re: Key Advisor Reveals Trump's Post-Presidency Plans

Trump is a very effective problem solver. He could be planning to prove the fraud all kinds of ways, retake the House and Senate in 2022 and then impeach Biden and Kameltoe.
OMG, bro it's over, he lost. Fraud. Jesus, every election has irregularities and problems. If you went and looked at states Trump won you'd see all the same shite.

I think we'll just take places like Louisiana and Mississippi off the government teat. Giving them all this free stuff makes them lazy. Kentucky revenue as a state consists of 40% federal aid. This is socialism and it has to stop.

Taken your country back? So I’m sure you actually believe our election system 100% legit and above board don’t you? No funny business going on whatsoever? Or how about the mail in voting bullshite that y’all love oh so much? It was fine to elect a president but one of the democrats biggest supporters Jeff Bezoz is now fighting so his union can’t vote by mail in ballot because he’s worried about ballot integrity. Explain that one. Once again, “rules for the, not for me”.
I'm in Arizona, have been proudly voting by mail for 10 years, and we've had it in the state since 1996. Never been a problem before. Your boy just lost. It's mostly because he sucks.
I know it's hard. But he really was the worst, probably in our history. It shouldn't be a surprise, he's the only Prez to never hold elected office or serve in the military, and his business experience is a joke. He is probably on an allowance like the old guy in Big Lebowski. Fred Trump spent a lot of time and energy trying to build the image that Donald was some genius but he has a fourth grade vocabulary, he's a dummy.
re: Why does Canada want to build a pipeline?

Keystone pipeline is national security. In the event of foreign conflict we have oil supply from the NA continent versus a shakey middle eastern supply source. It would stabilize the North American economies for decades to come.
Mmm, seems like there's plenty of pipe for that. You can see Keystone would go right between two existing pipelines. Most of our foreign oil comes from Canada, Mexico, and Venezuela.

How’s the Huff Post these days, boy?
Not sure, I was reading an article on the Christian Science Monitor from 2012. LINK
"Most analysts agree that more Canadian oil flowing south would help reduce imports from other regions. Less obvious, however, is the fact that the Keystone XL pipeline is not actually needed to bring all that new Canadian oil to the US – a flow now projected to rise to 1.7 million barrels per day by 2030, according to the same DOE study. Often characterized by proponents as validating the need for the pipeline, that study actually found that Canadian oil import growth will go on at “almost identical” levels through 2030 using existing and new pipeline capacity as well as rail shipments – whether or not Keystone XL is built."

If you mean removing the glut by getting it to market then that wouldn’t making higher prices , that would mean additional supply which lowers prices. Trump pushing for energy independence kept prices lower which also has a downstream effect on all people and companies
Getting it to market doesn't mean our market only. Getting it to Texas means the oil can be put on ships for the export market. Why would TransCanada want to do something to make their oil cheaper? We get the temporary jobs, they get the permanent economic benefit.
Why does Canada want to build a pipeline?
Posted by BoneSpurs on 1/24/21 at 8:43 am
During the approval process, TransCanada testified before Parliment that building the Keystone XL would allow them to move a glut of crude out of the midwestern U.S. A glut means low prices. Removing the glut would mean they could sell us the crude at a higher price, maybe a couple of billion per year. I understand why they would want this, I don't understand why you all seem to want it.

It’s over fellow patriots. We no longer or will have equal representation. We enjoy life way too much to sacrifice it to do anything real about it. We are not cornered. And we will never win another election.
Taxation without representation.
This is a false premise, you have more representation than you deserve due to quirks of the electoral system, and gerrymandering. The proof is plain to see - the last two Republican presidents got in with fewer votes than their opponent.
The Senate is equally split 50/50 but Dem Senators represent 168 million people to 153 million for Republicans. So you have an equal number of Senators with far fewer people.
You can't whine about equal representation, and you can't call yourself a patriot if you don't have a basic understanding of the country you claim to love.
You are correct that equal representation would mean Republicans would never win a national election again, at least not with their current policies.
re: So how much wall did we get?
Posted by BoneSpurs on 1/23/21 at 9:58 am to ChoadieMcSmalls
All but about 50 miles was painting or repairing what was already there. And what was built under Trump cost about 5 times more per mile than what was built under previous administrations. He really sucks at building things and making deals. A lot of the money was taken from military counter-narcotics operation that might have actually inconvenienced the cartels. This wall won't bother them a bit.

Good God, you still don't get it? He didn't play his cards, he played all of you. You made him the most successful con man in the history of the world. You saw him lie about rain and crowd size on his first day and still you believe any crazy thing that comes out of his mouth. Assume everything he ever said is false, and all will make sense.

Yes, this is a pretty good list, but the vote counting thing is unnecessary.
If gerrymandering / voter suppression could be addressed in any meaningful way the rest of the list would sort itself out. If Texas alone could be un-gerrymandered it would already be game over.
Smart Republicans know this, which is why so many of them fell in line behind Trump - it was their last best chance to preserve minority rule in this country. If he wasn't such a frickwit it might have worked, who knows. If all goes well we'll never see a President elected with fewer votes than his opponent.
Oh, sorry the personal rights thing is not on the list, do what you like there, except maybe take up arms against the country.
I used to think of him as a turd that wouldn't flush. Now he's gone and off twitter, I'll spend more time fretting over his lunatic cult members and Q anon crazies and what they might do. You know, because they just tried to overthrow the government.

Uh, he lost, the polls were right. See, normal people just vote and move on. Nutjobs go to big in person MAGA circle jerks and worship their cult leader. I'll clue you in about those rallies, he lost in part because he did nothing but rallies. He never stopped doing rallies, even after he won. Adulation and golf were his thing, not doing the job of president. So we relieved him of that burden.

Would it make a difference if conservatives became qualified to serve as poll watchers?
No, no it would not. What would help is if R's moderated their positions to appeal to a wider swath of American voters, rather than relying on increasingly ineffective voter suppression tactics, including poll watchers. Poll watchers is a fancy way of saying sending people to hassle minorities trying to vote.
"In 1981, a Republican operation put armed men in uniforms emblazoned with “Ballot Security Task Force” outside polling places in largely minority areas during a New Jersey state election. After that incident, the RNC agreed to a consent decree that limited its ballot security operations.
That decree expired in 2018 after a federal judge declined Democratic attempts to renew it." LINK

Good try.
The answer is FRAUD!
You know it, the country knows it....just like the OJ Simpson case.
No, I don't know it. Rigging the election as you people claim would require a massive inter-state conspiracy involving prominent Republicans who campaigned loudly for Trump. It makes no sense. Why would a bunch of southern pro-Trump good ole boys rig the vote for Biden? Nobody seems to want to touch that one.
This outcome should not have come as a surprise - you guys spend so much time hating on the media, you missed all the signs. He never polled above 50%, never sought to make inroads with anyone but his own supporters. He trailed in every poll but Rasmussen, and he lost just like the polls predicted.
Honestly I'm surprised it was as close as it was. If not for the BLM rioting it would have been a blowout of historic proportions. If he had handled COVID even adequately he would still be in office.

You could not get the media to report on ANY possible election fraud and on and on and on
Everyone seems to forget Trump singing this same exact song in 2016. So much so that he formed a voter fraud commission to find all the illegal votes (because it was impossible for Hillary to get more). Kris Kobach and Mike Pence headed up this investigation, which ended as you would expect - embarrassingly. No fraud or illegal votes were found, and they didn't even issue a report, just quietly disbanded the panel like rats in the night.
Is it so hard to believe Trump simply lost? Most of us regard him as the most dangerously unfit conman to ever occupy the office, so we were highly motivated to turn out and vote, and get everyone we know to turn out. We didn't go to rallies or have flags on our vehicles, we just voted, and voted early. We are the silent majority.
