    The coup was a Demonkkkrat coup, and it was successful. On January 20th, Joe Biden will be installed as Prime Minister of the SOA...

    Not at all. The USA was the greatest country on Earth for over a couple hundred years. I am claiming that the SOA will be a shithole country...

    The USA is now the SOA.

    Again, what does population have to do with anything? What point are you even making? Yes, the SOA has a population of roughly 330M (I suspect that this population will be significantly decreasing in the near future as secession and/or civil war will be taking place). Your point??

    No, they haven't.

    How long did it take you to type that bullshit, INT/IBDa/gfm?

    Larger populations are more difficult to please. Ask anyone who ever belonged to a club or HOA; more people = more points of view.

    You can also consider the comment by 15th century monk John Lydgate and allegedly repeated by Abe Lincoln: “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time.”

    Smaller groups are easier to please because there is less people to disagree.

    You are making the unfounded assumption that things going on in those videos were improper because the video said it was. Georgia has already shown those "suitcases" under the table were ballot boxes they use for all ballots.

    There would be as many statistical anomalies if they claimed Trump won: Democrats have won the popular vote in 7 of the last eight presidential elections. Biden outperformed Hillary Clinton in 44 states (about 2% per state).

    Trump's claim that nobody has ever won FL and OH and lost the presidential election is easily proven wrong. Biden actually underperformed Hillary in the large urban areas where most of the fraud allegedly occurred. Republican members of Congress outperformed the president which would not have happened if there was fraud.

    You can check the official state stats to see that no areas had more votes than registered voters as Trump claimed. One of those statistical improbabilities that occurred in MI actually used data from MN.

    Read some of those "sworn" affidavits. A lot of the claims are not anything illegal. Talking mean about Republicans is not voter fraud.

    And, apparently fraud only occurred in areas where Trump lost.

    Think of a BLM protest which is largely peaceful but turns into a riot with multiple arrests and a nationwide manhunt. Another one is scheduled two weeks later. How many will show? My guess is that it would be far, far smaller. The thousands attending Trump's riot rally mainly came there to peacefully protest. Only a few came to kill Americans and attempt to overthrow the United States of America. Most Trump supporters/RWers will stay away from such stupidity.

    I expect we'll see a handful of nutjobs do as SYT suggested; attempt to drive a truck bomb to murder Americas, attack a police station or commit mass murder such as a Congressman and his family. The nutjobs will be shot down where they stand or arrested for terrorism. The terrorist dead will be despised and the innocent Americans murdered by them will be mourned. The nation will move forward and, hopefully, learn from this excess of extremism.
    I hope you are right about the numbers, but I fear that you could be wrong. Just looked up #TRE45ON's approval rating -- it is *still* at 33% even after all of this. (Per https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trum...w-poll-1560597)

    I am. Look around your neighborhood. The people in the stores, everyone with a business that would suffer from this type of bullshit.

    Here's the key to any insurrection and overthrow of a government: You need the majority support of both the citizenry and the military. These assholes have neither. In a week they'll either be dead or arrested. Their own families will turn them in. No one wants this country to collapse into anarchy or Trumpian tyranny....well, except for a few nutjobs.

    Wow, Trump dropped 15 points in less than a week? Think what it will be when RW nutjobs start murdering Americans as "collateral damage".

    Probably more like 10 -- but damn!

    Thanks. You sound very much like Mr. Owl, who tends to be far less reactionary than I do.

    I do recall, speaking of predictions, in the first week of this new year, challenging Sister Stench and her sibs to meet back here on Jan. 7th and see if Biden was confirmed. Have you see any of those prophets since?

    I've noticed a very loud silence from that part of the room. Stretch will probably return, but I wonder if, like Mr. Owl, if they have a Mr. Stretch or a Mr. Life is Golden who are much further over the line than they are. It would explain the silence.

    Can't rationalize with irrational people.

    Agreed it's good to make a stand for the truth, but that's for the sane people who are questioning what they are being told. The nut jobs will never be dissuaded from their delusions.

    I hear that Hillary's pizza parlor guy was dropping bundles of ties around so innocent trump supporters that were in the building, by accident, looking for their lost cat, mistakenly picked them up.. Just being a good Samaritan looking around for the one that lost them so he could return them.....
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Why, they have the same inputs we do. Mental illness can be corrected or ameliorated. Is there a pill? If they were persuaded in they can be persuaded out of contrary to reality beliefs.
    I find your thought not necessarily untrue, mostly depressing.

    Thanks Al Gore! You made the nutjobs equal to sane people!

    Mental illness is as varied viruses. Some can be cured, some ameliorated, some will just kill you.

    Was depressing a joke? Because it was funny. The world is getting better and will continue to do so...unless the planet gets hit by a big rock, then we're all fucked.
