It’s the GREATER percentage that matters along with the much greater electoral votes that matter.

Almost doesn’t count in this business.

 

Trump received the majority.  That’s why Harris certified (painfully) the election results and Trump will be sworn in as POTUS on January 20th, 2025.

 

Now, read that and weep.

 

 

 

 

It must rankle just a little, that he only won by a sliver......especially when you consider how bad Harris was....?

Climate change may be real, but there's some question as to whether the changes we're now seeing are just small blips in the grand scheme of things, or significant.  Over millions and millions of yers, the earth's climate has fluctuated.  

 

This article is interesting and contains a long term chart of the earth's temperature going back millions of years.  From the looks of it, we may be entering another ice age.  Of course, we'll ll be long gone by the time anyone finds out.  Maybe we could use more CO2, not less.

 

https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidbressan/2024/09/22/new-study-shows-485-million-years-of-earths-temperature/

2023 was the warmest the planet has been since records began in 1850. I suspect the reconstruction is faulty, as it is showing an average global temperature of less than 10 C now, when it is actually about 15 C.

 

The study reminds me of an anecdote about Sir Randolph Churchill, father of Winston Churchill. Seizing a barometer showing FINE, he threw it out of a window into the pouring rain, exclaiming " There, you damned fool, see for yourself!".

 

The CO2 as plant food argument has been put forward by deniers for years. If it was true, the rate of CO2 takeup would match the rate we are generating CO2 from fossil fuels. It's not.

I wouldn’t call 312/226 a sliver.

 

Bottom line.  He defeated her.

 

Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.

 

I don’t call this a sliver.

312/226.  While you may not consider this a landslide, I certainly do.

 

That’s 86 more.  Not including California or the rest of the traditional blue states.

 

He swept the swing states AKA “A clean sweep “ as the jowls of the predictors on the forum dropped to a level never seen before.

Blindingly obvious surely, even to a MAGA fan......there is something seriously wrong with the EC set up.

 

I have no doubt some of the MAGA crowd would be rioting in the Capitol had Trump had won the popular vote but lost due to the EC.....like that would ever happen...555

The wildfires are raging in Southern California, more than 2,000 homes have been destroyed, 10 people have died and the fires continue to rage on, and what do we get from the man who will be leading our nation in two weeks? Criticism of the governor and an absolute desire to make this political.

 

Is this his version of diplomacy, is this his version of decency, humanity and sympathy? Is this really the best he can do and the best that he has to offer in the way of leadership? 

 

As thousands flee their homes in California due to wildfires, US President-Elect Donald Trump has launched a scathing attack on Governor Gavin Newsom, saying "this is all his fault" and he must quit. Earlier, Trump alleged that the Governor's policies were to blame for the situation in some of the US's most prominent cities. The Governor has hit back, saying people are fleeing and the President-Elect's response is to politicise it.

Among the worst-hit areas is Los Angeles, home to top Hollywood celebrities. At least five people have been killed and 2,000 buildings damaged as firefighters struggle to control the blaze. Los Angeles County Fire Chief Anthony Marrone said they don't have enough firefighters to tackle the situation. "We're doing the very best we can. But no, we don't have enough fire personnel in LA County between all the departments to handle this," he said, according to an AFP report.

 Appalling mischaracterisation, where was Biden? At the beach on a deckchair?  you lost suck it up!

Personally it doesn't worry me - not being a yankie, so no tears from me just feeling sad for all the decent American people that have to put up with the village idiot for the next few years.
