Politics Thread

I don't see Democrats turning out heavily for a runoff in either December or January. It's a lot more likely that the Collins voters will back Kelly Loeffler and give the Republicans a hold in the Senate.

In contrast, Arizona is one of the few places that has election results that were more in line with polling.

A republican senate and a Biden presidency is the best outcome with two incredibly flawed and polarizing candidates. Hope both parties do some soul searching and put forth better candidates in 2024.

What could be more undemocratic than the President of the United States tweeting out "Stop the Count"?

It's like living in a banana republic.

I’ve followed this thread for the entire time, never posted. Upfront I voted for Trump, thought Biden would win. That looks to be true, I’m ok with our process working even though my guy looks to be the loser. What bothers me the most is the division in this country between left and right. It’s been seen in the comments in this thread. It hit home for me tonight. We have a group that walks every night. (Our bubble). My sister-in-law whom I love dearly was up all night. Couldn’t sleep, worrying about a Trump win. She is a great person but has a visceral hatred for Trump. I’ve seen this too much on both sides. If it doesn’t change I’m afraid the needle won’t move. I have no answers, just one man’s opinion.

Thanks for sharing. I feel the same way. I voted for Trump as well as I feel what he wanted to do was the best for the country but his personality is what did him in. The hatred that has come out over the past 4 years is disgusting. If we don’t start coming together as a country it’s going to be bad for our future. People need to calm down and do what’s best for everyone as a whole. You can’t expect to have everything you want. There has to be some give and take and accept the differences in opinion others have. The hate needs to end.

Not picking a deplorable human being to lead one of the two political parties would be a good first step.

I don't think Biden is a deplorable human being. Now, Hillary Clinton on the other hand....

Biden is a shill who HAS lied and will say anything to get a vote. He's proven that over and over again over his long, unflattering career. The entire situation with his son is laughable for him to claim he knew nothing of his corrupt foreign business dealings.

The American people need to push for massive political reform.

Actually stopping the count.

I still think something shady is going on in AZ. How can all the polls be so off around the country but correct here?!

I sincerely hope that you had your sarcasm font engaged with this post.
