I don't like it either. We are the united states. Yes, we have our division because over 3 million can't possibly

We have had a president for 4 years now who sows our division with lies and conspiracy theories. What kind of president does this. Why would Trump and his supporters thing this election was rigged. The simple fact is that he was voted out because the majority thought he was a horrible president. This is how every election is. Presidents are voted in and out, no big deal. No one needs to throw a temper tantrum especially our current president.

I don’t like Trump’s personality and rants but after what I saw with Obama, I realized that soft-spoken articulate Presidents can also be slithering snakes who are quietly conspiring the demise of our republic and of our constitution all while appearing to be “for America and Americans.” I have learned that the policies put forth are more important than a personality. Good luck with Biden*

We don't need a president who's a wanna be dictator which Trump longs for. Everything is all about him. This is our country, not his. We took a chance on him but he failed. We hired him and then we fired him. We don't want a president who thinks everything is all about him.

I guess you missed the last four years of him mercilessly mocking and insulting his opponents, calling people losers, and generally being the most uncouth and vulgar president we've had in at least a century if not ever... Assigning lame denigrating nicknames ("crooked Hillary," "sleepy joe biden"), insulting McCain's military service and status as a POW (a "loser," and: "He's not — a war hero. He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured")... The man is devoid of grace and acts like a spoiled fifth grade bully.

When this is how you treat people, what do you expect?

If Biden lost, the same people crying about Trump being "kicked while he's down" would be having a laugh fest.

It's definitely SO different with how conservatives treat Obama or Biden!

As the virus heads into a winter surge, our defeated president tweets, plays golf and runs a money-raising scam.

On Monday, 130,340 were diagnosed with COVID, and 745 died. On Tuesday, 139,746 contracted COVID and 1,465 died. On Wednesday, there were 142,860 new cases of COVID, and 1,431 died. On Thursday, a new national record was set with 163,402 new cases, and the country suffered its seventh day since the election with more than 1,000 deaths from COVID, a total of 1,172 succumbing to the disease.

There are now estimates that at the rate we're going, 400,000 Americans will be dead of COVID by the end of the year. Four hundred thousand! That is more than the population of New Orleans, and nearly the population of Minneapolis.

We've got more deaths from this virus than the number of soldiers killed in World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam and the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan combined. The president of the United States we just voted out of office is sitting around watching Fox News, filing phony lawsuits, firing people he thinks are "disloyal," and running a new scam on his way out the door to line his pockets with dollars from his adoring base. Donald Trump is living up to every expectation we ever had about him. He's going out exactly the way he came in: lying, cheating and stealing.

Those are facts, not an opinion.

No, not really but he was certainly better than President Obama who was constantly trying to do end runs around the Constitution. Further, just because some spouts foul language is no excuse for others to do the same.

That's the thing, though. I don't like former President Obama, I don't trust him, but I won't insult him either and I did stand up for him when he was being treated unfairly.

That's the thing.....I DON'T LIKE HIM, I have never voted for him, I am glad he is gone and was not replaced by Hillary Clinton...............

..................but unlike so many other people and how they act when their side didn't win, I will always refer people by their proper name, I will not spew hate against them.

The other side would go a lot further in my book if they didn't resort to name calling, if hate wasn't so much on their breath.

So, it's ok for Trump, and I assume by proxy his supporters, to spout foul language as nauseum, but responding in kind is verboten?

I don't stoop vulgar or profane insults and don't like seeing others do it but again, the corcodile tears around a lack of civility after years of supporting it is pathetic when coming from adults.

Well that’s your opinion of course and I understand what you’re saying but I didn’t see him as wanting to be a dictator, and in my opinion his policies were “for” America and Americans’ best interests. I don’t think he failed. I don’t want our sovereignty undermined, don’t want to pay for healthcare for noncitizens and think Biden* is simply a tool for non elected elites who want global governance and who want China at the top tier. Good luck.
