Funny how you expect the libs to go away and take their loss, but it was okay for your party to try and overthrow the govt 4 years ago... *rolls eyes*
Well, I admit it severely dislike Trump.... And in all honesty, I haven't even seen the Republican party produce a GOOD candidate since... 2012 when Romney ran? Since then, it's been Trump and a bunch of nobodies, basically.
I also think a lot of people just vote the same way no matter what. They don't help either. I don't think we're voting for a candidate so much as we're voting for who sold the best lies. Because at the end of the day, most presidents dont get anywhere near what they promised to do. And that doesn't help either.
I just think America needs to do better than the candidates we've had over the last... 20 years or so. God i'm old. :-P
Well there you have it. Our election system is hampered by people who refuse to vote. At the end of the day, though, it still doesn't change the fact that a majority of the country did NOT support him. Or Harris for that matter. Who knows how the election would have gone had everyone voted.
The point is that our elected officials are "the will of SOME people" rather than "the will of THE people." Don't you think it's pretty sad that, like 100% of the people bitch and moan about how much they dislike the country, but 30%, give or take, won't do anything about it? They have no right to complain about the choices voters make... But they still live under the choices everyone else makes just the same. So it's not like it doesn't effect them. It's just sad.
You clearly weren't reading very carefully... I'm saying that, given the fact that a full 1/3 of eligible voters chose NOT to vote means Trump got the will of essentially 1/3 of eligible voters78. mil/244mil if your math skills aren't the greatest. ;-)
There's roughly 244 million eligible voters. Trump got 78 million votes. So Trump won by getting 1 in 3 voters to vote for him. Think about that for a while... It'll come to you. ;-)
And yes, I know, those people who abstained or otherwise couldn't be bothered... It's their own fault for surrendering their voice. But my conclusion is still the same; Trump did NOT get anywhere NEAR what could be considered resounding support from the American people. Just those of us who got off the couch and voted.
I know YOU didn't say that... HE said that. Soooo are you willing to eat your words when he fails to live up to his hype for the 2nd time? I highly doubt it.
So given that Trump is going to deport millions of undocumented immigrants "on day one" :-P... Are you gonna call him a liar too when it doesnt happen? How about when he doesn't end the Ukraine war "in 24 hours"?
No, of course you aren't. You're going to make excuses for him like a good little brainwashed follower. And pretend it's more justified than Democrats defending their own in the same way.
Sheeple... baaaahhh....baaaaaaaaaahhhhhh :-P
Sooo another instance of "it's okay when my party does it, but not when "the other" does it?" Got it. ;-)
It's really a shame how a large portion of Americans have no shame for their disgusting behavior.
I don't think it's a terribly good idea to deploy troops on American soil... No matter who does it. Soldiers are essentially trained killers. Had that been done, it's very likely the body count would have risen dramatically... Which would NOT have benefited the country in terms of raising or lowering the overall tension and anger between the left and the right.
Violence only begets more violence.
Aw, you poor troll. Click.
He's got "bot" in the name... Even if it's not an actual bot, he's still a troll. So he might as well be.
Actually, I would tend to blame the outcome of this election on the estimated 90 million Americans who were eligible to vote but chose not to. You can't really say the will of the American people was done when almost 1 in 3 voters couldn't be bothered to give themselves a voice. The truth is that elections only tell you what percentage of people who actually voted, voted one way or the other.
TL;DR Election 2024 was decided by 2/3 of the voting public. Meaning Trump essentially won by getting 50-some percent of 2/3 of the votes cast... It's still a win, but it's by no means a landslide when you consider this: If you view non-votes as non-supportive of either candidate, then more people chose either Harris or NO ONE... Over your Orange Jesus. :-P
If he's soooooo popular, why would 1/3 of registered voters NOT vote for him?
If CINO was a thing, Trump would be it. Christian in name only. He's only pandering for their support. He doesn't give a crap about God or Jesus or the Bible. He cares about stealing every last dollar from the working man and giving it to the much more deserving 1%.... *shakes head*
Of course it was a Texas judge... Just another instance of the Right obstructing everything the Left does. Le sigh...
And you're the resident truth teller? :-p that's cute.
And January 6th proves the Right does the same thing... Oh, did you forget already? Yeah, your party is hypocritical. :-P
Our country would be better run by a ham sandwich than the last 2 (going on 3, if you count orange man twice) have over the last 8 years.
Hows about you "unite" at the bottom of Mauna Loa? ;-)
It only took him 4 f*cking years. :-P
He's literally making America into Idiocracy. He's America's real "Hector Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho" :-P
Prove me wrong. LOL
apparently you're unaware of people like Matt Gaetz? Jim Jordan? Dennis Hastert? All Republican congressmen who have been involved in recent sex scandals.
If you're basing your judgment on looks alone, sure, Chris Wright is bad... But I don't see you or any other MAGA types complaining about THEM?
Oh right, it's only despicable when the Dems do it. Got it. ;-)
I don't really feel like it's a fair fight... They're both ensemble comedies, but I feel like the comparison kinda ends there. The characters on this show are more co-workers than friends, with exceptions of course... But I dunno, there's definitely a less "close" relationship between most of the characters on Wings vs the characters in Friends. I can't even say for certain that the producers of this show were even going for a "friends" vibe here. I feel like it would be more apt to say that Wings' premise is more like, "what if Wings were like The Office (post-dated comparison but apt) but at an airport?"
I think they just had a full cast already, so they didn't want to overload it with more characters. Or maybe they simply didn't have, or want to devote, more money for more cast members.
