) 4 years ago

Don't bother with the MAGA trolls. We've had a President-elect after every administration turnover. With the exception of the 2000 race, which really was down to the wire in vote count and uncertainty till the very end, the term began to be applied literally the day after the election.

There was no fraud. This has been the most closely scrutinized election in history. But you can't reason with people who believe something because they want to believe it, and anyone or any institution that contradicts that belief is lying or part of some vast conspiracy. Psychologists call that a self-reinforcing delusion. No matter what they see or hear it only increases their conviction. Even if it flies in the face of their chosen narrative it still somehow proves them right. Fortunately we don't need those people to snap out of it. Biden will be inaugurated on Jan. 20th whether they're happy campers or not.

I picture the die hard MAGAs as coming from little population 300 towns where almost everyone is a big Trump fan, and not being able to comprehend how he could've lost. Take a road trip around the nation folks! You'll find more than enough of your fellow citizens absolutely despise the talking tangerine and want him gone. The numbers are there. You don't need fraud to explain the election results. Those of us who DO travel frequently to different parts of the country have been expecting this outcome for a long time. The pandemic was his last chance to shine. Had he handled it like the "wartime President" he said he wanted to be, he might've turned things around for himself.

I'm quite sure that voicing your opinion on a movie chatroom will make a huge difference.

[–] christomacin (4730) 4 years ago

The real Voltaire would be rolling in his grave if he knew this jackass was using his name as a handle.

[–] ThrillerTalk (1119) 4 years ago

Trump and his followers need to fuck off and get over it already. It's over.

[–] SpikeMike (470) 4 years ago

We're going to hear him referred to as the "fake" President for the next four years because these morons believe all the shit Trump has been shoveling their way.

[–] voltaire2121 (357) 4 years ago

No, you F off. It's civil war you, bastard. The dude hasn't even been sworn in yet and he is calling himself the President Elect, what kind of shlt show is this?

[–] christomacin (4730) 4 years ago

How the fuck old are you? This has been standard practice for our entire history.

[–] voltaire2121 (357) 4 years ago

No, it's not. It is highly irregular.

[–] christomacin (4730) 4 years ago

It's not "irregular" at all, you lying motherfucker.

[–] voltaire2121 (357) 4 years ago

Civil war, you bastard!

[–] christomacin (4730) 4 years ago

LOL... what a joke.

[–] ThrillerTalk (1119) 4 years ago

I'm not going anywhere. Lol at a civil war. Yall need to get off whatever you're smoking, stop worshipping that idiot who can't accept defeat and move on with your life. That truly says a lot about you if you want to try to start a war over this BS just because things haven't worked out in your favor.

Fact is there is absolutely No Evidence of Bidens lead having any cheating in it what so ever. Had it been the other way around with Trump in the lead you'd be doing exactly as you did in 2016. Bunch of hypocrites.

[–] elcamino (15540) 4 years ago

He is in a hurry to be president so you will buy his book in the short amount of time he has.

[–] Bubbathegut (18242) 4 years ago

He probably thinks he is the President. A 78 yr old grandpa running our Country, what can go wrong? lol

[–] maximmm (3408) 4 years ago

Seems to me like they'll pay Trump a huge sum of money to drop the lawsuits and go away quietly. Trump rep 'allies' are all turning against him - so he's got no choice but to accept the cash.

The big brother has spoken. Biden is a shoe in for Kamala el presidento.

[–] djangounlamed (1769) 4 years ago

who has to pay trump anything.

Every lawsuit was thrown out immediately and basically laughed at by the judges. conservative judges.

he lost. hes crying and having a tantrum. theres no conspiracies and big brother involved. it was an ass whooping

[–] maximmm (3408) 4 years ago

A part of me thinks that there's no way that people would ever have 2 horrid human beings/leaders like Clinton/Trump as their only viable options for the leadership of the country without the big brother involvement (4 years ago), but then..... I meet people in their 20's and early 30's and I think to myself..... it's a definite possibility. Young Americans are absolute morons, so you could well be right.

[–] AmeriGirl26 (15113) 4 years ago

Well, the media knows that the election was rigged in Biden's favor, so they were instructed to paint the image that he'd won, despite what the evidence says to the contrary. They were also told to silence anyone who disagreed or pointed out voter fraud. Remember that the CIA owns the media. These pressitutes don't do anything without their Democrap masters' say-so.

Take a look at the world leaders congratulating Biden. Many are from countries that we consider our enemies, or were countries that hated Trump calling them out for being free-loaders. They believed whatever the Communist News Network told their country's news services to report.

Biden's little more than a puppet. It's the one thing he learned well from his former boss in how to be the dummy on the lap of the Establishment. He'll say anything that he's told to; doesn't matter if it contradicts what he says later.

[–] djangounlamed (1769) 4 years ago

up the meds you racists pyscho

[–] voltaire2121 (357) 4 years ago

It was definitely rigged. I hope Trump fights him tooth and nail. Biden is definitely a puppet!!

[–] chrisjdel (2714) 4 years ago

Take a look at the world leaders congratulating Biden. Many are from countries that we consider our enemies ...

... He'll say anything that he's told to; doesn't matter if it contradicts what he says later.

What enemies are those? Canada? Germany? The UK? France? Japan? Australia? For some odd reason Vladimir Putin hasn't called to talk to him. Those sanctions he knows are coming may have something to do with that. Xi Jinping and Kim Jong-Un haven't called to talk or congratulate him either. So which adversary nations were you referring to?

You mean Biden says the opposite of what he said five minutes ago, then denies he ever said that other thing - even after someone reads back his previous statement and reminds him it's all on video? Oh wait ... that's Donald Trump. Never mind. 😎

[–] djangounlamed (1769) 4 years ago

you new to elections? this is how tis been done for decades and decades and decades and decades.

amazing how republicans will try and ignore decades of how they have seen things unfold to simp for trump and his tantrum. you guys are literally a cult

[–] christomacin (4730) 4 years ago

It's because they don't really give a flying fuck about America.
