Political Opinion

I get the joking part, Trump being a politician, what message are you trying to convey to the American people by putting that comedian on? By doing so, you have sent a divisive signal to the American people, especially in light of your past acts, deeds, and speeches.

One could say based on Trump’s history it falls in line with Trump’s personality

It’s such a self-own. Yea, I didn’t get the strategy of having him. Maybe it’s all part of the plan somehow. Publicity. Good or bad.

All publicity is good publicity or feeding your fan base.

America is a little tight at the moment. :v:

If Trump don’t win tonight.

Proud Boys claim they’ll be at polling places as Trump ups violent rhetoric and election fraud claims

As Donald Trump yet again tells his supporters he can lose Tuesday only if there’s massive voter fraud and as he ramps up violent rhetoric about Democrats and other “enemies,” members of the far-right group that put more “boots on the ground” than any other at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, say they’re mobilizing.

The last time Trump tried to overturn his election loss, the Proud Boys played a critical role, jumping into action on Jan. 6 just weeks after Trump gave the group a major recruitment boost by telling it to “stand back and stand by” during a presidential debate. The group, which was “thirsting for violence and organizing for action,” sent members to the Capitol to act as “Donald Trump’s army,” federal prosecutors said later. Several Proud Boys leaders were ultimately convicted of seditious conspiracy and are still in prison, including former chairman Enrique Tarrio, who is serving 22 years, the longest sentence given to any Jan. 6 defendant.

But the decentralized all-male far-right group remains active around the country, and some of its members are openly making plans to get involved in Tuesday’s elections, as Trump closes his campaign by talking about shooting through the media; calls his political opponents “evil,” “dangerous” and “the enemy within”; and spreads more baseless predictions of election fraud.

At least 30 of the 34 active and public Telegram channels operated by Proud Boys chapters across the country have once again been rallying support for Trump, posting pro-Trump content since the beginning of October, according to an analysis by Advance Democracy, a nonprofit research organization. Many groups are posting memes and content that suggest that the 2024 election will be stolen from Trump.

Two Proud Boys chapters, both based in Ohio, say they’ll be watching the polls on Election Day, according to posts reviewed by NBC News. The Proud Boys of Columbus recently posted a claim that they had enrolled members as poll watchers and poll workers.

“The task is simply too important to trust to regular normies,” a post reposted Monday read, “so it was an all-hands-on-deck effort.”

Another Proud Boys group in Ohio recently posted that it was “watching polls everywhere” ahead of Election Day.

“Locked, loaded, and ready for treasonous voter fraud,” an account wrote Sunday before it added an anti-gay slur. “Stand back and stand by f-----s.”

Three other Proud Boys Telegram channels elsewhere in the country have also shared an image of a masked man holding a gun with the words “FREE MEN DO NOT OBEY PUBLIC SERVANTS” emblazoned over him, the report from Advance Democracy found.

Republicans take Senate majority

Republicans seized control of the U.S. Senate late Tuesday after flipping Democratic held seats, holding onto GOP incumbents and wresting away the majority for the first time in four years.

The unexpected battleground of Nebraska pushed Republicans over the top. Incumbent GOP Sen. Deb Fischer brushed back a surprisingly strong challenge from independent newcomer Dan Osborn.

Democrats watched their efforts to salvage their slim majority slip out of reach.

Early in the night, Republicans flipped one seat in West Virginia, with the election of Jim Justice, the state’s governor, who replaced retiring Sen. Joe Manchin, and then another in Ohio when Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown lost to wealthy newcomer Bernie Moreno.

Democratic efforts to oust firebrand Republicans Ted Cruz of Texas and Rick Scott of Florida collapsed.

And there are more Senate races still to come. The focus now turns to the Democratic “blue-wall” states of Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, where Democrats are fighting to protect seats and avoid a Republican sweep of the Senate.

It’s a political coda for outgoing Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell, who has made a career charting the path to power and recruiting wealthy Republicans in races that topped $2 billion with outside spending.

With control of Congress at stake, the contests for the House and Senate will determine which party holds the majority and the power to boost or block a president’s agenda, or if the White House confronts a divided Capitol Hill.

The House races are in a state-by-state slog. For Republicans, it’s a chance to gain full control of Congress as they try to sweep into power. For Democrats, a House majority will give them an important check on the GOP’s power and force compromise in Washington.

Congratulations America!
Congratulations Donald Trump.

Sanity prevails - the world is a better place today.
Love to America from England.

There you have it. Voters did the speaking at the ballot box. Let’s keep moving.

What a blowout! When the final 3 states are added, President-Elect Trump will have 312 EVs and a 5 million-vote lead in the popular vote.

It seems like you and your boys would be having a blast out here.

Why 3 days after the election California has only counted 58% of the vote? These long delays in counting the vote leads voters to question the integratie of the process.

I see what you are saying. You should do a little research on the matter instead of speculating. There is no need to keep crying. Wipe your tears either way; it doesn’t matter.

Republicans on brink of clinching US House control after taking Senate

Republicans on Saturday were close to clinching control of the U.S. House of Representatives, a critical element for President-elect Donald Trump to advance his agenda when he returns to the White House in January.

With votes still being counted from the Nov. 5 general election, Republicans had won 213 seats in the 435-member House, according to Edison Research, which projected on Saturday night that Representative Dan Newhouse had enough votes to keep Republican control of Colorado’s 3rd congressional district.

Republicans need to win five more seats to keep control of the House and they already have enough victories to wrest control of the U.S. Senate from Democrats, though Edison Research projected late on Friday that Democratic U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen won reelection in Nevada.

Edison Research said Democrats have won 205 seats so far, including projecting on Saturday that Representative Greg Stanton in Arizona had won re-election. Democrats would need to win 13 of the remaining 17 seats to take control.

With Trump’s victory in the presidential election and Republican winning control of the Senate, keeping hold of the House would give Republicans sweeping powers to potentially ram through a broad agenda of tax and spending cuts, energy deregulation and border security controls.

So, got a message I was charged membership to Babypips. Yes, lots of great info and learning. Then you have the forums. Filled with mentally challenged individuals. Who believe come January, the world will be fantastic. People with more than half a brain cell disagree. And I am paying to argue with imbeciles, who think massive tariffs on import is a good thing. Like my grandmother said, against stupidity even the Gods are helpless. Stupidity is total. No argument can fight stupidity. Because the alternative is incomprehensible to the stupid. To the stupid there is only one. The answer to any question is one. Does not matter if all science, history, experience, facts, reality say otherwise, the answer is always one. Enter the MAGA, and stupidity got a “stamp” of truth. A loudspeaker of alternative truth.
What the MAGA idiots do not understand, is there is no going back. This is forever. You can undo executive orders and laws, but you can not undo the seeds of idiocy planted in young minds. Sure, we can educate them, teach them actual life knowledge, but fantasy and make believe reality is more enticing.
This is a turning point, one to go down in history. President-elect has chosen a cabinet of utterly unqualified people, meaning the first two weeks will be hell. Then T-rump fires them, and we get even madder people in.

There was a specific time when the Roman Empire fell. There is a time when the Western society falls. And that time is January 2025.
