I'm from MI, I was asking much more about the "causing" the problems with Flint's water than I was about any "celebration".

The Holiday Season is just around the corner. If Trump wins I've told my wife not to mention we voted for him. Just say we supported Biden and get off the subject of politics.
It is sad that leftists brown shirts have threatened and frightened conservatives into silence in the United States of America. What you describe is the very definition of living in fear.

Why would anyone who loves democracy and freedom support people who are doing these things? They are punishing people for their politics. They decide what is and is not “politically correct”. What country is this?

Well, I don’t expect Biden to win because it’s 2020 so of course the worst possible outcome will happen. But if he does win, I’ll just breathe a sigh of relief.

No, I've never seen you post "you'll reap what you sow" but you are certainly guilty of the bolded. When you posted that, I laughed out loud.

A big reason I don’t want anything to do with liberals is the nasty comments they’ve thrown at anyone who refuses to submit and vote for whom they demand. I’ve been called a Nazi sympathizer (by a leftist who knows I lost grandparents to Hitler) as well as being told by a leftist that he was sorry I hadn’t been killed - and everything in-between. I was even called “immoral scum”! I never realized how hateful and intolerant liberals are of different opinions until I become active on social media and heard for myself.
I have no idea what you are on about here so, doesn't concern me, take it up with those posters.

Anyone who posts here knows who these posters are.
I do hope they feel shamed and others feel vindicated. I expect to see threads pointing out the falsehoods.
This could be a wonderful opportunity to upgrade your belief system to be more fact based and to appreciate which sources of information are better at reporting the truth. Hindsight is only 20/20 if you care to look back.
You're an optimist if you think those posters will ever change. And believe me, if Trump is re-elected, they will only double down on their reprehensible behavior. It will be open season on anyone who isn't a full scale Trump supporter in this forum for the next 3.5 years, depending on who the next Democratic candidate is.

Yeah, not sure how much of the forum I'll be able to stomach if Trump wins again.

But will democrats on CD brag or celebrate, or will they accept that this is a terrible predicament and that there is nothing to be happy about?
I'm sure they'll follow the examples of decorum and sober moderation demonstrated by Trump's followers.

It will be so good not to have to hear about Trump 24/7 and all his horrible tweets, name calling and bragging.

An IMMEDIATE reaction of, ok, now, can we all PLEASE GET ALONG AGAIN? Can we all come together as a country, and stop warring with one another? Can we all put this behind us, and move forward?

We'll see. Shortly.
^This. Its what we need as a nation.

If you don't bother to vote, then you really have no right to complain.

No bragging, just a visit to church and a lighting of a candle. Nor will I gloat when the southern district of New York arrests him for tax fraud.
Yes. This.

If Biden wins it will be an historic event, the day America turned from the path towards fascism that Trump is taking us down.
Exactly. Well said.

Do you know anyone who has died from covid? I do, and directly blame Mr. Transparent who didn't want to "panic" the public. As a result, I resent all of you who support this pathological liar.

Do you have to go so low with such inflammatory words. Now how do you think it feels when the object of those comments is me?
The OP is always starting posts talking about how awful America is, and how terrible American people are.
If you hate our country, perhaps you should just get the he$$ out! (That is unless you aren't even here to begin with.)

Spending four years "owning the cons"? I find this entire thread laughable. IF Biden wins, not only would we get to "own the cons", we get to say that every sleazy thing a Democrat says about Trump supporters is just trolling.
