The ordinary decent people of America were fooled one time. They werenāt going to be fooled again
What is taking so long in Alaska? Tiny population so they should really have counted the votes by now.
You could probably save us both some trouble if you read what I wrote instead of what you would like for me to have written.
Many millions voted to help try and end racial inequality. I think thatās a good thing. Iām not sure why you canāt leave that alone and feel the need to respond to it with irrelevancies about progressives and Obamacare and (gasp) people you know.
If I was being uncharitable Iād say you were just doing your damndest to portray everything in a negative light for anything liberal or Democrat because it suits your personal bias.
If I was being even more uncharitable Iād say you feel the need to respond negatively to any post about racial equality as you have done for many months on here.
But truthfully I couldnāt really care. Iām sure Iāll get your jaded world view back in response but save yourself the trouble. Youāre clearly not reading my posts so Iāll extend the same courtesy to you.

Iām sure they all see it as a dreadful defeat. What would they have seen it as if Trump wins?
One observation Iād make Rocko is that the 30+% of Democrat voters who said their biggest concern is racial inequality are never going to vote Republican ever, no matter no good or bad the economy gets.
Great to see the voters in California strive for true racial equality and dismiss the nonsense of affirmative action

I couldnāt care less about your opinion either, so agree to leave it there.

Agreed. I wasnāt saying it in the context of being great for the Democrats or a resounding shift of voters from Trump. Though I imagine there is a cohort of Republicans and independents who left him because of his policies and pronouncements on race matters.
The point Iām making is simply that Trump was happy to tolerate, support and promote some pretty horrible racists. And rather than ignore or tolerate it, millions of people cited it as their #1 reason for voting for his opponent. I think thatās pretty good for US society and for the world at large given our exposure to US culture and media.

I think youād have to say this is a rejection by the educated American of Trump and what he stands for but to be honest they probably never accepted it in the first place.

Nevada is a complete and utter balls. The Secretary is giving a press conference right now, has basically said that it wonāt be over until Saturday at the latest.
I thought he said Nov 12th? He fairly clamped some reporters there in fairness to him

Core voters for both parties will never vote for the other party, that is more true now than ever in US history. If you want to win more seats in Congress the key is to appeal to Independent voters which is a larger voting block than either partyās core vote.
Yes heās just said they have to accept ballots into next week.
Absolute and utter balls
Itās hard pick ballots apart when youāre bleeding freezing
Fuck. Looks like Iāll have to take next week off now

Pub was probably gonna be closed anyways
We can count ~140 million votes nationwide in a day but itās going to take another 3 or 4 days to count 50,000 in Vegas?
