Here we are on Memorial weekend, honoring men and women that fought for freedom and the Constitution. And Trump is Praising Putin and saying the crowd at his rally was 35000.
It was less than 1000. Lol
Claiming he is going to do this and that for the working folks.
Well he's to late because Biden has already done everything he claims to do if elected. But you know faux not news people don't have a clue what has been done already.

Quote from: HighStepper on May 23, 2024, 10:17 PMNot in the most wildest of fantasy worlds, is there an equivalency between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. On election night Hillary called Trump to congratulate him. The next day Hillary gave a concession speech* which supported the peaceful transfer of power.

In 2016, 2.8 million more people voted for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton than Trump, but she lost the determining Electoral College vote. During a September 2019 interview on CBS, she blamed her loss on voting restrictions passed by some states before the 2016 election and Russian hacking of her campaign that was later confirmed by a U.S. Department of Justice investigation. Link

So yes, Clinton and other Democrats bitched and moaned about the 2016 election not being on a level playing field. What they did not do is participate in conspiracies to change the election outcome after the fact. Unlike Donald Trump they did NOT inspire a mob of maniacs to storm the US Capitol.

*During her concession speech on the morning of November 9, 2016, she publicly acknowledged Trump's win and offered to work with him on behalf of the country. Despite her winning the popular vote, Clinton emphasized the importance of accepting the results and looking toward the future, stating, "Donald Trump is going to be our president. We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead. Our constitutional democracy enshrines the peaceful transfer of power. And we don't just respect that, we cherish it"



I would say if a election was rigged it was the 2016 election rigged for Trump to win. But how could a nationwide election be rigged?  I dont think it is possible and to get away with it would be impossible.

They all expressed support for him. The Obamas, the Clintons, the Bushes, everyone. Even Dave Chappelle on SNL.

Because that's what we'd always done in America. Until Trump. >:(

Election Deniers have happened throughout history with all parties.
No one mention election denier Hillary, LOL. She still says that election was stolen by the Russians in which Hillary spread many lies on Russian involvement, That coincidently was started by Hillary herself.

Quote from: Bande on May 23, 2024, 06:58 PMHillary lied and pushed the Russian involvement hoax. FACT. And to this day states the election was stolen.  As stated all parties have had issues and yet Trump gets lamb Basted. Have you seen all the convictions for election fraud?? OF Course Not.. There was issues, now if enough to turn election who knows...
This is what results when someone gets their information about the world from shitty sources.

We've been over the right-wing bullshit about Russian involvement being a "hoax," so there's nothing more to say about that.

As for why Trump has been "lamb Basted," that is because Trump, and only Trump, has not just claimed the 2020 election was stolen. No, he didn't stop with that, which was protected speech under the 1st amendment.

He went much further, engaging in criminal conspiracies to first stop the electoral vote count and then to attempt to strong-arm state officials into somehow changing the results of the election so that he could remain in office.

And somehow, this is either denied by right-wingers, or they're just fine with it. It's sickening.

Quote from: bats on May 20, 2024, 05:26 PMWe've got Clarence Thomas, whose wife was at the heart of the plan to "stop the steal" in January 2021. Now, Sam Alito blames his wife for flying their American flag upside-down in the days after Jan. 6.

And these guys are pretending there's no reason for them to recuse from cases involving Trump and his attempts to overturn the 2020 election.

Look, we all know that politicians appoint federal judges. But the overt bias shown by the current crop of far-right Supreme Court Justices is antithetical to the principle that justice is blind.




Funny thing is not a one has been charged with being a Insurrectionist...

Have you noticed most media have refrained from using the phrase Insurrectionist. Reason for that..

Privileged is a lifestyle, mostly people who have not worked a blue collar job and have life handed to them.
