Conservatives never win because they take their cues from the intellectual left. They create a negative news cycle, then conservatives blame Trump for the negative news cycle. If you are a pussy conservative, please do your fellow countrymen all a favor, and shut the frick up in times like this.

"I kind of like Trump, but when the media tells me he did something wrong, I stab him in the back, so that the left doesn't have to stab him in the front."

-70% of conservatives

Trump isn't a fighter. He sends other people to fight for him. When they don't achieve the results he needs, he calls them names and says he never needed them anyway. He's the kind of guy that talks shite when going into battle, but when the shooting starts, he tucks tail and runs leaving his soldiers behind. Then if they are victorious, he returns to the battlefield and takes credit for the victory. Anyone that has ever served has served with an a-hole like this. You know it's true. Trump is a dirt bag little pussy. frick him


Posts like this are interesting. It says a lot more about the poster than Trump, of course.

Tell us about your dad.

After we hit the second week of December with nothing concrete, it became clear there was nothing concrete that they had in hand.

If anyone gets to actually deep dive into the ballots and audit trails of Fulton, Maricopa, the ring suburbs of Philly, Wayne and the north shore of Milwaukee, I think some interesting things will emerge.

But you needed to be prepared for that before the election even started.

He needed to put so many operational things in place immediately before and after the election and did none of it. That failure, as well as his conduct down the stretch, ruins any legacy.


Wasn’t nothing to put in place ... dude embarrassed he lost the election... that’s what this is all about..he could have appeared in front of that crowd yesterday and showed strength taking defeat gracefully... but he hid like a weak men why his supporters assaulted his legislative branch

It's just the way it's framed, that such a significant amount of people were oblivious to what was unfolding, instead thinking "oh well, everything's on the up and up....I guess that's that".....it's such a prominent narrative and I'm having a difficult time believing that was the case, to the extent alleged. But who knows. Only the individual I suppose.

I look at the events yesterday as inevitable and here is why. Trump was elected because he was the first president in 50 years that actually did not take the BS that the MSM tried to spin, he fought back.

Good moderate, law abiding citizens watched as progressives and leftists, looted, burned and rioted in several major cities and democrat leaders refused to stop it or denounce it. They saw people who committed felonies have charges dropped. They saw democrat politicians actually support and ask for people to donate $$$ to bail protesters out of jail. We listened to MSM personalities over and over and over provide cover for rioters over summer saying "you need to understand where they are coming from" and other such B.S.

I think people with Joe Biden barely coming out of his basement, the China and Ukraine crap, Hunter Biden's incest and pay for play schemes and Biden still wins on top of all of that, seems kinda hard to accept, especially when for 3 years we had Democrats and MSM tell us that Trump colluded with Russia, even after Mueller report said he did not.

I believe that this was a flash point, but breaking point for many as they have had enough. I personally am tired of the double standard. I have some serious soul searching that I need to do going forward with regards as to how (if) I vote in elections going forward.

Exactamundo.

Trump is the ATL Falcons in super bowl LI. Killed it for 3 years and then shite it all away in then 4th.

90% of people on this board saw COVID as a means to steal the election and Trump didnt have one measure in place to thwart the steal or catch the perps. This is simply unforgivable given the stakes.

He certainly did not help by tweeting crap like, "it's going to be wild!"

Rudy, didn't help with his "trial by combat" remark.

Moreover, everyone saw the Democrats working to put the theft into place for months. How in the Hell was he not prepared for that? When the hour arrived that we all knew would arrive, we had Rudy, Lin and Sidney as the faces of the legal effort.

What do you want to know about my dad. He's 90 and a damn fine American. Unlike Trump, he and myself actually fought for our country. What have you done to serve your country?

Sucking globalist dick doesn't count as "fighting for your country," but you do you.

No.

But I'm just a regular Joe Blow and it was Trump's responsibility to competently lead the effort with a sound strategy against that and Trump being a brawler/fighter instead of the wise tactician we needed made sure we had no chance of stopping the steal.

I'm not trying to be a bastard here, but I note that you do have healthy agreement within your thread. Most of that agreement being that it was Trump's responsibility to protect against "the steal" and he failed in that regard. But unless I've carelessly looked past it, I haven't seen any specific suggestions as to what he could've or should've done, i.e. examples. Did I miss something? If there's the belief that something else could have been done, there's also got to be a corresponding suggestion.

You missed my point. If you are going to fight a real battle like the one Trump undertook post election, you have to put a solid operational, technical and communications structure around it. He never did that. In the end, he had nothing, which was clear some time ago, but he struggled to out a face and operational integrity around his legal efforts.
