    This is the guy who was supposed to be leading Trump's legal efforts.

    Are they trying to convince themselves?

    They don't even have a hope, but they will still keep sending out those begging emails looking for donations, a large percentage of which will help pay for Trumps debts.

    Thats all thats going on here, he will push the grift for as long as possible to get gullible fools to give him their hard earned money.

    It's hard for me to imagine Trump simply conceding. I mean, I hope I'm wrong on that, but so far he's been pretty adamant that things are rigged against him. He seems to have boxed himself into a corner regarding a concession.

    The only way I imagine him conceding is by saying that he concedes, but he's only doing so in order to maintain domestic peace. He'll maintain that the election was corrupt, and that this is the only way Biden could have beaten him. He will continue to work for the people who voted for him as a political activist to ensure that such a coup never happens again, i.e. when he runs again in 2024. So enjoy it while it lasts, Sleepy Joe, but he'll be back.

    In other words, he'll try to take everyone down with him and give himself a moral victory, at least in the mind of himself and his supporters.

    I thought you said he didn't write his own tweets?

    If true why would you claim that a ghost written account has any accuracy?

    Three of the four swing districts went to progressives in slight Dem to moderate republicans district's. These were the ones I was referencing. The Dems thought there'd be a blue wave this election and fluffed their lines. There's some chat that the campaigns the people who lost their seats or nearly lost their seats ran crap campaigns with regards spending money on adds..

    Not even going to get into the far left.

    Regards Bernie, the wrong speaker of his message he's looking to get across (I'm a Bernie fan I accept his flaws) who wants to listen to an old man rabble rousing at you all the while pointing his finger? The US has just had 3 and a bit years of the other guy rabble rousing at the left the media and inflaming his base that the other side is against them is their enemy type nonsense.

    I'll take Joe in this instance, the progressives lacked a good speaker ATM in time, was I disappointed Bernie lost, hell yeah, looking back I can see why people went for the safe option in this moment. That in no way implies the base is not progressive.

    And plenty of moderates also held their seats where they likely wouldn't have if they were progressive candidates. I don't see how going more progressive would help them have kept Oklahoma, Southern Florida, or Iowa.

    There is a lot of finger pointing going on. Sure there are likely justified complaints about how some campaigns were run but similarly you can't ignore how socialism, defund the police etc etc hurt candidates in red or purple districts.

    I think it is overconfident to believe a blue wave was likely this year. When you take into account headwinds it was a pipedream that set expectations way too high.

    On progressiveness, in the recent history the party has not been progressive so I need to see evidence of this outside of heavily blue areas for me to believe it. Claims otherwise dont seem in any way justified, as when each time the wider party has had that option they have not gone for it.

    What does that even mean?

    "Threshold Identification of Ballots"?

    Hopefully better than the lawsuit that didn't even make it to a hearing in Michigan earlier on.

    The guy they had at the press conference wouldn't think so. They do appear to be the bogey man for trump supporters however.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,339 ✭✭✭✭jimmycrackcorm


    I think you could put a dog up against Donald and the dog would of won out. Joe didn't really have to do or say or promise a whole lot.. Donald fired up people to vote against him, the best thing he did in his near 4 years.

    The grassroots are progressives went out and mobilised people, there are report of a woman (her name escapes me atm) and others around her got 800,000 new people engaged in voting in Georgia, that is crazy even more crazy then people thinking the country of Georgia is in the US lol..

    Trump got 4 million extra votes this time around so it wasn't going to be easy.

    I'd assume the threshold for identification, can each ballot be traced back to an individual?
    Ours can't, there all anonymous?

    Doesn't appear to be a whole lot going on at the moment. They filed an incomplete suit in Michigan earlier and have a case in Arizona in relation to the sharpie conspiracy. Nearly everything else they've tried have already been thrown out.

    Something like nine of them have already been thrown out.

    Another media weakpoint - making a song and dance about the cases being announced, barely noticing when they're laughed out of court.

    Who knows, maybe they received X number of ballots and some how processed Y number of ballots.

    I think in most states mail in ballots are tracked, so one can actually see if they received and processed the vote.

    Since most have come out already and said they don't see any case for fraud assuming some basic checks like that were done.

    Why do you think they haven't produced any evidence so far? None...

    Another one, it was Georgia earlier apparently.
    I know that it's a stereotype that the yanks aren't great at geography but this is ridiculous.

    Maybe it is like the senate here, where you have envelopes within envelopes and you have to sign the outer ones.

    Trump really does attract the best and brightest.

    And with every tweet more gullible fools will donate to pay his campaign’s debts and whatever else he can siphon off.

    Yep. It takes time to look "strongly" at something. It's tiring too looking strongly at things for long periods of time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,277 ✭✭✭km991148


    Or they know something we don't.

    That Trump is actually old Mr Smith from the county hardware store. Wearing a rubber mask like the big reveal at the end of scooby doo cartoons?

    Maybe that's why they choose THAT four seasons??

    That's about the only thing I'll find less ridiculous than all the bs around.

    They're trying to book the Hilton for a press conference.
