    CNN have had an agenda against Trump for years and have constantly framed the narrative against him.
    Sure he is a narcisstic, arrogant ,obnoxious oaf who doesnt do himself any favours with his aloof behaviour but CNN portray everything he does in a negative way.
    They aren't objective.

    Couldn't help but be reminded of that time Abe Simpson was defending Homer
    "My Homer is not a Communist. He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, a Communist, but he is NOT a porn star!" :pac:

    Tell you what though in all seriousness, CNN have been very good this election. Super coverage and plenty of time taken to explain things to people.

    Bush didn't lose that election........


    Republicans did though.

    Well CNN have been trying their utmost best to tarnish Trump for the last 4 years so no doubt they will be delighted.
    They stopped being a news channel many years ago .

    Trump tarnished himself by being Trump. He's a terrible human being, a failure as a businessman and like everything he ever touches, he's soon to be a failed politician.

    Tucker is on now, he's lambasting the media. THE MEDIA.

    After the speech that Trump just made? The man is beyond ridiculous.

    He is one of the absolute worst I have ever seen and he is a clever guy, he knows exactly what he's at. I think he sees himself as the heir to Rush when he finally goes down to meet his maker.

    Yep. Have never once heard him take responsibility for any failing no matter how big or small. It's always someone else's fault or some wrongdoing.

    Exactly what's going on.

    In the speech he almost said "I'm gonna lose" but corrected himself to "doing not so good" at the last second

    Well he certainly touched you. That's for sure.

    The thing about Trump supporters is they're just pure anti-craic. I'd much rather hang out with the Biden gang:

    I think I saw that blonde lady on a bar in Philly some years ago. I don't remember too much, but there were $1 bills involved...

    You wonder? Seems blatantly obvious that's what is going on. He's an egomaniac and a sore loser.

    Well with Trump, the other scenario is that he is so genuinely idiotic to be confused why his initial lead has been eroded by mail-in ballots.

    Technically another day, so it's time for today's segment of "there's always a tweet"

    When they call GA for Biden, they have to call the Presidency, unless they reverse their call for AZ.

    I don't think GA will be officially called for a few days anyway, since it's so close, and there's still a tonne of provisional votes and a few thousand military votes yet to be included.

    I know it probably sounded funny in your head, and given who impresses you that is for sure no surprise, but I want to express my appreciation to you for having the gumption to stick around and continue to.....well, I'm not sure what exactly you are actually doing...but fair play for it. With the amount of you who shrunk away after blowing their load too early its good to see some of you with a bit of commitment.

    I wonder is it violence he's trying to incite or rather is he trying to tarnish Biden's presidency before it's even begun?

    Possibly both,. delegitimizing his presidency might be a driving factor and inciting violence knowing the support base will be a by-factor.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,153 ✭✭✭✭Exclamation Marc



    This was expected from Pima.

    Apache County just corrected it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,193 ✭✭✭✭StringerBell



    Again, not sure it is a surprise to anyone in the know, the Biden camp said they expected that from the batch that was due?

    CNN website is not hard to find.:D

    Feel pretty stupid not checking that first. I assumed it might be geo-blocked


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,295 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    CNN just said Trump has a lot of power, if he loses he'll surely run again in 4 years.
    I never knew he could .


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,810 ✭✭✭✭Kermit.de.frog


    I think Arizona will go to Trump now.

    It won't matter. Biden to take lead in PA shortly and will probably get Georgia by around 3000 votes.

    CNN call him out on his bull****.

    That is exactly what every news network should have been doing. If the most powerful man in the country lies or does/says something ridiculous, then media organisations should be all over him.

    This ‘fake news’ bollocks wouldn’t have been a thing if Trump’s thick supporters didn’t buy into it.

    CNN spent the first 2 years refusing to say he was lying, trying to be circumspect..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,528 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    What Trump should be saying
    vvv





    Showing class in defeat

    That was actually a good speech.

    I wouldn't call it a defeat though as it didn't involve him and Obama was fully expected to win.

    And in case you're so inclined, you can watch Fox News here;

    Apache County gives 1500 back to Biden in Arizona.

    If Jim Acosta spoke like he did this evening a week a go he would have been barred from the WH.

    Now Trump will lose they are not afraid anymore.

    Yes, he can, Grover Cleveland did it once before. Even if he's in prison, he could, remarkably.

    You have got to love the names of those Arizona counties, Mohave, Cochise, Navajo, Apache. Feels like an old John Wayne B movie.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,145 ✭✭✭letowski



    It's a setback but not fatal. It might be a signal at what is going to happen in Maricopa, which will have a batch released in about 40 minutes. I think if Biden holds out at 45% he will be OK but only just. Trump needs about 60% to win in AZ.

    Poor effort. Try some covfefe and a hamberder as you may be tired from all the bigly winning.

    Biden 5837
    Trump 2863

    Pima County wasn't expected to go Trump's way. But Biden has overperformed in Apache County.
