"Official" Sorry but the AP and CNN are not the officials who call the election.

I’ll ask the clueless buffoon again (even knowing he could not answer the first time I asked)
Foggy,
Specifically how did Trump “[try] to destroy this great nation,” asshole?
(sorry, I might have gotten the close-quotation mark in the wrong spot)

The more I think about it, the more I believe our national elections are kind of like the game of football -- both are constantly evolving.
In football, you can no longer win a championship by running Larry Csonka and Jim Kiick up the middle fifty times a game for 3 1/2 hards a carry like the old Miami Dolphins. The rules have changed so that only quarterbacks and wide receivers are important, and the game has become a simple one of pitch and catch. Teams have had to adapt or die.
A generation ago, you went to your polling site on election day, filled out a ballot and slipped it into a box. When the polls closed, bald-headed old men and blue-haired old women tallied up the votes and you knew who won the election by midnight. Now, we mail tens of millions of ballots to unknown destinations. It doesn't matter if you're living or dead, if you're a citizen or not, if you live at the same address or not, or if you receive multiple ballots. Anyone can fill them out and mail them in, sometimes many days after the election. Then they are counted not by human eyes, but by sophisticated scanners and software programs that are as susceptible to hacking and manipulation as any other software on the planet. High-speed printers can print tens of thousands of ballots overnight, and they can be filled out and delivered to key precincts before dawn, with unbelievable swings in voter preference. And those are just some of the flaws.
Like football, the game has changed. Now the winning team is the one that can cheat the best, and as usual, Democrats were first to the party. It behooves the GOP to set as their goal the ability to cheat ten times better than Democrats in 2022 and 2024, because that's the new path to the Super Bowl.

It's not like GOP leadership is doing anything about it.
Seriously, look at the Democratic party - they're incredibly loud. They preach all over social media, the regular media, and take to the streets. They constantly attack the GOP (in particular, Trump) and drown out any GOP voices.
Frankly, there's no other way to put it, the GOP are filled with a bunch of pussies. The GOP is a perfect mix of Jeb Bush and Mitt Romney - quiet and are completely fine with being pushed around.
I'm tired of it.

Words of the day.
Drag and drop......
President Trump could have as many a 3,000,000 more votes.

It sometimes makes me wonder what percentage of conservative men actually have no testicles. In a perverse way, we conservatives have gotten what they deserve, because there's something to be said for passion. Now if it ever comes to a shooting confrontation with the high possibiity of death, we'll see that liberals are all talk and no walk. They will trample each other as they cut and run.

What a damn crybaby! . You tried to destroy this great nation, asshole. Why don't you shut the fuck up, stop crying, wipe your widdle nose and get the fuck out of our way? Folks, here's the party of "decency", spewing more indecent hatred for their political opposition in one post than we've managed in almost 29,000 posts in close to two years. Foggy, we asked this of your running mate a while back and the result was....less than stellar: Can you name one single significant accomplishment in Joe Biden's 44-year career in Washington, D.C.?

The point is that Trump supporters--based on the election fraud--aren't buying the media-approved results. You shouldn't either. These kinds of rallies were happening all over the nation yesterday, which is pretty remarkable. This didn't happen when Mitt Romney lost in 2012, or when Hillary lost in 2016. If Joe Biden is indeed inaugurated, he will be a lame duck from Day One. GOP voters will never accept the legitimacy of a stolen election. We are not quietly going back to D.C.'s "business as usual" restoration under lifetime Swamp dweller Joe Biden. I will say it again--there's no way Joe Biden had 78 million votes. He was--by orders of magnitude--a worse candidate than Hillary Clinton, who was atrocious. No way, no logical explanation possible. I understand all that, but it also makes little difference right now. This election reminds me of O.J. Simpson killing Ron and Nicole. Everyone knew he did it, but proving it was a whole different story. We are down by ten runs in the bottom of the ninth, we have two outs and nobody on base. It does little good to keep complaining that the other team used steroids or stole our signs. Though the result may be the same, justice and truth still demand that every effort be made to expose the crime--just like the Los Angeles D.A. did in the O.J. case. That case was proven beyond a shadow of a doubt; it was only through Johnnie Cochran's race-baiting that the jury nullified the proper verdict. As long as the evidence of the 2020 election fraud is presented to the courts and to the public, that's all we can--and must--do. If that isn't done, then we're done as a republic. Faith in the electoral process will be destroyed beyond repair. This is way bigger than who will be inaugurated on January 20.

This is the kind of system we should have. Paper ballots, counted by hand by multiple observers from different parties, with voter ID required. Almost impossible to commit fraud--so of course the Left will never go for it.

The media and big tech are trying to convince us of the impossible.
