    The only court case I am interested in seeing is the one that will end

    "Members of the Jury, how do you find the defendant Donald Trump?"

    "Guilty"


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,386 ✭✭✭Cody montana


    I see they are opting for war over on the Donald.win.

    Bunch of degenerates over there. Absolutely embarrassing carry on. One thing is clear; the US is a seriously messed up country.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,386 ✭✭✭Cody montana


    Milo Yiannopoulos(remember him) having a meltdown on parler is a sight to see.
    Also opting for war.

    Trump and his politics are toxic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,122 ✭✭✭✭everlast75


    Texas talked this bollox back when Obama won.

    They don't have the nuts to do it.

    Besides, like I've said plenty of times here, if all the Trump states did **** off and form their own union, it'd be bankrupt within a year. Unfortunately, it seems like that would be the only way they'd learn that he's an incompetent charlatan.

    Yes, running on dividing a country and hate is apparently a thing in our modern world.

    Biden needs to try and bring everyone together.
    I think it’s impossible though.

    I don’t think trump had ever planned winning the court cases. He is building a massive slush fund to fight the legal battles and won’t require near the amount he is collecting. He is nothing more than a charity mugger with his current actions on the pulpit. Legally he is entitled to take a vast portion of that money with him tax free and I believe this is his end game. It was always about himself right from day 1 and his outlook has not changed.

    The Republican Party is an embarrassment. For the self proclaimed party of the Constitution and party of state rights, they've spent the last few weeks assaulting both in historic fashion. They've enabled and indulged an incompetent man-child and have radicalised millions of their voters to hate democracy. Not sure where they go next.

    Did she wave around any more pieces of paper? That's her thing these days.

    The Calexit proposition got a similar boost after Trump got elected. California still in the union. The same thing here with Texas i.e. posturing but then the inevitable backing down.

    I'm not hugely upset at Time giving Joe Biden and Kamala Harris person of the year. I'd love to have seen Trump's face when he heard it.
    With the year we've had though I think it should have been given jointly to the BLM movement and frontline healthcare workers.

    Can states legally secede, though? The general opinion when this was last discussed seems to be no - maybe Texas is a different case?

    Secessionists in Texas believe that because Texas was an independent state before joining the US that it can break away again legally. However it can't.

    I always get the impression Texas is like Cork. They for some reason think they’re different to everyone else. (Joking, kind of)

    It'll never happen, too much at stake financially.


  • Registered Users Posts: 725 ✭✭✭drogon.


    Hear me out. I know Tesla and now Oracle has decided to move their HQ from California to Texas. Surely this will eventually lead to more Democrats votes for the state ? With most of these companies mainly attracting specific type of voters.

    Similar things has happened to Arizona, where cities like Tuson and Phoenix - had a greater blue voter base compared the suburbs. This was enough to give Biden the win. So won't be surprised if we see similar trends in Texas too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,339 ✭✭✭PropJoe10


    Some of the things that Republicans have been saying about the SCOTUS throwing out this Texas case are way, way over the line of dumb and embarrassing. Why in the name of God are they all selling their souls to this man? I will never be able to understand it.

    They wouldn't. They'd claim that their new union was infiltrated by the left in order to make it look bad. You know this.

    Yes, Texas is turning blue slowly. It may take 20 years but if population trends continue it’ll turn eventually.

    I haven't been following this as I thought it was a done deal but if Trump still chasing every legal avenue and denying he lost.
    And has he won any of these ?

    Nope. But as long as the doesn't conceded, he has still access campaign funds as well as being able to grift for the 'legal defense' (that the majority lines his own pockets), so he'll continue as long as he can

    There'll be nothing done before Monday and Biden will be confirmed on Monday.
    Game over.
    Texas will be blue in 2024 is my prediction.

    I see they are opting for war over on the Donald.win.

    They have been eager for it for a while. In spite of being confident in the 3d chess. Hopefully they don't follow through with the war bit but remember not to vote in a "corrupt" system ever again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,339 ✭✭✭PropJoe10


    It's quite remarkable to see an official GOP outlet suggesting that they should break out and form a new union. This was once the party that prided itself on defending the US constitution.

    They cheered like drunks at a strip club as he tweeted 'Law and Order' while pardoning convicted felons and had 215 indictments tied to his administration.

    There is no debate any more as to which is party is genuinely more interested in the good of society. There are plenty career politicians and opportunists within the Democrats but they're 'radicals' are interested in reducing education debt and providing greater access to healthcare while the other side are screaming about an individuals rights to not wear a mask while denying a woman the right to control what she does with her body and planning to create a broke 3rd world country in North America.

    I never mentioned rioters. They are not part of BLM. I'm sure some criminals used it to hide their real agendas, similar to Trump in many ways.

    That's your belief, a pretty racist view on things.
    Calling for police to be refunded isn't violence.
    If police are murdering people then they are not law abiding citizens. Why would you fund criminals?
    There's lots of work to be done to repair the damage from earlier this year and it will be done and hopefully properly with multicultural oversight committees to make sure that those that are there to serve and protect are law abiding citizens and doing the job properly.

    92% of BLM protests were peaceful, some definitely did end in violent but the vast vast majority were peaceful. And of those that turned violent some were instigated by right ring agitators.

    But, you’re not interested in facts as they don’t line up with your prejudices.

    How did right wing agitators inspire criminals within protests to loot nikes and TVs from shops?

    The fact that business owners had to write "blm supporter " and "black owned business " on the boards that covered their windows and doors.
