Republican snowflake tears for the next 4 years.. sore losers! 😂

“wE diDn’T loSe!!!! iT wAS STolEn!!!!”

No, those are Trumper tears. Most Repubicans/Conservatives are like Mike Pence who are unhappy that Ds won, but that’s about it.  You move on. 
 

The use of mail-in ballots needs to be restricted to a needs-basis so we don’t run into this again, though. If Trumpers really believe that fraudulent mail-in ballots brought this about, the old “if you can’t beat them, join ‘em” phrase will come into play. At the end of the day, our entire system is based upon our vote counting.  Once enough people decide that voting is futile, the entire thing collapses. Ds need to admit that the mail-in process is flawed and rife with the possibility for fraud and work with Rs to restrict its use. You can’t just drop millions of ballots in the mail and have them returned and counted without any checks/verifications. There was fraud. But how widespread isn’t clear at all and there’s no way to prove it with the mail-in system available in some states. 
But those are the rules this cycle and as much as winning the election while losing the popular vote feels a little shady, so does winning with a stack of unverified mail-in ballots.

      Starting pitching has been shaky the last few weeks due to some injuries outside of Hagen Smith.  He goes tomorrow, so y’all should be fine

      West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin leaves Democratic Party, registers as independent

      By tvc184 · Posted

      Manchin may get it but any mention of the radical left that wanted to get rid of the filibuster and end almost 220 years of history because the Democrats are mad?  The House and Senate are obviously different legislative bodies with entirely different election processes and rules for a reason. The House can vote on laws with a simple majority vote. The Senate put rules in place that it would make it much tougher to pass laws. Laws should be difficult to pass. The Senate is often the holdup of the right and left. It takes 60 votes to break the filibuster so any law will almost certainly require agreement at least in part, from opposing sides of an issue. Because they can’t get laws passed, the radical left is like a baby having a tantrum and wants to change over 200 years of history and make it potentially ridiculously easy to pass laws. I have seen current poll maps and it is possible for the Republicans to sweep into complete power in November but by the tiniest margin. That would possibly mean that a single vote margin in both houses could enact what you might call the radical right laws. There would be nothing that the Democrats could do to stop any legislation whatsoever if the left (they are all radical, minus Manchin) got their filibuster rule changed.  That is where the current filibuster comes into play as any new law would require several Democrats to agree with the majority Republicans and vice versa.  Do you want the potential for your radical right to have free rein as the radical left wants by killing the filibuster or is the radical left just as (if not more) dangerous? Let’s see if we have a history in this area? Oh yeah, the Democrats changed the rules in the Senate to allow federal judges to not have to overcome the filibuster. Obama was not getting his federal judge nominations passed and being angry, they changed the rules instead of nominating more moderate justices. They were warned that it would come back to bite them. They didn’t care and chose the nuclear option to change the rules. Oops! Any guess how Trump got all of his Supreme Court nominees passed against strong Democrat opposition? The Democrats got rid of the filibuster for federal judges after another tantrum   So when you are so worried about the radical right, are you equally concerned in what the radical left is always doing by changing rules and history which were put into place just for situations like we are in? So while Manchin gets it, what about his other 50 colleagues (49 + Harris)?  What concerns you more, Abbott and Paxton or the Democrats who want to make it to where if the Republicans do take over, they can go wild… at least in your mind?

      MODS please remove that ISD twitter link! I had no idea it would copy the whole posting. I only highlighted the portion about the venue change. Sorry about that!
