Biden Calls Trump’s Refusal to Concede an 'Embarrassment' (speech, crime, party)

Here's Trump's low rankings on Wikipedia (4th quartile) across the board for a "non liberal" source...

There were proven irregularities then. Each county had different voting methods, the most notorious one being the punch card that produced uncounted votes. The butterfly ballot was another. Has trumpy come up with ANY?

If you want to have some integrity -- stop the hypocritical baloney.

Trump lost the popular vote in 2016.

Few people seem interested in remembering that fact.

Of course it is an embarrassment. The beacon of democracy that we once were has died out.

The GOP senate coddling Trump has turned us into a laughing stock Banana Republic full of Banana Republicans.

We have a 'leader' who won't obey laws, won't behave like a democratic leader or even an adult, is destroying the Defense Dept and National Security in the hope the new guys will allow him to send military troops to attack Americans. With an unintended consequence of being vulnerable to all kinds of attacks. It can not be more obvious that Trump does not care one iota about the US or Americans.

Putin is laughing. KJU is laughing. Trump has managed to divide us further, weaken our Defense Dept, weaken national security. We've got a budding dictator that has been voted out who refuses to leave. He thinks we are the USSR. So much for democracy. We'll come back after Trump is gone, which cannot happen soon enough.

Neither Bush nor Gore had enough votes to claim victory until Florida was counted, and so, of course, neither did.

Because they're both normal.

His people were claiming victory.

It is an embarrassment. And sadly his minions like Barr, McConnell and Graham are playing along.

He's baiting him because once he concedes it's over. If I were Biden I'd welcome appeals, recounts, investigations etc to validate 'the win'.

I heard trump say it when he was justifying rushing his hand picked choice to the supreme court. It was on the news.

1) A postal worker has sworn under oath that his supervisor instructed him to back-date ballots that otherwise wouldn’t qualify. How often did this happen in the various swing states?

2) Did Pennsylvania encourage/instruct volunteers to “cure” ballots in Democrat-heavy areas to ensure they counted but take an “oh well” attitude toward ballots in Republican-leaning areas, as has been claimed?

3) One computer program assigned 6000 Trump votes to Biden, meaning a swing of 12,000. Since the same program was used in 30 states, did it occur elsewhere?

4) The entire mail-in scheme, blanketing entire states with unsolicited ballots, ended up with some people receiving duplicates, even as many as 8. Other people reported that when they got to the polls, their mail-in ballot had already been voted by someone else. Just how out-of-control was the mail ballot scheme?

5) In one area, where only 1,000 Trump ballots were “president only” ballots, fully 95,000 Biden ballots were “president only” ballots. This is quite an anomaly and should be explored.

6) Over 130,000 ballots arrived after midnight in a state where Trump was ahead by a significant margin. All 130,000 went for Biden. This is a statistical impossibility,

7) Were Republican poll watchers relegated to the corner, with binoculars?

So, let’s explore these. The integrity of the election process is at stake, and at a minimum can tell us that we are unable to conduct a fair election with majority mail-in and/or the computer program used is woefully antiquated and unreliable.

All good, reasonable points. Of course it was ignored by the left. These things need to be found out if those on the right who feel no confidence in the election results are to believe it was legitimate. Illegitimate election equals illegitimate president.

You can say that with a straight face after listening to Trump speak for that past 4 years????
