    Speaking of the runoff, yes I see that one has already been won by dems, but doesn't that mean that the other one will go to dems too? Can people vote for a dem AND a Republican?

    Obviously, since only one race was called...

    Somewhere in Georgia, there are @ 19K voters who voted for Warnock/Perdue....

    It takes all kinds, but if you forced my hand and I HAD to vote for one of those 2, it would be Perdue as well...

    Fortunately, I don't (because I don't live in Georgia)...

    I assume that only independents would vote for one from each party.

    A weasel? He said he didn’t want the recording released unless dirty donny lied about the call. Which, to absolutely nobody’s surprise, he did.
    So Raffensperger released the recording to set the record straight.
    The weasel is the current POTUS.

    Bet your asteroid. Anyone who’s way outside of the majority on every major issue, is a flaming lunatic.....like Trump and the entire GOP. You guys don’t even think it’s insane to disagree with consensus science of every research institution in the world..on key topics. You don’t believe in education. These things make your clan, insane and far right lunatics.
    Need a blue MAGA hat ?

    There was also a span of 4 years between Kerry and the train of Sec of States in the Trump years. The problems with Iran where not as Cute 4 years ago. Good point on SA but have you ever wondered what the Trumpocity promised the Saudis? We will see what happens in the ME the next several years. Even if the Yrumpocity had achieved a diplomatic victory in thevMEVwhich I doubt he more than schiested out our relationship with NATO, EU, South Korea, and other allies". The main thing is that the Yrumpocity.y screwed the Kurds and let Russia re.-solidify control of Syria.

    I dont really think so. I think their closer to center than they were. No matter the rhetoric coming from right about "socialism".

    The AOC faction is the loony left, but they are in a very serious minority.

    He may not be President after noon on the 20th, but you can be assured he will not Go in the way that you speak of here.

    He will be a thorn in the side of the incoming administration with goals to disrupt everything that do or attempt to do.

    His power will wane as the republicans start looking towards November, 2022, and searching for adult to run against the democrats in 2024. Nikki Haley, perhaps?

    Remember how the right wouldn't stop bitching because, every once in awhile, Obama said something about Trump? I imagine your hypocrisy will shine through as you cheer on Trump doing it far more regularly, and with far less class.

    He will think that. Trump thinks a lot of silly things. The reality is that he will be laughed at, around the world. He's done. He's in financial and legal trouble. Lots of trouble. Thinking Trump has any power at all through his base is an illusion. Every crew of 10 has 3 who just don't get it. They talk big, make promises and threats, sit together at lunch time. The other 7 just shake their heads as the work gets done, leaving the 3 malcontents behind as they move on to the next job.

    Obama was the first former President to do it. He set the stage for Trump. Blame it on Obama.

    He wasn't. It happened in the country's earliest days.

    Obama did it, once in a while. Not very frequently, and very few times.

    Trump will do it multiple times a day, every day. You will applaud.

    The majority of their platform is in line with the MAJORITY of the voters of the US.

    “A reported 56% of Americans believe providing accessible, affordable health care should be the responsibility of the government — i.e. Medicare for All. And nearly two-thirds of all Americans want the government to do more to combat climate change — i.e. the Green New Deal. The idea that the Democratic party should do more to appeal to white working class voters and to the possible detriment of their base is to knowingly harm the people who fended off the very real threat of fascism in the year 2020.”

    Just because AOC includes minority opinion collectively in her suggested platform, makes her a majority figure. Just catering to a white class only does not. That’s the difference between AOC and the Dem party and the GOP.

    If that were true, it would show in the makeup of The House.

    Full on communists are a teeny tiny minority.
