Chris. MAGA represents thuggery. This won’t end well for anyone. The 32% of voting Americans who voted for Trump are on one side, Everyone else is on the other.

These are good points well worth repeating every day. Trump had no mandate; he won with the 5th smallest margin in the last 100 years. He won with less than 50% of the total vote. If PA MI WI had shifted like 120K votes the other way, we'd have a Dem POTUS. And what that group voted for, namely lower prices on eggs and gas, they ain't a-gonna get!

Yep. This. Trump is already very unpopular. If he keeps hurting his own base, as he is right now, by fleecing them with bogus crypto schemes, they will turn on him too. It’s just a matter of time before it all goes boom.

Pop goes the weasel.

You got that right. There aren't that many billionaires in this country.

No, but there are lots and lots of blue collar folks who hate Progressives.

Or I could say the 30% of voting Americans are on the side of Harris/Dems and everyone else is on the other. Fun with numbers, make up your own facts! Yay!

Even more people voted for someone other than Harris.

Yes, and she is not claiming a mandate or that the whole country agrees with her unlike the other guy

The other guy claims all kinds of silly things. He's always done that. Try not to let it bother you.

I would not call all his lies 'silly.'

And everyone should be bothered by what he has done in just 2 1/2 days. From refusing entry to well vetted Afghan refugees all of whom assisted the US military in Afghanistan, and were already approved and scheduled to arrive here, to stopping all measures to track infectious diseases like bird flu which most experts are worried it will shortly become a pandemic, to claiming to be for law and order then releasing from prisons dozens of people convicted of assaulting police officers! Give me a break.

King, that doesn't make any sense. You assume that everyone who didn't vote is on your side? By the same "reasoning," the 31% who voted for Harris are on one side and everyone else is on the other. C'mon, man.

And next time, they’ll vote as if their lives depended on it.
