No! He didn't say that he had won already. You're lying. 

 

 

I said  Just heard Biden talking on radio as if he has won already.

 

Do you understand what AS IF means.

I understand you tried to distort what he said. That's not cool.

I’m rather enjoying this.

He said that he is confident that when the votes are counted that he will win.

That confidence is well founded.

You deleted the statement that I was lying, but too late as I quoted that already.

I strongly suggest you think before accusing other posters of lying in future.

I fear that Biden will squeak in, and we will suffer the consequences, but I've always believed that things these days get worse for the common man, not better.

I say that not because I think Biden is going to be doing anything too bad as I don't think he'll be president for the duration, but I can't post my opinion of Harris.

 

Be careful what you wish for.

It’s funny what upsets some folk given what they find acceptable.

 

Biden speaks ‘as if’ he has won already, Trump

declared flat out victory.

Whatever dude.

Intentionally distorting is very similar to lying.

I thought your comment was sleazy and didn't reflect the truth.

Yes but Biden was very clear that he wasn't saying he had won  already!

Guiliani now on Fox News talking in Pennsylvania about irregularities and voting fraud and national legal challenges

Corey Lewandowski … Pam Bondi.. Eric Trump..

They are all coming out of the woodwork talking about corruption

All the best people 

A bit sad

But I guess it shows they are aware that they are losing

Didn't hear Democrats doing this when it looked bad last night

?????????????

Biden was always ahead when I looked, so how exactly did it "look bad"?

Certainly he wasn't as far ahead as he might have expected, but that doesn't mean he was losing, IMO.

I'm sure that if he had looked like losing his team would be doing the exact same thing.

[thaibeachlovers]

Looks like Biden is going to win. I wonder what all the anti Trumpers will find to post about in future when Trump is gone?

When I went to bed last night in Australia Biden was well behind in  Michigan and the consensus seemed to be that Trump was favourite. Biden was behind in Wisconsin Michigan and a long way behind in Pennsylvania. It was known that he would come back but the degree to which he would do so was not known. 

I am just saying that at that point you didn't have Democrats crying foul about Georgia or North Carolina or about the fact it takes a while to count votes. Now Trump has his team out there claiming corruption when the votes are still being counted. Hopefully it is just amusing but if it riles up his base it could get ugly.

Again I have no problem with asking for a recount but wild claims of corruption by Guiliani are just nonsense.

Probably working on unity learning about and working through differences healthcare issues ect but my hope is mainly working on healing our differences and moving forward and healing our alliances 

[Fat is a type of crazy]

Actually I need to lighten up. Not everyday you wake up thinking there's four years of Trump to find out it's likely to be President Biden. Disconcerting that so many thought Trump was the best solution to America and the worlds woes but almost time to partay

I went to bed last night thinking that Trump was up for another four years,when I looked on CNN at midday it was all Biden.Happy days.

[thaibeachlovers]

264 for Biden, so one has to accept that he ( or rather Harris, IMO ) has probably won. I expect the recounts court battles etc to delay the confirmation though. I won't disguise that I'm very disappointed for all the reasons I've posted in the past.

 

This is going to be a make or break for the US, IMO. If Biden gets it wrong, the consequences could be severe- there are going to be a lot of very PO Trump supporters out there in the red states. If Biden does not govern for ALL Americans there will be unhappy times ahead, IMO.

 

It would help if he does a Clinton and makes peace with and work with the senate, rather than fight them and resort to his pen.

 

Also, let's not forget that Trump is president till January, so the fat lady has a while to wait before breaking into song.

Trump won't be gone from the news for a long time.

Biden will try to govern for all Americans, something Trump has never done.

Pennsylvania has already a legal case pending at the SC by the GOP. But Pennsylvania going to Trump will severely limit the chances of overturning the national results for the Trump team.

His indictment, arrest, trial, conviction and incarceration, would be my bet.

Very good article on how democrats (without capital) should understand how this election unfolded, and how to move forward.

The dems got their heads handed to them.  The polls were wrong.  Luckily, looks like Biden with be POTUS.  Should know shortly.

Sure he will.

But you can lead a horse to water etc.

The main impetus of the toxic and divisive 45 movement which sadly has not been vanquished is about white nationalism and white resentment and fear of increased diversity. Biden isn't God. He can't magically make people motivated by evil impulses to be good.

Pretty much so but there remains a slim chance that the democrats can take over the senate by winning two runoffs in Georgia.

I'll be blown away, and lose even more confidence in democracy, if that crazy QAnon GOP rep gets elected.  What a nutter.  And you'd have to be nutter to vote for her.

Hasn't she already won?

Thanks for bringing up Q.

They're dangerous and crazy and there are an awful lot of them. Almost all of them are 45 fans.

No man including Biden has the power to heal that kind of crazy.

In other words even though it looks probable that we will have a positive outcome to fire 45, our national nightmare is far from over.
