The left whined about the electoral college when Bush and Trump were elected ...

Because of Bush v Gore The "left" "whined" about the Supreme Court selecting our President for us.

Appropriately so.

And I also think is reasonable to question how the electoral college is democratic. But now you have ruined my question and given away the answer.

We are not a direct democracy. But we are "remotely" democratic.

By design.

Re 1

Weird maga maroons get emotional at the most inappropriate times and for the weirdest reasons.

"Ok...that's gotta be The Onion..."

Close. It is satire. But I agree it's getting hard to tell anymore.

It's from the Borowitz Report according to my "Goodguy AI".

Here is another headline from his webpage:

Worm Leaves Scathing Yelp Review of RFK Jr.'s Brain

FTA:

"please understand I am an idiot and often get things wrong and lose money."

Another stinker bell "reliable source "

DingDong doesn't understand the first amendment or the care about the laws of other countries.

Nobody is surprised.

Politicians are no more qualified than a janitor is to decide which books are "age appropriate ".

Neither are judges.

Neither are the hoi polloi as their opinions can change with the winds.

Trump supporters should be livid at him for having made such a disgusting claim

They cannot. Right or wrong they MUST support whatever Dear Leader supports. Because Dear Leader cannot be wrong.

It Is The Way.

The entire thing is so transparent.

Made 100% clear with the campaign video and the disgusting thumbs up photo op done by a dead soldiers grave.

What a honorable thing to do!

"We didn't lose one person in 18 months." (a lie)

"Then they took over that disaster."

What a "comforting" thing to say to the families of the fallen.

"How is that Remotely Democratic?"

It is "remotely" democratic because of the delegates.

Delegates are awarded proportionally.

State delegates CAN choose a different candidate than the one you voted for.

State delegates go to the national convention to vote to confirm their choice of candidates. But if no candidate gets the majority of a party's delegates during the primaries and caucuses, convention delegates choose the nominee. This happens through additional rounds of voting.

Which is basically what happened.

In this case the candidate voters selected dropped out leaving the delegates free to select a different candidate.

Welcome to America comrade.

Let me ask you a question.

How is it "remotely democratic" that the presidential candidate who wins the popular vote by nearly 3 million votes still lose the election?

No baby, no hot dog."

"You are the biggest gaslighter on this site."

Say so does not make it so.

I dare you to do a poll.

I don't think I have ever seen Tony "gaslight" on anything. Ever.

Tony is a serious and truthful poster. Albeit he is obviously human and getting as frustrated with maga lies and distortions of the truth as the rest of us.

Perhaps you don't understand what "gaslighting" actually means?

#14. Musk is not the authoritarian in this scenario.

#16 | POSTED BY BELLRINGER

Of course he is.

He is just another billionaire who thinks he is above the law and is acting out like his BFF Trumpy. Who is also an authoritarian.

Elmo doesn't care about Brazil. He obviously only cares about his own profits and power.

The fact is any country has the right to suppress speech if it endangers the stability and the very existence of the government.

The American Government also has that right and has exercised it.

shut up, kiss my butt, go to hell, go to hell.

Wow. So articulate! So much logic. So much common sense.

You mad bro?

The weirdos are getting desperate. Time to lock up the silverware.

"Biden continually looking at his watch during the "dignified" transfer of the bodies told us all we needed to know"

So you finally admit that Biden DID acknowledge their deaths after Trumpy lied and said that Biden NEVER did.

What did Trumpy's illegal video of him doing his "thumbs up" next to a dead soldiers grave tell you?

"I'm not shutting up. That's one thing the American system does still allow."

The "American system" also allows that you remain silent.

But, if you wish to continue to make yourself look like a fool then I say have at it!

STOP LYING!

Yeah I don't think that is possible for him.

Remember Tony ... this all just an attempt at deflection from Trumpy's horrible past record.

If we are talking about this we then are not talking about his inciting the Jan 6 insurrection, his conviction for 34 felonies his two impeachments or the overturning of Roe v Wade, his other federal indictments, his sexual abuse of women, or his lies about immigrants AND all the other lies and horrible things Trumpy has done.

I'm not surprised that Donnerboy is siding with the authoritarians on this.

#10 | POSTED BY BELLRINGER

What do you mean? I thought it was clear that I am NOT siding with Elmo in this. I may not agree with laws of other countries but I would respect them if I chose to do my business there.

"I've watched the left cheer censorship in this country and clamor for more. "

The "left" that lives rent free in your head ... apparently.

I have watched you embarrass yourself over and over here constantly proving how you have no understanding of the first amendment and how it actually works.

Oh noes!!

Them evil lefty radical wind farms are killing all them fat pigs flying out of Trumpy's fat lying arse!

There is absolutely a correlation between COVID vaccines and hypertension.

Any correlation was "transient and rare". Meaning it probably had nothing to do with the vaccine.

Feel free to google it.

Modern journalism sucks.

#28 | POSTED BY SENTINEL

I minored in journalism.

I would not classify this "influencer" or this opinion piece as journalism.

It's poisoning legitimate discourse by driving every thread into nothing but rebutting garbage posts coming from the right wing gutters and cesspools.

#29 | POSTED BY TONYROMA

I am not as sure of that . . It was his thread. So we already knew it would be a cesspool of maga garbage.

First ... nothing posted here is gonna "poison" anything. They are just regurgitating talking points being fed to them.

Second... It seems to me it is making them look more desperate every time they post.

Third ... it gives us an opportunity to examine and reveal their talking points for what they are. (Garbage)

Fourth. Your response was an excellent rebuttal and I await his response to it though we may have to wait for Fixed News to issue it first.

Illegal video footage?

#16 | POSTED BY BELLRINGER

Illegal as in violation of federal law.

It is a violation of federal law to take photos and videos of the site for political purposes. The Army said that the Trump campaign was "made aware of federal laws ... which clearly prohibit political activities on cemetery grounds."

It's real shame you have to constantly reminded of or taught such obvious things.
