    You keep deliberately avoiding the names of those businesses that are demanding this transition. All big banks and hedge funds. All have paid the likes of HRC and Obama millions for "speeches". Big business buying out Democrat politicians. What do you think you are going to get out of that?

    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    "Scoop: Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman says Trump lost"
    https://www.axios.com/blackstone-ceo...2317e5066.html

    "It's over. That's what Blackstone chairman, CEO and co-founder Steve Schwarzman — one of President Trump's most loyal allies — and other top Republicans are signaling to the defeated president, 16 days after Joe Biden clinched the win."


    Sailor. If you don'y know what Blackstone is, just ask.

    And completely avoiding my direct question to you. Big business knows that it is easy to buy Democrat politicians. Democrat politicians have and will continue to sell out the American public to big business. Democrat politicians rely on stupid people like yourself to keep them in power to sell out America. So keep floundering there Jack.

    And exactly what I predicted. Shocking and stuff, yeah. After election night I predicted that this would go on like that until Trump was pretty much sure he had no pathway to victory through the courts. I still think that he'll keep trying until the SCOTUS tells him to stop though.

    You can try to make it partisan if you like. Both Parties support Corporate America and Capitalism.

    The ONLY reason that Trump ended up waving the white flag and allowed the GSA to move forward, not by any sense of doing what’s best for the country. He was pushed and out of options

    A truth that right wingers should believe.

    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

    I figured if Trump lost, it would be 'Rigged Election', but if he won it would be 'Biggest Landslide in History' ... kind of what it was 4 years ago.

    (seriously, if it wasn't for COVID, I think Trump would have won on the Economy alone)

    Jack, you are a fool. One party sells out the country to corporate America at the peril to American citizens. That would be Democrats. The other party practices capitalism to pay for America. You really need to learn a little here.

    At this point, I'm not sure what happened. Either way, it signaled 'The End'.

    LMAO! Go back read your own posts. I should have known talking to someone who does not invest nor know anything about finances or the economy would be talking intelligently about it.
