Western news media is partisan trash, so this is completely believable.

He looks so beaten. God, jumping through that speech I see why nobody wanted to carry it. Still, has this ever happened before to a President?

[–][deleted] 5 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 2 fun -  (19 children)

The media never liked to support lame duck Presidents, unless they were Democrat.

Also, they probably knew that Trump would whine about losing, like Hillary did in 2016, only with more words being repeated over and over again.

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 4 fun4 insightful - 3 fun5 insightful - 4 fun -  (14 children)

Words over and over make true. So it was in the long long ago and so it is today.

Nobody really liked Hillary, just like nobody is a huge Biden fan. It's like how shitty of a candidate can we pitch against this other shitty candidate while we get drunk and rail lines of blow.

hillary really was disliked, it was insulting we should let her be president just because she's the wife of a past president. biden is old and forgetful but at least he earned being a politician.

[–]d1450 3 insightful - 4 fun3 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 4 fun -  (1 child)

He earned being a politician just like you earned your "mentally challenged" parking space

by doing nothing for 47 years.

i mean he did do a few good things like the crime bill that kept violent black criminals behind bars, probably his top accomplishment lol

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Never heard anyone argue for for-profit imprisonment before. We made people slaves again.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

well it's for profit so I guess the problem is that they paid off judges to put more people in jail? I don't think that really happened tho, no need, black guys commit tons of crimes on their own so there'd be a never ending supply. They do need to be kept off the streets. I guess it should be govt run instead of private? I'd first focus on getting govt run healthcare. I think it's good violent black men get sent to jail, do you know any in real life? The only people that aren't racist are the rich white people living in gated communities who never have to interact with them.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

They had to pass a law in Texas that said judges could no longer sentence defendants to prisons they had a stake in. It says a lot a law like that needed to be passed.

do you know any in real life?

Violent black men? No. I figure it's for similar reasons that I don't generally encounter aggressive pitbulls.

[–]whistlepig 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

he earned being a politician

yep.. by being tied into foreign governmental control through family bribes.

Not for the citizenry it isn't...

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

4 years and nothing to show for it

[–]whistlepig 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

true... a lot fewer wars than normal

Losing? The race hasn't even been completed yet.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Biden won by a cunt hair. I thought everyone knew that by now. Or are you holding out for Trump's super secret evidence of election malfeasance? Will you be mad at Trump when you find out he lied to you or will you just take it?

[–]Intuit 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

It's in court. We'll see what they determine.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I know what they're going to determine, that isn't the part that interests me. I want to see those Trump supporters suck down that lie like a shameful load and wait on their knees eager for the next one. That will be glorious.

[–]LarrySwinger2Voluntaryist 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

He doesn't look beaten to me. It's very easy to misinterpret someone's physique. To me it looks like he's using facial expressions to get his points across more effectively, like he usually does.

[–]derraleek 8 insightful - 1 fun8 insightful - 0 fun9 insightful - 1 fun -  (8 children)

You lost either way. Billionaire Trump Or China Biden. Who makes your goods? Fighting the votes is just distraction, as always. We want a billionaire, or a billionaires pawn.

[–]Staf 11 insightful - 3 fun11 insightful - 2 fun12 insightful - 3 fun -  (7 children)

You lose either way

One of these guys is getting out of the TPP and the other started a company in china and got a payout in the form of a forgivable loan for millions of dollars.

One of these guys is removing critical race theory theocracy from Government the other allowed it to thrive.

One of these guys just helped sign multiple peace deals in the middle east and pushed to withdraw troops, the other started multiple wars.

[–][deleted] 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (6 children)

it's nice but they were all just half measures and not enough

should have stopped critical race theory and the wars on his first day in office, doing some half measures in his last few months in office because he realized he was down in polls due to doing nothing for 4 years. TPP is a good point, Obama tried it, will Biden get it in. He didn't renegotiate NAFTA like he said he would.

[–]jamesK_3rd 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (3 children)

I think this is 100% correct. He had 4 years get stuff done, and for many reasons, some of which are the fact he couldn't keep from stepping on his own phallus are the reason he's only got small amounts of what should've happened completed..

However, anyone making claims that China Joe and dumb Trump are the same are not only actively lying to you, and possibly themselves, they'll be the first to lead them to your house, with their finger wags and heads shaking, probably posting you on the head saying it's for your own good as they haul you away.

The idea that we can investigate pee tapes for 4 years meanwhile Trump's AG, claiming he doesn't see any evidence of election malfeasance while sworn testimony is being given in Michigan makes even Baghdad Bob blush.

That few Republicon governors or state legislators are looking into this leads me to believe they've already chosen. And in all honesty, when all of the systems that are put into place to enable fighting within the system (the courts, the laws, and elections) are removed in favor of one side, the reality is the fight will then take place outside of those bounds. Marriages tend to split when that happens.

Amendments the people vote on get nullified by the courts, such as in california. The black robes rewrite doctrine to make it legal, as in Obamacare, but an executive order such as Obamacare can't be rescinded, as in the case of Trump. You can have your abortion or attend your strip club but you can't go too mass, and you must quarantine after Thanksgiving but important people can still fly to see their family and not quarantine upon return.

The people making asinine comparisons of biden and Trump being the same are ok with the above. The ends justify the means. They're ok with you being carted off, it's for your own good, bigot.

I'm not sure that even if they recount it would away things for Trump, with this mail in voting system there's no shortage of fraud. They don't really care about the massive millions sent out in SSI and SSDI checks to dead or non existent persons, so if they don't care about money I'm not sure why they'd care about sending ballots only to existing persons.

A hard truth is this didn't just happen, it's been building up to this for years. And people are so dumbed down by pornhub, marijuana and their 1200$ unemployment check that it's largely irrelevant at this point. I have no idea when it's coming, but I think it is unfortunate, how we got here.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

being different from biden and dems isn't enough just cuz they each go after different voters. Need to be very different. During this year we had riots and looting from violent black people, it seemed trump did nothing. I guess didn't want to send federal troops in cuz that makes dem voters mad? Why? Who cares about them. Businesses are shut down unconstitutionally by dem and repub governors alike, needed to send federal troops in to stop that too. Too much doing nothing. He still got a lot of votes just not enough.

[–]whistlepig 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Not sure you understand the difference between federal and state governments and their jurisdictions.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

i think it's you that don't

[–]Staf 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Dude had half the government working against everything he did, one government official even admitted to lying to Trump to keep the actual number of troops in Syria. I can only imagine exactly how much effort but made to subvert most of his actions being made.

I'm not saying the guy is perfect and he did the best job we can ask for I'm saying he's done more for people then they would know and media would ever give credit for.

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

yeah it may not seem fair it just wasn't enough

a guy is lying to keep troops in syria? Thats treason and he should get federal death penalty. But nah let's leave him in place.

[–][deleted] 5 insightful - 4 fun5 insightful - 3 fun6 insightful - 4 fun -  (2 children)

45 minutes of utter whining. He's the president yet he had no decisive statement of Action, no plan to say. re-run the election in a fair manner? Whatever, US politics is all Bullshit anyway and he's probably just going through the motions for sympathy so that he gets good ratings on his next reality TV show.

Well that's the last trump video I will ever watch thank you very much. I always knew he was as full of Shit as all the others that buy their way into that job. I knew the "MAGA" cry was just fodder for the masses, that nothing would change, but it's hard not to see and read any of that dribble when you visit forums and subscribe to news feed.

That's what shits me the most. I am an Australian, I don't watch TV yet I am subjected to this american political theater at every turn. Even on the finance sites it has been unavoidable. Click an a story about gold investment or derivatives and you get 3 paragraphs of how trump is doing first. Fuck all politics!!!!!

I feel like taking an internet vacation until a month after the inauguration because by then the turd that is trump will be long forgotten and the turd that is biden will be ignored because that is what american media do. They will ignore him not because he is an ineffectual old pervert, but because he is their man so to speak and the last thing they will want is for him to look bad by publishing the crap that comes out of his sickly old mouth.

Click an a story about gold investment

How is investing in PMs in Australia? I know Europe is pretty much prohibited from earning anything from PMs thanks to VAT taxes. I have no idea what laws govern y'all although I imagine shipping is expensive.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Laws? Shipping? If a person wants to police themselves and collect revenue for the government then I guess that's their choice but it's not mine. Buying gold is best done in person, for cash, as with the selling of it. I only buy secondhand gold coin and there are no taxes payable on second hand goods here. I sold some once years back and had no dramas. Coin shops have a far amount of cash in their safes but for a big sale it's best to arrange it a day in advance with them to ensure they have the money on hand.

Having said all that this is not 2008, there isn't a lot of physical gold around anymore compared to back then and you may need to go to a big bullion house if you require a lot. But after you have paid for it you can always claim it was lost, then sell it later at the inflated price. It's no get rich quick investment though, it basically just tracks inflation over time. As the banks create more credit and the currency becomes worth less, gold goes up to reflect it's true value. The value of extraction, refining and distribution basically.

They'll only care when they start losing money for unethical behavior.
