One, I believe Biden won. Trump's first win was flukish and the pure hatred for the guy since is plenty of motivation for the electoral resuts we see.

Two, Trump has a strong following, this election was strange in its circumstances, and there's enough procedural and statistical oddities to believe something shady happened.

I'm glad he's not conceding until everything is properly examined. Once that's done or the USSC rules then we move on.

This election was a referendum against Trump, not for Biden. The multitudes of ballots only marked for Biden and no one else is testament to how folks like Stacey Abrams was able to marshal the one-time anti-Trump voters. 

Biden's election may prove fortuitous for Republicans. The far left want a piece of Biden's election. If he gives it to them the rift in the party will grow wider and drive more people to either forego voting in the next election, or to the Republicans. If he doesn't we will witness continuous bitter infighting. 

Either way, the MSM will have its work cut out trying to present a unified message for the democrats. Especially after successful midterm elections for Republicans when there will no longer be an anti-Trump referendum to turn out disinterested voters.

I actually agree with you homebiscuit.  And if Biden moves the party left, it will be an opportunity for Republicans in 2024, depending on what the Republican party looks like then.  The challenge of the two-party system is that you have to play to the extremists on either side to win the nomination, then transform into a centrist to win the swing voters in the presidential election.  Trump was more extreme than Biden (not necessarily in ideology, but in lack of character) this election and had no appeal of moderation whatsoever, and he lost.  I think the country is fatigued from the extremists on both sides, and both parties will be better served with more moderate approaches in the future.

Public shame from an Obama appointed judge in a notoriously corrupt city. Oh, the shame!

You are scared of this getting to the big boy court with Trump appointed judges.

Ding, fries are done.

A lifelong REPUBLICAN judge.  Think it through before you type, Old Man Stroud.

I'd love it to get to the SCOTUS... bigger stage for the public SHAME! Unfortunately, it will never get to that level.
