even the MSM described it as "anemic" and a "jobless recovery". If I didn't note it in this thread - full-time jobs increased more in the last 3 years than the previous 8.

Seriously, everyone can see that the man isn't all there anymore. His cabinet will be making all the decisions for him (if he is given the presidency).
As opposed to Captain Covfefe, who thinks wind power is killing birds, didn't know healthcare would be so hard and thought no one else did either (hint: anyone with a triple digit IQ knew it), was going to bring back "beautiful clan coal" (until he didn't), claimed Democrats were going to slaughter cows, stared into an eclipse without protection, thought Frederick Douglass was alive, lauded Nambia's health care system, despite Nambia not actually existing and so on and so on....


But, hey....Person, woman, man, camera, TV. You've got THAT going for you.....

I don't think it is a mystery. Many white people were turned off by Trump's corruption, behavior, ineptitude, lying, and the constant chaos that surrounded him.

The truth is that I'm guessing a majority of white voters (by a lot) voted for Trump.


The vote was pretty much split down the middle. The 70 million that voted for Biden were probably mostly minorities, so-called "refugees", descendants of illegal aliens (and therefore illegitimate votes in my opiinion) and then probably....30 million mostly self-hating white votes???


I'm guessing whites voted for Trump 2 to 1 compared to Biden and the demoKKKrats who have forever rigged American elections by taking a huge dump in an otherwise clean pool.

It was actually 3 to 2 (keeping the ratio in whole numbers).

Another big takeaway is that income has a LOT to do with how one votes. 2020 election results:

D +11 for incomes under $50,000
R +12 for incomes of $100,000 or more

That's a pretty wide swing: 23-percentage points from low-income to higher-incomes.

Source: Edison Research for the National Election Pool

No surprise... Those who contribute the least and who have their hands out to take OPM (other people's money) overwhelmingly vote for Democrats because they've promised to confiscate other people's money and give it to them. Those who contribute the most and from whom money is confiscated to give to others who haven't earned it are overwhelmingly Republicans. We're living in a country in which the mob can vote to take the money you've earned for themselves. They don't have to do a damned thing to earn it other than vote for whoever promises to confiscate and redistribute OPM.

In other words, our country is now a nation of two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner (metaphorically speaking). How long until the sheep say "F it" and just choose to either stop being the contributors, or move somewhere else that has less punitive taxes and more individual freedoms?

Um, he's not being "given" the presidency. It's not a party favor.

Do you realize you are saying that Trump is so bad that a brain dead person beat him?

Um, that's nearly 80 million.

No, what it means is those who voted for Biden are the brain dead ones.

Biden didn't win, period.


He simply did not. It was not legitimate. And I will never see it as legitimate, even if he is given the election.



Now...you lefties p-ssed all over Trump's last 4 years saying it was illegitimate, now you can deal with the same from us.

I never said Trump was illegitimate.

I certainly never liked anything about him, but as Raffensperger said - the numbers are the numbers.

And unless you guys can come up with actual hard evidence that a conservative judge like Brann can make sense of, the numbers will remain the numbers.
