The Dem Circular Firing Sqaud Has Started

I have to say, it is fun, and it is going to be fun to watch!  Liberal left leaning legacy media is going nuts!

[kallend 2,027]

Probably a good thing.

 

Being so inept as to allow a bigoted lying criminal, whose business acumen resulted in bankrupting a casino, to beat them, suggests it's time for a change at the top.

The ineptitude runs deep in the Democrat party, just take a look at all of the lefties on this forum who thought Harris was a great candidate.

Please name them. My sense is we thought she’d be a capable place holder.

The choice of candidate made absolutely no difference to you. Your only argument during this entire election cycle has been that bringing Trump back will magically bring the pre-covid economy back. What does Harris have to do with that?

Just go to the “Praise for Kamala Harris” thread

I love your disdain for me, the 2300 more counties Trump won this time.  Add to this fact, Trump got many more votes in nearly every demographic plus, he recieved increase in vote numbers in every state.

The people saw through the bs the left spewed.  All the law bs suits brought against him helped him win in my opinion.

 

Oh, and let us not forget he won the popular vote by a significant margin.

 

So many stupid people huh John...

Another data point. Star county in Texas. It is on the southern boarder of Texas. It has the highest percentage of Latino population in all the country. Last time it went Republican was 1892. It went for Trump!

Harris is and was a better candidate than Trump. 

The fact Trump won so many votes is a reflection on American people and not in a good way. 

By all accounts it looks like Trump will have absolute power, let’s check back in after 2 years and see what he’s achieved, and how things are going. 

I mean the war in Ukraine is supposed to be over tomorrow if he keeps his word https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/watch-trump-promises-to-settle-war-in-ukraine-if-elected

The Europeans need to increase their investment in defense. If not spending money on Russian lessons might be a good plan B.

How much the Europeans spend on defense will have zero impact on Trump about to hand parts of Ukraine to Russia.

How is that relevant to Trump’s promise to end the Ukraine war in a day as soon as he is president elect?

Also just because the US likes to spend trillions on weapons doesn’t mean everyone else should. And to be blunt about it, if they are going to then support the European defence industry not American

The goal posts will always move. Trump made the claim…

I’ve had enough of Trump, I hoped it would be over. Probably about time to swap out my news subscriptions for a pornhub subscription. If I’m going to spend 4 years watching people get screwed, may as well enjoy it

And how will Trump do that? The most he can do is stop arming Ukraine, then it would be up to European countries to fill the gap.

So in short Trump was full of shit saying he could end it in a day …

by openly stating he will not honour NATO agreements and specifically not back NATO countries when attacked.

And how does that hand Ukraine to Russia? The EU vs Russia is not even a contest. Population, GDP, and military capabilities of the EU/NATO dwarf those of Russia. Europe can step up and support the largest country in Europe (not named Russia) without our help.

(personally I support US aid for Ukraine and I hope Biden expedites delivery of the multi billion dollar aid package and relaxes restrictions on the use of American weapons. Given who the President Elect is I don’t think there is a risk of escalation from Putin)

Agreed on your post except for this last sentence. I hope I'm wrong though.

If Trump removes support from Ukraine, why do you think Putin would then not take parts of other countries?

He didn't say which day.

I agree that the average American would indeed not understand the difference between a time frame and a moment in time.

If Trump removes support from Ukraine it would fall to Germany, France, GB, Poland, Italy, Finland, Sweden, Austria, Belgium and Spain, to step up and fill the gap. 
Russia is spent, its military is in tatters, its economy is in shambles and it is in a demographic death spiral. Russia is weak and getting weaker, it is no longer the big bad Bear of the Soviet Union.

➡️ Harris didn’t outperform Biden in a single county

➡️ Just 32% of voters identified as Democrats 

➡️ Trump won first-time voters by 9 points

Demonstrably untrue. All five counties in Massachusetts went for Harris. Winning the majority is not the same as winning all, unless, of course, you simply don’t count disagreeing votes. And the number who identify as Republicans is about the same, according to that bastion of liberal press, Forbes (Link).

I didn say she did not win those counties. Simply stated she under performed Biden
