I agree 100%, but why waste energy even discussing when the Republican Senate won't tell the Emporer he's naked and lost the election?    For national security, he should be removed now...but it'll never happen.

I've been saying the same thing for years.  Even before Biden won the election, how is he not be seen as negligent?  I know the GOP backs him in the senate and otherwise but come on.  This clown is a complete menace!  He is literally killing people by the thousands by not doing his job or allowing anyone to do their jobs competently.  This was clear the first WEEK he was in office.  Why he's not been taken out by the seat of his pants due to incompetence is beyond me.

Oh, I know RD was spot on. Even if the entire military and other 'deployed' folks voted absentee, it wouldn't amount to what Donnie alleges. Absentee votes are at least a tangible issue - the ones Donnie's pushing are straight up fiction.

At this stage of the game Trump should be impeached for treason and dereliction of duty and removed from office (if nothing more that as an example) before his term ends. He continues to hurt America and the Constitution in unimaginable ways while continuing to push an agenda solely focused on self-interest while consciously ignoring a national/worldwide crisis.
 
The fact that he hasn't allowed Biden's Transition Team access to the resources that they need at the height of the pandemic is criminal negligence. Can't he (as a responsible leader) authorize that access while still letting the rest of the lawsuits follow due process and maintain (incorrectly) that he won the election?
  
He is soul-less man devoid of any sense of ethics, responsibility or empathy who only deserves our collective scorn as he moves forward with a self-serving agenda intended to set himself up as a future power-broker all at the expense of the American people. He has always demanded respect but never knew how to earn it.
 
IMO he doesn't deserve to serve as our President one day more.

Even though he is technically attacking the absentees....that's not what Trump is saying. He's just not intelligent enough to clearly articulate his point.

He is arguing that there are more votes than people because the ballot boxes have been flooded with bogus votes.  He's not talking about 10 or 20 thousand, he is making the case that there are hundreds of thousands or millions.    To Red's point...it's total BS.

No, no, it's true. Absentee voters, like those pesky military folks, some of whom are deployed overseas, would skew the votes to show more people voted than actually live there. South Korea alone has something like 30,000 active-duty US military there - if those folks vote, well, there you go. They're not living in their home state, or any state for that matter - are they still allowed to vote?

What? But absentee ballots are illegitimate? So military folks votes don't count? The majority of military are non-coms, often from lower socio-economic situations, and/or non-white. So yeah, deploy them overseas so their votes can't be counted. Heck, they don't even need to be deployed! Say some kid from Idaho gets stationed at Fort Hood - but his permanent address, if he has one, is still in Idaho. If he votes absentee, in Idaho where all his family is, his vote is illegitimate. Makes perfect sense.

This is what burns me so much about Donnie's attack on absentee voting. My family voted absentee for decades - now all of a sudden it's suspect? THAT is Pure Bullshit.

Hey was that the Covid Task Force? 

In certain swing states, there were more votes than people who voted, and in big numbers. Does that not really matter? Stopping Poll Watchers, voting for unsuspecting people, fake ballots and so much more. Such egregious conduct. We will win!


Pure bullshit

How Trump Hopes to Use Party Machinery to Retain Control of the G.O.P.

What was your "pro-tip for young women" again, about "not to dye their hair blonde"? 

It seems, not the USA (in this small case), but you have some issues to resolve there. No?

Ganging up on Kurt - yah - it seems is all you can do. Why not take a look in the mirror? A "deep" one?!  

Trust me.

Oh Really?   The giveaway is the "Then you can move to China, eh?"     

Mind you I have heard a lot of liberal and progressive journalists parroting the lies of the Trump administration in regards to Chinese industrial policy over the past while.  So maybe a racist attitude towards the Chinese is widely shared in the USA?

Trump's monumental sulk: president retreats from public eye as Covid ravages US

Amid the deafening silence, Trump’s only “proof of life” since Biden’s victory has been a handful of public events at the White House and a military cemetery, weekend outings to his golf course in Virginia and a barrage of tweets airing grievances and pushing baseless conspiracy theories that the election was stolen from him. “I don’t think we’ve had a president since Richard Nixon who is as far in the bunker and detached from the country as Donald Trump is right now,” said Larry Jacobs, director of the Center for the Study of Politics and Governance at the University of Minnesota.

“Donald Trump has not only suffered a catastrophic political defeat, he’s clearly also suffering from a deep emotional break. This behavior is even more erratic than usual and he has retreated. He has put himself in a form of psychological isolation. His emotional state is clearly abysmal. In the popular lexicon, he’s lost it.”

Trump’s hermit-like status has proved irresistible to comedians, historians and overseas commentators. He has been compared to a tyrant in a fragile democracy holed up in a presidential palace and plotting either an internal coup or a sudden escape across the border. Late-night TV host Stephen Colbert observed: “Well, history famously holds happy endings for autocrats who lose and then retreat to their bunker.” (...)

Jacobs commented: “Here’s the captain of the ship who’s missing, and the ship is really listing badly to the side, taking on water as more and more people are getting ill and dying. The president is not only missing from his post, but he’s encouraging a mutiny. There’s no precedent in American history for this kind of deranged behaviour.”
