Yeah, that’s due to the fact that mail-in voting was generally by Democrats; since Trump had raised concerns prior to the election, Republican voters preferred to wait until the day of. That was the “red mirage” that the press kept referring to, since a lot of jurisdictions don’t allow for...

It is not. Now, I'm not a lawyer but I'm friends with a couple of them and due to my professional background I have a decent understanding of the legal process, civil and criminal. So I may be wrong on a couple of the minor details, but here is what happened: -Court cases are filed in...

Uh, the British system is also FPTP, actually, and their parties are largely the same way ours are. Witness what we saw with the Tea Party, the DSA, and the populist bent in current U.S. politics. It’s already prov Yeah, the thing with “penalty of perjury” is that as stated earlier, the...

Ones over serious issues rather than stuff done in the heat of the moment or political vendettas (the second Trump one was a mix) still occur, it’s just that Adam “Shithead” Schiff wasn’t treating it seriously because he didn’t want the county to know the Ukraine Not going to happen. Ivanka...

Isn't she the QAnon crackpot? I mean, if she wants to do it, fine, but it's not like it's going to go anywhere. The line of succession now is Harris, Pelosi, and then Patrick Leahy, and this will only undermine whatever comes out of the investigation that IRS-CI is running on Hunter (which is...

I find in interesting you say this for two reasons, and note that I'm in full agreement with you on the content: First, I too had a conversation with a friend from way back who is a lifelong Democrat, and he also agrees that the crazies on the left side of the party are causing insane amounts...

Then why the fuck didn’t he just tell Mnuchin to agree to $2,000 instead of $600? It was only a good PR move for the Democrats, because the establishment GOP, whatever you think of them, is still half the party and you need them in order to get anything done, and hold the country to some kind of...

Because he’s extremely left leaning (think Jeremiah Wright) who, while he is a preacher, is really out of step with most Georgians (and most blacks for that matter) on the actual issues. The only reason he hasn’t been hit harder is that 1) the press is more focused on Trump’s latest Tantrum of...

At this point I almost feel like it’ll be Perdue and Warnock. Which is weird because I always thought Warnock was the weakest of the four but hey. The polling on this basically indicates Trump’s blindsiding McConnell on the stimulus checks was the last straw. Either it was deliberately done to...

This is incredibly dumb. The real issue is that the GOP is terrible at messaging and coming up with solid alternatives. It’s fair to blame them for sucking at dealing with people while having plenty of good ideas. Also remember that, like them or hate them, people like The Squad did win...

Actually it was Pelosi overplaying her hand. She thought she'd have an issue for her vulnerable members to run on, and when McConnell balked, she tried to do an end-run through Mnuchin and still lost. At this point I don't think anyone believes the press is truly objective anymore. Hasn't been...

But it isn’t “hundreds”, it’s far less than that and the affidavits amount to either “This looked suspicious to me even though I was at a distance” or “So and so told me there was fraud.” Neither of those actually meet any evidentiary standard. They’re not false statements, but that doesn’t mean...

They’re only ‘active’ in the sense that SCOTUS hasn’t told them to knock it off. The Third Circuit, however, did. The Georgia suit got rejected because not only did the plaintiff (the lawyer bringing the case) not have standing to sue, but his alleged remedy was that since his vote got...

<deleted content> Yeah I saw this too. Not really surprising. <deleted content> Andrew McCarthy over at National Review said the same. It doesn't help Trump's case that there were, in fact, GOP observers when they initially claimed there weren't, and this was in front of a Bush-appointed...

Agreed. And yes, you’re probably right on foreign policy, but at the same time, Trump’s actual accomplishments on that front (better relations with and in the Middle East, taking a hard line on China, surprisingly improving relations with Mexico (yeah that one surprised me too but apparently he...

Probably. It’s why I find this whole shitshow to be hilarious. They really don’t understand the country is made up of about 330 million people with diverse ideas, but one underlying belief is that we should just be allowed to do our own things in peace without the government telling us what to...

That’s my take. It seems like (assuming a Trump loss) this is less a rejection of conservatism or embrace of liberalism and more, to quote a certain presidential candidate, “Will you shut up, man?!” to Trump personally. Which, yeah, given that people like his policies overall (generally...
