    When Trump looses, at least we won't have to suffer the incessant cries of fake news and MSM at every little thing uttered that might be said against Trump.

    He won't shut up about it for years!

    The late night talk shows MAY have him on for ratings.

    Hillary did a great job arming Syrian rebels. Another report out showing Assad not responsible for the infamous attack. Why not decent candidates like Klobuchar or Sanders?

    They represented too much change, too fast.

    This too shall pass.

    CNN

    The John King show is compelling. The man is a machine.

    His energy is unreal. I think he started at 5pm and 7 and a half hours later and his tempo is still as high. Dunno how he does it! The man is a legend. And this is day 2!

    Also Bidens tax plans will keep multinationals here so win win.

    There is no leftist media, it's a liberal centrist media. and I sort of agree, now that trump is out of office they will go back to brunch and ignore all that terrible things happening in america and let the working class suffer as per usual as if nothing changed

    Shambolic behaviour by Trump. I suspect even most Republicans want him to just get a grip and admit defeat.

    At the end of the day despite defeat, this hasn't been a bad election for them. They've held the Senate (against the odds), I believe they've made gains in the House, and they've gone to the wire with a deeply unpopular candidate in Trump even though the polls were predicting a massacre.

    This could have been a disaster for them if they'd lost the Senate as well as the Whitehouse.

    Plus I don't think Biden lasts the full term, so Harris will be President and she was soundly rejected by the base in the primaries.

    Republicans should be (and I suspect want to be) putting the Trump era firmly behind them and planning for a 2024 race where I suspect they'll have a strong chance.

    Probability is that the blue candidate will either be an 81 year old Biden who would be dribbling in his bib, or Kamela Harris who has done nothing thus far to indicate that she can win any popularity contest after falling flat in the primaries.

    I think even Mike Pence would win that fight and he's a personality vacuum.

    Big Donny needs to lower the rethoric a bit. I think we all feel something dodgy went on, the scale of it is unclear.

    I think he's best off proving it (if it is true to be fraudulent) when he's not president. If it was blatant as tens of thousands of votes being added in to help Biden, somebody is going to talk. Maybe it's not true, maybe Biden did win "cleanly" but Trump has to keep up it up that the full arm of the media and Big tech skewed how people voted. Which is true.

    The Democrats are a dumpster fire. They will murder each other over the next 2 years. The Biden/Harris Regime will be a lame duck after the next set of senate and Congress elections. He can waltz back into the White House in 4 Years with minimum fuss. His support still strong, feeling wronged. The democrats fighting their own civil war and ending up with a minority supported candidate (like trump was himself to be fair).

    All he has to do is hand the rope to the democratic party to hang themselves for at least a decade. But he has to go with some grace.

    Sadly true.

    Hopefully he'll be facing trial, or better still (and more likely) he will disappear to some 'safe' country. He will escape justice but I think it's worth it for the greater good of not having to listen to his soul destroying poisonous sh!t.
    The best was to deal with narcisisim is to ignore it completely. Not indulge it with tweets, memes, airtime and a presidency ffs.

    Rumor on FB: "Fun fact: the district in Nebraska that Dems flipped is the one where people got hypothermia because Trump’s campaign never brought them home. If we win NV, we hit 270. This one electoral vote made it possible." I haven't fact checked this, Nebraskas system (And Maines) is weird

    Lol, I can totally see that happening too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 589 ✭✭✭vafankillar


    so going from 88% report to 89% reporting pennslyvania went from

    Trump 51.5% -> 51.3%
    Biden 47.3% -> 47.6%

    i'm not good enough at maths to pretend to be able to work that out, but if each percentage is similar, which it should be with mail in votes, it's biden taking the state for sure right

    I dont think the blue-collar areas in the rust belt voted him for nothing. Look it up for yourself

    Ive seen features on BBC or ITV news in the past where they have visited small towns in middle America where there was previously a strong steel industry until it was closed resulting in huge job losses and decline in that town and more or less outsourced to China. Trump made the industries some way competitive. Biden proposed to raise the corporate tax rate to 28 percent. How is that going to entice companies to make their goods in the US?

    And how many of these steel factories or other industries have reopened because of Trump?

    Many people in the UK voted for Brexit and still support it, in the expectation that it's going to bring economic benefits to previously industrial areas.

    The fact that it hasn't, and won't, means that a lot of Brexit supporters have been conned.

    The fact that people in the rust-belt supported Trump doesn't mean he's done anything for them.

    Most honest and true post on this thread. Would not be surprised to see Tucker Carlson run in 2024 and win

    According to Associated Press Biden is 264 and only needs Nevada. All I can think of is Hillary Clinton must feel like aa bit of an eejit.

    Hillary really fucked up in a number of ways:

    - didn’t visit any of the battleground states after the primaries
    - the “basket of deplorables” comment. It’s never good to be contemptuous of the electorate. It marked her out as an elitist. Very alienating.

    I've purposely stayed out of the loop

    What is he possibly facing trial for?

    I think she also assumed she had the female vote...

    pee'd on some hookers in Russia apparently.

    if there was actual dirt on trump they would have found it 3 years ago, it's all baloney

    How? They're not state-owned, they're privately owned. Unless the USA imposes sanctions on Ireland, US companies can set up in Ireland as they please.

    I mean like will be lower corporation tax in America to where it’s more expensive to be here in Ireland than America .

    Donnie doing anything with grace, that'll be the day.

    Does it occur to you that Trump might be making false claims?

    He did this repeatedly in 2016, claiming that the election was rigged. I remember him being asked "but what if he won", to which he replied "if I win, it wasn't rigged".

    It was rigged in 2016 and 2020 too, at least as far as the polls and predictions go.
