Hmm...

Society has been thrown in the mud in the quest to save us from Trump.
Larger margins than Trump won by in 2016.

But that doesn't address you claim that "roughly half" of America rejects D policies.

331 Million Americans. 74 M is not Roughly half of 331 M.

239 M eligible voters in the US. 74 M is not roughly half of 239 M.
About 206 registered voters. 74 M is not roughly half of 206 M.
156 M votes this election. 74 M is less than half. 46%.

So no you have no proof that "roughly half of Americans" reject D policies.

The man has 1$ billion in debt. He'll have to go back to his previous life of wheeling and dealing with the rest of the Trumplings. He might pick up the megaphone a few more times, but it'll be little more than a cash-grab from his loyalists. We all know that Melania won't stick around much longer and that divorce process will all but do him in physically and mentally. In short, don't expect much. His heyday is over.

What happens when Trump goes back in the offensive? Possibly with an even bigger megaphone?


He's had control of the most public stage and the largest megaphone in the world for four years and accomplished little more than demonstrating his lack of leadership ability.

He’s battled the world’s biggest campaign against *anything* for 4 years. Virtually all people with a voice spoke against “Hitler” — from the NBA to Twitter to every Republican at some point. Despite all this, the Trump following increased by 10 million AND become more diverse racially.

Explain.

These two ****tards will crasht he economy and leave the US a laughingstock on the world political scene and they'll put a conervative in to correct the mess they made. That conservative will clamp down on progressives and push them into a corner and silence their supporters, goading them into anger and resentment. But nobody's rights will be restored, everybody will lose a little more there, a little more here.
Trump was not part of that plan, he was outside the game as they wanted it played. That's why they had to get rid of him.
You on the left just let them ********* over just as much as they screwed conservatives over. They screwed EVERYBODY over with this stolen election.Everybody but the Elite 1% of 1% and the tech oligarchs. They're richer than ever. You got suckered into buying the Covid pandemic as well. Progressives are so incredibly dim way too often.

I’m not a Democrat, and I’d never vote for Biden, but he can ride a bicycle.

It’s unlikely that Trump can.

The will of those voting respresents the will of America. Despite a 4-5 year campaign against all things Trump — 47% of the electorate supports Trump. One side of the political spectrum was framed as “Hitler” and the other “not Hitler”...47% of America supported Hitler.

THAT is a mandate on the Democratic Party.

Trump wasn’t even supported by large numbers of establishment Republicans which makes the 47% number even more remarkable.

The Trump experiment did just what it was supposed to — turn the political establishment upside down, turn large numbers of people against the media and it brought identity politics to peak saturation. Big tech and everyone else piling on gets exposed to.

Trumpism is now an established part of American politics for generations.

75 million people just lost an election where they took on the world — of course your online measure of support may be temporarily impacted.

Is anyone really thinking the ideological divide will be healed by prosecuting Trump? 50% of America agrees with the other 50% on almost nothing with or without Trump in the picture.
The best thing Trump can do for the Democratic party is to keep talking, tweeting; sowing division and fascism.

The idealogical divide will NOT be healed either way.

But Trump's attempted coup of an election and his fascist tendencies need to be stamped out. Quickly.

Even big business, who LOVED their tax cuts, have threatened to withdraw funding from Republicans who promoted overturning the election.

Guess they figured out they didn't want to live in a fascist America either.

It took a 4 year 24/7 media campaign to stay competitive against Trump. You are surrounded by FAR more Trumpers than you were 4 years ago. The number will now continue to grow as people get a taste of censorship fear.
