Gooddamn. I'd rather see 2 presidential candidates employ pompous "French" fencing, than just flinging shit at each other in the form of words and strongly worded sentences, like some fucking stupid pretend tennis match, without the net.
IDK what you think, but the competence in fencing, in being able to read your opponents body language, and not just your own physical prowess & personal technique is -directly- transferable into how well you think and how well you're able to solve problems in EVERY other area of expertise. Be it how to add 2 or more amounts together in mathematics, or how to lead a motherfucking country, you dig?
But, nooooo, it's senile orange option vs senile sniffer option. Bloody fantastic, that this time it just happened, luckily, to be the senile sniffer option. Y'all might be not so fortunate in 4 year time, when some other stupid senile options "present" themselves, in the runners up, for leading the most powerful motherfucking country in the world. Geez.

Fencing? Put them in a cage with just one hatchet. The next death cultist to swindle the american people will be more competent than the last.

I am tired of liberals and conservatives acting like the Biden presidency means anything.
objectively
1. Every President from a new party reverses the outgoing President's executive order. Plus repealing or reinstating the Hyde amendment based on party affiliation.
2. Georgia's Senate seats are not flipping blue so the senate will be 52-48 R
3. The democrats at best will have a 222-213 majority in the house. They are going to lose the house in 2022.
This election was a referendum on Trump's personality and the voting public dislike for the woke politics of the far left. If both parties were smart, the Republicans will find a more appealing candidate in 2024 that won't turn off suburban white women and the Democrat Party will treat woke politicians as the outliers in the party and focus on working class issues (like getting a healthcare system that reduces the cost of healthcare for the middle class worker). Whichever party implements their fix with the most enthusiasm will win in 2024.
I think the Democrats are beginning to catch on and we will have to wait and see on the Republicans.

It does. It means the President isn't a total jag off.

Yup Trump's bad decisions will be reversed and that's good

The former yes the later no

I doubt that the summary freddy offered is accurate. Referendum on trump at the presidential level, sure. The guy sucks, objectively sucks. He's even bad for bad.
Beyond that....? Establishment dems didn't do well, losing where they were expected to win - meanwhile, progressive laws from the woke crowd won big everywhere, including red states where no dem had any chance. The democratic party has made a terrible miscalculation. They could better charge their own voters, and siphon more from the racist camp, by pushing a progressive agenda.
Coddling terrible people is a losers game. Just ask Donald.

That's where it will remain, along with 2nd life, and some other platforms that I don't even know the names of...because I'm 68 and give not a pinch of feces about a lot of social platforms. I did join FB recently to connect with some people in my high school graduating class, but they obviously care about reconnecting as much as I used to, since there are about 40 people who are so interested. I've friended ONE person so far. We were pretty tight in high school and after. One other person I sent a friend request to found Jesus not long after we graduated HS, and we'll probably not reconnect, because he knew my opinion even then.
Good. The ageing 'social' media platforms, like Facebook and Twitter (it is one, despite all those nice concise topical messages), are attempting to cling unto their userbase like a crazy bitch with no self-worth on her trophy husband, and they're already doing some of their 'influencer' shit themselves. If they keep it up, I'm just gonna delete my accounts and go to the new 'hip' place, myself, and they are testing my patience.
If you're on facebook make sure to properly delete your account, don't just deactivate it. They've teacker cookies everywhere and will keep following you even if you deactivate your account.
I did a number on my facebook the first minute I heard about what they were doing with Cambridge Analytica in 2015.

Quote:As one Democratic strategist noted, “2018 was a wave year because our people showed up and theirs didn’t. 2020 was like a reversion to the mean because both sides showed up and right now we’re feeling the whiplash because no public or private data saw it coming.”
Nothing is clearer in the outcome than how closely the presidential vote matched the vote in House races. The latest count in the presidential race shows Biden with 51 percent of the popular vote. Cook’s tracker shows Democratic House candidates with 50.4 percent of the vote.

Biden/Harris coming up live PDQ. (14:57 Central right now.) North Dakota official almost in tears of frustration, afraid he'll be the one blamed for the Governor's stupidity.
