Re: Biden Probable Winner according to FOX News

Are you sure that's what it's about? Trump has successfully "united the right", I'd say. A very large swath of Republicans are simply fiscal republicans. The problem is, fiscal republicans don't have the numbers to reach their objectives. To get the numbers, you need a president who is king of publ...

Re: Biden Probable Winner according to FOX News

I am shocked and dismayed by the fact that a 55% majority of my fellow whites voted for Trump, and heartbroken about what that reveals about how much latent racial and ethnic bigotry still exists in my country. Make no mistake about it, Trump's success was due in large part to a blatant and unapolog...

Per 538, GA Secretary of State says 122K left to count. Biden would need about 66% of those to win.
How realistic is the hope that he will get that much?

Re: 2020 Election Night

Gunnar, No. Subjenius is legitimately stupid. That’s why I’ve pared down my responses to him. He only understands: ——o O o—— - Doc Probably so, and he obviously thinks that all of us are the stupid ones. He is an outstanding, textbook example of the Dunning Kruger effect, as much as or, perhaps, ev...

Re: 2020 Election Night

That won't happen, because, as a moron, he refuses to learn (mostly out of an inability to learn, due to his ongoing status as a moron). Either that, or he is every bit as dishonest and immoral as Trump and those who enable him. With the evidence of Trump's dishonesty and corruption as abundant and...

Re: 2020 Election Night

There is still a fair to middling chance that Biden will win the presidency, when all the votes are finally counted, but if the Democrats fail to flip the Senate to a Democrat majority, our democracy is still in jeopardy, especially considering the fact that McConnell won reelection to another term...

Re: Trump ended COVID19

It occurs to me that the right wing complaint that the left calls them stupid is a little bit like Trump's complaint that testing exposes COVID cases. Testing for COVID points out cases of COVID. The GOP base are idiots (those cases abundantly exist), but they just don't want you to point it out. S...

Re: 2020 Election Night

Biden underperformed big time in Miami, and they're attributing this to the large Cuban community who bought into the Trump campaign's fear mongering tactics about Biden-Harris being closet communists. I'm shocked that Georgia is still in play. It's sad how often the mere unsupported accusation of ...

Re: 2020 Election Night

It is also worth considering that for a lot of people they don't think it matters who the president is, they just live their lives. It is often hard for us to view the implications of our elected officials in our day-to-day lives, this makes change even more difficult. My wife is one who seems to f...

The most depressing thing about the results so far is that it's close. There are still massive numbers of idiots in this country.
I feel the same way. It is scandalous how many people somehow fail to see how obviously dishonest, ignorant and corrupt Trump is.
