    why is Biden camp wanting to get to 270 and declare so fast if the above is above board.

    Because unlike trump they want to be accurate?

    Didn't a lot of the hardcore Trump fans here tell us that Trump, despite his rhetoric, would concede in the end and go graciously? Doesn't look like he will.

    Can I ask why you think Biden is the best man for the job ? Besides being able to beat Trump in the election, why do you think he's the best to lead America ? I've read his policy on his site, just interested in your view on his impending presidency.

    I never said Biden is the best for the job of Presidency, I think he was the best man to beat Trump. (He is still infinitely better suited to being President than Trump is mind)
    Trump would have just too easily gone to town on the 'socialism' angle with Sanders.
    Elizabeth Warren would have been bullied and name called relentlessly.
    Pete Bittigieg would have been attacked for being inexperienced plus, his non-tradition home life would have been held against him.

    Time will tell how Biden is as a leader, but I'm hoping he picks a good administration and then delegates appropriately.

    Another option is they don't see the Democrat party as a party for them or that they don't align close enough with their values and there is no where else for them to go in a two party system.

    For the most part, anyone who doesn't see the Democrats values aligning with theirs, is most likely a steadfast Republican, or they are staunchly conservative, which is as I suggested.

    Have all Trump's Irish online fans (because they don't exist in real life) started slinking away from this thread yet?

    ^^ See chaps, these are the stages of grief.

    First comes anger..

    We should show these guys some understanding. It's going to be a very tough time for many of them, because they felt so sure of what was going to happen tonight.

    Just remember, these guys are victims too. They were lied to by the media and their pollster friends and everyone else. It was a cruel trick played on unsuspecting citizens!

    Unfortunately reddit /r/Agedlikemilk is closed for 48hours, great contender here

    Was very unprofessional in the first debate, stepped over the line with some of his comments into partisanship in my view.

    Lady in second debate was much better.

    Trump is not a likeable person. He has a bad mouth on him and many people can see he's a bad leader. His stance on covid was atrocious and not so long ago coming out and telling his people that covid is nothing to be feared. That message travelled across the world and to be quite honest, it's very dangerous. Governments the world over was trying to control the spread of this novel coronavirus and for very good reason, and Trumps message would have given many people a license to ignore guidelines on isolation and testing and other public health measures.

    He's not a good person and he only really cares about himself. He's obnoxious and arrogant and he has a bad, filthy mouth on him. Definitely not something you would want to see in a leader of a country.

    It's exciting because so many people the world over wants to see him out. For a few days it was very close between the two of them.

    it was blatantly obvious from wed morning that he was screwed that was what i mean by not exciting.

    no one could have controlled trump that night, he was an absolute disgrace.

    Is there any indication as to when the white smoke will rise? Heaven knows we've had a lot of black smoke coming from Trumps gob these past few days.

    Thats all true, and a pretty sad indictment of large swathes of the American public that they could actively support him.

    Trump supporters in this thread seem to be consistent with Trump in making claims that have no evidence

    It's like they plain just don't understand the concept


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,784 ✭✭✭froog


    ok so trump won't be able to find much if any evidence for election fraud. so his strategy if he persists will have to be to try and get the supreme court to rule all mail in votes across the country be discounted as unconstitutional. what are the chances they rule in his favour?

    From Twitter..

    “Fox News is instructing its talent not to call Joe Biden the "President-elect" when the network calls the race”

    Ridiculous stuff...

    I think there was a small risk in some areas of America, for the election results to turn in favour for a Trump win.

    People talking down Biden’s charisma.

    Who was the person who pushed mail-in voting from the very beginning of this campaign?

    That’s charisma. That’s appealing to a base. Whether people voted against Trump or for Biden, either way they listened to Biden.

    Leadership.

    I didn't say it did. From what I've seen though, he's not very articulate, not a great speaker but I don't know what he's like on a personal level.

    We don't have a fair idea, we'll never know. The record levels of voting in this election indicates that it was more than just voting for a preferred candidate.

    I think for someone with a lifelong stutter, Biden speaks well enough.

    His Irish family say he is a lovely person, so who are we to question this?

    I disagree I think many would happily not vote republican but the Dems don't give them a reason to lend them their vote, but sure hows ever not really something either of us can prove outright.

    talk is that trump is being fed all the fraud lies by his close yes men, but the side of the camp that know he's lost are scared to tell him and they are looking at either ivanka or kushner to talk him down. oh to be a fly on the wall there.

    CNN reporting
    In conversations with allies in recent days, President Trump has said he has no intention to concede the election to Joe Biden, even if his path to a second term in office is effectively blocked by losses in places like Georgia and Pennsylvania.

    Aides, including his chief of staff Mark Meadows, have not attempted to bring Trump to terms of what’s happening and have instead fed his baseless claim that the election is being stolen from him.

    Trump’s allies have grown concerned that someone is going to have to reckon with the President that his time in office is potentially coming to an end, though they have not decided who should be the one to do it. There has been talk of potentially Jared Kushner or Ivanka Trump doing so, sources said.

    I would love to be there when they break it to him that he will no longer be President.
