Posts: 691Mess, by any measure
It's a bi partisan mess. I was born here. The political pendulum swings back and forth. If one believes in the laws, then losing in an election and in the courts must be accepted. The founding slave owners had to make compromises, the original sin of the constitution being the 3/5 ths compromise to get 13 warlords to agree.

The caning of Liz Cheney is cancel culture's ignominious hour. Disclaimer: I'm not a fan of either faction of the US one party system of the rich.

All, ie. Every single one, of the "facts" that RepucliCANTS cling to (regarding the election) have been debunked. Just like "Jewish Space Lasers", "Windmills cause cancer", etc.

Afghanistan has resisted invaders for longer than the last four years and 100 days. The current administration, like it or not was handed a mess in many ways. The southern US border has been in chaos for decades. Why pay attention to CNN when all one needs to know comes from Tuckkker, except his Covid vaccination status. Maybe the second shot is the reason he's so whacked out. By the way, didn’t the Boy Wonder real estate grifter solve the Middle East problems. He stroked Prince Salamander’s Orb along with Fat Nixon. Kashoggi (RIP)

CNN last night proved they are not a news station but only a propaganda platform for the democrats. With tensions in Israel and Middle East problems, Taliban starting up the CNN news spent 90 minutes discussing their new darling for the democrats Cheney. They love Cheney now that Wyoming has basically given up on her agenda. CNN will continue talking about anyone who opposes Trump rather than report the news.
Biden is scrambling and has no solutions. Border crises, Israel, Taliban, inflation poor job reports. He has accomplished nothing and everything that was working las 4 years is falling apart. The democrats must be so proud. In just 100 days we went from great to distressed.

"With days left in the race, the campaigns of Richard M. Nixon and John F. Kennedy sought to downplay civil rights issues for fear of losing southern white votes. Blacks had mostly voted Republican, since Abraham Lincoln. Nixon had just been endorsed by Martin Luther King Sr. , the leader of Ebenezer Baptist Church. But Nixon ignored their pleas for help, while Kennedy called Coretta to express his sympathy.
Historians Taylor Branch and David Garrow wrote that Robert F. Kennedy threw a fit, telling aides who fed her number to his brother that they cost him the presidency, but he called Mitchell, who reversed his denial of bond, immediately freeing King.
King's father switched his endorsement, saying Kennedy had "the moral courage to stand up for what's right. " That quote, and others, appeared in a blue-papered pamphlet titled "No Comment Nixon Versus a Candidate with a Heart, Senator Kennedy. " Unnoticed by the national media, Kennedy aides and King supporters distributed the pamphlet in black churches around the nation the Sunday before Election Day.
Blacks had voted 60-40 Republican just four years earlier; this time they voted 70-30 for the Democrat, providing more than enough for Kennedy to win the electoral college and the popular vote by a narrow 113,000 margin nationwide".

"In a news release on Oct. 27, the deadline to apply for a mail or absentee ballot in the state, Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf's office said more than 3 million voters had applied to vote by mail.
The USA Elections Project reports that mail ballot request rates were 1,941,131 for Democrats; 784,851 for Republicans; 25,367 for a minor party; and 336,175 for independents, putting the total number requested at 3,087,524."
Of course since Trump rose to power it seems very few people in the Republican party are capable of telling the truth. You will have to do a lot better Canada!
