Opinion | My Lunch With President Biden

I left with a full stomach but a heavy heart.

I assume most of us would have numerous worries after spending an hour “talking” to Mr. Biden.

Q: How does a democracy work if no one believes in the results of an election.? A: it doesn't

We already seen states trying to invalidate the elections in other states, and since then the efforts to undermine trust in our elections and restrict voting have only increased. Running for office as a Republican means almost all have to buy into the big lie, independent voting officials have received death threats, and oversight of elections is increasingly in the hands of political parties which is exactly the plan devised to overthrow the last election. IOW both parties are increasingly motivated to question election results.

The US is no longer the gold standard when it comes to elections.

You’ve obviously missed the numerous videos of Hillary claiming the 2016 presidential election was fraudulent and stolen from her 😂😂

Coming soon: Biden and Bilkin debate each other on whether we will defend Tiawan with US forces.

Hey I haven't seen @TUMe on here since this post. /\ I know he has been posting less and less, but I don't remember him going this long without posting. Wondering if he has lost interest or something else.

 

[watu05]

Agreed, he hasn't complained about me personally in some time. I hope he's ok.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

If he doesn't answer my call(@TUMe) to arms in 5 or 7 days, I'll probably email him to see if he's ok.

 

[watu05]

Any TUME news?

Any TUME news?

I'll email him tomorrow. I accidentally have both his and his wife's email. Can't remember which is which. I'll send an email to both.

Arizona took the lead in undermining faith in out elections withs its fake show audit and is now back in front in election intimidation. A judge rules it’s just fine for white men in tactical gear and guns to ‘monitor’ drop boxes. It makes sense if you think your group will lose a fair election that surpressing votes from the other group would be appealing. The problem is that path ends up with a country that looks more like Venezuela or Russia than the US of 20 years ago.

It makes sense that if one sees a nation‘s demographics or majority moving away from his group that he would work to keep those people from voting. The problem is that results in country that looks more like Venezuela or Russia than the US of 20 years ago.

Haven’t states allowed armed men of ALL colors to hang around polling places for years? Read the ruling. Can you point out the language where it allows only white men to conduct such activity?

For the record, I believe no one of any color should be armed anywhere near voting places.

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Following voters from the polling box should be stopped.

 

[watu05]

No faith in elections. Next week could be ugly.

Trump encourages supporters to independently monitor polling places — a federal crime

What President Trump is urging his supporters to do differs from the duties certified poll watchers are tasked with.

Agree. Or in 2024. Hillary needs to chill on the “Pubs are going to try to steal the election” rhetoric.

States counting the results in a timely manner will also help. There is zero reason in todays era of technology that tens of thousands of votes are being added the day offer the election. Especially if the votes are predominantly for one candidate. Just bad optics.

dems have been whining about elections since gore/bush.

dems have been whining about elections since gore/bush.

Gore accepted the contested outcome decided by several hundred votes in Florida and won the national popular vote. Contrast that with the Big Lie and Trumps huge popular loss. Whining is one thing, attacking the capital and destroying faith in our electoral system is criminal.

The Russian bots are back.

Or contrast to Hillary still not accepting her 2016 loss and already questioning the validity of the 2024 election

Her problem is nobody listens to her. Good for the majority though!

2. all the rep won, except trump
3. mail in ballots signatures. didnt match
4. no way did bidem got more votes than Bho.
5. popular vote does not matter. its like after a baseball game claiming victory because you got more hits.
