“If Joe Biden had tried to steal the election as Trump just clearly attempted, would Trump’s base be going nuts with violence?” No question And we know this because of the way they acted during 2000 (bum rushing the Florida recount stations in Miami). And that was merely a legal recount of an incredibly close… Read More »
“What do Republicans think about Trump calling Michigan officials directly and inviting them to the White House?” “Oh, he’s just thanking them for doing such a good job with the election.” Horseshit It’s just one of two dozen examples where Trump is trying to steal this election, and his mindless horde pretend on as if… Read More »
So we won’t know for sure until all demographic data is released on the 2020 election, but it sure looks like Trump didn’t do so hot with senior citizens this election cycle…or at least not for a Republican candidate. While the media has focused myopically on why Trump did even slightly better with minority voters… Read More »
On a message board that I frequent, someone asked “What are some things that European conservatives do better than American conservatives?” I scanned through about 10 answers, and have (so far) not seen anyone mention the environment, pollution, and renewable energy—and that might tell you something about how conservatives in America think on this issue.… Read More »
“Damn, how did Trump get more votes than last time? How did he do so well?” I’m not sure an incumbent President losing by the biggest margin since Herbert Hoover is really “doing well” by any objective measure, but I understand the sentiment: how did so many people vote for an impeached, incompetent, traitorous criminal… Read More »
Every conservative right now “Well, Trump is just using all his legal options. It took Al Gore 38 days to concede. There’s no difference.” These Al Gore comparisons are dead wrong for so many reasons… 1. The vote in Florida truly was less than a 1,000 vote difference and at one point only 537 votes.… Read More »
Unlike most of the pundits and political writers who get paid to talk about the “white working class” and/or red states, I’m actually from a rural area in a red state and feel uniquely qualified to answer the question on everyone’s minds: “Why are people in rural areas voting Republican?” 1. Because they falsely believe Democrats are… Read More »
It’s becoming a little-talked about fact that even though big cities and blue states are supposedly “socialist,” they actually control the economy: the staggering majority of American GDP comes from blue cities and blue states. Meanwhile, Republicans that supposedly hate government are in charge of rural areas in red states who’s only real contribution to… Read More »
The undecided voter is a little bit like the Loch Ness Monster: often heard of, but rarely seen. Every election cycle, we see endless appeals to that 10% that says they’re undecided (and this cycle it was closer to 3% even pretending to be). If they actually exist, they’d be enough to sway any Presidential… Read More »
Joe Biden cannot take office with a Republican majority in the Senate. If he did, he’d be the first Democratic President since Grover Cleveland in 1885 to take office without congressional control. And McConnell has already signaled that he would block Biden’s cabinet picks from all but the most centrist Democrats or even moderate Republicans.… Read More »
