    I want to give the new administration a chance. I hope they don’t make it unbearably hard to do so.

    No you don't because you wouldn't be accusing them of fraudulently being in office

  3. How many times have I accused Biden and or Harris of fraud? They may be the beneficiaries of coordinated election fraud, but it is safe to say that regardless, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will be President and Vice President of the United States. As such, I will be supportive of them unless the new Administration end up showing a pattern of self serving behavior. Further, there is an issue that is likely to move to the forefront once Trump leaves office. This issue could explain the developments of the last few months and shed a whole new light on the elections and other related events. Depending how this and related issues resolve, it could be favorable for the new administration, thus an open mind is warranted. Further, have you not noticed I treaded quite lightly around Biden and Harris outright, much less how I have gone after Obama, Bush, and for that matter, Trump? If you get bored, do a search for my posts on Kamala and see what my opinion is. If you do a search on my opinion on Biden, not that much will turn up.

    Bottom line, if I say I going to give someone a chance, I will. This does not mean I will never be critical of them. Case in point, you’ve read my critical posts of Trump pardoning Blagovich, Trump unnecessarily causing harm to certain foreign relationships and me being critical of Trump University, right? You have read me arguing for Leftist issues such as Covid and George Floyd, correct?

    While you are smart, it does seem your perceptions can run astray from time to time.

    Questioning their right to be in the office means you aren’t giving them a chance.

  5. Nonsense. There are multiple, still unresolved election related anomalies. Questioning an election for cause is not unpatriotic. Indeed, it is the opposite. Again, there is an additional element to this story that I’m not going into until Trump leaves office. As such, drawing final conclusions at this point would be premature.

    I hope the new administration does well. Debt levels for several levels of government is seemingly dangerously high as is debt levels for many businesses and consumers. Our economy seems vulnerable and the recovery has been uneven. There are significant geopolitical issues ahead.

    If the new administration does well, it will mean they have successfully navigated several key serious and difficult issues, benefitting all of us, regardless of political affiliation. Speaking of political affiliation, I am still a registered Democrat.

    If the new administration instead focuses on a war with Republicans and trying to punish Trump supporters, they will fail. Consumer confidence among Republicans and business owners will drop, ultimately adversely affecting spending and hiring decisions, thus our economic recovery. This could lead to capital and talent flows towards more business friendly countries, possibly leading to long term economic stagnation in the United States.

    Do you now see how it makes sense for me to be supportive of the new administration?

    You're arguing with a bored trucker. He/she doesn't actually give a fuck, they just want to read and write to keep their Self alive while their body dies of sitting, monotony, shit hours, and shit food.

  9. Please reread the post you are quoting. Slowly, please. Consider what my words mean. It seems you are so wrapped up on the narratives provided to you by the media that you can not read or think straight.

    I still am rooting for you to expand from the confines of our biased and propaganda based media.

    As America and the world are waking up about Trump and now trying to root them out like weeds in a garden...

    Social media mainstream platforms is starting to do the same. It's going to be a trickle down affect because your going to start seeing forum owners and many no longer want to deal with this type of conspiracy theorist quacks, covidiots and many racists...

    Forum owners will start to do what Twitter / Facebook has now done...temporary bans, permanent bans, censoring, put a face on them (no more anonymous posting) and many other typical tactics because views / click counts is no longer worth it when you know eventually people are going to be shooting it out outside like real civil war.

    Social media were enablers too and the last thing they want to see is the government get involved with their platforms to tell them how to manage its members.
