It may still be a landslide.

No. Biden may win ALL the remaining states - and DWT will still have 213 (40%) electoral votes, meaning he would lose, but not overwhelmingly so. I don't think anyone would refer to it as a landslide. Historically - at least 150 years back - no loser in a landslide received more than 20% of the electoral votes.



No matter who wins - it should be clear to everyone that at least 60,000,000 people disagree with one or the other. The past 4 years have barely moved that number.



Both sides need to dump the extremes and move toward the middle. 4 years of telling people they're just wrong accomplished nothing. True for both sides.

Stay calm...that's what the electoral college is all about. Plus, those cities are in ruins, and even the Libs there are beginning to wise up to it...after 50+ years.

Nearly every Dem who flees those cities are admitting it to the world. Democrat policies sound so nice, but they are actually death by a million cuts. It takes decades for it to become clear, to the highly emotional Dem voters, that they are bleeding out.

It's almost as if people are more important than dirt! Unbelievable!

Wah! I hate that people vote instead of dirt!

Cities are blue because people who live in cities tend to be better educated and, since cities are more multicultural, less racist.

Sorry the mouth breathing, cousin-marrying, dirt eating contingent is fading in some states.

Fear not! As the popular vote shows, plenty of America is still stupid or racist or both.

Interesting take, just days ago Democrats were bragging about a massive victory

Conservatives/GOP will never support riots, looting, lockdowns, and being called racists every 5 seconds.

Biden won’t be passing anything through Congress or Mitch McConnell

Yes, and businesses that can not afford it will cut jobs and or make them part time. Your budget is your budget and income just doesn't magically appear to pay for wage increases.

So radical libs, where's the landslide the pollsters promised you? I have not seen a single answer yet.

The best the Dems here can muster, is that it's not over yet. Why isnt it over yet? The polls had Biden by a wide margin.

When it is over, and Trump is declared the winner, will you answer then? Probably not...you'll just run, hide, & sulk.

For months I've read post, after post, after post, how the polls had Biden up big, and how Trump was toast.

So, why are we sitting here in limbo this morning?

You were all lied to...by your own team! Ouch...that must hurt. They played you like a fiddle.

All those pollsters cared about was themselves...selling advertising...they never cared about you, or how you would feel right now.

So, go ahead...cling to your baby blanket of hope, & climb into your shell of denial that you'vee been had...again!
