Basically, he's saying that most people who voted for Biden are contemptible.
Remember how well that argument worked for Hillary Clinton and Mitt Romney?

Chump...
Hillary called them "a basket of deplorables." Romney said that 47% of the population would never vote for him, ever.
I see a bit of a difference in the comments, unless you're referring to a different Romney comment.

I work part-time. This guy can fuck himself (and probably has to resort to that with regularity).

The point is that denigrating large numbers of voters has not been shown to be particularly effective.
And I'm with Aqua. That guy can go fuck himself. The reasons for people needing to work part-time, or having failed marriages, or not going to church, or whatever other thing that may happen, are many and varied.,

THe arthur has a good way of drawing conclusions from very minimal set of data.
"If more people decided to work full time to earn a living, that would be bad for Democrats -- and good for Republicans. If more people decided not to work full time to earn a living, that would be bad for Republicans -- and good for Democrats."
It would be interesting to see avg income of President Trump voter vs. President elect Biden voter.
It probably would be pretty close. President elect Biden (I think) seems to get the voters on the ends - poor and rich, and President Trump seems to get more from the middle.

I’ll remind everybody that the majority of votes were mail in and didn’t participate in exit polls...

I’m two out of the three and I voted for Biden.

Which electorate do you think would do a better job of keeping this country prosperous and free?
The ones who aren't all going be dead soon?

How many child abuse cases has the church tried to cover up? Of those cases, how many of those folks do you think found it easy to start a stable relationship or actually step foot in a church again? What do we say to that, "fuck them I guess, they're not the ones keeping this country prosperous and free"?

Hard to participate in exit polls when you've been dead for over a year...

You should certainly know about that one! Lol

Ah, the article hit a nerve. Good.
Regardless of the author's conclusions, what does the data say?
Basically, old people tend to be more conservative. Big surprise.
-
It means nothing. All it means is that of the people that voted on Election Day, which is a vast minority of voters this year.

Also, people who cant or wont work and who lack a spiritual foundation tend to vote for free stuff.

The author of the article was apparently research director for Patrick Buchanan's Republican primary campaign against President George H.W. Bush.
So, he should be used to losing elections.
