Blimey, Trump scraped in with 51% of the vote and you're calling that a definition of an American? 

No, that’s not what I said, but you being a liar and whatnot so you don’t care

Say what ?  51 b a majority !Actually he got a tad  below 50!

But he swept the 7 crucial Swing States .

Sweep , Sweep , count them, 7x .

Which provided the electoral landslide needed to beat the installed choice, kHarris.

51% is not a landslide.

Mr. Jefferies is the dem minority leader! The dems lost and now they

call the extremist in the party to fight in the streets.Protesters have in the past turned rioters for months in 2020.

I think Jefferies needs to go to the well !

He must be held accountable for his divisiveness ! He must be censured!

I would like to see the minority leader in the senate replaced. Chuck Schumer is way too weak tea for these tragic times where we have a wannabe fascist dictator as president trying very hard to control everything in the government based on his insane ego alone, with checks and balances destroyed. He mouths some right things but his tone has the passion of wet noodle. There isn't much minority leaders can do at this point but of the little they can do, Jeffries is stepping up and Schumer is past his use by date.

 

As far as fight in the streets, I don't see that as a call to violence. I see that as a call to protest. If he starts saying blood in the streets, send me a memo. Look what's happening in the country of Georgia. The street protests there against the Russian puppet that Putin pushed into power is the only hope to temper that evil.

What checks and balances have been removed to allow trump to be dictator? 

I find all of this is them against us, such a sad situation.  I have friends from grade school that have stopped talking to each other over politics. It’s sad that the democrats take a position that if you don’t agree with them they hate you. All they say is  agree with me because I’m right and you’re wrong.

 

do I like trump? not really, he says stupid stuff, but the democrats had nothing. I listened to 

Kamala and wanted to give her chance but she had nothing. She couldn’t even make a coherent statement. 

 

unfortunately we are at a place where if one group supports something doesn’t matter if its good for the people or not, the other group is against it. Both sides need to stop fighting with each other and work  on issues together to help the people!

 

 

 

“Dems are acting precivilizational !

 

Dnc devolves into chaos!

37 % of Americans favor dems”.

 

 

Victor Davis Hanson brings sense to the insanity of the Dems democracy!

Fighting in the streets isnt the answer!

Burning cities.

Burning churches .

Trying to rush the White House grounds.

Causing billions of dollars in damage!

Injuring thousands of police!

Murdering innocent citizens 

Torching police precincts!

Remembering the lefts rath in 2020 above.

Hmm,  everyone but the democrats are racist.  Don’t forget the other democrat key phrase of republicans being “nazis”.  
 

What I find  curious is that Biden kept saying nobody is above the law, but is whole time in office he protected people that entered the USA illegally and then prior to leaving office…all the family pardons.

Not sure calling people nazis is counted as racism.

I’m not fighting with anyone, I don’t have a problem what someone believes or thinks. I might not agree with someone and may even think they’re crazy, but I’ll respect them as a person and not unfriend  them.

I’m sad that life long friends stop beings friends because they have a different opinion or think differently.  If I like pizza and you hate it, are you going to stop being my friend?  It seems the democrats are only happy if you agree with them, if you don’t agree with them then you’re a racist, fascist or a nazi. 

 

Fascism in the USA? The USA is way too big for that to happen.  There are 3 branches of government in place to prevent such a thing.  Then each state has their own government officials and then you have local government officials in all the cities and towns.  the  USA is just too big for one person or one party to get control over all of the federal government and then also all the states and local governments. 

The opposition to maga fascism is obviously and understandably in deep crisis and confusion now. 

It lacks a leader.

Jeffries , Schumer, Harris, AOC, and certainly Biden aren't that.

The key conflict looks to be whether to go more hard core populist but on the left or whether to pivot to the right.

Clearly DC establishment insiders are out.

The people demand authenticity regardless. 

I'm not sure at this point what is best to regain power or even if it will be possible to regain power after the maga fascists Orbanize/Putinize the election system. The midterms look to be the most consequential in American history though.

A big expectation which I share is that Trump is so horrible for example his recent cut off of all Medicaid portals, his truly disgusting response to the DC air crash, etc. that there will be a tsunami of organic backlash.
