      Maybe because there was a +30 MILLION vote swing from the last election 4 years ago! If you look at vote totals for every election they are similar in progression around 2 million every election except Obamas 2008 election was +8 Million (That had alot to do with him being the 1st black president) But then in 2012 Obama vs Romney the vote total dropped -2.4 MILLION (Based on Obamas 1st term as Romney received more votes than McCain) Point is you can go all the way back to George Washington there has NEVER been a +30 MILLION difference in 4 years. New voters are registered every year but old registered voters die. It's literally impossible to get that many people registered in 4 years. That's only one red flag! There are plenty of other events that happened along te way that points to fraud so Trump has merit to call them out. And I understand why his supporters are angry.

      2. A red flag is a warning sign. Nothing more. If even GOP officials and so many courts and national and international journalists couldn't find any hint to systemic manipulation, it might just be that, it might just be, that 30 Mio people voted differently. And when even some of the president's fiercest supporters, like fox news or at last also the vice president acknowledge that Biden won, then no, we don't have to acknowledge these allegations anymore. They were heard, they were dismissed, there was no serious hint to systemic manipulation. Just because something is repeated, doesn't make it truthful.

      @@cheekoandtheman See... that's the illness democracy has. IMHO the point is NOT to exclude people like Trump or Murdoch from the right to express their opinion. The point is people has to be EDUCATED to politics. People has to understand what a person is really saying, if he's telling lies and how, but at the moment they don't (btw, that's why people like Trump has success in depressed areas). The disconnection between politics and people all around the world (I'm from Italy and in some ways we are living same kind of problem) is due not to the fact that wrong people can express "wrong opinions", but to the fact that people can't distinguish between an opinion and a lie.
      Can you solve immigration problems? No, you can't. You can for sure mitigate them, help integration, let the immigration impact be smoother, but for sure not cancel it. If it comes somebody that says: "I will stop immigration", the point is not that he can't say that, but that people can understand it's a lie.

    • @dysamoria
      @dysamoria Před 3 lety

      Most of us DO deserve him. The system is so rigged that we hardly get excused for voting for him, or Green Party candidates. Stein voters got thrown in with misogynists for not liking Clinton, and it makes no sense at all (don't even get me started on the self-fulfilling prophecy of "the Green Party will never get the vote"). We figuratively had a gun held to our heads to vote for Biden over a third party back in 2020 and the DNC is fully culpable in that threat. The duopoly is killing us, and we don't really have the freedom to effect change when those parties have ensured their dominance and closed the doors to any alternatives. Biden won because people like me threw up our hands and voted for him because this country needed immediate triage, and desperately needed to oust Trump.

I know, that if my family was murdered by a guy in a Biden shirt, nobody here would care, but if the guy had a Trump shirt on, I'd be all over the national news.

      @Leonard Weisfeld like I said earlier, the whole process of picking and electing president seems hopeless mired in techniques and standards that are from the 1800s. At this point I would want nothing more then the system torn down, and rebuilt. Ranked choice voting is becoming popular across the cities and states around the country.

      @@AC3handle Bernie is not part of the system, they could not let him win, remember the msm saying he was not electable? They switched to an app before reporting the 1st Iowa primary which they say failed, they did not report Bernie as the sweeping winner until a week later, by then he had already won the next state, he won again after that, they got scared, that is when a few candidates dropped out and backed Biden, Warren who was following Bernie's policies and behind, would not to the same for him, Obama called in favors for Joe, after that it was over, they manipulated the primaries to put Biden on the ticket, Bernie always putting country and the people first knew the most important thing was to make sure Trump was not re-elected, backed Biden, he took flack from his supporters for this but stayed true to doing the best he could for us, I saw it and so did many others whether we liked it or not, Trumps camp tried to steal away or dissuade Bernie supporters to help him but we were smarter, we may not have Bernie as POTUS but he is still fighting for us and Trump will be a bad memory soon.

      He should be Senate Majority Leader, but he won't because he isn't part of the conservative Democratic majority. He's too "radical", by which they mean that he's a relatively moderate progressive liberal. The _only_ way the US will survive if there is an _actual_ conservative party and an _actual_ liberal party. Currently we have a right-wing extremist group masquerading as a political party and literally everyone else that opposes them. That is not a healthy political environment. That's what the politics of a dying nation looks like.

      Same, but we'll take the small wins where we can get for now. I hope there are other politicians that take up his mantle.

      i wholeheartedly agree with you, but its probably best if he wasn't president. as you no doubt saw, America has a worryingly large amount of psychotic Trump cultists. that would of without hesitation JFk'd Bernie the first chance they got. and they most likely would of succeeded to because some filthy bastard in some high authority position in your government would of allowed it to happen.

      Not only in the committee, but the incoming chairman. That is huge.

      Sorry, we're not anywhere near done with him! I'm excited (hopeful) to see the role he will play, and the media attention he will, now, get.

    Colbert is conducting amongst the best interviews that I'm seeing these days in media in general.

    If I could just wave a magic wand and make it happen, I'd put Bernie Sanders and Stephen Colbert in charge of this country. Those two are honest, compassionate, and wise, and they're both true patriots.
