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.
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.
People seem to forget that both Reagan and Nixon had enemies in the GOPe.
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.
Good for him.
He had me until that sentence, then I stopped reading.
Mike, the Surrender Monkey.
All Republicans are beginning to surrender and starting to speak of "the inevitable".
Don't give up so easily. Trump thrives on and loves chaos.
I hope Trump can pull it out, but it looks like too much fraud in all the right states. The media and the dems told us ahead of time what would happen with a red mirage.
CHECK THIS OUT - How would we like to be in this position? Perhaps we will be. Imagine in that time, people didn’t even know - didn’t have the means in the nation to learn of it - what was done. Adams with fewer popular votes and fewer electoral votes than Jackson and STILL became president - thanks to the House! Called a “corrupt bargain” - you think? Amazing history!

Presidential election decided in the House
As no presidential candidate received a majority of electoral votes in the election of 1824, the U.S. House of Representatives votes to elect John Quincy Adams, who won fewer votes than Andrew Jackson in the popular election, as president of the United States. Adams was the son of John Adams, the second president of the United States.
In the 1824 election, 131 electoral votes, just over half of the 261 total, were necessary to elect a candidate president. Although it had no bearing on the outcome of the election, popular votes were counted for the first time in this election. On December 1, 1824, the results were announced. Andrew Jackson of Tennessee won 99 electoral and 153,544 popular votes; John Quincy Adams of Massachusetts received 84 electoral and 108,740 popular votes; Secretary of State William H. Crawford, who had suffered a stroke before the election, received 41 electoral votes; and Representative Henry Clay of Kentucky won 37 electoral votes.
As dictated by the U.S. Constitution, the presidential election was then turned over to the House of Representatives. The 12th Amendment states that if no electoral majority is won, only the three candidates who receive the most popular votes will be considered in the House.
Representative Henry Clay, who was disqualified from the House vote as a fourth-place candidate, agreed to use his influence to have John Quincy Adams elected. Clay and Adams were both members of a loose coalition in Congress that by 1828 became known as the National Republicans, while Jackson’s supporters were later organized into the Democratic Party.
Thanks to Clay’s backing, on February 9, 1825, the House elected Adams as president of the United States. When Adams then appointed Clay to the top Cabinet post of secretary of state, Jackson and his supporters derided the appointment as the fulfillment of a corrupt bargain.
