An opinion piece and the woke BBC. Talk about grasping at straws. Sorry but the thread you've started lacks any credibility.

Like every other one the Leftist losers start.

They don't like Trump, he's a threat to the political class and wants to reform the institutions that comprise the trough they've been feeding at for decades ... this sums up the medias hand wringing and yours it seems.

Are you old enough to remember when Bill Clinton won the election with a mere 43% of the popular vote back in 1992?  They liked Clinton and Time magazine called it a "Mandate for Change".

Regardless of what you read, Trump has a mandate too.


 

 

Oh my! To me, what I read there is evidence of next level naivete.

 

The slurping at the trough from guys like Musk, Thiel, Griffin, etc. is going to top Krakatoa on the decibel meter.

 

47 got the votes from people he himself calls "losers". They no longer have any value whatsoever to him.

 

47 has long sought acceptance from people he wishes he could be, which is to say successful in their own right, not silver spoon legacy kids. He will do whatever it takes to win their praise, and they will give him all the false praise he seeks, so long as it benefits them. Just like he sucked up to Jeffrey Epstein, he now sucks up to the new elite.

 

Once somebody has a few 'units', he or she is immune from the havoc and carnage they know 47 will create. There's a reason so many built bogout bunkers in New Zealand or Hawaii or other isolated places. They will take whatever largesse 47 gives them, always ready to gas up the Gulfstream and let the masses have at each other.

What you call the 'mess [Dems] have inflicted on the country' is what others call growth and low unemployment.

You think drag queen storytime in kindergarten is a good thing?

And you also support women killing their babies?

Right because the billionaire donor class wouldn't have had Kamala in their pocket. Love the liberals and their take on money. Republicans go from knuckle dragging poverty infested Walmart shoppers to the rich elite depending on which scrip they read from.

Actually, both are true. The GOP is a Big Tent party. Unlike the Democrats, who have devolved into catering exculsively to the limousine liberal class.

Wow. A psychologist would have a field day with that one.

Yes. It reinforces the important view for these impressionable children that gender is a fluid concept and that women are nothing but overly exaggerated caricatures with breasts like two piglets under a blanket, fright wigs and clown makeup.

Interviews with Donald Trump's voters reveal a dark truth about the "mandate" his supporters say the president-elect has been granted, a new report reveals.

 

'Deception and denial': Voter views reveal dark truth about Trump's 'mandate'

 

How big is Donald Trump’s mandate?

 

data suggests it was a much closer contest than he and his allies are suggesting.

His communications director Steven Cheung has called it a "landslide" victory. Yet it emerged this week that his share of the vote has fallen below 50%, as counting continues.

Trump won not only the Presidency, but also the popular vote, and control of both the Senate and the House. The size of the mandate that this gives him is unquantifiable. It will depend entirely on the support he gets from both main parties during his tenure. Impossible to say at this stage how much that may be.
