[Mark Antony]

Speaking of him, he still hasn't tweeted since Election Day last week.

Why would that affect him? I thought he was da centrist.

Nah that’s my guy, he’s misinformed. Out here like Ice Cube.

No your guy isn't misinformed
He's choosing to accept misinformation

 

[sreggie101]

Pfizer news isn’t really news considering they said they were close a month ago. Had chump won, THEY would have said he cured Covid.

people need to start getting smacked

Who gotta good article on Trump’s relationship with Russia?

My boy just sent me a text saying Hillary was working with Russia, not Trump.

A question that won't go away: Why does Trump love Putin so much?

Following the news that Russia put a bounty on US troops, this old puzzle takes on new significance.

How Russian Money Helped Save Trump’s Business

After his financial disasters two decades ago, no U.S. bank would touch him. Then foreign money began flowing in.

Operation Warp Speed's Logistics Chief Weighs In On Vaccine Progress

Gen. Gustave Perna says as soon as the FDA deems a vaccine safe and effective, his team is ready to coordinate deployment of tens of millions of doses as early as next month.

www.npr.org

Basically says we should see a widely available vaccine by the end of the year. Not sure if I believe it but we will see.

Id love to hear what type of non answers or deflections they would have for that question. The media should ask it and keep asking it until they answer it though.

Ted Cruz is a sad man though. Going so hard for a man who not only called his wife ugly, but also accused him of rigging primaries against him.

Nah that’s my guy, he’s misinformed. Out here like Ice Cube.

Hillary + Putin is flat-earther territory.

You entertain that nonsense, you're conditioning your guy to believe, he can bring all kinds of B.S. to your table.

Here's how it's going to play out: You're going to point out, that on the eve of the DNC hack, Trump was live on TV saying Yo Russia or China, if you can find Hillary's emails, you'll be mightily rewarded.

Then your guy is going to dismiss that outright as a Main Street Media fabrication. Then you'll be back here for asking for proof. We could provide it and your friend will dismiss that too. Soon you'll find yourself researching the ins and out of the last four year's cluster****, while your guy's relaxing in your best chair, munching your cereals.

It's your time to waste, I'd just ask him: So you want me to believe the collective of ****heads, who can't tell a luxury hotel from a landscaping company? Really? G T F O !

This is their play book: Ask for your sources and claim any source you bring is left-leaning lame-street media.

this is Trump's ploy to delay and cause chaos, Trump's entire litigious life has followed this pattern. He's trying to delay state certifications into january hoping that the chaos will lead to one(or more) of these GOP led states to overturn their results and side with him to give him the election. these courts need to punish his legal team financially until they give up, and if they dont give up, then threaten to disbar them

Former AG Laxalt doing his best to disenfranchise Nevada voters

When Adam Laxalt became Nevada’s attorney general in 2015, he took an oath of office in which he swore to “support, protect and defend” the constitutions and laws of the U.S. and Nevada. Now he’s trying to set fire to them …

went to high school with this dude... we used to get high and party at his moms crib almost every weekend... he used to have the pounds of the “Kind Bud” back then... rich white kid... didn’t realize back then his family’s political history runs deep... he was cool then... now not so much... I could tell some wild stories from back then... robberies, shootings and more... used to have his white *** at the GOGO’s (DMV music/ clubs) wild as F no lie... he’s a scumbag now!

What an unbelievable waste of time, money and resources to count over 180 *&&%$!@$ votes. How can people be so blind and ignorant to this imbeclie. People are dying. Small business owners are losing their businesses and he wants to drag this election out over 180 votes. Unreal.

the only thing I can think of, is trump doing all this to get some sort of agreement out of the Democrats to avoid any personal liability

so he clearly demonstrates he is willing to burn down everything unless they settle out of court with him

I get the GOP is trying pacify his base with them thinking they can keep them onboard post trump, but they need to look at how cults work

 

[jking0821]

It is so annoying the gaslighting by the right side with this voter fraud nonsense.
"It's not bias...like the DNC stole the nomination from Bernie in 2016 so like you should care about voter fraud too"
"The system is rigged and it effects everyone"

Just go away already. No matter what the outcome if it wasn't for "your guy" you wouldn't be ok. Stop the vote....count the vote...Grow up already.

I'm with you...virtually no chance.

We've been told pipe dreams about this vaccine all year now - when the public should not believe anything until it's actually here, and successful. Remember when we were told by end of summer it's here? Then it was by Halloween. That's ridiculous.

We all want this to happen ASAP, no doubt. And it's basically our only hope at this point. But a couple things for people to remember:

The fastest successful vaccine ever developed in world history was....over 4 years time. And when the time comes that we do get one, over 300 million vaccines are going to need to be produced just in the U.S. alone.

This checks out. Did a quick read up on him.

I can see it. His Pops is a scum bag too. Longest serving senator in Nevada history, who only acknowledged Ole boy was his son at 80 years old. In 2013 . The year before he ran for election.

**** wild.
