On the left side, though, there are perhaps ten or more channels able to make a living. So, because left-leaning viewers ultimately have many more choices, they DON'T benefit from that funnel-effect that pushes all their viewes into one place with massive ratings!

But if you compare overall viewership, instead........... left vs right........... there's no comparison. The number of people choosing one of many left-leaning outlets for their news instead of FOX....... completely blows FOX away!

Besides, both parties were well aware of the reality of the electoral college system when the election began. In any case, not many countries use "popular vote" to choose their leader. Canada doesn't- in the last election the Conservative Party actually got more votes than the Liberals, but the Liberals won the election. This can happen in any country that uses a parliamentary system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if this makes you uncomfortable.....well, sort of. Andy McCarthy on January 6 committee hearing: 'They're building a very strong case' They're building a very strong case on this idea of corruptly impeding Congress from doing its job. And based on what I heard today, leaving incitement aside, you know, it's a federal crime to intimidate or assault members of Congress. And I continue to think the important testimony that came out today was just how much information President Trump had about how armed to the teeth this crowd was and his reaction that, well, what's the problem with that? They're not coming for me. I'm not the one who's threatened by all this. And then he encourages them. He not only encourages them to go to the Capitol, he wants to lead them. I kept thinking the thought of him leading a mob down to the Capitol. What would the Capitol Police have done if the president of the United States was leading the mob? How could they conceivably have contained that? So many hypotheticals cited by Andy M and none of the above is even close to being corroborated. How about insurrection, has that topic faded off into the abyss? McCarthy does say this: "federal crime to intimidate or assault members of Congress." He's probably made an accurate statement, assault is illegal, that's just brilliant. I direct your attention back to the illegal protests at SCOTUS justice homes after the roe v wade leak and prior to the ruling announcement, totally illegal under Title 18, Section 1507 of the U.S. Code but Garland slept right through it. You figure this out and when you do just holler at me at which time I will explain how and why the shouting and hollering about "insurrection" is gone silent now.

Voices: Republicans wanted another January 6 after Roe v Wade was overturned. They didn’t get it ???? "They desperately want to create a moral equivalency between any violence that might be committed in the wake of the overturning of Roe v Wade — none of which has so far included riots, injuries or deaths — and the insurrection on January 6, during which multiple people were injured and died. Conservatives desperately want to draw a parallel because doing so would lead the public to believe that the violence on January 6 and the attempts to steal the presidency that preceded it are not unique to the American right’s bloodlust" https://news.yahoo.com/voices-republicans-wanted-another-january-212137813.html Edited July 2, 2022 by candide 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same in many countries. Local elections and national are treated differently. Countries that use a parliamentary system such as in most of Europe, Canada etc., do so in an attempt for the leader to represent the entire nation, rather than small chunks. But you knew that. Also, so did Hillary Clinton in 2016 when she ran one of the worst campaigns in US political history. Can't blame the system when both sides knew the rules beforehand.

If Trump skates (like he usually does) then they look petty and vindictive. There is a bruising fight for the GOP nomination. Trump may win and is elected again. If Trump gets tarred enough, he doesn't run. Then the GOP can relax and dig into their deeeeeeeeep bench of young, energetic, and charismatic presidential hopefuls. The Democrats are forced to reckon with the prospect of an 80 plus year old Biden trying to fend off his nimble and photogenic opponent. The GOP wins again. Or the Democrats dump Biden/convince him to not run again. Who do they have? Can you see Kamala Harris trying again to win the nomination. She got zero delegates last time and was a proven lightweight. Who is left? Revenge of the Hillary- third time is the charm? Lost to Obama, lost to Trump, now lose again to the GOP. Not a great legacy for her at all. As has been explained, Trump's actions on and before January 6 showed him to be a criminal or an idiot, or both. He has been shown to be unfit for office. The Democrats have plenty of potential candidates for President, and hopefully this time they will get the over 70's of the party to get out of the way and let younger candidates compete. That's what they should have done in 2020. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
