Face it, Reynie ... your boy lost, fair and square, and anything you claim to the contrary is a lie.

Geez Redd Relax. You guys have been doing the Russian conspiracy Fantasy for 4 Years. The election was blatantly stolen. The Democrats didn't even try to cover it up. The false flag riot and theatric impeachment was just the Democrats doing what they love most: Revenge.

Looks like we found another Trump supporter here. Let's see more I can spot here. Play ISpy, who ever can spot the most wins and the prize is bragging about how many you found. Go.

Four. One is obvious (we both spotted him), one is not so obvious, and the other two seem to want us to believe they have quietly switched sides in the past few months.

Not sure if joking or delusional..

I will take "Loss of Sync" for a thousand, Alex.

Demonrats iz eating baby hormones & praising Satan!! !! Zomg, murder police at the Capitol to stop this!! !

f*****g looney toons batshit crazy stuff wtf?

Fnord is in the lead so far.

I may have to disqualify myself, because for years I have been tracking the posts of some of the more "out there" personalities, just so that I do not inadvertently seem to support whatever off-the-wall philosophies they may express.

Again, you are blinded by your own inherent bias. Trump's actions over the last 4 years have been all about revenge against Obama, who he clearly has a personal vendetta against. That's become very obvious in the last month or so with the Presidential pardons and the sale of oil rights in Alaska. It's all about hurting future Democrat chances, no matter what the cost. Small people are just inconsequential in all that. Trump has constantly claimed to be a hero for the working classes while selling them out to the rich. I ask you again, what's better about Trump actually delivering his policies, compared to Biden? Even if we assume for a moment they're both largely in the pockets of big business, who does the most for median America despite those vested interests?

You seem very keen to throw assumptions around. Who do you mean by "you guys", for starters? That's a classic bit of popularist absolutism btw, if you're not with the authoritarian programme you're automatically against it, and thus against The People and The Nation. Errr, no. I'm not a Democrat or a Republican, despite your pigeon-holing, but I am interested in which option does the least damage. And that isn't Trump. I am pro- ordinary people, and anti- extremism, because it never ends well. History is on my side there. By definition that means I'm also against scare-mongering, lying, petulant, dangerous, narcissistic orange toddlers willing to follow a deranged personal agenda by gambling with the lives of a whole nation.

Trump is a self-obsessed void with a penchant for trophy wives, porn stars and tasteless status symbols, and also a failed businessman with a huge mountain of debt. He's been massively successful politically because he gives a green light to similar a**holes all across the U.S. to do exactly the same as he has done. Blame the Mexicans, greed is good, grab 'em by the p****. The guy is a walking advert for shock-jock attention seeking. That makes him a huge security liability, because he's so arrogant he's weak, before we even move onto how he actually acts. Psychopaths and narcissists are at their most dangerous when forced to face up to the reality, they can never be as good as they think they are, and indeed their own delusions and lack of empathy and rational thinking guarantee it. So now we are seeing the post-truth denial meltdown in full effect. He's so scared of his own shadow (or the portrait in the attic) that he'd rather derail the whole democratic process than admit he lost.

Seems you might be suffering from some of that denial, too?

Careful, Redd ... your fact-based posts might be construed by some as "harassment", "oppression", or even "cancel-culture".

It's not acceptable under the site rules, nor acceptable under the guidelines here in PPR. Knock it off, or the thread gets it...

I'm mostly worried for my parents - they were and still are ardent Trump supporters and they're horrified to see that some of the Republicans who they had respect for previously have come out against him or even voted in favor of his impeachment. What I heard them suggest on the phone with other like-minded relatives is that these Republicans in particular probably had deep-state ties.

It's going to be interesting now to see the Republican party have as many divergent tribes and infighting potentially as the Democratic party does.

Does that mean posts in support of those pedalling extreme hate speech are perfectly ok, whereas posts pointing out that those pedalling extreme hate speech are pedalling extreme hate speech, are unacceptable?

We seem to be operating in some form of US politics snow globe, if so.

It's okay to point out extreme hate speech by non-WP-members.
Extreme hate speech by WP-members should always be reported.
It's okay to attack public figures in PPR.
It's not okay to attack another member(s) based on their political alignment.

What's not acceptable are personal attacks. Demolish the idea, not the poster.
I'm pretty sure that shouldn't need to be spelled out - there are no newbies on this thread.
