  • It's turning out exactly the way Trump has been saying it will - there are no circumstances in which he will admit he lost. He's been saying it for months and last night's etiolated bullshit was as close to a concession speech as he will get. Even if it goes to court and he loses he will insist he won, he's been making this clear for a long time. I bet he will be the first president not to attend his successor's inauguration.
    Many, possibly most, of his supporters will continue this fiction along with him. Setting up Donald Jr as the candidate in 2024.

    While democracts do nothing bold and fear moving away from the centre. So that will demise them forever, lets enjoy the last 4 years of mild democracy.

  • She does have a point though. Talking about defunding the police and being socialists was a gimme for the Trump campaign. So easy to distort what those words mean.

    These are the guys who believe that the German National Socialists were Socialists for example.

  • Regarding the centrist nightmare... The democrats could have easily stalled the confirmation of Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court last week (Republicans stalled in similar circumstances for an entire year). Instead they used it as a campaign driver and will (going forward) have a convenient reason/excuse not to implement minimum wage policies etc. They can’t, it’ll be blocked. This says loads!

    AOC and Omar are allowed to call for expansion of the Supreme Court now ... but had their mouths shut when it mattered.

    I’m mega cynical but I can see Biden/Harris being massively unpopular (for all sorts of good and bad reasons) but they’re career politicians, difficult to unseat.
