GDT: 11/3/20, Election Day, Donald J. Trump vs. Joseph R. Biden

[chop2chip]

I really do think the 25th amendment is invoked and Trump is removed before the end of the week.

[nsacpi]

You've been cheerleading the side that excused the BLM riots for months. That side did and said as much to start and to stop those as Trump did this, and their cause was no more honest. Lots of malleable Americans these days.

my "side" nominated an adult and normal human being

[CrimsonCowboy]

Keep in mind that the conservative point of view is essential in moderating government.

Trumpism is NOT conservatism.

I do agree here.

[cajunrevenge]

I endorse this message, despite the inevitable arguless fraud accusation it will spark from goldy. A consistent set of principles is essential for progress

Amon Bundy says hello. Member that time him and some conservatives did an armed occupation of government buildings? Maybe you can show me video of police storming it and arresting them.

[striker42]

I do agree here.

Same.

And this guy comparing protests over real deaths of unarmed humans to protests over lies spread by an egomaniac as if they are in any way equal.

Everyone, take a minute to read about the false equivalency logical fallacy. This is a great example of someone falling prey to it.

And they only killed a few dozen in the process

I guess the best way I can say it, just speaking for me, is seeing the stock market getting as high as it did and seeing my 401K get higher, the unemployment numbers being what they were (before the pandemic) and the peace deals in the Mideast and thought "OK, this may just work". All that I guess gave us the justification to accept him for what he is. But, I'd be lying if the thought crossed my mind of seeing his volatile nature resurfacing. I guess I just hoped it wouldn't. Today, it was on display for the world to see. Just makes me mad now.

I can no longer vote for Democrats because of their social positions. Knowing what I know now wouldn't change how I voted. One guy on one side was crazy, the entire other side is hell bent on policies that I think are crazy. I dislike Trump the person. I still think he's less of a threat than the grievance party.

[sturg33]

Hahaha "we asked twitter to make them stop sharing our exact words!"

I'm sure they will oblige

[striker42]

I hope today is the turning point. Politics in this country has been a game of one upsmanship for far too long. One party does something, the other takes it to the next level.

I hope today starts the repudiation of extremism. We can disagree and debate a great many things but the core aspects of the system must be guarded and preserved.

Dems drove me to vote for the cheeto. Never thought I would but they gave me no choice. Id do it again as well

Side note... Trump means nothing to me. He is simply defense against an aggressive actor. His usefulness has expired so he can go away forever for all I care

[cajunrevenge]

The problem is we cant agree to basic facts. Too many people on both sides are too easily manipulated.

You're a data guy right? Educate yourself on what race is most likely to die per each armed confrontation with police. Pretend it's research to argue free agent values with clv, instead of accepting what the grievance industry has fed you. Like the idiots who stormed the Capitol today, a lot of people have allowed themselves to be misled.

What does Biden support that you think is crazy. Democrats specifically nominated him because he was as bland of moderate that they had to offer. You tell me what you fear will happen in these next 2-4 years of Democrat control.

I bet he abandons ship. He just up and leaves for another country.

[cajunrevenge]

25th amendment from what I know requires the full cabinet and 2/3rds majority of both houses of Congress. Based on the amount of Republicans still voting in favor of disenfranchising the voters of Arizona I cant see this happening.

[nsacpi]

over a hundred House Republicans just voted to toss out Arizona's electors just cuz the results didn't go their way

sorry guys I'm happy that's no longer my "side"

LMAO, this tired ass argument.

White people are killed more because they represent more of the population.

Why don't you read a ****ing report that spells out how dumb your argument is.

https://www.pnas.org/content/116/34/16793

"Risk is highest for black men, who (at current levels of risk) face about a 1 in 1,000 chance of being killed by police over the life course. The average lifetime odds of being killed by police are about 1 in 2,000 for men and about 1 in 33,000 for women. Risk peaks between the ages of 20 y and 35 y for all groups. For young men of color, police use of force is among the leading causes of death."

Here’s the thing...you have no such data

I don’t give 2 ****s about the color of the unarmed person killed by police. All I care about is that police misused their awesome power, and are very rarely held accountable.

Now if you are still under the false impression white grievance politics has brainwashed you into thinking that minorities have the same privilege as whites, and you lack the self awareness to see it, there’s literally nothing to debate.

I posted hundreds of words on this subject from the party platform when we talked about this earlier today. Killing the Hyde Amendment, teaching transsexualism in elementary schools, critical race theory, stuffing hiring ratios and racial justice into their environmental platform. It is nothing but hyphenated grievance pandering. Joe already made it clear he would play ball by proclaiming all of his historic picks for VP and Cabinet.
