He's keeping the money pouring in. That's what he does....he sucks money from people and will live high on the hog on their donations. THAT was tangible evidence....of what? When was the 'handoff' and what was supposed to have been on the USB? Why aren't they producing that evidence in court? What are they waiting for? https://news.yahoo.com/republican-us-judges-choose-the-constitution-over-trump-as-electionfraud-cases-keep-failing-211255403.html But 10 additional seats is not 100 million votes. Still waiting for the '100 million' quote. And who said he'd win in a landslide? Scaramucci? He's one of yours so you deal with his addleheadedness. Others? There are always folks who'll project so and so will win in a landslide. Few do. But >300 EC votes ain't shabby. Quit whining about poor widdle Trumpy. If he can dish it out, he can take it. If not...he can hit the road jack...oh wait, I guess he is hitting the road. IF Biden taunts the media, he does so at his own peril....we'll see how it pans out. But...maybe, if someone is powerful enough, they can taunt the media and get away with it. Maybe the media might even be afraid of him. Seems most media was NOT afraid of Trump because despite his constant wailing and whining...they went after him mercilessly. And...it likely cost him the election. So...I'll revise....IF you aren't powerful enough, taunt the media at your own peril. Since no presidential candidate has ever gotten close to 100 million votes nor has any ever been projected to, I'd say that's....hyperbole unless you can find a quote from a major source...ie not some nut on twitter or some comedian trying to be funny. LOL I'm sure some people's expected/hoped for one, there was no blue wave. What there was was a referendum on Trump...personally. Despite having what most people might say was a fairly successful presidency with...up 'til the pandemic...a good economy and success with many of his policies, it appears he will ultimately lose...and lose by a pretty good margin...not a close call at all. Trump brought this on himself. It's all his fault, personally. He should've won in a landslide from the standpoint of success as a Republican president....but he didn't. And yes, the media has been hassling him for 4 yrs But that's what one signs up for when one signs up for being president. Besides, it was totally his own doing. He had every opportunity to come to terms with the media and he failed...wasn't able to do it. At the 'off the record' meeting after the election, when the winner comes to terms with the media, instead of coming to terms with the rough and tumble of the campaign and putting it behind him, he laid into them. Fine, maybe they deserved it. But, and hopefully the next president will heed this advice, politicians taunt the media at their own peril. They don't have to reach the masses. It won't do any good reaching the masses if there was fraud...the masses don't decide what happens regarding selection of the president after election day. All these yoyos have to do is show it to the the courts, with lawyers and you know, that kind of stuff. Only people with inferiority complexes worry about whether some asshole concedes, I'm not expecting him to concede. It's more fun watching him squirm under the magnifying glass of 80 millions voters telling him they don't want no more of his years. But it would be fun watching him being escorted forcefully out of the white house after pitching a big fit once all the challenges are done and if it turns out the state legislatures follow the will of the voters. Your vote for the president may mean very little. It depends on the state you live in. The constitution doesn't say the president is elected by popular vote...or by a vote by the people at all. The electoral college elects presidents and states can appoint electors anyway they want to. It is merely convention that they tend to use the popular vote...some states apparently have that written into their laws..but the constitution doesn't demand it. I don't particularly like her looks, but note that it happens...a person's unique features are often why they're cast NOT because they are classically beautiful/handsome. Look at, say, Lee Marvin. IMHO, he's not traditionally handsome, yet he's gotten lots of parts. I mean, they gotta have ugly, grotesque, unusual looking people in movies just like regular or about average looking people. The electoral votes are supposed to reflect how the state voted...ie if, in PA, Trump got more votes than Biden, then all the PA electoral votes...I think it's 20, go for Trump and none for Biden. So the national popular vote isn't all that meaningful for who wins the presidential election....other than a talking point. "Last month, however, Trump announced plans to award nearly $13 billion in federal aid to help repair the island’s electrical and education infrastructure — a sharp reversal after Trump’s repeated comments about not wanting to provide more aid. " And now she's endorsing him...surprise surprise. She knows which side her bread is buttered on. She knows that if Biden wins, he won't be vindictive but if she DOES NOT endorse Trump and he wins, he'll be petty a heck and pull the plug on that money. I wouldn't put it past him to use govt money to get folks to do things for him for political or personal gain. OMG give it up and quit whining that they provided a cheap case. And yes...put me on ignore...wimp. Next time buy a gun with a better case. Not so wise were you? Why don't you ask those making a big deal of it? Probably. And I don't see being famous as synonymous with being...good/well liked/admired but just that more people know OF him and know what he says/does in public. But then, that's the perspective of someone from the US so I don't know what the billions who live in...for example...Africa/Russia/India/China/Southeast Asia know about/talk about. You're complaining to us about YOU buying a cheap gun cabinet? I'm not getting my hopes up...this sounds too much like 2016. I think there's a good chance the polls are wrong again and Trump will win...perhaps another EC vote while losing the popular vote. The reason I don't trust the polls is NOT just because of 2016, but because of the response to polling calls. In the 1990s 36% of those called would respond. Now, I read where it's only ~6%. It seems a lot of people are just tired of answering their phones and are often unwilling to answer polling calls. And I think this favors the right because older people...like me...are sick of callers invading our privacy and either just hang up or respond with nonsense/lies. And older people tend to be for Trump. I don't know who you think you're talking to...but I never thought it was a big deal. What do you mean? I assume what would happen is some states will make very stringent abortion laws where pregnancies can only be terminated to protect the life of the mother. But abortion will still be legal in other states where the states want it to be legal. Overturning Roe vs Wade AFAIK would not force all states to adopt the anti-abortion policies of some states. But remember that when Roe vs Wade was passed, it was passed by a court that was composed of 7 justices appointed by Republicans and 2 appointed by Democrats. Of the 7 who voted for RvW, 6 were Republican appointed justices and 1 was a Dem appointed justice. Of the two opposed, one was Dem appointed and one was Republican appointed. So I am not sure the SC will ever change that ruling. Despite many justices personal opinions about abortion, it just might be that in the end, they'll conclude the constitution doesn't protect the fetus but DOES protect the pregnant woman. Total? Don't be in too much despair. Remember that Obama flipped two seats...replacing justices that had been appointed by Republicans. So far...Trump has only replaced justices who themselves had been appointed by Republicans. Until now, Trump has not shifted the court while Obama shifted it two places to the left. Even with replacing RBG, he's still not done as much as Obama did. Also keep in mind that since ~1950, Republicans have appointed 2/3 of the justices and Democrats only 1/3, yet the right is always whining that if they could only get oooonnnnneeeeeee moooooorrrrrrreeeeeee judge, all would be right with their world, Roe vs Wade would be overturned, and Christianity would finally dominate the country.
