    Ah now come on, that's just pure lies. Heads on a pike is a well-known political phrase. You may not like it but it's well established. Same with "heads will roll". You can't claim only the right lie when you see lies like this.

    Calls for violence also seems a major stretch.

    Defending Steve Bannon. That's low. And it was quite clear what he meant.

    Saying Biden has dementia gets you banned but saying the following gets you lots of likes .:confused:

    As someone who suffers from MH difficulties, I also do suffer from stress induced manic episodes.

    I think it was glaringly obvious my post was actually a concern for welfare and shock and disbelief that not one person, who is supposed to care for him, has actually stepped in and done something.

    My post was in no way a slight on him, or attempting to use a MH to slate him in anyway.

    I don't like the man, I never have liked him, however his behaviour over the last few hours is of concern and I know if and when I exhibit similar behaviour, my family and friends ring a GP immediately, to be Frank, I think anyone's would

    Olberman needs to have another glass of wine, or one less?

    It’s quite fûcking unbelievable what’s going on there it’s like something out of a Hollywood movie..

    I watched a few minutes ago, a live cross to a BBC reporter in Las Vegas saying he had taken a look at a Trump Rally preparing to get underway and said the mood was angry and there were people with guns and that his supporters fully believed the election was being stolen from them and that there are lots of illegal votes being used to disenfranchise them.

    I think there is every chance Trumps boys will turn to violence, they have swallowed his petulant claims, hook line and sinker.

    You can view it that way, others won't:

    "Second term kicks off with firing Wray, firing Fauci, no I actually want to go a step farther but the president is a kind-hearted man and a good man. I'd actually like to go back to the old times of Tudor England. I'd put their heads on pikes, right, I'd put them at the two corners of the White House as a warning to federal bureaucrats, you either get with the program or you're gone."

    "In Georgia, where Trump’s lead over Biden has shrunk to 3,486, only 18,936 ballots remain uncounted, according to Jordan Fuchs, the deputy secretary of state." - NYT

    If those are challenged/invalidated ballots Trump may win GA by the skin of his teeth.

    Did you watch the video. There was no ambiguity about it.

    Bannon 'I'd actually like to go a step further, I'd go back to the time of Tudor England, I'd put their heads on spikes'.

    His colleague then brought up the case of two people who were hung during the revolution for cohabiting with the British. Whole video was less than a minute.

    Na of course he's of sound mental health! As sprightly as a spring lamb :pac:

    Are you a trained and qualified psychologist, or in possession of other qualifications that enable you to make such a diagnosis? :confused:;)

    Fox News is entertaining.. this is a battle of love vs hate.
    As in, Trump supporters love Trump, but Biden supporters hate Trump.


    Trump is probably the David;- as opposed to the Joe Biden Goliath coalition of big media, Wall St. money, and big tech.

    He said that of the tens of millions of mail-in votes sent to people; that many were unsolicited, by those people.

    It is a bad day for America if Trump is not elected, not only may the Democrats have rigged the election (putting in the rules in the first place, probably decades ago?); but the concept of lockdown, which may now be appropriated by the Democrats for,their own? timely, use in a wishy-washy way in the future; further will attenuate the American economy.

    You don't need medical qualifications to suspect there may be something not quite right. I don't know if Biden is in early stages of dementia. Maybe he's not. But if a member of my family were making the mistakes he has I might suggest they have it looked into. Could be nothing.

    Search the thread for the word 'stutter'.

    It was obviously a joke.
    In poor taste but it will be taken out of context like so many things .

    (I was kinda tounge in cheek - late night humour - and thanks for quoting the original too lol!)

    I think Trump has been very damaging for free speech -Can I assume you meant Trump is for Free speech?

    Most of Trumps campaign has involved destabilising some aspect of society - the media, the press, public debate and now democracy!

    He even claims big tech is censoring him - which for anyone who knows how social media companies make their money - is ridiculous as they have sold out to (literally) to allow Trumps campaigns to spread misinformation - which although is allowed under free speech, its ultimately damaging as it makes it very difficult to have and healthy or honest debate.

    i think trump has been the only sanity for free speech!

    look it up on youtube, people getting bullied/screamed down/harassed for their POV.

    its disgusting.

    That's the Guardian's quote, not mine.

    I’ve a lot of family in the US... Florida, NY and Connecticut... hope that this doesn’t kick off, the country is a basketcase because of this psycho.

    Why would they be invalidated?

    They rigged the election by following the rules. Makes sense!

    Like when I cheated in my Leaving Cert by learning the answers to the questions before the exam.

    It's been obvious to me for a long time that violence was inevitable. There was no way Trump wouldn't incite disorder from his base under phone pretences. Things are really going to kick off when Biden reaches 270.

    they wont be invalidated.

    anyway it's all irrelevant cos biden wins nevada.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,443 ✭✭✭sondagefaux


    would be interesting to see how it would pan out with EC going with % of the state vote.

    as in texas....75 goes red .25 blue, same with california.

    has anyone crunched those numbers?

    If the Electoral College followed the national vote, Clinton would have won in 2016.

    Trump, for all his boasting, is a two-time loser of the national vote.

    They've always said that. It's only Fox News the bumbling morons who called it long ago despite the remaining demographics favouring Trump.

    The guy walks out of interviews when he can't handle the questions. That would be fine if he was just a regular joe but not as President.



    He's not into free-speech.

    The search was to find a relevant quote, but you seem to know what you want to think so no loss.

    Doesn't sound like a turn of phrase to me. Sounds like a threat.

    Steve Bannon is an idiot but I doubt he really wants to behead anyone and he gets banned. Kathy Griffen is another idiot who reposted her bloody beheaded Trump photo and twitter leaves it go. It seems like double standards.

    Save your energy, nobody cares about your or anybody else's baseless "musings" about Biden’s health.
