I haven't seen either Biden, Obama or Pelosi use the same rabble rousing language in the way that Trump has done.
The fact that the antifa assholes have caused so much damage isn't their doing.
I was only joking

So far Trump supporters seem sad but resigned.
I don’t think that will last. Hannity and Tucker will froth them up tonight and Rush will take his shift in the morning.
Probably we’ll see some take to the streets. Especially around poll counting locations.

I’m surprised you believe this. I believe the opposite.

Right, all that damage is the result of individual, tribless folk.

let's also keep in mind that Trump was publicly undermined by the left through the NYT. The adults in the room. They were literally disobeying him, publically, because they were superior. Ok then.

While they are superb at tirelessly complaining about their mistreatment, they are very poor at looking in the mirror and asking whether they bear any of the blame for the drop in faith and credibility that the public is willing to vest in them.
Perhaps they avoid asking that question because the answer is so self-evident. If you lie to the public constantly, if you demonstrate to them that you are willing to tolerate, employ and even reward liars to deliver the news, then it is not only natural that the public will lose all faith in your credibility. It is rational, and very well-deserved..

It wasn't republicans gathered outside the White House last night planning to sack the town if Trump won. It was democrats.
Republicans will do what they always dob- shrug it off and go back to work.

The republicans will bury Mr. Trump's memory as fast as they can.
They'll dump the truck flag guys in a heartbeat.
Somebody clever could come along and pick up the truck flag guys.
I'd probably be happy to vote for him or her. It could be a republican or another non-traditional politician.
The swamp is not yet entirely drained.
I'm not so sure. Even more than the Fox Network, I think Trump could be here to stay - as a force in media - a media he can control, completely. I don't think the Republicans could or would ignore him.

If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

The riots have been going on in Portland steadily. It's just not reported in the national news. Mayor Wheeler won reelection. It's probably disconcerting for Antifa, I believe they were looking forward to rioting bigtime. Really awful stuff going on, like 2 nights ago the cops arrived at a Starbucks where Antifa poured gasoline all over the place ready to torch it. What was so awful was that the Starbucks was on the ground floor of an apartment building. Fortunate that the cops arrived.
The good news? Decades from now, students will be reading about the crazy year 2020. All that happened will fit nicely into actual history books, or revisionist history books.
We will all be famous!
Thanks, Life!!

You say that as a true conservative who reluctantly supports Trump.
Those boys with the flags on their trucks are quite different from you.

Almost half the country voted for Trump. A little over half of it voted against him. I think very few people actually voted for Biden.
Hillbillies. So-called idiots in pickup trucks. Etc. As long as they supported Trump, apparently they are the less intelligent among us.
Are you turning into some kind of elitist?
