Stop the madness.


The trump presidency is almost over, as over 75 million Americans decided that they have had enough of his madness. 

Of course, Mr. trump, in typical trump fashion, refuses to do the gracious thing and exit stage left. In his heart he knows that there was no voter fraud that caused him to lose the election, but his ego and his gullible followers will not let him accept defeat. 

He is playing a dangerous game with American democracy and American lives, but he doesn't care, because, as always, it's all about him.  

Mahfuz Anam writing in the Daily Star sums up what is happening right now.

'"Election is free and fair if I win it and rigged if I lose"'. I wrote this sentence many times during our period of contested elections under the caretaker government system. I never imagined that I would have to write this about a US election. After having raised the bogey of possible massive election fraud during a re-election campaign, President Trump is now refusing to accept its result. He is opting for litigation to ascertain "legal" votes, implying that there were "illegal" ones, without any shred of evidence so far. Even the Republican controlled states have stood by the accuracy of the election process.

Trump is doing what he does best—disrupt. He did it all through his tenure and he is doing so as he departs, not, of course, if he can help it. But it is a dangerous game he is playing. If he really follows through with his threat of not "conceding" the election, he will cause serious problems in smooth transfer of power and push American politics towards uncharted waters, not to mention making his country subject of ridicule all over the world.

So much of democracy depends on following norms, precedence, procedures, decency and a willingness to play by the rules. Democracy is as much a system as it is a mindset, a collection of values fundamentally rooted on the respect for the "public will" and conceding to it when voted out. If a major actor of this process—in this case Trump—refuses to play by the rules and norms then the whole edifice of democracy risks being seriously dented. Trump's refusal to accept the electoral verdict will create all sorts of problems for a smooth transfer of power, a cornerstone of democracy. After all, politics is about gaining power and democracy is about its smooth and peaceful transfer reflective of people's choice. The more sober section of the Republican Party leadership must rise to the occasion and see that the choice of the majority is honoured.

A seriously vulnerable point of the US presidential election is the practice of "conceding" the election when one is defeated. Since its founding days in every election the defeated candidates had "conceded" to the winner. Normally presidents complete two terms and the election, held at the end of the second term, has two new contestants, neither of whom are in power. However, if the defeated candidate is the incumbent, as is in this instance (Trump being one of four one-term presidents) then the case is radically different. The sitting president, who is in power, has to "concede" to allow the process of transition to the new leadership to take place in a smooth manner.

So, what happens if Trump does not concede as he has announced he would not? Courts will come into the picture and their verdicts will set the course. We do not know how long it will pan out but we can be sure that it will make the relations between the winning and defeated parties—between the democrats and the republicans—bitter. The "time to lower the temperature, see each other again, listen to each other" appeal by Biden may fall on deaf ears making the "healing" difficult if not well-nigh impossible, definitely in the short run. People expect Biden to remain patient and he, perhaps, will. But much will depend on how elaborate, protracted and time consuming the legal process ends up being. Thankfully there is a time limit till January 20, 2021 when the new president is set to take oath. It is hoped by then some solution will emerge and power will be transferred without fracturing the time" [Source] 

Oh yes, "hope". We are now in a position in America where we can only "hope" that this madman leaves the people's house willingly, and without some sort of major Constitutional crisis, or worse, violence in the streets. 

Some of you thought making this man president was funny four years ago. Well, I hate to break it to you, it ain't so funny anymore.

It is not Constitutionally required for Trump to concede. As of January 20, 2021, Joe Biden will be President, full stop. If need be then the Secret Service will escort any trespassers from the White House grounds. In theory he might try some funny stuff in the meanwhile, but he lacks the necessary ruthlessness and competence.

He's already planning his next grift: Trump TV, a wingnut TV network he wants to create -- because apparently Fox News isn't wingnutty ENOUGH. And, Trump claims, Fox betrayed him by not backing literally all of his lies, only most of them.

Obviously, that wouldn't be good for America, but anything would be better than him in the Oval Office.

There’s already OANN and the Sinclair stations as budding Fox competitors. Lots of people want a piece of the very profitable business of programming the “infinitely reprogrammable meatbags,” as you call them.

America’s villages have at least 70 million village idiots that need their delusions reinforced and their bigoted grievances stoked. But Trump figures nobody can do it better than him.

If he really follows through with his threat of not "conceding" the election, he will cause serious problems in smooth transfer of power

The transition from the first Trump/Pence administration to the second Trump/Pence administration will be smooth as silk.

and push American politics towards uncharted waters

Oh, we've been here before.  1861-1865 (through I wouldn't expect an alien from Jamaica to know American history).  Since you won't accept America's choice peacefully, the riots are going to be answered with force.  Ethnic cleansing will follow, as it always does.

There is ALREADY violence in the streets, you idiot.  Charlotte.  Chicago.  Minneapolis.  Kenosha.  Those names mean anything to you?

Trump was re-elected BECAUSE America is sick of the violence in the streets.  America is sick of YOU.

North Dakota Hospitals Hit Capacity

PilotX, I beg to differ. Alex Trebeck would have been a good President.

Fight the Power said...

Ultimately, this election can best be described as a coup, not by Trump against the people, but rather by the Media/Tech/NGO apparatus against the Constitution. Aligned with their Wall Street funding and Academia manpower, this Blue Empire is attempting to seize control by replacing the electoral process with one where they determine reality and who the most powerful man in the world is.

Sometimes, the mask slips. Voting took place. But the election? The supposedly democratic selection of our next leader? No. The Media made the decision, Tech enforced it, NGOs spread the word, and Wall Street rallied. This can barely be described as an election.

At a national level, “democracy” becomes nothing more than a mechanism for legitimizing elite interests and playing out intra-elite conflicts. Elites propagandize the people through media to support the elite’s desired ends.

The reason why the Media and Tech are so adamant about defending “democracy” is because “democracy” is the system in which they possess the most power. It is the system where they can propagandize the people however they want, legitimizing their own interests infinitely.

Fundamentally, when Nixon claimed that the Press was the enemy of the people, he meant the Press. Not journalism writ large. Journalism, broadly speaking, is useful and important. But the Press? They are as much an institution as anything else, with their own goals and interests. And they have found the perfect alliance (Tech/NGO/Academia/Wall Street) and rhetoric (“democracy”) to propagandize their message effectively to the People.

The 2020 Election is Not Really Taking Place.

“The media represents [a] world that is more real than [the] reality that we can experience. People lose the ability to distinguish between reality and fantasy. They also begin to engage with the fantasy without realizing what it really is.
They seek happiness and fulfillment through the simulacra of reality, e.g. media and avoid the contact/interaction with the real world.”

Republicans won 28 of the 29 most competitive House seats and are leading in several more that were not considered competitive, kept the Senate, won over 100 new state seats and took control of 3 more state legislatures, and Trump got 10 million more votes than he did in 2016, including the highest share of minority votes for a Republican since 1960.

Yet we are being told to believe that a senile grifter who couldn't get more than a dozen people to come out to his rallies somehow got ten million more votes than Obama.

Sure, this blue empire is trying to win control of the government by allowing all legal votes to be counted. Don't blame us blues because the majority of Americans voted for Joe Biden. Maybe if your cult leader, Trump would have done something to control the pandemic, he would have been reelected. But instead he decided to let American die by the thousands because he thought that would aid his reelection. Imagine how dumb that decision was. Your cult leader, Donnie, is an idiot.

Sure it does. Several variables are involved, voter suppression, gerrymandering, very small margins between the votes in counties, and distaste for Trump by some Republicans who voted for Joe, but otherwise voted a straight Republican ticket.

Paradoctor said...

The Election-Stealer’s Trilemma:
Any attempt to steal a big election can be two, but not all three, of:
Effective
Discreet
Inexpensive
If it’s two, then it can’t be the third. For instance, winning by popular/EC split is inexpensive and effective but indiscreet. Winning the old-fashioned way, by quietly buying off voters and vote-counters, is effective and discreet but expensive. And trying to win by dirty tricks in the dark is discreet and inexpensive but ineffective.

Bush 2000 and Trump 2016 used method #1. Both presidencies were disastrous. Our trolls accuse Biden of method #2, the traditional method. Trump is broke, so instead of method #2, he used method #3. History suggests that 2 beats 3.

In places like Saddam Hussein's Iraq, yes, but not in a real election.

There are people who vote only for President and don't bother checking any other boxes, but one candidate getting 99.993% of these votes is in your face fraud.

One could accept that there was some tendencies in this subset of voters that could go strongly in one candidate's favor. 60%, 70% maybe. 80% would seem impossible. 90% would be absolutely absurd. But 99.993%? You can't be a real person.

The obviousness of this fraud will be its undoing.

Called undervoting, it's happened to the benefit of both candidates in various states this year.

"Some claims imply that these votes favor the Democrat former vice president and could be a sign of voter fraud. They often point to swing states like Michigan as evidence.

One such claim was a tweet from a Fox contributor who said 450,000 people who voted for just Biden in “key states” were significant in assessing whether there’s evidence of fraudulent ballots.
But this kind of suspicion on these ballots ignores the history of undervoting in American elections......."

"Do you have to vote for everything on your ballot? (2020)"

"No. The act of leaving one option blank on a ballot while filling out other options is commonly referred to as undervoting. For example, a voter that is permitted to cast one vote for a presidential candidate and does not select a candidate, or a voter who has only cast two votes in a contest allowing three, has undervoted. Voters have the right to undervote if they choose to do so."

To Math at 12:16 PM

here's a little more info you from the first article I cited above

The Federal Election Commission has a page of past results and vote totals for American elections, including tables that show how many people voted for president, senator and representative in the House.

While not every voter in any given election has an opportunity to vote for a senator, every voter does get a chance to vote for a member of the House. Undervoting can be measured by comparing past nationwide presidential vote totals to past House of Representatives totals.

In 2016, 136,669,276 voted for president while only 131,652,458 voted for a member of the House. In 2012, 129,085,410 voted for president while only 124,793,115 voted for a Congress member. In 2008, 131,313,820 voted for president while only 122,959,841 voted for a House representative. And in 2004, 122,295,345 voted for president while only 114,413,842 voted for a House member.

Trump won said...

"The company in question, Dominion Voting Systems, improperly counted ballots to create a fraudulent win for Joe Biden in Antrim County, Michigan and caused several other 'glitches' that required extended voting hours and delayed results. Federal Election Commission (FEC) records, however, reveal the company is overwhelmingly staffed by Democrat donors -- perhaps contributing to the explanation as to how the machines malfunctioned exclusively to Biden's benefit."

https://thenationalpulse.com/exclusive/dominion-dem-donors/

"The facts are, as of Monday, a full week after election day, Biden is behind President Donald Trump in the undisputed electoral count -- Biden's 226 to Trump's 232 (assuming Trump wins North Carolina) -- with a full 80 outstanding electoral votes in seven states still in a legal fog and unlikely to be determined much before the Dec. 14 state deadlines to report the count to Congress."

That's a straight up lie.

Richard Hopkins was pressured to recant by federal investigators but he didn't, despite a truly despicable amount of mind fuckery by the agents. The IG Federal Officer Russell Strasser leaked the "recanting" to CNN, but unfortunately for him Hopkins had recorded the whole thing and stands by his original story.

https://twitter.com/i/status/1326891389079203840

You should be ashamed for repeating such propaganda.

BTW, Russell Strasser goes by Jeff Streeter on Twitter. His account was filled with Anti-trump political posts. His intent was never to actually investigate Hopkins' allegations of USPS voter fraud, but to bury them.

Welp, looks like Trump is officially fucked.

His only hope of somehow cheating democracy, overthrowing the election, and remaining in power illegally hinged on Republican-led legislatures in swing states ignoring the fact that Biden won in those states, and appointing pro-Trump Electors to the Electoral College instead.

But the leaders of those states' legislatures just said no to that plan.

GOP leaders in 4 states quash dubious Trump bid on electors

So I guess Trump will just keep pointlessly sending his lawyers to argue that tens of thousands of Biden votes get chucked on the grounds that Trump would really prefer to win, and judges will keep laughing the suits out of court until the Electoral College votes are cast, and then Trump will have the mother of all meltdowns and probably start throwing his own poop like an angry monkey.

Something is very wrong with these lads. In fact, many things are wrong.

Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes once stuck a dildo up his own ass to own the libs, on camera on his online TV show. (Not exactly sure how the libs were supposed to have gotten owned by this. But whatever. Gavin doesn't let himself get bogged down with details.)

So it appears that the Proud Boys is mainly an organization for aficionados of both fascism and dildos. Quite the odd combination.

To those of you who voted for Biden:
You had better OWN IT for the next four years if he wins.

1. I don't want to hear you complain about your taxes going up or gas prices doubling.
2. I don't want to hear you complain when your health insurance costs go up even further than they already are.
3. Don't complain when you bring home less in your paycheck because you're being penalized for climate justice.
4. Don't complain when you lose your job because 25 million illegal immigrants suddenly become legal and your employer decides to hire someone at a lower wage.
5. Don't complain when your job is just outright eliminated because the minimum wage is too high and your employer can no longer afford to stay open or even pay you.
6. Don't complain when your automotive or industrial job is eliminated because it's shipped back to China.
7. Don't complain when interest rates double or even triple and homes/automobiles are not as affordable as they use to be.
8. Don't complain when your stocks and 401k take a massive hit.
9. Don't complain when we are locked into more endless wars in the Middle East.
10. Don't complain when your otherwise safe communities are overrun by crime and start resembling Chicago, Portland, Seattle, and Baltimore.
11. Don't complain when the educational system goes down and higher education becomes unaffordable.

You obviously didn't vote your paycheck or your future. You voted your feelings. Unfortunately facts don't care about your feelings and, sadly, you will soon learn this under a Biden/Harris administration. JUST OWN IT.

If he had just asked us nicely, more of us would have marked the box next to his name electing him to a second term. What a pathetic loser he turned out to be!

He got caught playing the same game that we invented a long time ago.He lost because he was trying to make America "Great" again instead of looking ahead and making America better. I mean who drives looking in the rear view mirror?

Anyway, Donnie Favors lost because he couldn't tell the difference between a swamp and the gutter. He has turned this country into the ghetto.

Well, seeing that 1. I make less than $400,000 my taxes won't be going up. I drive a Tesla so I don't even know what current gas prices are nor do I care.
2. My health care is negotiated by my union and are locked in from year to year. The retirement and insurance committee will find the most reasonable deal because we have group pricing advantages.
3. Not sure what "climate justice" is but I'm pretty sure it won't affect my paycheck. I have a contract that guarantees wage rates.
4. Pretty sure I won't lose my job to an immigrant because they'll work for less because once again my wage rate is locked in by contract and cannot be arbitrarily changed nor can I be replaced unless I retire.
5. Once again, my position cannot be arbitrarily eliminated. Also, I've been there for over 20 years and we do everything by seniority so I'll be good.
6. Biden helped save the American automotive industry so why would he allow those jobs to be shipped overseas? But anyhoo, I don't work in that industry so no worries there.
7. Interest rates vary over time and there are some benefitial elements when they go up. Our savings interest rates used to be tied to overall interest rates and I was making a killing by just parking my money in my savings account. Ah, the good old Clinton years.
8. Stocks typically do better under Democratic administrations so there is that. Even in recent years. I know my investments did better under Clinton and Obama than Bush and trump.
9. We are locked into conflicts in Western Asia because Bush invaded a country that had nothing to do with 9-11. That probably wouldn't have happened under a president Gore.
10. I actually live in Chicago so it'll be kind of weird if Chicago didn't resemble Chicago but I'll keep that under advisement.
11. Higher education has been unaffordable for decades so how exactly would that be a change? Biden is actually pushing for free community college so that would benefit all of us.

Sounds like your life may become better if you voted Democratic and joined a union. Republicans typically oppose unions and their NLRB members aren't labor friendly so that is not a good thing. Under the Dems when their members were more labor friendly we actually get more money in our pockets because we get more grievance rulings in our favor which means either better working conditions or more money or both. As a unionist and an hourly laborer I tend to do much better under the Dems.

To those of you who voted for Biden:

Here's how this works, asshole: YOu shut the fuck up.

Anyone who supported trump, can shut up for now and forever. You had your shot, and we the results of it. So fuck you and fuck off.

You're no longer part of the political conversation in this country. You blew it, and now you don't count any more.

Now Andrew Cuomo is responsible for nursing home deaths in New York AND Florida? Which party has been running Florida? I forget.

The truth is that nursing homes in every state have been hit hard by COVID. And while more needs to be done to shield the residents, there simply is nothing that can completely protect them. If COVID is running rampant through society, it's inevitably going to find its way into nursing homes.

From WAPO, concerning 2017 koch bros taxcuts and higher taxes on the poors...

President Trump and Republican lawmakers have been heralding their bill as a win for hard-working Americans, but the JCT report casts doubt on that claim. Tax increases for households earning $10,000 to $30,000 would start in 2021 and grow sharply from there, JCT found. By 2027, most Americans earning $75,000 a year or less would be forced to pay more in taxes, while people earning more than $100,000 a year would continue to pay less. The report generated intense debate on Capitol Hill.

Most of the hit to poor and working-class Americans would come from the Senate Republicans’ push to insert a major health care change into the tax bill. Republicans are repealing the requirement that all Americans buy health insurance or face a penalty, a move that would lead to 13 million more uninsured Americans, the Congressional Budget Office has said. Many of those people earn modest incomes and currently receive tax credits and subsidies from the government to help them afford insurance. If the Senate GOP bill becomes law, premiums are expected to rise and millions would likely opt not to buy insurance anymore, meaning their tax breaks would go away, explained Thomas Barthold, head of the JCT.


So lying wingnuts on here are lying some moar.

Trump’s Refusal to Concede Complicates Runoffs

November 15, 2020 at 7:43 am EST By Taegan Goddard 70 Comments

Washington Post: “Georgia’s Jan. 5 runoffs will decide whether Perdue and Loeffler return to Washington, and whether the Senate has a slim Republican majority or a 50-50 split. President Trump’s refusal to concede the presidential race has, for now, added some confusion to the GOP’s message.”

“Democrats tell their audiences that victory would give Vice President-elect Kamala D. Harris a tie-breaking Senate vote, unlocking the party’s agenda. Republicans warn that there’d be no stopping the Democrats if the Senate seats are lost. But so long as Trump remains unwilling to concede, they’re unwilling to explain exactly why.”

The election is fake. The death toll is fake. The news is fake. The intelligence agencies lie. The FBI lies. The information on social media is real. Everything Trump says is real.

The cult is incredible. How do you deprogram 70 million people who don't know they're brainwashed?

Pretty hard to find the information but does anyone know offhand if the Republicans had any Blah people win house races? It’s impossible for them to have ZERO Blah people in the entire house. I mean they had one but he got fed up with the insane BS and retired.

That’s good, so in both the house and senate we have 0.008% representation.

To those of you who voted for Biden:
You had better OWN IT for the next four years if he wins.

3:00 PM
-----------------
We Biden voters have brains that function. I challenge you to produce even one conspiracy theory, or prediction that you and/or others who think like you have repeated all over the internet and elsewhere over the years.

Examples from Jan. 2015: Conservative predictions
It’s now 2015, nearly two years after Obama took the oath of office for the second time. A few years ago, prognosticators were very confident about what would happen to America by now because of Obama’s reelection. Let’s check in and see how their predictions turned out:
1. Gas was supposed to cost $5.45 per gallon.
In March 2012, on the floor of the United States Senate, Mike Lee (R-UT) predicted that if Obama was reelected gas would cost $5.45 per gallon by the start 2015. Lee said that gas prices would rise 5 cents for every month Obama was in office, ultimately reaching $6.60 per gallon.
Lee was not alone. Newt Gingrich, running for the GOP nomination, predicted that if Obama was reelected he would push gas to “$10 a gallon.” Gingrich said he would reduce gas prices dramatically by reversing Obama’s energy policies. Gingrich flanked himself with campaign signs promising $2.50 gas if he was elected.

2. In September 2012, Mitt Romney predicted that if Obama is reelected “you’re going to see chronic high unemployment continue four years or longer.” At the time, the unemployment rate was 8.1% and had been between 8.1% and 8.3% for the entire year.
What would breaking out of “chronic high unemployment” look like in a Romney presidency? Romney pledged that, if elected, he could bring the unemployment rate down to 6% by January 2017.
The unemployment rate currently stands at 5.8% and has been under 6% since September 2014. Since January 2013, the economy has created nearly 5 million new jobs.

3. The stock market was supposed to crash as predicted by investor Marc Faber, Rush Limbaugh, and others.
Immediately after Obama won reelection in November 2012, many commenters predicted that the stock market was toast. WE all know that didn't happen. The Dow Jones Industrial Average tripled during Obama's presidency.

I have dozens more failed predictions on hand including some from Bill Clinton's eight years as president. Hell, I can even post about the John Birch conspiracy of the 1950's when they claimed that President Eisenhower was a communist during his eight years in office.

So I suggest you take your bull shit elsewhere. No one here is buying it.

Enjoy your union affirmative-action privilege.  Most of America has neither.

"Now Andrew Cuomo is responsible for nursing home deaths in New York AND Florida?"

Cuomo's administration made rules which REQUIRED that COVID-positive patients be put back in nursing homes while they were contagious.  This was good for his state budget, you see; it got rid of burdens on the government.  It also killed off libtard voters.

No you don't.  You believe that blacks are oppressed rather than coddled, and Trayvon Martin was murdered rather than shot in self-defense.  That requires suppression of whatever brain function you have in favor of NPC programming.

-------------------
No, I don't believe these things, I KNOW these things are true. I've been around awhile and I've kept my eyes and ears open. I follow current events closely, so it's quite difficult for me to be influenced by outlandish conspiracy theories.

I remember the first conspiracy theory I ever encountered was during the Cold War. The John Birch society circulated the rumor that President Eisenhower was a secret communist and that he was selling us out to the Soviet Union. We all know how false that conspiracy theory was. The ones you and other Trumpies are peddling are just as false.
So get a grip, Anon. and try to think logically with whatever is left of your brain after Trump departs the White House.

Blacks are coddled? You mean like white guys who get to act like whiny bitches and carry guns into state houses with no recourse while we are shot in the streets while unarmed? Really fool? Travon Martin was minding his fucking business when an asshole with a gun decided to fuck with him thus he was murdered. Had Zimmermann done what he was advised to do by a 9-11 operator and allow the proper authorities handle the "situation" a kid would not have died but since he was a coddled negro that was ok. Whatever.

These morons don't even know who the Birchers are nor how the right just recycles their conspiracy theories to keep those morons voting Republican. There is a lot of stupid out there and now we're being held hostage because their feelings are hurt because we point out the fact that they're stupid.

Yes, you're coddled.

OUR guys have their weapons slung.  YOUR guys are shot while assaulting people.  There's a very serious difference, but you're too stupid to understand it.

Travon Martin was minding his fucking business

Standing around in the rain looking into people's houses is not "minding his fucking business".  It's "casing the joint".

an asshole with a gun decided to fuck with him thus he was murdered.

A neighborhood watchman inquired into his business, whereupon Martin ran.  "The guilty flee where no man pursueth."  Martin got clean away but returned and tried to pound Zimmerman's head into a concrete sidewalk, which is assault with intent to do great bodily harm AND attempted murder.  Shooting him at that point was 100% self-defense.

If you can't grasp this, you live in another reality and need to have your physical presence removed from this country BAMN.
