Cling to whatever 'stats' you want all the way to Loserville. Better luck next time you fucking losers.
it's worthwhile to find out why conservatives in canada lost last year and hillary in 2016 despite being the choice of majority
brexit, bc vs alberta, covid anti-asian sentiments, a president gaslighting for violence...the most bitter division seen in generations and the wave of comments like yours only perpetuate the fragmented new world
I didn't go to Wharton. I went to a different school. I'm not sure what Wharton teaches.
I'm pretty sure they don't teach isolationism and protectionism as routes to national economic prosperity. I'm also pretty sure they don't teach perpetuation of systemic oppression. And I'd wager they don't teach the benefits of supply side / trickle-down economics because that just doesn't work.
Again, I don't know. I didn't go to Wharton.
Trump, however, DID go to Wharton, one of the best bizness schools in the country. He should have known better. Even if he did go to school there in the 60s during the post-war era where the dangers of isolated economies would have been discussed.
I couldn't tell you what he learned though. I wasn't there. But I'm pretty sure he got a better education than he demonstrated.
Undoing some of this shit isn't "Because Trump", its "Because Dumb"

@ 1:31 the kid recites a Hitler speech and the trump supporters cheer.
As amusing and concerning as this is, I will say this - similar things happened in 2016 when Trump won lol. I think it just goes to show how stupid some people are, regardless of political affiliation.
As long as it doesn't evolve past a congregation of morons spewing vitriol amongst themselves, let them vent their frustration and we can laugh at their stupidity.
Was he laughing at trump or the media? and I've always found him creepy/scary I'm shocked he's still alive though, what is he 300yrs old by now? Always reminded me of that old guy from poltergeist
Forgive me if I don't see the "Lulz" here. The woman speaking is absolutely right. The media does not decide who wins the presidency. Their projections have no standing, it is up to the states to certify their vote counts. That begins tomorrow (10 Nov) and each state has their own laws and timelines on how this process occurs in addition to recounts which are taking place in some battleground states. That's how the winner is legally determined. Joe Biden is not the President-Elect yet the media is just saying he is.
Given the highly polarized divide across the US I have no doubt there has been attempted fraud by voters at some level. Whether it's by trying to vote multiple times, registering a deceased person, forgery, or even the possibility of the supposed software glitches that happened: this is the bedrock of democracy. These votes, regardless of who they are for, need to be found and eliminated. If found processes and laws need to be updated to ensure the legitimacy of continued elections. Over 150 million Americans voted and if just 1/10th of a percent of those votes are illegitimate that's 150,000 votes! Given how close the races are in some states where the separation is only 12k in Georgia, 15k in Arizona, 45k in Pennsylvania etc this is a really big deal. I certainly wouldn't call it funny. What's scary about the clip you've posted is the arrogance and entitlement of some nobody news anchor dismissing this and proclaiming "We've called it" like her network gets to decide the winner. It is equally ignorant stupidity as Trump declaring "Stop the count!".

150k divided by 50 states not including the Commonwealths and Territories works out to 3k illegitimate votes per state. Not all of those votes would be for Biden. It's over trump has lost. Claiming the dems rigged the election is B.S. If that was the case why did Clinton lose and why are we having a runoffs for 2 senate seats in Georgia? I have a felling some of these youtubers like charlie kirk are partly bushing a voter fraud theory for the money. The guy is raking in the donations and views. I wonder how much rudy giuliani is being paid?

Please... Stop. Trump lost. If there are obvious cases of fraud, they'll find it. And fake videos you see on Tick Tock don't count. Also it's not a close enough race for even the most prevalent fraud in history to make a difference. It would have to be something along the lines of absolute cheating throughout the entire country, with millions of fake votes.
In hindsight, although Biden underperformed, the election wasn't even that close. He beat Trump way more easily than Trump beat Hilary. It wasn't one state that swung it either. It wasn't a landslide, but it wasn't close either, once all votes are counted.
You want to see close, go look at 2000, where it came down to Florida, which Bush won by 537 votes. You think GA is close at 12,000, and PA is close at 45,000. In 2000 Gore won NM by 366 votes. WI by 5700 votes. IA by 4000 votes.
It's not that close. Trump is just following the steps required to perform a coup. It was outlined in that video posted here a few days ago. Don't fall for it, you're not a fool. We joke about trumptards wanting to vote in a fascist "authoritarian" president ironically, but here they are actually literally supporting a takeover of the President of the United States. Like what???
