Haha, I'm not mad at anything - I don't live in the USA so don't care too much about what goes on in that country. I just like pointing out the hypocrisy of the left.
If you were actually laughing about all this, you wouldn't need to invent strawmen to whine about.

When the left start talking about the Biden corruption family and his crack addict son's dodgy dealings, when Hillary Clinton ends up in prison for her crimes, when Pelosi is getting rich from insider trading and nothing is said, when the other corrupt Dem politicians are held to account, I might take some notice. However we have seen double standards time and time again from the left, so nobody on the right is taking any notice of the clown circus - the left made some new rules up so we started playing by the same rules for now. Wait until the right take over again - heads will roll, it's just a matter of time until the left get their comeuppance. Biden will probably be impeached soon enough - revenge is sweet!

Seems like a lot of Democrats don't care for Biden due to, among other things, the amount of corruption that surrounds his family and decisions.

Wasn't Trump supposed to imprison Hilary? What ever happened to that?

I'm curious to know where this inside trading is on her behalf. Care to post something?

You whine a lot about corruption through the Democrats like it's not human nature, regardless of political party.

What's irrelevant it the views of every single person on this forum and everyone that doesn't make the state laws.

The law is the only thing that's relevant and the law has spoken.

*crickets chirping*

Biden will probably be impeached soon enough - revenge is sweet!

Fair enough. Trump's still got two on him for the moment. But if the law is the only thing that's relevant, then it stands to be said that the president is the only thing that's relevant. What did Republicans say for years? "Suck it up buttercup, he won"?

You'd be more relevant if you actually had an opinion that wasn't regurgitated Facebook memes from a conservative Republican Christian echo chamber. Didn't you mention earlier you don't even live in America but you like pointing out the hypocrisy of the left? At what point are you anything other than a puppet?

What was that 1 case?
wasn't really a full win, mostly if I remember correctly, one of the states did a part of the process wrong. I'll try to pull it up.
(from wikipedia. which covers it)

"Only one ruling was initially in Trump's favor: the timing within which first-time Pennsylvania voters must provide proper identification if they wanted to “cure” their ballots. This ruling affected very few votes,[9] and it was later overturned by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.[10]"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-..._the_2020_United_States_presidential_election

So technically speaking, he lost even that case since it was overturned.

Speaking of the hearings (still watching it)
Trump was going to install a "special counsel" with one of the members being Sidney Powell. If you remember who she is. You'd remember her as the person who claimed the election was stolen, and that some dead person in a foreign country did it. Which afterwords, with that special counsel, the "correct" results would be occur.

How many more times do I have to state this was a coup attempt? This is literately how a dictator overthrows (what remains) of a democracy. False information. Attempting to grab power through misinformation. Facists are at their strongest, when they can bleed fact and fiction together.

Predicting the righty cope posts: BUH BUH BUH ANTIFA, BUH BUH BUH BLM, ELECTION FRAUD WAS REAL CAUSE I SAW BOXES IN A TRUCK, BIDEN LAPTOP etc etc

Daily reminder that Antifa has no organization, BLM is decentralized, and neither had ever at any point tried to overthrow the government, they were protesting racial inequality and injustice in the criminal justice system, but you won't see anyone on the right ever acknowledge that because otherwise their arguments fall apart. No one on the right will condemn January 6th if they believe in election fraud myths, because they believe the attempted coup was necessary to instill their loser of a leader.

@LainaGabranth they'll ignore the logical progression of the discussion, spam memes and share unrelated or unarticulated opinions. And the mods will only shut the thread down due to excessive off-topic, instead of deleting off-topic posts.

"MUH whatabout hunter! You heard about failed son hunter right?! right?!"
Speaking of hunter. LMAO. I swear if I hear this exact statement, I'm going to ask "So... what happened to hunter's laptop? Like don't get me wrong, I'm sure there's some dirt on him. But, who's worse? a crackhead who is related to a President. Or a facist former President who has and will continue to try, to overthrow a election"
From there we'll likely end up getting Incel level logic roe v wade 5.0 style (I'm not really counting) and more fascist rhetoric. (or at least, fascist adjacent rhetoric.)

or anything that theyve done wrong.
All of us lefties (not democrats) Acknowledge and know the Democrats are shit. But They are far less shit, than the literal fascist party that is the Republican party. Your literately quote replying to someone talking about drug money.
What's worse?
Someone using drug money from a prisoners fund?
Or armed planned insurrection attempt, directly attacking the election process.
combined with overwriting the public regarding the supreme court and preparing to do another coup.

One of these takes far higher priority. people who vote Democrat (moderate right) and the actual leftists (which your group seems to fail heavily realize that most democrats aren't full blown leftists) support having a democratic system. That is our through line. We've always been against gerrymandering, we've always been against lobbying, we've always supported a better democracy.
The Republican party/Fascist party, would rather install an authoritarian with the state having absolute control.

If you cannot get your priorities straight, I'm not going to bother arguing with you. None of us got the time for it.

We have about a year, before the Partisan Supreme Court rules on
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jun/30/us-supreme-court-state-elections-legislatures
Once that happens, we aren't living any shred of democracy.
Biden likely isn't going to fix that.
