Voter turnout

[Flyjunky]

To put it in the language of today: I feel 'seen' this morning. I have felt like for the last many years people who are just normal Americans have been absolutely sidelined, marginalized, and othered. It's nice to have a voice again.

Most succinct words spoken about why it turned out the way it did:

Wow. That is spot-on. Good for whoever that guy is to stay what’s been on our minds for so long.

Politicians are master manipulators at making hyperbolic statements to energize a base.

23 states passing legislation also aren’t indicative of fraud. It means those states had a republican legislature and governor who saw an opportunity to make a legislative victory without doing any actual meaningful legislating.

California passes legislation all the time to combat “climate change” it doesn’t make it real. But you know what you can sure drum up a bunch of useful idiot votes if your a green energy advocate there’s also a shitload of litigation in that field.

When you are setting at home wandering how this happened, look in the mirror. America spoke last night. They are tired of being brow beaten by people that say one thing when it’s clearly presenting as another. They are tired of being told morality means you must accept taboo as normal. They are tired of being lied too. They are simply tired on the condescending attitude of the elected elite.


Have a good day sir and enjoy the next 4 years.

I don't think many people realize how bad things really are. My wife is a store manager at a retail pharmacy like CVS. The stores are in decent suburban areas. She is inundated with, homeless people, illegals and drug dealers. The dealers are putting thousands of dollars in cash onto money aps daily. Theft is so bad many stores have closed. She sells the plan B pill so often it's hard to keep it stocked. She did inventory at her last job. Theft for stores like Kohls is over a million a year for one store. Homeless just fill carts and walk out. That's the American Democrats want. Kamala would have been more of the same.

No.

It was because it was so close to an election.

And "self admitted illegals" wasn't part of it.

Illegals, non citizens, same same. They changed that verbiage a few years ago. I believe the now politically correct term is undocumented non citizen.

Yes, 1600 self declared non-citizens. Nowhere was it said that they were "illegal" though. They could have been but may not have been.

The Supreme Court issued a stay and allowed it. There was a very good breakdown as to the arguments for it. I'll see if I can find it.

U.S. Supreme Court grants stay in challenge to Youngkin’s voter purge order • Virginia Mercury

In a significant decision, the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday granted a temporary stay in the ongoing legal dispute over Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s executive order that resulted in the removal of over 6,000 Virginians from the state’s voter rolls. The stay pauses a lower court’s ruling that would...

This was a pretty good breakdown as to the arguments supporting why the 90 day rule didn't apply.

DOJ Attempt To Keep Noncitizens On VA Rolls Was Legally Absurd

Virginia took its case to SCOTUS and marshaled three strong arguments for why its efforts to remove noncitizens from the rolls were lawful.

Appreciate the link. I wasn’t tracking the 90 day rule, just the issue of non citizens/ illegals on the voter rolls.

Interesting take. I believe that yesterday America’s character was tested and found lacking. A convicted felon who praised Hitler’s generals, knowingly lied about legal immigrants eating their pets and was recorded bragging about sexually assaulting women was chosen by a majority of Americans to lead our country. It was a sad day for America.

thanks to the powers that be for letting this thread continue. Please guys don't mess it up with personal attacks.

I am not reading all of the replies, but I thank you all for doing your part and you guys made my day waking up to hope!

America has a chance of greatness once again

I'm WFH today so decided to watch the View, for the lols. Those gals mostly didn't get it. They never once considered that people just wanted to put food on the table and have enough left over to buy a home. I think it's as simple as that. If you're some rich disconnected elite it's easy to get disconnected from what most of us go through every day.

I agree and can appreciate a civil conversation, as much as I hate politics.

Homeless just fill carts and walk out. That's the American Democrats want. Kamala would have been more of the same.

And this is why I hate politics. No, "Democrats" dont want people stealing from stores.

You are entitled to your opinion. You have that right.

Lol lol

You're trolling right?

BTW I’ve never seen voter turn out like this, yet we had 18M more votes last election, Something doesn’t add up.

Those clowns were dressed all in black, right?

I feel genuine hope for our great country for the first time in 3.85 years.

P.S. Thanks for posting the link @Flyjunky . I'm not on SM so would have not likely ever seen it, but it's dead on balls accurate.

Im curious why you think he is wrong?

]I am curious why 18 million people who voted for biden/harris did not vote for harris. That is not logical at all.

Policy and action are far more important to most Americans than is rhetoric and accusations.

I'm curious why anyone believes unsubstantiated rumors, like Trump "praising Hitler's generals", that illegal immigrants become legal because they fill out a questionnaire on an app, and that a two tier predatory "justice" system is a good thing or even legitimate...

TDS is a real thing apparently.

Should we say the same thing about 2020? Electing a lying, corrupt, dementia patient as president? Who lied about his involvement with his son’s grifting? Who used the DOJ and media as his personal hit squad? Who lied about taking classified docs while NOT even President? Who purposely left the border open to make us all less safe…amounts to treason. Since you brought up women..Biden was accused of sexual harassment and his VP believed the woman. We won’t even get into his daughter’s diary.

Would you like me to keep going?

It is a great day.
Still waiting for the concession speech from obama.
