2020 Presidential Race

[WBO]

Elections need to be reformed. There should be little to no human interaction of the vote count. Could be done through computer offline. Hard drives could be guarded by armed guards. Taken to an offline super computer and counted in 15 min. No more ********.

The Russians just successfully hacked the US government at the highest levels and your response is to go to online voting?

BTW, the Constitution says that the individual states control the method of voting in each state. So to have a uniform, nationally mandated voting system, you have to amend the Constitution.

That raises a question: I thought all you conservatives believe in state's rights. That's what you've been saying since Jim Crow. What gives with the attempt to delegitimize the individual state administration of the voting process?

You can't read the difference between offline and online? Since all states vote in a presidential election it should most likely be handled federally. I guess if you want to cheat in your state for the down ballot, continue cheating.

This "election" thread has morphed into one largely comprised of dueling conspiracy theories by Trumpsters.

Donnie's gaslighting campaign is complete.

The good news is the adults will be back in charge on January 20th.

And there are people in this forum who are so dumb, they're continuing to proudly support Trump EVEN after
hearing the most recent audio tapes

Seems like there are really only a handful of very vocal (and very dumb) people here that continue to blindly pound the table.

As Trump said, he could shoot somebody on 5th Avenue and get away with it. Some people are simply sheep that need to be led to slaughter... they simply don't know any better.

What was on the audio tapes that would make supporters not support him?

That's what makes all this nonsense about "we need to restore faith in our elections" talk so laughable. There was NEVER going to be a scenario where Trump lost gracefully. He was always going to scream it was rigged and demand his sycophants do the same. They could have counted the votes out loud, one by one, as they were cast, and he would just push some other wild conspiracy theory.

You have to dump the economist part or you won't find a guy who puts the country first. You only have to look two posts down for the reason ... according to our AF golfer

"I like your view towards the economic strategy, BUT it must also be accompanied by a keen international approach"

That puts us right back into globalism which isn't country first. Economists are generally people steeped in pseudoscience who know less than they think they do.

Mkay, so here's how things work: We are part of the global economy. Unlike Trump's farcical blabbering, we're not in control of it, nor does the absurd concept of "country first" (i.e. tariff protectionism, etc.) work.

And, yes, economists know far more about this than you ever will.

Precisely. And we're still waiting for the answer from the resident sheeple to the standing obvious question: Going into the 2016 election, Donald said it was "rigged". Why didn't they support challenging the results then?

In reality, of course, Trump and his mindless minions know he lost. He's a snake oil salesman, and his followers enjoy sucking up his magic juice. It's what they do. By and large, Trumpsters are under-educated rednecks that simply don't know any better.

READ: JUST. DUMB. PEOPLE.

The core of America has rejected Trumpism. His brief tenure as President will be historically viewed as an utter failure.

Not sure he could say anything to change the mind of followers who believe in Lizard people and feed constantly on the likes of Q, Beck, Alex Jones and foxnews.

I made the mistake of trying to understand the logic here last spring, in the middle of a job hunt and final push of my dissertation, and ended up cracking under the pressure. Had to take several months off to recenter myself because I couldn't figure out how intelligent people could be so crass, cruel, and dismissive.

Once you stop taking anything they say seriously, it's a lot more fun. This section is either a LARP, or half of these guys are already on an fbi watch list.

Just find the people you can argue with for fun and still want to have beer with afterwards. You'll be much happier.

Sounds like you just need more medications and time off if you really crack because of a message board it seems like you are the one of the ones that most should not take seriously. I mean, instead of being condescending towards those with different views than yourself.

Biden's a healer. It's time for those who supported Mr Trump to put aside those feelings and get on board the Biden train.

And monkeys are flying outa my butt

The call was ill advised.

The SOS leaking the call 2 days before an election was straight dumbass.

Trump set himself up for that by trying to destroy his reputation via twitter.

 

[tnmarktx]

I listened to the whole thing. I told you that people are delusional if they think that listening to that call would make people stop supporting him. He went full on Trump on those guys. Did anyone catch the part about Trump lawyers had been requesting information that the GA SOS was obstructing, even when given an option that wouldn't violate state laws?

My goodness

The people who are continuing to support him are the delusional ones

I was in a very bad place this past spring. I have not shared all of what was going on, and there's only a few people here I'd trust with it. Things are much better now.

As for the condescension, I suck at conveying nuance in text. That's part of it. I'm also not part of the political ingroup here - or, frankly, most of the out groups - and have to fight twice as hard for a seat at the table. If you don't want anyone to dissent or fight for their viewpoint, then ask Freak to rename this subforum "Right Wing Pep Rally" and remove all pretense that anyone else is welcome.

Clearly nothing. I assume the confederacy of dunces would follow him off a bridge if he told you to.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

LOL ..... Why stop now after 4 long years of failure after failure w/the making-up of crimes & the made-up daily lies that their President Trump has done any kind or type of crime. Each week the Democrats try & come up again with anything falsified claims that just might stick. Democrats make up fantasy crimes to pin on their President Trump because he is not being controlled by the lunatic left. Lefty lunatic Democrats haven't found any thing yet on their President Trump..... keep trying though.

Lol, this section on this forum couldn't be described as anything close to a "Right Wing Pep Rally". I've been all over this country from the east coast to the west, this section on this forum is to the left of most people I've met in California.
