"Bush v Gore in 2000. When election the the Supreme Court decided that election results can be reversed"

Have you considered working for RT? They love that sort of historical revisionism. No election results were reversed in 2000. Gore was the one attempting to reverse the election results, even though he was never ahead in any of the counts or recounts in Florida.

RGB had been diagnosed with cancer for years. Does Sotomayor have any comparable health problems? If not, this is just another dumb move by Democrats. (Yes, she's diabetic, but that's much easier to control.)
Even if Trump 2.0 doesn't implode like Trump 1.0 did, she's going to be around for a while, barring some unforeseen event that could happen regardless of age.

Today's nooner was awesome. Too bad the rest of you weren't able to see it.

"I'll tell you one thing though. Liberals wouldn't tolerate a 34 time convicted felon twice impeached insurrectionist representing our cause."

'It would never happen in our party.' = 'It could never happen here.'.

If you think your party/group is immune to the insanity going on in the other one right now, you're just as self-deluded as they are.

"The citizenry have voted on this and the vote is for law and order and deportation."

While I agree the Democrats have a problem with their policies on undocumented immigration, you Trump supporters have zero legs to stand on when it comes to law and order.

"But do realise this knife cuts both ways."

Most partisans, regardless of their party, fail to realize that.

There is no "I" in Felecia.

"Grow TF up."

If you aren't deliberately trolling, then you need to check yourself. Strongly implying something and then turning around and claiming "I never actually said that" is a common tactic used by posters like Snoofy and Gaslighter.

You got some of your facts wrong, but I'm not going to waste my time engaging with all the minutia. I've made that mistake in the past with the aliases mentioned above, since they just went around in circles deflecting to different points rather than acknowledging they might have been wrong on even one.

"That's what VPs do IF the president cant complete their term. The problem is, there was enough time to hold a primary for replacements"

Nope, that's not a serious statement.

" and they didn't. Harris pulled 2% in 2020 primaries, that pretty much says they didn't want her. And she hasn't exactly bedazzled anyone since.

A weak candidate coupled with calling over half of Americans deplorable and garbage makes for a hard road ahead."

Dude, the election's over, so you can drop the trolling act. You know she never said that. But yeah, her response to when Biden appeared to say the garbage thing was tepid and she blew the opportunity for a Sister Souljah Moment that was handed to her on a silver platter. No pun intended.

After both the 2016 and 2020 elections, I told my friends "America gets the President it deserves." I'm not so sure about that this time.

"the most significant problem in the US hands down is the lazy, uninformed voter."

Maybe you should go yell at them. Or keep repeating the same thing over and over until they "hear" you. Or spam them.

Hmm, it seems like none of these tactics have worked.

"It looks like we can learn from this that people are willing to elect a black person but they do really want to nominate one they don't want a Dei candidate selected by the outgoing president."

I still don't believe this was a significant factor. It's not like she was picked out of nowhere. She started off strong by acknowledging she needed to earn people's votes, but somewhere along the line she either lost focus or badly misjudged that she had already accomplished that.

The corporate media is largely to blame. No one is happier than them that Trump is headed back to the oval office.

"It was your candidate. The one no one ever voted for."

Everyone who voted Biden in the 2024 primary knew that Harris would be the one to replace him if he were unable to continue. I don't believe a significant number of people were actually bothered by this. If the shoe were on the other foot, Democrats would be making the same fake outrage shtick about the Republican candidate, and it would be just as tedious and unconvincing.

Like I said, these people are cutting off their noses to spite their faces.

One thing that Trump took advantage of, again, and that some cretins who knee-jerked to everything he said still haven't figured out, is that many voters filter out what they deem to be "noise". So, when Trump gets the cretins and fools stuck in a pattern of reacting to everything he says or does and calling him a "Nazi", they stop paying attention to those sources and subconsciously lump all accusations that sound outrageous in with that noise, even if they happened to be true.

"What do you think it is, Sentinel?"

I don't think it can be pinned down to just one thing, but I'm convinced there are mental health issues, regardless of whether the people who voted for him lean to the right, left or some other angle

And yes, I'm convinced he did get a number of left wing votes, because there are also people on the far left who thrive on chaos or don't know how to function in anything other than victim mode.

I also believe there are some who voted for him because they believed that appeasing his supporters would lessen the chances of violence like J6 again and naively hope that things will simmer down afterwards.

I don't agree this is politics as usual. After Clinton broke the law and was deservedly impeached, his party paid a price for several election cycles, and no one who isn't partisan still wants anything to do with anyone named Clinton. After Bush screwed up with both Iraq and the economy, no one wants anything to do with anyone named Bush either. But after ------- up the Covid response and getting deservedly impeached twice, and getting at least two of his own supporters fatally shot, people still want to subject themselves and the country to another four years of that?

Something is really wrong if that many people want to cut off their noses to spite their faces that bad, and can't be just because they're "stupid" or "evil".

"No one in their right mind would say that that many people are just plain retarded. It happened for a lot of reasons and pretending people didn't voice their concerns through voting is a grand denial."

I agree with this. Some of Trump's supporters are retarded and voted for him (again) because they only see politics as a sport/game/entertainment like professional wrestling. But some are cynical/depressed/disaffected and actually believe their lives will be better by burning the whole system down to the ground.

You have frequently demonstrated that you're just as stupid as any Trumper.

"How many women will die as a direct result of this election?
How many trans kids will kill themselves as a direct result of this election?
How many kids will be forcefully separated from their families as a direct result of this election?"

The same number as those who will die as a direct result of your misuse of the phrase 'a direct result of'.

"Hillary won [a plurality of] the popular vote."

That doesn't make her a better candidate. Harris didn't have the baggage that Clinton did and didn't do anything as off-putting as "people don't like me because I'm a woman. " She made some serious misteps at the end, though, between her twee snl appearance and refusing to go on Rogan and not strongly rebuking Biden's garbage gaffe.

"What an abysmal candidate that she was."

For all of her faults, she was nowhere near as bad as HRC.

It's not Trump you have to worry about. It's whoever comes after him.

Lichtman has already called it for Trump. The math isn't there.
