WTF Mike. Surrendering already? This is not going away after a couple of recounts.

Maybe I’m too “caught up” in all the election-related news, but it really really annoys me to hear people writing off the presidential election as a loss this early. In my mind, it is nowhere near close to settled.

The old school theme that we must just accept the “impressive” Biden victory. Typical GOPold. Oh shucks, they put together a hell of a fraud machine. We have to tip our hats and move on. We will get em next time.

Even if Trump isn’t successful here, the smart politics for anyone hoping to be the nominee in 2024 is to defend Trump to the bitter end. The GOPold is delusional to think that anyone in their camp will have the Trump expanded party without embracing the man and his agenda.

Bush v Gore wasn’t settled until mid December.

I can’t imagine anyone with half a brain voting for Byedone or Rats for that matter. Of course I’m looking through a prism of truth and decency. I was listening to Catholic radio before the election and they said they couldn’t support one candidate over another. My God. The Catholics are so hooked on social justice and confused about immigrants rights they don’t realize they’re voting for baby killers when they vote democrat. Not all of course but Jesus said that you’re either with me or against me.

Trump is opposing Amnesty. He’s building The Wall. He’s not “reaching out” the way Reagan opines.

He’s being honest. He’s attempting to do what is right.

It’s a respect for his fellow Man that Lindsay Graham will never understand.

Nor most, or all, politicians.

Those Catholics are confused. They are so worried that if they promote one candidate over another, that their tax write offs will be negated, and then they’ll be up Schitt’s Creek.

What’s amazing is that Facebook, Twitter, and others actually do this already, but Congress does nothing to change their status.

Real Catholics know the Truth. Trump is the most pro-life president in our lifetime. He deserved every Catholic vote. He got mine. Again.

Good point. I would also get off this stupid blather on how much better Trump did among different racial/ethnic groups. Hispanics may be one story; but this fixation on black voters is mystifying. If Trump’s share of the black vote was 12% and Mitt Romney’s was 8% in 2012, then that sounds impressive until you realize that blacks are only 13% of the population. A four point increase in that group is an “impressive” gain that only results in a 0.5% change in your support at the end of the day.

It all sounds familiar. The king is dead, long live us on the victories he won and the progress he made and the prosperity he brought us, but he was SUCH an embarrassment!
It’s often been this way for nations and for companies. The founders, the creative forces, the unpolished “old man,” belong to rude frontier days. Tip of the hat to him but let’s be civilized now. Feast on the corpse with the correct fork.

All these never-Trumpers make me sick.

Recounts? First there is the problem with the election software that was programmed to jigger the vote- the so-called software glitch. But this isn't about counting the ballots, but about auditing the vote to locate which criminals were responsible for fabricating and suppressing votes to steal the election.

I wouldn't have thought him a RINO, but there you go.

People seem to forget that both Reagan and Nixon had enemies in the GOPe.

The Catholics aren’t confused, and it has nothing to do with their tax-exempt status.

The Catholic Church in the U.S. isn’t a religious institution anymore. It’s a giant non-profit organization that gets billions of dollars in taxpayer funds to finance its “charitable” efforts.

I know. There a lot of faithful Catholics. If they used their power as a whole for good our country would be a much better place. When you have the left having no problem with pope Frankie that tells you everything.

I agree; the real path to victory lies with the Hispanic vote. While Trump was able to increase his percentage of the black vote and was really the first R candidate to reach out to the black community since Reagan, we still witnessed huge majorities for the Ds, including against wonderful candidates like John James and Emily Kieczak.

Everyone needs to remember that Joe Biden is extremely vulnerable to Chinese blackmail: his son may have skated prosecution so far - but the Chinese have their hooks deeply into the Biden family.

President Trump, on the other hand is the only President for the last several decades who has pushed back on Chinese expansionism and aggression.

It is critical that all of us fight back through every legal, editorial, and communications means to overcome the obvious cheating encountered during this election.

I didn't realize Michael Reagan was still alive.

Good for him.

Bush v Gore wasn’t settled until mid December.

Bush v. Gore was about flipping 327 votes in four Florida counties. And the guy who was behind in the count lost.

Trump is behind by tens of thousands of votes in states he will need to flip. Anyone who thinks that Amy Coney-Barrett is going to step in and award Trump the tens of thousands of votes he will need to win the EC is high. It's not going to happen.

Simple fact is, Trump told his voters to NOT vote by mail. It couldn't be trusted. And then he told voters to vote by mail and again in person. WTF? Joe Biden sat in his basement with his mask on and told voters to simply fill out a piece of paper and drop it in the mailbox. 104 million Americans did just that, and most of these mailed-in ballots had Biden's name on them.

Was there fraud? Probably. Did this fraud benefit Democrats? It always does. Are they going to find tens of thousands of fraudulent ballots across multiple states and flip the election? That's highly unlikely.

They thought President Trump would be so far behind by dinner time that he'd have to call Joe Biden and concede.
