TRUMP TO INFINITY AND BEYOND HQ - The Great and Positive Place (13 Viewers)

lazyike said:
I am not a fan of Sen McConnell but he was spot on right before the electoral count process took place Jan 6th when he took the floor.

“The Constitution gives us here in Congress a limited role. We cannot simply declare ourselves a national board of elections on steroids. The voters, the courts, and the states have all spoken. They've all spoken. If we overrule them, it would damage our republic forever. This election actually was not unusually close.

Just in recent history, 1976, 2000, and 2004 were all closer than this one. The Electoral College margin is almost identical to what it was in 2016. If this election were overturned by mere allegations from the losing side, our democracy would enter a death spiral. We would never see the whole nation accept an election again. Every four years would be a scramble for power at any cost.”

You guys need to stop this false claim for our country, please. I actually think that the moderators should step in and stop this. There is nothing patriotic about continuing this threat to our democracy.

So you don’t want people to express their opinions if you disagree. THAT does not sound very American.

I want you to come to grips with how and why McConnell and the majority of Americans believe the fact that some will not accept the election results is a threat to our democracy. We have many debates on this forum but few if any pose the threat that your false claim does.

What threat does my opinion cause? 
 

How is this alleged threat any worse than two partisan impeachment attempts or using the Russian lie to undermine Trump’s entire presidency?

I don’t buy Biden received 81+ million legal and unique votes. That doesn’t mean I am storming the Capitol.

It cannot be explained any better than what McConnell said. I shall not have a debate about whether overthrowing our government is something to debate.

As I understand it Donald wanted to pardon Assange  but was persuaded to let that go . Years ago I was against Assange but have changed my opinion over the years

yeah.  Well one of Trump’s huge donors, Sheldon Adelson, was involved in a plot to spy on Assange by conspiring with embassy security to feed audio/video recordings back to one of his casinos.  He was likely feeding this back to the CIA, who’d played with the idea of assassinating/kidnapping him.  Seems like Trump just wants to play both sides of the fence and look like the good guy.  In reality he was steeped in corruption. 

Even in a recent interview with Candace Owens he wouldn’t express support for Assange or Snowden directly, just that he was more sympathetic to one than the other but wouldn’t say which.

Whatever he did worked, thank God.  If the two of them run again, I’m hoping whatever bag of tricks his has works again.

Tell that to the Gold Star families from his Afghanistan disaster, the people that can’t afford the gas to get to work, the hundreds of thousands of families that have lost family members to the virus Biden promised voters he would beat, the climate change crowd that saw him fall asleep at its’ most critical hour and these poor dogs he keeps getting for photo ops.  
 

I guess they don’t get mean tweets, so it’s an even trade?

Not sure why this is constantly the mantra...that all it was is mean tweets.  You know that isn't even close to the truth.

Dogs  :lmao:   Good stuff.

what? He was supposed to fix climate change? 

Good to see the empathy for the Gold Star families that your fearless leader disparaged.

Doubt it. 1 on 1 debates aren't his style. Lost to Hillary and Joe big time.

Incorrect.   He won the 3rd debate with Hillary.   Hands down.

Agree with Joe, he was too angry with Sleepy.  He should have just let Biden stumble all over himself.

I’m not even an MJ fan and I’m insulted for him by this comparison.  I know this is the Trump love fest thread and all but the outside of the Trump on Mt. Rushmore shtick this one is all time.

Donald is one of the top 2 or 3 athletes to be POTUS. Maybe 1 or 2 when I think of it

He isnt even top 3 in the past 30 years (HW and W Bush and Obama were all far superior athletes…Biden too in his younger age). But it is good schtick to claim that about Trump.

 
Fun fact: Donald is probably the best athlete to come out of New York Military Academy , a true baseball phenom. No one threw out a better first pitch . Donald was a phenom

c’mon man

How in the world were they not better athletes?

Obama would have crushed Donald at any athletic event.  W as well.  HW as well  (and a hell of a baseball player)

Go back further…Teddy Roosevelt was a boxer.

Ike played football at West Point…Ford at Michigan.

The schtick of Trump as some great athlete is worthy of a laugh.
