Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

[Thepersona]

The biggest red pill is that both Trump and Biden are good dudes who want to do good for the country but both of their supporter bases are completely vile

A) Redpill culture is fucking cancer. And its extremely ironic, being born from a movie with clear "coming out of the closet" undertones, made by 2 trans people.

B) No. Dotardito Tangerini is a fucking evil human being, apart from having a textbook narcissistic personality disorder.

Trump a good dude? Is that why world leaders have to call Biden personally, due to Trump’s refusal to let transition begin?

The only red pill I see, is convincing people that Trump was ever a decent human being.

Is it going to be an awkward Thanksgiving for the Romney family?
The official position of the Republican party, as put forward by Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel, is that Joe Biden and the Democrats stole the election:
On Tuesday night, Ronna McDaniel, Chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC), told FOX News commentator Sean Hannity that she has 234 pages containing 500 sworn affidavits alleging 11,000 incidents of various types of voter fraud.

Briefly listing the allegations on Hannity’s show, McDaniel said that a person in Wayne County, Michigan alleged that 60 percent of a batch of voter ballots had the same signature on them, that another affidavit claimed to have seen 35 ballots counted despite not being cast by registered voters, that 50 ballots were counted multiple times in a tabulation machine elsewhere, that one woman’s dead son somehow voted in one election and that Democrats handed out documents on how to distract Republican vote challengers.

“It’s been rigged from the beginning,” McDaniel told Hannity, “rigged from the laws that were being passed in the name of COVID to create a porous election, rigged in the sense that they kicked Republicans out of poll watching and observing… and now you have a media that’s rigging it again by saying we’re not going to even listen to these stories.”

[Felya]

Your president called for national unification and all the Dem supporters took that as a cue to continue attacking Trump supporters, ensuring that there will never be peace between the right and the left. Your true colors are becoming very apparent now. It was never about electing Biden to enact better policies than Trump. It was just because you were salty and wanted to be all smug and snarky that you beat Trump.

Who exactly is ‘your president’? Because Trump sure as hell is not saying this... yet, we have to pretend that Trump is like Biden? Bullshit... earn it...

Good thing we still have those ballots and this could easily be corroborated.

I love that Hannity didn't ask, "Why haven't you shown this all to a judge yet?"

[Kaleredar]

I love that Hannity didn't ask, "Why haven't you shown this all to a judge yet?"

Because if they showed it to a judge and claimed it was the truth, they could get their asses thrown in jail when it’s resolutely found to be false.

- - - Updated - - -

So with Trump still refusing to concede, and with Secretary of State Mike Pompeo saying, “There will be a smooth transition to a second Trump administration”, what exactly will happen if Trump really does refuse to leave office on Jan 20th?

I also read this today: “his general services administrator has refused to give Biden’s team access to transition offices and resources guaranteed under law; and the White House is preparing a budget for next year as if Trump will be around to present it.”

They get their asses tossed out into the street by White House security.

Oh I know, just pointing out how Hannity and his viewers appear to not have a critical thinking bone in their bodies.

[Corvus]

So Guiliana says they are suing to get hundred of thousands of votes tossed out in Michigan. Hundreds of thousands. This is getting rediculous.

[Belize]

Would they really do that, though? I feel like Trump is trying to like, hold up the White House, and is gathering followers to help him.

I'm not worried about the Secret Services being able to handle the obese elderly idiots inside the WH, and I'm not worried about the National Guard being able to handle any Trumpkin delusional enough to try and show up and defend dear leader.

[kaid]

It’s like a dictatorship is happening. Idk how any American would support this.

The gop is totally fine with a dictator ship as long as their guy is the dictator.

[Fahrenheit]

How many straws can one man grasp at?

I mean, he almost has a point with the first part, minus any illegality to the poll. I want to know how a quality polling outfit the WaPo had a 16 point difference (+17 Biden, to +1 Biden in actuality) in a state just days before the election. Were like 40% of Trump supporters like flat out lying?

The difference between Fox News negatively covering Hillary's challenges and dismissing issues of widespread voter fraud in 2016...and then saying 100% the opposite thing when it comes to this election.

I know I know, "Fox hosts hypocrisy is pretty expected.", but just pointing it out anyways.

[Eviscero]

I love that Hannity didn't ask, "Why haven't you shown this all to a judge yet?"

Hannity is a plague. He literally says "We haven't verified these claims, but I'll let you the viewer decide for yourself..." and then shows YouTube clips from Project Veritas with a completely blurred out person, their voice masked saying "I saw so much fraud, I mean TONS of fraud (vaguely defined)!"

These people are fucking cosplaying an election scandal and Fox News has the audacity to broadcast it as if it's fact? Nothing will come of this, except a bunch of low-IQ Trump supporters will once again be tricked into donating to a fake cause to help Trump cover his debts. Quit being such easy marks for these grifters.

This time around, most people have tuned Carlson, Hannity & Ingraham out. Because they're just beyond stupid. Same for the Federalist.

arent they all going to that OAN shit and epoch times now?

they are all at different points in the process, the danger is if alot of the gop fanbois get to 8. obviously the qanon branch are there already.

1Milieu Control. This involves the control of information and communication both within the environment and, ultimately, within the individual, resulting in a significant degree of isolation from society at large.

2Mystical Manipulation. The manipulation of experiences that appears spontaneous but is, in fact, planned and orchestrated by the group or its leaders in order to demonstrate divine authority, spiritual advancement, or some exceptional talent or insight that sets the leader and/or group apart from humanity, and that allows reinterpretation of historical events, scripture, and other experiences. Coincidences and happenstance oddities are interpreted as omens or prophecies.

3Demand for Purity. The world is viewed as black and white and the members are constantly exhorted to conform to the ideology of the group and strive for perfection. The induction of guilt and/or shame is a powerful control device used here.

4Confession. Sins, as defined by the group, are to be confessed either to a personal monitor or publicly to the group. There is no confidentiality; members' "sins," "attitudes," and "faults" are discussed and exploited by the leaders.

5Sacred Science. The group's doctrine or ideology is considered to be the ultimate Truth, beyond all questioning or dispute. Truth is not to be found outside the group. The leader, as the spokesperson for God or for all humanity, is likewise above criticism.

6Loading the Language. The group interprets or uses words and phrases in new ways so that often the outside world does not understand. This jargon consists of thought-terminating clichés, which serve to alter members' thought processes to conform to the group's way of thinking.

7Doctrine over person. Members' personal experiences are subordinated to the sacred science and any contrary experiences must be denied or reinterpreted to fit the ideology of the group.

8Dispensing of existence. The group has the prerogative to decide who has the right to exist and who does not. This is usually not literal but means that those in the outside world are not saved, unenlightened, unconscious and they must be converted to the group's ideology. If they do not join the group or are critical of the group, then they must be rejected by the members. Thus, the outside world loses all credibility. In conjunction, should any member leave the group, he or she must be rejected also

Maybe I’m not paying too much attention to the finer details, but I think this is all about sucking money out of people with more dollars than sense. Once the states do their formal vote certification I expect this to be over.

Trump appeals a lot to what I see called political arsonists: they just want to burn our entire political system to the ground for a variety of reasons. This stuff is red meat to them, but as there has been so little post election violence I expect this to magically fizzle out at the last second once the opportunities to make $$ off it are done.

[Egomaniac]

That would be a very bad idea. Refusing to surrender the White House to the lawfully elected President of the United States could very easily be seen as an act of Domestic Terrorism.


Reminds me of Robocop

First, don't fuck with me, I'm a desperate man
and second, I want some fresh coffee
and third I want a recount
and no matter how it turns out I want my old job back

I guess in Trump's case he would want some fresh covfefe

it depends on who the coercive forces of the state will obey.

[Breccia]

what exactly will happen if Trump really does refuse to leave office on Jan 20th?

If the House finalizes the results we've seen, Trump is trespassing. He will be evicted.

Trump won't do that. Once the official results are tallied and if they match what we've seen, he'll resign, claim he did this so Pence can pardon him not because he's guilty but because he's trolling them, and leave to massive applause from the rabid fanbase.
