sne Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Trump up and about early today already hurling lies and insults on Twitter. Leader of the free world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted January 6, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted January 6, 2021 He seems to be repeatingly telling Pence to authorise his Veto. a) Is there genuinely anything Pence can do legally and b) as he seems to be ignoring Trump can we add the Vice President to the list of the press, the legal system, local Republican authorities, various Republican Senators, every living past president, the voting machine manufacturers and local vote certifiers who are all in this Anti Trump brigade. At some point he surely has to ask himself "Why do they all hate me?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will not be any progressive legislation passing in the next two years. However, this is still important because a] it allows Biden to staff his cabinet and executive branch without *too* many fights, and b] allows Stephen Breyer to retire and hopefully delays the possibility of a Supreme Court with a 7-2 conservative majority. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see anything official yet though but the signs were pointing to him winning and there being a Dem Senate (just). Been projected for a while, but he has a healthy lead with a lot of Dem areas still to come 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Would be wonderful if Antifa and the usual suspects from the left side could stay away from Washington and stay calm and let the Proud Boys, KKK and the other right wing nut battle it out on their own against the police. Let them dig their own hole and make fools out of themselves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be perfectly fine with that You just know that if counter protesters show up they will be on the receiving end of police brutality while the Trumpers will be allowed to carry on. If there is no one to fight the Trumpers will turn on themselves and the police/national guard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colhint Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Trump has partially got his wish. Simply by leaving office, he may not have made America great again, but it'll certainly be better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanAVFC Posted January 6, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted January 6, 2021 Jesus, this is insane. Even by Trump's standards. He won't concede. He won this election by more than the last. Biden got 80,000,000 computer votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Always amazes me how much of their aesthetics the US parties and especially the Republicans under Trump has borrowed from the Nazis (and the Romans). And they seem fine with it. Change the color of the flags and it's 1939 all over again. Just to be clear I'm not saying they are Nazis (most of em anyway.)

OutByEaster? Posted January 6, 2021 Moderator Share Posted January 6, 2021 Police arrested the leader of the Proud Boys organisation yesterday after he pulled a BLM banner off a church and set it on fire. He's called Enrique Tarrio and he identifies as Afro-Cuban according to his wikipedia page. I wonder if he ever throws himself out of the house then tells himself to go back to where he came from.

Stevo985 Posted January 6, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted January 6, 2021 Watched some of Trump’s speech. **** hell. He is absolutely nuts. Said it before, if Trump was brown and this was happening in the Middle East or Africa everyone in the western world world would be condemning it. It’s mad that so many people support him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost like there's more to this than the simple race/sex narrative peddled by the wealthy corporate controlled media. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
