    Blah blah blah. Go cry to a moderator and report it, wouldn't be the first, fifth or last time you have, big baby.

    Someone asked the guy for his personal opinion, he replied and you upchcucked your normal dribble and insults.

    Exactly. He's been dealing in his typical childish, uninformed rhetoric from the start. It's fine though, because the most important fact is we've learned that our Democracy worked as designed, and it's even Trump proof. :usa:

    I stay out of this thread for a very good reason, but I’ll chime in here Bob.

    I’ve not been a moderator very long but for the record every reported post I’ve dealt with on this thread has come from someone on the “anti-Trump team” in this thread.

    Sota it’s my opinion some take the vent forum a little to serious and personal. I enjoy reading different views of members who opinions I value, those I don’t I ignore.

    It’s okay to post an opposing view.

    Thank you .. he knows who he is .... and also I never disparaged a persons families lineage, talked trash about ones state other than about taxes and their legislature, etc. ... using the term 'ignorant', esp.in regard to knowledge of certain facts and the truth just means there is room to learn if they want and have a open mind to learn ... calling a person dumb or stupid usually means that is permanent and no room to learn and change .. using the ignore feature is akin to a cry closet IMO, esp. when one is escaping reality of those facts and truth when called on the floor about them .... When I first came here, OkieBob and a few others attacked me and my families lineage and my state in a very very nasty manor, and I wont tolerate it, now I dont go running to a Mod. and I didnt respond nastily in kind to those attacks, but I did stand up to those individuals .. discussing/arguing politics and religion makes enemies sure, but I also think to do so, one must have some tough skin ... carry on ....

    After this crappy work week I'm out here rewarding myself with some chimichangas at this great Mexican spot. 20 more hrs of work over the next 30 hrs and I'll be done and in the woods.

    I hope this country heals up a bit and we regain our sanity once the needles in arms begins.

    Well well,
    Trump Made the Media Look Like Fools Again

    Regardless of what happens next year in regards to the presidency, one thing is for certain: Donald Trump has thoroughly exposed the news industry for what they are. The once-storied fourth estate has been reduced to peddling Russian conspiracy theories and repeating Democrat talking points verbatim. There isn’t even an attempt at objectivity anymore. To the extent a facade still existed prior to 2016, it no longer exists in 2020.



    Case in point? We can now check the receipts on how the media treated Trump’s claims of a vaccine arriving at the end of the year. You’ll be less than shocked to learn the media were shown to be fools once again.

    Sad part is, the CDC is now saying even after getting vaccinated you must maintain the 6 foot social distancing and continue wearing a mask :lol:

    Only Jan. 20th when Biden is sworn in will things be under control, all hail the new and loving King :lol:

    Oh no things are getting worse and no one is taking note. Blind sheep
    1. Covid shutting down small Business .. Ya ...sure. A few billionaire getting richer and their army of politicians are lining pockets. The banks and these people made their plans a long time ago. World order with China's help.
    a. Covid, no no accident there
    b. now banks forcing small business into a added 4% charge if you use a credit card. Now what do you think that will do....hhhmmm

    They want equity, wealth distribution.....
    What happens when your cities start raisig property taxes 500%? Well you sure as hell can't sell a house, a modest one that has a 20,000 a year tax. Fact, it is happening. You abandon it and move,what happens next? You know, the city seizes it. Seize enough property and you can lower taxes and sell to whom ever you wish. Watch this spread rapidly. Property seizures now where does that sound familsr...Cuba, Venezuela, China. Just think about how fast this has come down. Democratic cities such as Detroit started the property tax rise in 2018, spiking it this year. Our small towns did it with over rated assessments . I've had to hire an appraiser and fight twice. People showed up with lawyers in tow. The 4% just hit us out here. So far only the small guy.
    I said last year Americans will get what they deserve for being sheep. Too bad it's not all Amercans so God bless the ones fighting back.

    The only people that Trump makes to look like a fool is himself and any Sap that is still defending him at this point.

    I loved the way he turned on his own SCOUS appointments, but after all he turns on everyone but himself. Witness all the indictments of anyone close to him. Too bad they learned there lesson to late.


    https://apnews.com/article/election...ts-elections-b5d3cd1700b0fe9282707e571ec7c076




    WASHINGTON (AP) — It didn't take the Supreme Court long to make short work of what President Donald Trump called “the big one.”
    And as the court on Friday rejected a Texas-based lawsuit to overturn the election results, not even Trump's three high court appointees were willing to rise to the defense of the president. Trump has been clinging to baseless claims of fraud in the hope of reversing election results that made Democrat Joe Biden the next president and deprived Trump of four more years in the White House.

    For all Trump's predictions that the court and his justices would make things right, he and his supporters were lacking one basic element: a strong legal argument that might plausibly attract some sympathy on a court now dominated by conservative justices.
    A Republican senator, Nebraska's Ben Sasse, delivered a stinging summary of the court's rebuke to Trump and his allies. Sasse said "every American who cares about the rule of law should take comfort that the Supreme Court — including all three of President Trump’s picks — closed the book on the nonsense.” Sasse, a potential 2024 presidential candidate, has been one of the few Republicans willing to criticize Trump.

    That's funny! lol Do you even know who the Proud Boys really are? I doubt it, because you're so filled with BS. I watched an interview with an X Proud Boy who was asked what the real agenda was for this group? He said the group was initially formed to counter Antifa, but he said as time went on they were collecting nothing but the misfits of society. Young guys who don't do well with women (loners), often have criminal/violent backgrounds, poorly educated, and otherwise looking to physically hurt people and be able to justify it.
    This guy said it was getting so far out of hand that even he didn't want to be a part of it anymore. So there's that.

    It occurred to me what the problem is, media devises. Humans are so engrossed in their viewing of one dimensional ,flat screened info on devises, they've lost the ability to view the worlds in put with any depth what so ever.
