Is it the fact they are retired Generals or the number being 120 that you opt to give this credibility?

Have you checked up on who these 120 actually are? What their history is and what their qualifications are to give them any ability to deem an election as fraudulent or not? Not sure how being a General qualifies one for making a judgment on election security.

I vaguely remember 200 plus retired generals and admirals endorsing Biden before the election. Some had served under Trump. I wonder, do they have more or less credibility than the 120?

A major arterial bridge near Memphis on the Mississippi River has suffered a critical failure. I guess Trump should have made good on that infrastructure bill.

I don't think any of us truly believe the GOP will split in a meaningful way, but its pure conjecture to hypothesize about the Democrats while all this is going on.

If what you want is a right leaning centrist party to emerge, then that is more likely to come from a GOP split with the likes of Cheney and Romney being involved than it is to be left over from the socialist wing of the Democratic party falling away. At least that is where all the evidence is at this point.

Leading left wing members of the Democratic party, Sanders and AOC seem very much to be moving in the direction of trying to work with the more conservative members of their own party to find a way to make progress then they are to split off to the side.

The Democrats are a right leaning centrist party!

I know. Why would another party that was ideologically aligned with the Democrats be born from the GOP? The Democrats already fill that space.

The only thing that is making the USA a laughing stock is cry babies who can't accept their dear incompetent, racist leader lost.

Nope.

"Other countries’ opinions of the U.S. have improved by nine points on average since President Joe Biden took office—and in many cases by double digits—a new Morning Consult poll finds, as the Democratic president appears to have noticeably improved the U.S.’s global standing in his first 100 days after it eroded under President Donald Trump."

On the contrary, most intelligent people around the world would laugh at a bunch of conspiracy theorists who refuse to accept reality.

Right, so its the fact that it is the number of them.

Have you checked out how many retired generals there are? What % this covers? What qualifications they have to opine on voting systems?

"The only positive sign," added Golby, "is that most of the retired officers who signed this letter have been out of the military for almost two decades, and that no recent retirees joined this shameful effort to use their rank and the military's reputation for such a gross and blatant partisan attack."

Mullen also pointed out that no retired four-stars signed it and only a handful of three-stars. "It's not very senior," he said. "In our world it's not very significant in terms of people."

Do you not think he's done a great job so far? I certainly do.

I don't think it matters to people at all. What matters is what's been done and there's a hell if a lot of good being done.

Look, if someone still really believes that the election was stolen and starts off their argument with that despite all the real world evidence, court cases, audits (most conducted by the GOP themselves) all saying that it was one of the safest elections ever, then that person has mental health issues and they are unlikely to hold a rational opinion on a number of subjects.

This is unfortunate but shows how easily some people can be led by a conman and a grifter. The hope is that the overwhelming evidence will snap them out of it, but instead there seems to be a digging in because they don't want to admit they were wrong, mainly out of embarrassment it seems.

That is what makes the USA a laughing stock, not a competent president doing their work and getting on with their agenda, if you think that any other country thinks that the USA is more of a laughing stock without trump at the helm then you clearly are not holding a rational viewpoint of the situation.

The worst thing was how easily manipulated he was, Jong Un had him spinning on his little figure, Putin might as well have dropped the pretence and introduced him as his puppet, cheeky trump. Those countries won't like Biden being in charge, that's a good thing.

More than 200 generals endorsed Biden, including a number of 4*s and recently retired generals so by my maths that means Biden wins.

Can't argue with that. It's science.

The sad reality is multiple governments local and national from both sides have ignored infrastructure because Americans see taxes as such a bad thing and don’t want to pay for things that they don’t physically own

biko

In short
Generals that endorse Biden = good boys.
Generals that don't endorse Biden = conspiracy nuts.

Fixing roads is obviously socialism. Only poor people need to drive to different places. If you're rich enough you just fly everywhere. If you can't afford to that, it's your own fault.

Hopefully Biden's infrastructure bill will sort some stuff like that crack out.
It looks good on paper, so far.

If they're claiming Biden didn't win the election and pushing a nonsense senility claim, that's a bunch of conspiracy nuts. Neither claim is proven to even the smallest degree. Do you agree with both statements?

From the letter.

“Without fair and honest elections that accurately reflect the ‘will of the people’ our Constitutional Republic is lost. Election integrity demands insuring there is one legal vote cast and counted per citizen,” the letter reads before going on to blast critics of voter ID laws as engaging in a “tyrannical intimidation tactic.”

Yup, they’re conspiracy nuts.

Imagine giving validation to people who won’t accept democracy.

You're missing the point. Biko goes looking for headlines to fulfill a preconceived theory and ignores the actual facts contained within their 'proof', that's how critical thinking works!!!

Yes, he really did squander the cooperation and goodwill the Republicans extended to him from day one.
