While we are at it, let's think about health care for all & other socialist policies. Careful you don't automatically discard them.
Socialism has been exhaustively studied and torn apart by Conservatives to see if it could be a viable alternative to our current way of life and it’s been determined that is doesn’t. We don’t simply discard something when we hear it’s name like your side does. You hear something you dislike, label it and the rest of your heard won’t even look into if it’s real/fake/viable. That’s what brainwashed morons do, not smart people.

Still more projection! Nah, I'm satisfied with my policies of choice. Besides, I think that a system that doesn't guarantee modern living necessities like housing, healthcare and education is a failed system. That's a pretty fucked system, where people are on the streets and treated like garbage while the top 1% has more money than they could ever spend.
No, your views of what I’m observing fall back to your limited ability to comprehend things. You can be aware of why someone does something and how to process works without having that be the only thing you see. I’m not projecting the way I see things as I’m trained to identify various behavior patterns and that’s just because I’m smart and you’re not. Even if I was projecting what I’m claiming isn’t false and you’d still be wrong.
Nothing in life is guaranteed. I don't owe you shit. You make this life the way you want it. It's not my fault if you choose to be miserable or are too stupid to see your choices have results and you're responsible for those results. People have the option to be successful if they want to be. It’s not my fault people choose a life of vain, glory, or pride, greed, or covetousness, lust, or inordinate or illicit sexual desire, envy, gluttony, wrath, or anger, and sloth and the fact that these sins make them miserable. Other peoples failures are not my responsibility. You get what you put in and if you can’t see that then you’re only projecting your miserable existence onto people who value honesty, integrity and hard work.

First, American liberals are centrists at best. Second, I accepted the results on election night 2016, though it took a while longer to fully sink in. Third, you're free to scream, "not my president" all you want, that's a very different concept from "not THE president."
Trump was the second worst presidential candidate of all time (behind only Hillary Clinton for losing to him), and among the top three worst presidents of all time. And the sad thing is: he still would have won if not for his piss-poor handling of the pandemic. It was the first time the Trump administration had to deal with a disaster that wasn't of their own making, and they got a big fat F on that report card.
Your problem was believing Trump was a shoe-in to win when all the national polls had Biden up by about ten points. I knew it'd be a lot closer than that, and I knew Trump still had about a 33% chance to win. In that same vein, you should've given Biden at least a 33% chance (much more if you weren't inside an information bubble) in order to avoid all this drama in the aftermath of defeat.
We’re in America, Liberals in other countries don’t have anything to do with our political system. Trump did a damned good job even with the pandemic where he acted months before Liberals did. He closed borders, stopped immigration and formed teams of people to combat the virus while the entire time he did this the Liberals deflected the potential seriousness of the virus and called Trump and his supporters racists for reacting. Now the fucking hypocritical pieces of shit Liberals have the audacity to blame Trump’s response when theirs was millions of times worse. At least Trump took the issue seriously at first when your side didn't.
If anything the close race between Trump and Biden should shine a light on how bias Liberal polls are. I had no idea what was going to happen and if the Electoral College votes for Biden in a couple of weeks then I’ll gladly call him my President. Your side still has people, like you said, saying “Not my President” and that’s factually inaccurate. Trump won the 2016 elect and is the President of the United States so he is your President if you’re a USA citizen regardless if you you like him or not. I don't particularity care for rich people, but he's took Obama's "the best it's going to get, you have to get used to the new normal" and made things thousands of times better, while proving Obama dead wrong.

I called it a formality because that's exactly what it is. Your complaint is moot, as there is no probable scenario where Biden loses nor have you presented one. Georgia just finished it's manual recount btw, reaffirming Biden's win there.
For Trump to win, he now requires 37+ of Biden's electors to flip (not happening) or provide evidence of widespread election fraud (he hasn't).
For any Trump supporters who are unhappy that most of the world has already acknowledged Biden's victory, please see Trump's November 2016 claim of "winning the Electoral College in a landslide" weeks ahead of the electors casting their ballots:
Of course you’re going to try to twist reality to match what your sides media is claiming, but that doesn’t actually change reality. Even if there’s no way Trump could possibly win at this point he still hasn’t lost because the vote hasn’t taken place. You can ignore it because your side prematurely claimed victory, but that doesn’t change the fact the vote that makes Biden the next President hasn’t taken place yet.
Look, if you turn 18 on December 14th, 2020, but call yourself 18 in the month of November prior to your birthday you’re lying about your age. When you buy a lotto ticket, you don’t win until the actual drawing takes places regardless of what you want to happen. You can call the Electoral College vote a formality or any other verbiage that will help defend your sides lies, but Joe Biden is not the President Elect until the Electoral College votes he is. At the time the Electoral College votes and makes Joe Biden the President Elect I'll gladly call him so. I'm not some partisan hack that hates Presidents just because my side lost. I'm patriotic and love the USA and will support our elected officials, including Biden if he becomes the next President, because it's the right thing to do. Conservatives value truth and honesty, which is why we don't get alone with Liberals as they value lying, cheating and scandalous behavior.
When the electoral college votes and when they choose Biden as the winner I will then refer to him as the winner, but until the vote takes place he’s only projected to win and that’s a big fucking deal, because the vote decides who wins and who loses. The media doesn’t get to call elections, the actual people who vote do. We’ve had 4 years of Trump exposing the leftist medias lies so this situation isn’t surprising, it just goes to show how stupid you and your side are.
You don’t count your chickens until they hatch even if you’ve been watching them develop using x-rays.
