It's just copium unfortunately

Ugh, again the mods merged another thread to this one. It messes up the conversation here.

I'm sorry but lets not get deluded here and act like MAGAts claiming election fraud  

 

Trump won decisively. Kamala loss. End of story. We need to move on to fight back another day (or cycle). 

[no_better]

Do you guys think that the Democratic party should go all the way left now instead of trying to pander to both sides? How can we revitalise populism that seems to have worked in Trump's favour?

[Harrier]

Hang it up blue MAGA Trump had his best numbers ever going to this election, the result is extremely within the realm of expectation and believability. Don't make our side look as bad as theirs did during '20. It's idiocy

Contrapoints' statement about the election is so depressing.

 

 

I really hope the worst that she fears doesn't come to pass, but I understand the hopelessness here. Having watched her content for years, I feel like it's going to be hard to see her go through this.

Just go full on leftist. At least if we lose we'll lose fighting for something.

Do you mean the Starlink conspiracy theory? It's this.

Did you see the video above? People are saying Trump and Elon did something fishy. But let's see if they find proof.

Oh there was a thread about Kamala spending $1M on Oprah. I posted in that thread about the source of the info, it looks that thread is now merged with this big one

Oh okay. It's confusing when another thread gets put in the middle of this.

Hey @khalyan could you tell the mods to not merge other political threads to this one? It confuses the convo here. Sometimes not sure what people are replying to. See the posts above, for example.

The problem liberals have is the mainstream media platforms they've consistently relied upon are a dying breed. Printed news is no longer printing, cable news is facing extinction due to cord-cutting, and the websites with paywalls are seeing their subscriptions dry up. Liberal podcasters and streamers also can't compete with leftists like Hasan, which are also greatly outpaced by the entire conservative consumption market themselves.

 

They failed to invest in independent media, and they will fail to catch up due to the fact that they're also still desperately trying to cling onto their grip on information and trying to strangle their independent counterparts. The YouTube algorithm greatly favors MSNBC and CNN clips while suppressing indie commentators. And now that Elon Musk has taken over the digital public square, Leftists in particular are quietly getting shadowbanned and don't come up in search results.

 

They've made their bed and now they're lying in it. They didn't take the red flags of their failing media ecosystem seriously enough.

100% agree with all of this. 

 

Sadly I don't think they'll get a clue before 2028. They'll cart their candidate around The View and SNL, beg for celebrity endorsements, and then be shocked when they lose again.

Dems should lay low for a year or two, let the damn country burn, it's not like they can change anything, come back for next election, they might be precieved as a new, fresh idea or whagever. Endless talk about every nonsense orange man and his cult do is not changing anyones mind.

Lizzo charged 3 million for her little speech, Beyoncé god knows, probably even Taylor and Billie were paid 

 

they spent 1.4 billon dollars in the shortest campaign in history and aparently are now in debt 

 

I don't want to drag but how is a Lizzo speech worth 3M anyway

Katy's wonky 20 minute performance was 20 million dollars 

 

they were given a lot of money by a lot of big companies so they could spend it like there was no tomorrow because they were sure that would bring them closer to the victory

I'm beginning to believe it. Alot of things don't make sense. The results were so quick. She didn't get ANY swing state??? Elon talking about knowing the results days before it's announcement? Trump's uncharacteristic silence, scores of people online talking about checking their votes online and seeing they got rejected or unavailable etc etc. 

Elon being involved in this makes THE MOST sense to me, he said anything can be hacked

Exactly this. **** around and find out. That's my only solace. The idiotic magats will burn with the rest of us especially the ones that aren't white male. 

The legal Latino immigrants are about to FIND OUT!

Katy should probably give that 20 million back so the campaign won't be in debt to Trump paying her bills for her

Not the cheating conspiracies. Let me just keep my mouth shut.

Joe Rogan said Elon knew a few hours before polls closed. That's not shocking. 

 

It has been obvious to many people all year (and last year!) that Trump was going to win. Anyone who followed the polls with their head instead of their heart, and didn't fall for the Selzer copium, knew Trump was going to win. Anyone who followed the exit polls on Election Day could see how it was going hours beforehand. 

 

Elon employs some of the top programmers and data scientists in the world. Calling the election early doesn't show it was rigged. It just shows how well people can analyze data/statistics. 

 

Let's not keeping turning into BlueAnon here.

I mean it's Trump. If he genuinely believes Democrats rig elections he would obviously not run again unless he had some sort of counter plan to offset the dems "rigging" it.

 

Like it doesn't make sense to claim so heavily the 2020 election was rigged and yet to run again the next time no different. 
 

Then the oddity of many states losing the presidential election but winning local like senate and stuff makes it more weird. 
 

Then stuff like Elon Musk being SO attached to the Trump and desperate for him to win that he basically turned twitter into a republican/trump ad (when he previously continued to champion for social media to be impartial). 
 

And I'm certain if they did do something fishy, they'd do it knowing democrats are too "spineless" to actually claim election fraud like they did. 
 

Not saying there's election fraud, but it would easy for them to pull it off as they have the resources and know democrats are not going to do anything about it.

 

Why would they not cheat to win the White House, senate, and house? All while having the Supreme Court? They'll get to turn this country into whatever they want.

Looks like there's a mini civil war hapenning in Trump circles on whether to employ neocons or not
