Ladyhippolyta88: That's the old Republican party! Stacy Abrams herself did not accept her "fair loss." Democracy flourishes when most of the populace are invested in it. That stopped happening a long time ago. Right now, it is tribal. For that to end, this current system needs a reboot, not a so-called "return to normalcy". Normalcy is what led to this in the first place. So yes, going forward, most Republicans will not concede. The PA GOP legislature refused to swear in a Dem legislator this week over fraud concerns. And so it will continue to escalate until this BS stops. The Parliament in England started as a quasi-institution formed by the Crown who held total control. Over time, the Parliament became the primary authority of the State and the Crown a figure-head. Those who think this form of democracy where the urban population decide how the rural population live is sacred and will never change will come to a rude awakening. Attached is the Georgia Senate Runoff map that apparently gave Warnock the win. And more Democrats are running away from deep-blue states to Red state cities to f*ck with their elections and policies. Then they'd tell you it's minorities and suburban moms. Tell me, how long do you think ordinary conservatives will stomach that crap until they say enough. -Lord

happney65: E easy nai Bernie no b President. Nonentity! Keep going down on Dem establishment c*ck. In the late 2000's/early 2010's, we had Occupy Wall Street and the Tea Party. One couldn't win a simple primary and have turned SJWs on Twitter/Reddit without electoral value, the other installed a President and 3 SCJs! There's a reason why Trump appointed the likes of Sessions, Mattis, Tillerson, Scaramucci and co. In your lifetime, you'd see the neo-Tea Party become a dominant political force while progressives remain lap dogs. -Lord |

LordAdam16:Bernie bros not turning up in 2016 was the reason orange Reagan won in 2016. Cry rigging all you want - fact is Okrika Reagan got his ass whooped. You'd have to ask yourself why/how the Tea Party would let their candidate get rigged out of the white house. A Neo -Tea party isn't going to do shit. All Dems need to do is keep fielding reasonable candidates that won't put independents off and they're good. The likes of Ted Cruz can keep gargling on Trump's balls for I care. He'll never be president anytime soon. Josh Hawley better be smart enough to find a balance or he'll be another washed Ted Cruz. The likes of Tim Scott at least are trying to play both sides instead of going all out gargling Okrika Reagan's balls like the likes of Graham, Cruz, Hawley, etc. 5 Likes |

edi287: Rigging is not a new thing. I was chilling when W Bush rigged himself in. That did not save his legacy. Getting Trump in was a proof of concept. You needed coalitions, a once-in-a-hundred-years pandemic, and both establishments+intelligence agencies+mass+social media to take back the White House and still lost House seats and have to use a tie-breaker in the Senate which is a rarity. To be clear, there are Tea Party faithfuls who think it's the end of the world, but I'm not one of them. I approach events over longer horizons, not two year election cycles. You're saying liberals will never be able to install a true progressive so as not to spook off Independents. But the Tea Party was able to install a constitutionalist and Independents signed on. Bush took America to a fake war and gave the globe the Great Recession and we had a neo-Tea Party President 8 years later. You really want to bet that Trump will be the last neo-Tea Party President in American history? Or do you think we have to look far to find a charismatic figure with Trump populist policies? For crying out loud, Trmp won more votes and got more minority votes than his last showing. Apparently, he got more minority votes in Georgia in November than both either Republican candidates in the runoff. Also he apparently lost by 12k votes with 5 million votes cast in November but both Rep candidates will apparently lose by many times that figure with only about 4.6m votes cast! That's at least 200,000 Trump 2016 and 2020 voters who apparently said; you know what, Mitch and the GOP can go to hell! There are Trump supporters alright and they're waiting for the Freedom Caucus to institute a hostile takeover of the GOP and hold the reins in Republican states. That's what happened in Texas and Florida. If you like conduct a million elections there, Trump will still defeat Biden. And you'd know the projections before 11PM EST on election night. No time for mail-in ballot dumping, ballot curing, and early voting. That's why when I say Kemp and Ratface are done, it's not speculation. Their political careers are over. Likewise in Arizona. Trump cannot get better results in Florida, Texas, Iowa, Ohio, even North Carolina; then supposedly "lose" reliably red Arizona and Georgia, and then establishment cronies will say it's because of Trump's tweets or character. So those other five states that were called actual tossups are not in America, they're in Mexico? And you expect local conservatives to swallow that odious turd! Because you think they're as ret*rded as you who believed Bernie wasn't another milquetoast grifter. -Lord |

LordAdam16:Excuses, Excuses. The trends were there for everyone to see that Georgia and Arizona would eventually turn blue. Next up on the list is Texas. You guys keep talking about how Trump got more minority votes, etc yet keep forgetting that Biden broke records too. The guys that stayed back in 2016 simply got tired of orange Reagan. They got the SC seats and judges and will survive without Trump. Drop another Trump like candidate and nothing is going to change. Dems will not be fielding anyone as hated as Hillary ever again. Funny how the likes of Florida voted for "socialist" policies like $15 min wage, etc and how nobody gave a shit about how "socialist" a $2k stimulus check is. I just remembered the exit poll on questions on Fox News about things like Immigration, etc...I was shocked by the results and started wondering if I was watching CNN. There's nothing any of you will tell me that me that will make me believe that Trump was rigged out of office. Why would Dems be so stupid to do that and not rig the congress? Freedom Caucus can not do ish. The likes of Murkowski, Sasse, etc will defy Trump and will not lose a primary when elections come. There are levels to this ish. You comedians underestimated Biden and are paying for it. Dems will increase their seats in the house come next year. Na here we dey. 5 Likes |

LordAdam16: You are taking a victory lap on a movement that got to install a one-term President, by chance. What you are seeing is the illusion of entrenchment of any sort of Tea-party movement. This illusion is fostered by Trump's ability to distort reality. We give that to him. However, just like the Nazis were defeated, even when it seemed impossible at some point, all forms of extremism - right or left - will come to their well-deserved demise. Even when 74m people rise in support of it, 90 million people will rise against it, and establish a structure that ensures that demise stays put. The moderate position will always prevail because there are far too many people with common sense. What you want to happen and what you think will happen are two different things. 7 Likes 1 Share |

I understand that's your game to keep receiving attention but stop trying to lump ideologies and things together all in the name of trying to engage in a discussion. Pick a line that you are familiar with, hold unto it instead of being dispersed here and there with different things that are incoherent to the issue of discussion. By the way, I was referring to your assertion that pastors married more than one wife in Nigeria but you haven't been able to name one instead you were asking him if he doesn't know.

Republicans turn on Trump after Georgia loss “Trump is the cause of this, lock, stock and barrel,” said one Republican strategist. “But when you’re relying on someone to win you a Senate race that also lost statewide eight weeks prior, you’re not in a position of strength.” The immediate recrimination is emblematic of the complicated GOP dynamics that have emerged after Trump’s loss in the November election. Fissures are forming as Republicans decide whether it's useful to cling to Trump — even as he tries to subvert an election — or to distance themselves. And if the Georgia races are any indication, it appears Republicans are willing to turn on Trump if he can’t reliably turn out the vote for candidates in the months and years ahead. When asked why Republicans didn’t prevail on Tuesday, a senior Senate Republican aide simply said: “Donald J.

nateevs: Eeyah! This one is giving himself a pep talk. The Nazis rose to power on the back of the promise to make Germany the predominant power in Europe. They didn't succeed with their direct confrontation, but they inflicted enough damage that their enemies offered whatever they needed so they never had a reason to go that extreme again. 70 years later, Germany is in fact the predominant power in Europe using the resources of their former enemies and the British Empire collapsed. Today, the same Britain is running out of a Germany-controlled European Union. And France is threatening that if there are no reforms, they too will leave. That's an extreme example, but that's the thing about deeply-rooted movements. Change MUST occur. It can be delayed, but it is inevitable. Thinking American cities will hold the cards forever is the exact kind of arrogance the monarchies in Europe had until the American Revolution happened. So yea, of course we'd take a victory lap over installing a neo-Tea Party President. Ask progressives what happened to the last President they installed-JFK. The next Tea Party President is coming, and I can assure you, he'd make Trump seem like Washington. Since e b say na only strong-hand dey make una get sense! What will happen will happen. What I or you want has nothing to do with it. You don't alienate half of any major power and expect to hold hands and sing Kumbaya forever. It has never happened before in history. It will not start now because Jack Dorsey founded Twitter. The Roman establishment also welcomed minorities/immigrants, gave them citizenship, and used them to seize power from time to time. It's the same immigrants that sacked Rome, and it was the citizens that opened the gates, while the establishment figures fled. You minions b making sh*t trend on Twitter when your liberal elites have built fully-stocked bunkers in New Zealand. Read up on it: Just type "bunkers in new zealand". Moderates?! What a joke. You've forgotten France had moderates when they packed German Jews and shipped them back to Nazi Germany until Hitler decided he'd try to be the next Napoleon or that America was chilling while Hitler ravaged from 1939 to 1941 until the over-ambitious Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor which prompted them to join the War. Or that our friends in Spain who had no problem committing genocide in South America were neutral during the War. No b only moderates, na moderators! -Lord |
