1/10th?
Somewhat hard to believe, since Russia, with 411 deaths/million ranks # 56 out of 270 nations in terms of death/million.
The "World's average" is 242.6 deaths/million and sits between # 74 Denmark and #75 French Guiana.

Because everything in our country is perfect until one person was elected. And all our problems will go away on 1-20-2021.

We'll go back to starting unfathomable wars across the globe, flooding our nation with millions more illegals to take our jobs and run up our treasury bill and increasing the opioid crisis like we're supposed to.
Simple.

I don't believe that. Biden isn't the best choice, and I'm not a fan. But compared to the other option, it was vote Biden or don't vote at all. And the latter would have doomed us to four+ more years of authoritarian wannabe.

We have a long road out of where we are now... And Trump isn't the reason. He's the symptom. But he's the malignant part of the cancer that is inciting the violence today.

I respect your conservative views, and your right to have them. I can not respect you if you continue to support Trump, especially after today. This is on him and anyone who still endorses his behavior and everything that has led up to today over the last several years.

Been trying to convey that to the person closest to me but she just believes whatever the mass media dishes, without question.

Trump is an A-hole. A self centered A-hole. He's wholly ineffective as a President, having been out-flanked at every turn by the Deep State. He's a troll who used that and the abused majority to get elected. And if you were able to see it, he made all of DC politicians look like the fools they are.

It won't be fixed. It will just keep breaking worse.

This is NOT on him. Keep telling the people they don't count and, well....they're just going to keep telling the people they don't count and pushing them down. It will end in tears. The violence was on the streets all Summer by BLM and Antifa. That's Biden and Chlamydia's base of support.

You have had four years to spew your right-wing vitriol... It's time to sit down, shut up, and let the adults do their jobs to put our country back together.



Funny stuff son. You don't get to decide who thinks what.

He doesn't realize how similar he makes himself look to Trump with that statement. Ego-centric.

Let's take your statement here and apply it to BLM... Antifa is not a real organization, and the fact that you keep acting like it is really shows how tightly the right has you by the nuts. Additionally, the fact that you can't refer to Vice President Elect Kamala Harris by her actual real name, and have to resort to using derogatory terms... Well, that shows me the character you have.

You very quickly say that violence on the streets all summer was by BLM... But, you also state "Keep telling people they don't count..." What do you think BLM is pushing back against? You decry BLMs protests, but in the same group of sentences justify today's violence. I am a BLM supporter. I lost people I love due to police on black violence. I have no tolerance for bigotry anymore. I'm serious enough about it that I have sat time for actions that I took in defense of others, and I own that record proudly. That's how strongly I feel about this.

Don't decry actions that occurred because of a reason, then justify other actions that occurred by using the same reason just because it is a different group that you happen to agree with.

Go ahead and convince yourselves that things are peachy. Did you just catch what Graham said on the floor? Or the resounding rejection of reviewing Arizona's electoral vote that just occurred? We don't have to decide history, it's already plain as DAY to some of us that the sky is dark and I do not say that with any smug impression. It is reprehensible that we hit this point. You are Americans and you have a choice to decide what side of the sand you're standing on, but be cognizant of this while you continue to watch how things play out.

Those cozy with this will forever be damned to the throes of American history. We will never be the same. That is terribly sad.

Then you need to own everything your movement has done and don't rationalize it away.

Trump is an A-hole. Kamala is a fake. At least Trump can be who he is, unlike Biden and every other phony in DC.
Proved you wrong yet again. You're confirming that you're a narcissist by trying to tell someone who they are and what they believe. It's the typical boring failure of most people.
Your character has many flaws in it so I'll borrow your tactics and give some back to you.

Antifa IDs as Antifa, so clearly they're an organization with specif beliefs. Even if not an LLC or non-profit. They and BLM burned cities, attacked people for not cowering to them, attacked people FOR cowering to them, murdered people they didn't agree with who had done nothing violent to them other than stand for their own beliefs. They attacked authorities at the White House and State buildings across America. They burned libraries and looted private businesses because sneakers.

In Dallas 2016 one BLM shooter murdered people screaming he hates people for skin color.
BLM hass a domestic terrorist bent to it. Same with Antifa. Tearing down statues because of skin color.

Guess who is tired of giving and giving and giving and it's still not good enough?

George dying is a sad story. Truly. I hate it happened to him, but he died of a drug overdose. The cop was following the police manual for someone in "excited delirium". He asked to be let out of the truck and they did. It's printed in their manual that you put the person on their stomach and restrain them with your knee. The cop did what his job says to do. He wasn't rogue. Might be an ass, but he was following procedure. He'll probably be cleared but the violent mod will demand he be scape-goated.

People are sick of watching people put themselves in ridiculous situations where they end up pushing an outcome that works against them then the SJWs pretend the person had no responsibility in the event. You can believe the bunk propaganda, but some of us won't ignore the reality.

And Trump didn't do it. He's a symptom. Which is why I told you nothing will be fixed. It'll continue to break worse.

Did you not see my post lat half hour saying what I think of Graham and Mitch as Republicans? You can't understand what I'm saying because it doesn't fit your cable new box. When you turn that off you'll get a real grasp of the electorate and it's facets.
