Treating different ages differently is the definition af ageism too, mich like treating different sexes differently is the definition of sexism.
This isn't over.

Michigan lawmaker who met with Trump pushes 'constitutional crisis' to overturn election on Fox News
Michigan House Speaker Lee Chatfield (R) on Sunday explained how a constitutional crisis could mean a win for President Donald Trump despite losing the popular vote in his state.In an interview with Fox News host Pete Hegseth, Chatfield defended his recent meeting with Trump. Prior to the...www.rawstory.com
Then why didn't he meet with the incoming honorable Joe Biden instead of the outgoing charlatan Donald Trump who was clearly voted out.
it's the Rosebud of Petulance, isn't it?
he's not there, nor has he been recipient of, therefore it doesn't even cross his mind.

It's a lot more complicated than that, there's conditioning involved and it operates on a deep subconscious level, we believe the world should be a certain way and of our place in the social order. Often it comes out as an irrational aversion to "socialism", pathological in that it makes no sense for them and they fuck themselves and others too.
This is a struggle for liberal democracy though, not an economic ideological battle, though the two are intimately linked. Almost half the country does not want to form a sharing natural community and are resisting, in spite of it harming them the most, that's why I call it pathological. It is driven by a rightwing billionaire funded disinformation network for their own nefarious purposes and it's been around for awhile, but since Trump they went far over the line and this is the result. The republicans are not alone in running through the gates of Hell, these clowns followed him and it will mean their end.

It could be simplified even further by not putting dog catchers, sheriffs, prosecutors and judges on the ballot, a hold over from the resistance to reconstruction.

I’m guessing you haven’t spent much time in Georgia: the GOP is not ‘imploding’, the fuck-you extremists are in essence calling the Klan out to hit the streets and join them...and while they might be belligerent-but-cowardly as individuals, they have a scorched-earth, kill-them-all group ‘personality’. What’s happening there is DANGEROUS, and not only for the people of Atlanta: there have been a number of lone wolves who have tried to kick off the race war by solo action, but they have failed to trigger the dreamed-of uprising *because* they’ve been solo actions (IMO). Bullies only rise when they *KNOW* they can win; massacres aren’t pitched battles between armed camps, they’re manifestations of overwhelming force brought against those unprepared to resist overwhelming force...much less defeat it.
I repeat: what’s going on in Atlanta is DANGEROUS. It’s dangerous because *both* sides of the racial divide have had enough over the last four years, and an armed clash between them, in full view of the world, could be the new Sumter, the new Concord. It could get out of hand almost immediately.
What’s happening in Atlanta is not solo action. It’s a call to arms. It should be taken very fucking seriously indeed.

Fair enough, I guess you did correctly define the 'isms'.
Do you think that you fall into the false narratives that the people pushing the propaganda hope that you do about any of the 'isms'?

Some have a different attitude, it shows in the polls.

It might get messy, but Joe will be POTUS and there will be a reckoning, sedition is serious business. Votes count in a democracy, not whining assholes in the street, it will get as serious as they want to make it, will you allow them to steal your vote and rights? I wouldn't for a fucking second, Trump has to overturn clear majorities in the popular vote across multiple states and Donald can't plan or build coalitions, he can only bully and threaten. These violent people have no plan or organization, they can only make death threats on the phone and march in the streets, like the other side used to.
From what I've been hearing this shit is hurting the republican senate hopes in Georgia, there could be violence during the runoff voting and counting. Donald's problem and the republicans too, is all Donald's threats in the past couple of years and the Russian threat have caused every county in America to clean up and tighten up their voting systems, making fraud and mistakes more rare. None of these election officials wants to be on TV, talking to the FBI, or in front of congress

The budgie repeats what it hears without understanding a word.
really interesting that Biden is naming cabinet next week unlike what he said that they won't be named until after Inauguration.
i wonder why he changed his mind?
i'm already hearing Joe Scarborough declare 'get ready for centrist and progs don't freak out just live with it'..'for the benefit of America'.
my palms are already getting sweaty and am ready for double dose of xanax..they better not pull shit..

So far the system has held. Trump simply has no evidence and the races weren't close enough to make the case for reversing it credible.
There is risk, though. Trump's strategy could have worked if the election in four states were closer. All because the electoral college enables the wannabe dictator to divide and conquer. If anybody wants to defend the existence of the anti-democratic electoral college, they are welcome to try.

There are about 15 of them that said things like, 'he looks to be' rather than saying he is the president elect. The scary thing is that right now Trump is fighting to control the Republican Party. That is part of the reason there are few Republicans outwardly speaking of the election other than saying Trump has a right to contest things.

Republican makeup.

The 3-way fight among Republicans runs deeper than Trump and will outlast him

True but I also fear those morons could be called upon with a “tweet” to create a scenario that you and everyone else will truly regret. Do I think it will happen? I’ve been surprised a lot recently, and not like a surprise party surprise
. And for all of its issues (ya not really sunny much lol) I’m quite relieved to be just north of the border even though I hate fucking snow .

After all this shit, when the military vote comes in the run off election it will be more than 4 to 1 for Biden next time.

It’s not the follower of laws, IMO, you should be worried about right now. The GOP has lost their collective minds at this point. The more they stay silent about this bullshit the more validity they add to the lie. The fuckwads are thinking they are saving the US from hell and “Their” president is not saying different. He’s defcon 3 away from starting a very dangerous situation.

They are depending on the courts to take care of Donald, of course they will be outraged blah, blah. Donald will be gone or on his way by February with a court order gag in his gob during pretrial and trial, he will violate it and will be jailed until sentenced. It won't take long for individual #1 to go down, it's a slam dunk documents case with tons of witnesses and no defense, he will be in jail and delay won't help much, appeal from prison like everybody else. Donald is looking at a decade in that case alone according to sentencing guidelines. That should tie him down while they take their time with the mountain of other shit the special independent counsel will find. The lawsuits and seizing his assets for tax evasion, fraud and money laundering along with the law suits will come too, while he and his kids are in prison..
sitting on the fence like a bunch of magpies just waiting to see 'which way this will go'..it already went and they will be remembered in the future- all 15 of them..great thing is you don't have to live in their state to cause unrest for their poor decisions.
Baby Donald is holding out for his combination Fed/State/Local 'Get Out of Jail Free Card'..that he's not getting. He will pull out all the stops over the next 59 days for this. He will stop at nothing.
This is called extortion.
