Popular Post Jingthing Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) 3 hours ago, Fat is a type of crazy said: I think Trump just wants to come across as Boss man in charge of his world. That's why he's being seen to be playing golf as though he hasn't got a care in the world and partly why he'll sack some people like this. I actually think it could be much more serious than that. While I don't think he will be able to cling onto power defying the awesome credibility of Biden's win in both the electoral college tally and popular votes, from Mr. Trump's POV this is his entire world crashing in around him. His presidency. His massive power. The adoring crowds of fans enjoying his rallies of worship for he who always wins. Doesn't work for a loser. His family business. His family brand. His fortune. Debts called in that he can't pay. His very freedom in the need to possibly face multiple felony criminal charges without the shield of the presidency. Yes in my opinion we're at risk of the entire country being torn apart for the self interest of one toxcally narcissistic man. Civil wars have been started for less.

Any of these people can go to Fox or the few other such networks (I'm not going to promote them my naming them). DT will either go with one of them or start his own. I'm impressed by Cavuto's show of cojones (hey, get your mind out of the gutter!), or perhaps it was his producer's call. Miz Kayleigh was on Fox before this job, there is a clip somewhere of what can be considered her audition vid, sucking up to the orange guy in a most disgusting display. I hope she goes to RT. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Proboscis Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 Being fired by Donald Trump, especially for refusing to put American troops onto the streets (when it was completely unnecessary) is likely to improve the prospects of this person and make him famous. I put this in the same category as the billboards in New York over which Ivanka and her husband wanted to sue, even though they told the truth about them. Suddenly, having been read by only a few hundred thousand New Yorkers, the headlines were now read all across America. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a bit of history. Trump when he won the Electoral College vote in 2016 became the 5th man to occupy the WhaiteHouse without receiving the majority of the popular vote. The previous one was George Bush and involved "hanging chads" in Florida, as I recall. The three previous to Bush were all in the 1800s. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As has been pointed out to you many, many times before, you are entitled to your own opinion; you're just not entitled to your own facts. And the facts are Biden has secured enough of the popular vote as well as the crucial Electral College vote to be assured of the White House come January. No amount of frivilous lawsuits and unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud is going to change that fact and no amount of delaying the inevitable is going to change the inevitable. Your guy lost.

Popular Post PattayaJames Posted November 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2020 10 hours ago, Jingthing said: The irony is that getting fired by this president especially at this time in his declining career can easily be seen as a positive for those fired. Reports are that understandably white house staff are looking for new jobs. There is something called the "Trump stain" that they will carry for the rest of their lives that will hurt their future chances. Getting fired by him goes at least a little way to cleaning that stain. This would be part of the uniting and healing that we are hearing so much about then. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of the apparent reality of the weather swirling around me I refuse to accept hurricanes or tornadoes until they have been officially announced by a stable genius whom I have blind faith in. I'm a stickler for truth and facts first, which is why I've always taken my news only directly from Trump tweets. Hell, I don't really accept word from the National Weather Service (or the AP News Service) until it's verified, with a sharpie in his hand, by my fearless leader on a map in the oval office. I'm kinda a purist I guess. IMO somebody has to stand up for The Truth.

For Trump perhaps (he has got a lot to answer for after all) but not neccessarily his supporters. There's a realisation that over 70 million Americans still thought he was the best bet for another 4 years and that has to be addressed at some point. That realisation will require careful thought and understanding as you can't write off 70 million people as all right wing conspiracy theorists and red-knecks.

I think that most of these people still believe that Joe Biden dismissed that prosecutor in Ukraine to protect his son despite the huge amounts of evidence that disprove it and the lack of it that says otherwise. I see repeated references to the billion dollars that Hunter Biden got out of China. I wonder how many now believe in a supercomputer that has corrupted the elections. No one is ever going to convince these people otherwise. Keep in mind that lots of them believed that Obama was born in Kenya and wasn't really elegible to be President. Lots still do. And they voted for the guy who led that ridiculous movement for quite a while. In fact, they voted twice for him, Twice!

Trump has never experienced the normality of the vast majority so has no capacity or willingness to acknowledge anything but satisfaction derived from the delusional adulation he infects his sycophants with. his sycophants with ! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
