Yeah. I don’t really go for “Trump will win because <insert some divine cause here>” shenanigans. If Trump wins it will be from presenting a case to SCOTUS that causes either a new vote for contested states, or push to the House.

@pale:
You said you don't watch CNN. Ok, good. All good and fine. So if you are really serious, you would ask yourself this (edited to remove CNN):
"Why the fuck do I think Trump never denied white supremacy? After all, I'm looking at YEARS AND YEARS of examples of him doing just that? I've operated under the impression for 4 years that he just doesn't want to deny white supremacy, yet it seems like he's been doing it all along. Where did that idea come from?"

This sums it up quite well (again). Note: this is not the same video as my first post. This is an entirely different podcast, updated as of yesterday (2020-11-08):

@pale:
*sigh*
You aren't listening. You aren't being serious - which is fine. That seems to be the pattern here.
@millie had a good illustration either in this thread or a different (can't remember right now): If your child was sick and needed a surgery, a complicated surgery, right now, and you had to choose between doctors:
1) A very experience and capable doctor that has done the needed surgery many times, no casualties. But he's not so charming. Maybe he's had 5 wives. Generally a jerk. Maybe rough around the edges. Hell, let's just say (even though this doesn't map with Trump) he's got a grand dragon KKK hood in his office.
or
2) A doctor everyone loves. Charismatic, nice. But loses 1/2 his patients.
Which would you choose? Would you really care so much about doctor #1's faults? There are more pressing issues, and those faults can be set aside for the moment.
I've said it this way:
A man is wheeled into the ER with massive wounds everywhere, perhaps due to a car accident. The ER doctor starts to fix the small cut on the patient's hand while he bleeds out due to the massive chest wounds. How do you feel about this ER doctor?
Focusing on Trump's charisma and his personality is like focusing in on the small cut. There are bigger issues to deal with. There are bigger problems to address in order to prevent death. The left is undermining general western principles. It has been happening for quite some time, but it is accelerated now.
Let me try it this way:
If Biden were to come out tomorrow and say: "Ok guys, we've been a bit stupid. No more identity politics. This systemic racism stuff is garbage. We need to promote systems based on merit. It is not a sign of "whiteness" to get up in the morning and hold a job, to delay gratification and save money. Frankly, we've been pushing real racism for a while and need to back off that. Also, the assault on fossil fuels is a bit exaggerated and we're going to kill a lot of people if we do this. Markets are good, and we have too much regulation, and we have to get our debt under control. And ... let's be honest, the COVID thing was a scare tactic. And good lord, the news media is flat out garbage now, always stoking racial tensions. I mean, CNN is more like the Onion than a news network. And don't get me started with the Green New Deal - that is a document only mentally retarded people take seriously. And, in general, some very western civ values, like freedom of speech and the principle of 'innocent until proven guilty' are actually good things."
There are many more things, but if he said stuff like this, hell, *** I *** would have voted for him.
So try again: It is NOT about Trump. It is about POLICY.

He wants to address "systemic racism". In other words, all races don't seem to be doing same. Let's fix this "equity" problem by implementing racial discrimination and policies that disadvantage some racial groups (white, asian). You know, knock anyone doing well down a peg or two because they are white. YAY Justice!

Eliminate the Oil Industry?
by Anony Mous ina lot of countries are on the side of eliminating the oil industry altogether as well as zero-emission alternatives like nuclear power.. in the us, biden has promised to eliminate all federal lands oil production when he takes power in 2021 (30% of the united states) as well as native american tribal lands which account for 8 percent of all oil, 9 percent of all natural gas, and 6 percent of all natural gas liquids from 96,000 wells (10% of the total wells in the us).. in europe, oil and gas production has been largely eliminated except for the nordic countries and the uk (which the eu recently lost access to), germany is funding a major oil pipeline as is china from russia and russian-controlled portions of ukraine, even after trump cut off all builders from russian oil pipelines, the russian government is now trying to build the pipeline themselves with potential disastrous results.. venezuela's economy collapsed largely due to the government taking over and eliminating the oil industry companies.. in the mean time, control for most non-us energy sources is now wholly dependent on russian and middle eastern governments.. california and germany eliminated oil-based energy sources and now mandate 30% of their power from 'green' wind and solar alternatives.
germany energy costs now hover around 25c/kwh and california is not far behind with 16c/kwh both experiencing rolling blackouts in major cities and importing 60% of mostly coal and gas energy from their neighbors.. the world currently has 300 years worth of oil at the current rates of usage which have stagnated due to improved efficiencies.
co2 emissions in the us have dropped in the last 3 years for the first time in decades despite (or because) reduced oil and gas regulations.. do you think given the above facts, eliminating the oil industry is a good thing?

The market should be making these calculations. I know, the left wants to "force" certain development - for whatever reason. They might think it is more noble, moral, whatever. They haven't learned the lesson from every planned economy that has ever existed - it doesn't work. There are reasons why it doesn't work.
If these green technologies were ready to be used, if they were not a drain on resources, they would be profitable, and you wouldn't need force anything.

Biden is left?
Again, why are you focusing on people? Focus on policy. Yes - he is moving ever leftward.
"wasn’t articulate" is a massive understatement. I've never seen or heard Donald say a single sentence without interrupting himself. Biden doesn't do THAT. (Not that I'm a Biden supporter either by the way). But I agree, being able to formulate a sentence isnt the deciding factor in choosing the leader of a country.
You are not serious. You are trying to focus on Trump's speech patterns and saying he is "unable to formulate a sentence". You are still in the TDS "yo-mama" insult area. You really aren't serious. You skipped over the most important part of my comment, and jumped right back to talking about how Trump talks - but if you were really being serious, you would drop on account of Biden not being much better.
No? What was he doing?
Again, this has been beaten to death. Just a little bit of research, and you would see Trump mocking all sorts of people that way (exact same hand gestures and expressions). He did it to indicate exasperation. He sometimes applied it to himself. You aren't serious. Ten minutes away from CNN and you could have seen this.
Except, he did. If an old man brags about grabbing your genitals without permission you'd be ok with that?
Again, READ the quote. Just read the "grab em" quote. In context, without the news. When you come across the words "they let you", read them again. And again, until you realize you are not being serious. If you were serious, you would shut off CNN for good. Same for Fox.
Careful now, women "WANT it and volunteers it"? Did the women in he grabbed volunteer their vaginas to be grabbed? If it was without permission would you defend that anyway?
If it is without permission, no. See, that is the difference between Clinton and Monica vs Clinton and Paula Jones. Monica was A-OK being used as a human humidor. I have zero problem with that. None. Paula, not so much. If women let powerful, rich men "grab em", why should I care?
Let's see - did I leave anything out? Mexicans == Rapists. Yet another example of just looking at the quote in context. He did not call Mexican's rapists in general.
Oh yeah:
Excellent. Can you send me some links?
Really? Really? No.
LUHE has already posted a linked to a Crower video. He confronts people like you (you know, the "serious" and objective kind willing to listen), and as they are presented with more and more evidence their view is based on media lies, they can't seem to take it.
If you go to YouTube right now... type in "Trump denies white supremacy", you literally get pages of compilations, some over 3 forking years old! If you are serious - you need to ask yourself:
"Why the fuck do I think Trump never denied white supremacy? After all, I'm looking at YEARS AND YEARS of examples of him doing just that? I watched CNN tell me for 4 years that he just doesn't want to deny white supremacy, yet it seems like he's been doing it all along. Maybe, just maybe, they are lying to me about pretty much everything else."

@frozen:
Yeap - even today Biden said he was going to reverse that horrible racist Muslim travel ban. I’m sure there was absolutely no purpose for that travel ban, other than to be racist. Things should be fine.

I just noticed your second follow-up:
But I understand your frustration, your candidate is history starting January 20 of next year.
Meh. Like I’ve said on other threads - I’ll live. You won’t see me out burning cities with a pink pissy hat, looting target (because that’s the way to deal with loss and anger, right?)There will be more gridlock. It wasn’t about the candidate. Good lord, why do people focus on the person?
But as it has been pointed out here about remembering the rules, is it okay for you to call me a bigot because I assumed someone's gender?
I don’t think it’s OK. But hey, I didn’t vote for that sort of behavior. Maybe you did, if you voted for Biden. But you said you were looking forward to a change of pace. I thought you would appreciate it. You know, as a reminder of your own natural sexism. You should look on it as a privilege to do the hard work to extract that unconscious bigotry out of your personality.
