Nope. I don't think there is such a thing as an honest politician.First.Aspect said:
Yes, but interestingly they cooperated okay while the supreme court decided on a specific issue in one state, relevant to a few hundred votes.swjohnsey said:
In other words, Algore refused to concede the election. Well, he actually did concede and then retracted the concession.First.Aspect said:
He is at least 10 times as far behind in four times as many states. He lost the popular vote by at least 3% (rather than less than 0.5%). It is an absurd comparison and you well know it.swjohnsey said:
Coulda fooled me.kingstongraham said:
That was close though. This isn't.swjohnsey said:Remember, Algore conceded after six weeks!
H. Clinton won/lost by a much narrower margin.
You are going to tell us that Nixon was an honest guy caught in a sting contrived by Borat, next.0 -
That's how they get you.
They tell you no-one is honest and they're all corrupt so when they do it you turn a blind eye.

It is a question of degrees. "Alternative facts" is straight from the USSR communist play book. Deny deny deny. History will not be kind on this period of US politics.swjohnsey said:

Tulsi Gabbard comes across as a polician with conviction in what I have seen of her, regardless of her policies.
Plus Hillary hates her, so must have something about her.1 -
Politician with conviction - you mean like Chris Huhne?1985 Mercian King of Mercia - work in progress (Hah! Who am I kidding?)

Joe Biden received 5.08m more of the popular vote than Trump. 4.9m of these votes were from California.
An illustration of how divided the rest of the US is.1 -

No divisions then Pango?
Obviously an easy job for Joe to unite the country and get everyone behind him.
A 200,000 margin across 49 states would tend to suggest division, but hey ho.1 -
Yehbut you make it sound like California had a clear win, and the rest were all on a razor. Biden got around twice as many votes as Trump in California. There are plenty of other states that got around twice as many votes for one candidate or the other. It's just that once you total up the whole country, the difference happens to be similar to the margin in California.
It's not a 200k margin across 49 states, it's a 5 million margin across 50 states, there is a big difference.- Genesis Croix de Fer

It is pretty shocking. But you can see why there is such opposition to much in the way of federal government - one way or another it doesn't represent half the country. Seems to be just as bad a divide between the urban dwellers and the country bumkins even within each state.ballysmate said:No divisions then Pango?

To me it shows how weird it is to have one California and two Dakotas.0

That just depends on how deep you look. There will be divisions in every city. Heck, there might even be divisions in a family. What does matter is how those divisions are united.First.Aspect said:

I can see why y'all like Biden. As a senator he teamed up the Byrd (KKK) to block busing for school desegregation. He supported banning gays in the military by supporting "Don't ask, don't tell and was against gay marriage by supporting the Defense of marriage act which defined marriage as one man and one woman.
I'm sure he's woke, now.2 -
I am pointing out the hypocrisy of remoaners that none of them are bringing up the excuses they have used since 2016. Sunlight is the best form of disinfectant.kingstongraham said:

I have always advocated accepting democratic votes and losers consent, and that is what I believe should happen with this result. Your response just shows you are still sucking on lemons daily, rather than calling out remoaners and their disgusting attitude to democracy over the last 4.5 years.0 -
The wokarati have excellent coping mechanisms. They ignore that which is not in favour.swjohnsey said:I can see why y'all like Biden.

Indeed, as is the democratic way Republicans will accept this result as a permanent arrangement and make no attempt to oppose or in any way mitigate the incoming President's agenda.coopster_the_1st said:Biden 52% - Trump 48%

Clearly an overwhelming mandate for defunding the police, despite Biden saying that wasn't what he was going to do.tailwindhome said:
