    Default 51st state - Washington DC

    No taxation without representation

    'I am very grateful we have a new president' | DC mayor plans for statehood under Biden administration

    Asked if she believes the new administration will quickly progress D.C. to become the 51st state, an effort Washington DC mayor Muriel Bowser has long championed, she seemed hopeful.

    "We have Democratic control of the House of Representatives, the Senate and now the White House, and the leadership in all of those bodies have expressed support for D.C. Statehood," she said, adding that Joe Biden is a "longtime" supporter of the District becoming a state.

    Nobody gives a fuck. FUCK BIDEN....NOT OUR PRESIDENT. You can give the D's a thousand senators and it STILL wont matter. You cannot govern the ungovernable. We concede nothing,....we give nothing. Build what you want but it will be without us . Good luck trying to walk on one leg....

    I remember when conservatives defiantly insisted they would never, under any circumstances, accept gay marriage, legal pot, Obamacare, etc.

    Let me turn this around on you. If I had said 4 years ago, "trump is not my president, that is going to totally ruin trump", you would rightly point out that both trump would not care, and trump is my president whether I want him or not. Whining like a child gets you nowhere.

    I am going to give you some great advice, because I know you will not take it: Figure out what went wrong, and fix it. Republicans have lost this election on almost every level, and if this continues, it will get worse. trump's base is literally dying. Figure out how you can change your strategy to be a winner.

    Who is it you are pretending to rep here?? If I may ask??

    I would venture a guess that you & those you purport to rep here would be very, very happy about DC becoming a state if their politics was more in line w/ your own......
    "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."

    He's just blowing smoke out of his ass like the other big talkers who refused to support Trump at his rally.

    They love to hear themselves talk but would rather hide out than risk their mediocre lives on a loon like Donald J. Trump.
    God bless America and those who defend our Constitution.

    If D.C. becomes a state, will the President have to move elsewhere?

    I get it. What I meant if D.C. becomes a complete 100% state.

    I doubt shrinking the district would be a good idea though.
