Joe Biden Wins - Becomes 46th president of the United States

[Darth Meteos]

The belief that your country is the best there is isn't bad.

That's not quite the issue, sir. There's a common trope amongst Americans called American Exceptionalism, you've probably heard of it. It's kind of a cancer, to put it mildly, it creates people who think they're better than other people because they're Americans, when they're not. It also causes people to selectively be outraged, like the people who think it's okay that America went into the Middle East post-9/11 because of the "good intentions."

“If you have a windmill anywhere near your house, congratulations, your house just went down 75 percent in value. And they say the noise causes cancer,” the president said while delivering remarks at the National Republican Congressional Committee's annual spring dinner. He offered no evidence to support the claim.

Obama's birth certificate isn't real:

An 'extremely credible source' has called my office and told me that @BarackObama's birth certificate is a fraud.

Obama played golf more often as President:
https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-defends-golf-trips-falsely-claims-less-than-obama-2020-7

While Trump claimed that he has golfed fewer times than his predecessor, that's not accurate, according to a CNN fact check from May. Trump has spent 266 days at his golf clubs at the end of May while Obama had played 98 rounds by that point in his presidency.

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
We pay for Obama's travel so he can fundraise millions so Democrats can run on lies. Then we pay for his golf.

@BarackObama played golf yesterday. Now he heads to a 10 day vacation in Martha's Vineyard. Nice work ethic.

either way I rather see him as bubba's play thing as much as the next guy but i feel that will not happen

If you mean Trump, jail would be too comfortable for him. High profile, white collar criminals never see the shit of gen pop or anything else because they get segregated. Trump especially would be murdered day one. I'd rather see him teetering on homelessness and deciding whether to buy food or to keep running water. I want to see him subject to what he and his administration did to the citizens of this country during a global pandemic. Better yet, just take him to a COVID ward and have all the patients cough on him, then kick him to the gutter. We'll see how long he makes it without the aid of steroids and stem cells from aborted fetal tissue.

Trump election lawsuit in Arizona's Maricopa County dismissed
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news...s-maricopa-county-dismissed-judge/6296977002/

An attempt by Republican officials to have more Maricopa County ballots reinspected by hand, possibly changing final vote tallies, has failed.

Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Daniel Kiley on Friday dismissed claims filed on behalf of Donald Trump's campaign, the Republican National Committee and the Arizona Republican Party as moot, meaning further legal proceedings are pointless.

Report: Trump puts Giuliani in charge of election lawsuits
https://thehill.com/homenews/campai...iuliani-in-charge-of-election-lawsuits-report

Giuliani’s association with Trump has come under increased scrutiny in recent months in part due to media appearances in which he made embarrassing gaffes. He was most recently criticized for holding a press conference in the parking lot of a landscaping company near a pornography shop.

Aides reportedly said that Giuliani has been hyping up Trump’s expectations of the lawsuits, which many maintain are unwinnable but the former mayor has said are within the campaign’s reach.

How foolhardy. Dunno if you saw this, but I posted it on the last page.

Turns out Giuliani's Four Seasons stunt is what made several lawyers walk away. Like I said, this whole thing has been a case of shooting yourself in the foot and blaming the gun. I guess this is what 4D chess looks like, though.

You know what, I had completely forgotten about that story. It's totally relevant. I was going to comment on it, but I kinda got sidetracked.

He is a shit lawyer and even worse cyber security expert lol twice last year he gave out vital government information to someone pretending to be Kim Kardashian via email He did zero checks to confirm it was her and it was just some prankster pretending to be her.

And there is also this

Unlike your president it would seem

 

[KingVamp]

Would Pence even care to pardon Trump?

 

[Joom]

I know when to give up.

But are you giving up because you accept the rebuttal, or because you can't come up with one to disprove it? Y'know, it's not bad to admit you were wrong, and that your line of thinking is flawed. This is how we grow as humans, and advance toward an intelligent society. Humility and modesty will always carry you further than arrogance and ego.

Would Pence even care to pardon Trump?

Trump can pardon himself. Nixon did it. The president of the US really is the most powerful person on the face of the planet. They don't exaggerate when they say that.

Nixon didn't pardon himself. However, I'm sure Trump believes he can pardon himself.

 

[Joom]

I mean, Ford technically did, but it required Nixon to resign.

His options for resigning were to delay his resignation until further along in the impeachment process to try to settle for a censure vote in Congress or to pardon himself and then resign.

Do we think Trump will do the same thing, or do we think his ego will prevent him from doing so?

 

[AmandaRose]

Wouldn't giving himself a pardon be a sign that he admits to doing something wrong? He is never going to do that lol

I'll read that article later. It looks friggin hilarious.

After Borat 2, Giuliani really, REALLY needed this. Trump elevated him from rock bottom to leading multiple election fraud lawsuits that are going absolutely nowhere. I can't think of anyone better suited for this role than Giuliani.

This was only made possible because Trump's legal teams have finally seen the light. Their reasoning probably looks something like this:

1. Tired of the negative publicity.
2. The Trump campaign is running low on money and he has a history of not paying for services rendered.
3. These cases are mostly unwinnable, which are automatic L's on the firm's track record.

Of course, none of the above phases Giuliani! His reasoning probably looks a little more like this:

1. Tiger Blood
2. Bi-winning
3. Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

And I just witnessed climate change denial
OHHHH BOYYY
I'm now really depressed with humanity. How on earth does someone still think that climate change isn't a human problem that we created? how far gone from reality must you be?

Because these people literally believe that because there is cold/snow outside during certain seasons in certain places there is no way it can exist at all. Basically using only their senses and not actual scientific data to back up their beliefs, same as flat earthers who think the earth is flat because they can't see the curvature of the earth at all times or feel any of earths motion as it rotates and revolves around the sun.

It's mostly because people are too concerned with what's immediately before them. The boomers left this present for the millennials because they didn't take their future grandchildren into consideration, and that same ideology has carried over through the generations who were raised by boomers. Boomers also still run most of the government, and Gen X'ers aren't much better. The difference is that the boomers are the "gimme" generation, and X'ers are the "I don't care" generation. Meanwhile, their children and grandchildren are left to suffer under the mess they created.
