It's easy to forget that Trump actually increased his base, a left winger wouldn't have taken a single vote from this cohort. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NJS 774 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 I love the way there's this idea that Trump hijacked a decent party and corrupted it. Nixon, Reagan and Bush Sr were all horrible cunts and Bush Jr was a useful idiot puppet who was more than happy to just about steal an election. It's like arguing Johnson has turned the tories into cunts. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rayvin 1,321 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 There's absolutely no chance a left winger could have won this election. We barely scraped over the line with the blandest centrist I've ever seen. However, a left winger would have won the last one. I'm incredibly pleased that Biden is winning this, I'm pleased for what it means for climate change, Brexit, and international/political norms in general. But I don't think that this particular fight is over, and the centre is going to have to very quickly come up with something more coherent and viable than "not trump" if we're going to see off this threat next time out. 4 years doesn't feel that far off. Good luck to them though, I hope they manage it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rayvin 1,321 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 (edited) As icing on the cake to all this, apparently it's quite likely that when Trump leaves office, and therefore ceases to be a person of importance, Twitter is going to ban his ass Edited November 6, 2020 by Rayvin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Gloom 2,946 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 It’s great that Twitter is taking editorial responsibility as a publisher of content. Shame it’s 4-5 years too late 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But what we’re seeing from him now is beyond the pale I’m not having a go at you, as we’re basically saying the same thing, but I do disagree with the last bit- it’s not beyond the pale, it’s entirely in keeping with his entire Presidency. He’s got over 25 sexual assault allegations against him, paid off a porn star and lied about it, hasn’t paid taxes, called his country’s dead soldiers “losers”, put immigrant children in concrete cages, sided with his boss Putin over his Western allies, etc etc etc… there’s a whole page of other shit against him. Any single one of the above would have sunk a Democrat candidate, yet the Republicans have backed him and the country is evidently 50/50. The “good” Republicans who have kept quiet until now are as much to blame as the likes of McConnell. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You get the impression that the Republicans would back a literal Grand Wizard of the KKK if it won them the Whitehouse. I wonder what's next for Trump? There are loads of civil and criminal charges outstanding on him, aren't there? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This Stacey Abrams, who lost the Governor race due to voter suppression a couple of years ago, has spent the last two years registering 800k Democrats. She has basically done this singlehandedly. That "singlehandedly" is not hyperbole. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Howay 2,189 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 Rappaport is always good value like. I think he especially pisses off the Trumpers as he hits back at them in the same aggressive, insulting manner they usually try to attack people with. I also fucking love when all the republicans talk about respecting the office of the president whenever someone insults Trump. I saw it after Chris Evans (the Captain America one) called Trump a walking toilet on twitter, just tons of “you should respect the president of the United States” coming from the same group of people that were basically saying they wanted to lynch Obama’s 13 year old daughter, and suggesting he wasn’t born in America ffs, total bunch of fucking snowflakes Trumps base tbh. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Toonpack 172 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 So if these ballots are all dodgy, given the Senate and House votes are all on the same ballot form, why the MAGA's not demanding a re-run of everything ??????? C'mon sleepy Joe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
