The Trump implosion thread!

Great news.

Everyone knows his strategy will be to claim victory before all the votes are counted. And then try desperately to get them to STOP COUNTING.

Doesn't each state have individual leeway as to how to count their votes? And when to 'certify' them? Adding additional votes that need to be hand counted certainly won't be good for certainty when 'declaring' a winner.

I'm sure it will be a reason for the Democrats to riot and loot, regardless of whether they win or lose.....

Since when have they needed a reason?

I see links to videos about people protesting or rioting or whatever they're doing, usually at night. And it's been going on so long, I don't click on them, I don't know if they are protesting about something in particular or like you said, no reason, just breaking and burning things because no one stops them? Makes me think they didn't have good parents.

What I do "click"on is articles like this, https://wolfstreet.com/2020/09/10/unemployment-crisis-going-in-wrong-direction-week-25-of-u-s-labor-market-collapse/
apparently we have millions and millions of people out of work. I continue to realize how good my dad's approach to idle hands was.

If these "protesters" were working ten hour days, actually working, they wouldn't be breaking things at night. Afaic we can restart the WPA or the CCC programs and get people fixing national parks, or painting bridges. Being off work for so long is messing up peoples minds. Paying people to protest is stupid.

I think Mike Rowe had this kind of reasoning as to why you do not see protests at trade schools like at universities.

President Donald Trump bragged that he protected Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman after the assassination and dismembering of the Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi in October 2018.

​

"I saved his ass," Trump had said amid the US outcry over Khashoggi's killing, according to Bob Woodward's new book. "I was able to get Congress to leave him alone. I was able to get them to stop."

​

The president told Woodward he didn't believe that MBS ordered Khashoggi's murder, though the US and other foreign intelligence services concluded that he did order the attack.

​

After Khashoggi's murder, Trump bypassed Congress to sell roughly $8 billion in arms to the Saudis and the United Arab Emirates. He vetoed a trio of resolutions blocking the sale, as well as a resolution to end US support for the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen.

Good for him! Lots of jobs made by those arms sales and let the Saudi deal with Arab-Arab wars that do not concern us.

Wonder if Duffman would be singing the same tune if a President Biden let some foreign prince get away with hacking up Sean Hannity into itty bitty pieces.

There’s virtually little difference between the Saudi Prince and Trump.

One murdered and the other made sure he got away with it.

How far can you possibly be up one mans ass?
