    Given the actions of the left when trump was elected with egregious acts of rioting… how do you think they’re going to handle it this next time?

    I’m thinking… not so well. I’m also thinking that Jan 6 is going to look like romper room in comparison if trump wins in 2024.

    The writing is already on the wall. The democrats and left leaning media are already spreading the “threat to democracy” moniker.

    You keep complaining that you were the victim of voter fraud that doesn't exist.

    This is the pinnacle of the persecution syndrome.

    I don't recall anyone saying the 2016 election was rigged. Some of us did bitch a little because we got 3 million MORE votes than you and we still LOST but we got over it.

    In 2020 we got 7 million MORE votes than you and this time we WON, but you're STILL not over that.

    Yeh, you're right, Heads you win and tails you still win, that is pretty obvious.

    Lol…says the person who belongs to a group who says everything is racist, sexist, homophobic, islamophobic, trans phobic, xenophobic, etc. Your side literally invented the persecution language.

    What a crock. There were some protests of a corrupt election. Get the facts straight.

    Is it too much of a struggle to watch it yourself and give a brief synopsis since it's your thread and no one wants to consume the same propaganda you so absorb?

    This is the way democracy dies, not with a bang but a whimper -- or so some would have us believe.

    Yet, historians will note that the United States of America has gone through periods of extreme polarization in the past and continued on its path. Pandora's Box, when almost empty, still contained Hope.

    Regards, stay safe 'n well 'n remember the Big 5.

    They are already getting their excuses lined up because they know a repudiation is coming.

    Lol.... Ever heard of a guy named Robert Mueller?

    And here is Hillary Clinton claiming that 20/20 would also be a stolen election and the Trump was an illegitimate president and that the election was stolen from her.... Democrats are the ones who crafted the big lie to begin with.
    Always projecting

    The way that some states are trying to rig the voting systems and install maga accomplices in sensitive positions related to elections indicates that they already have a plan and will try to subvert the results as much as they can.

    The sad part is that trump's big lie is now religious canon for many in the gop, so their agenda has been perverted to placate the seditious tantrums of a malignant narcissist and his pathological inability to accept defeat like a man.
    In an intelligent society, trump and his treasonous scoundrels would have been dealt with by more principled repubs long before they became a national embarrassment and security risk.
    But based on the mindless bigotry and ignorant filth that passes for social media these days, I suspect that many of trump's supporters must actually agree with the white supremacist nationalistic paranoia that trump and people like tucker spout to scare the rubes and maintain a hold on their wallets.
    Too many Americans seem too easy to con and trump has dragged too many in the country down into the sewer with him. It's sad that they can't see what a maggot of a human being he really is.

    I have a suspicion that the 2020 elections caught the repubs by surprise. They were relying on being able to rig the vote in a few select precincts like they did in 2016 and win even without the popular vote, yet again, but the pandemic caught them out and they weren't able to rig the mail in voting. No wonder they all want to kill mail voting as part of their broader Jim Crow tactics to suppress the undesirable vote.
    If things get blatant, there will be civil unrest.
    No self-respecting American would let such banana republic tactics go unchallenged, even if they were cloaked in the veneer of some Neo Jim Crow laws they pushed through since trump lost the election.

    So says the ones that claim the election was stolen without any proof. The ones that stormed the Capital were the screwballs.

    I don't think the election was stolen. I think the majority of American voters were really that ****ing stupid in how they vote...voted with their feelings instead of common sense and here we are!

    Hopefully buyer's remorse sets in before 2024.

    The victim again...

    Find me a single racist or homophobe on this forum who is not a Republican.

    81% of LBGTQ, 80% of blacks and 65% of Latinos voted Biden.

    How many threads against multiculturalism, against homosexuals and against the supposed LBGTQ propaganda taught in schools have been opened on this forum?

    Intolerance and hate have become the political agenda of conservatism.

    And you want us Liberals to be soft on you?

    Depends if you allow racism towards white people in your definition of racism? Or if you are ok with being bigoted towards women? Or if your good intentions towards black people isn't so cartoonish and ridiculous that it too could also be considered racist?

    But alas...we both know you exclude the stuff you support even though by it's very nature IS racism or bigotry.
