Apparently only 100% of the vote in Philly has been counted. They still have a lot more votes to count.
It’s not the Republican Party that attracted more African American/Hispanic/Latino voters. It was Trump. The establishment Republican Party still thinks the way to attract minorities is to pander to them in Jeb! style. Without Trump, they will go back to that, and the Republican share of the minority vote will go back to where it was.
With Trump gone, the Republican Party will return to its genteel ways, thinking it is to vulgar to actually fight Democrats. The Biden/Harris Administration will be the most corrupt in history, and Congressional Republicans will tut-tut but do nothing about it, lest the MSM call them racists.
There is, but the Democrats rejected that in order to secure their fraud.
Gary, we won in 2016 without you. The point is that the 95% of R who support Trump will not be led by the 5% who didn’t. Every NT pundit is gone from our loyalty and we will vote against candidates they support. The policies advocated by Biden are disastrous. No Reagan Republican would ever support them.
Do NeverTrumpers believe they will be welcomed anywhere?
Turnout is way to high for both parties and way to close for this election to //mean// much of anything except that Breyer retires and is replaced by Garland.
The country didn’t accept or reject anything.
California and NYs collapse into failed states is going continue to have political consequences around the nation.
Until the Republicans get an Agenda beyond not being democrats, they are going to find it hard to pull away
Based on the vote last night I wouldn’t assert that if I were you. Where was the Kasich effect in Ohio? Did Mittens lead Biden to the promised land in Utah? Did THE Rick Wilson impact his home state of Florida?
And that “rule of law” thing? Retire it. All around the country judges rewrote law to facilitate voter fraud. And you own that.
Not really. If you supported the impeachment, you supported mob rule. Sorry. Own it.
Heh. Things you tell yourself to make yourself feel better.
News flash: we didn’t need them in 2016. And there were more of them back then.
Yep. Trump in 2020 is no Nixon in 1960.
Fact check: true.
Trying to find a silver lining: One advantage the right has is the Democrat emphasis on identity politics means they put incompetent people in place for the sake of identity. This was true of Hillary, who had an inverse Midas-touch, destroying anything she came in contact with. Harris is even more so than Hillary; entirely unlikeable, completely uncharismatic, no talent for much of anything other than sleeping her way to the top. Even the people around her hate her, just like Hillary.
Presidents depend a lot on popular support to make things happen. Harris will be so off-putting and just won’t have the competence to be a real danger, although she will definitely try. But I suspect she will just embarrass herself.
I can’t wait for the first NeverTrumper pundit to start criticizing the Biden administration. I will be happy to remind them that this is exactly what they wanted.
He also supports riots, looting, political prosecutions, critical race theory, etc.
This is what the Never Trumpers are supporting de facto:

Namely, illegal acts aimed at throwing the election to Biden. The Republican legal teams should be filing their actions right now.
I must respectfully disagree. I will concede that Donald Trump opened the door to the prospect but he is not the future. Of course nor is it the Republican Party of Gary Robins and Jonah Goldberg either….nor will they be players in this new coalition…no..the new leaders are Tim Scott, Candice Owens, Larry Elder, John James, Kim Kasik and those like them. In my opinion, Donald Trump has served his purpose; dragging this election through the mud will do nothing to solidify this coalition….it is there for the Republicans to take….will they is the question. I sure hope so….
You mean like . . .
Biden did what Trump was accused of doing in impeachment. And you still supported him.
Whine…….
What do you think Drew? Can Trump pull out Wisconsin with what’s left?
It will be interesting to see what percentage of Republicans like me voted for Biden, Trump or third party. If Trump won 95% of Republican’s votes, he would be winning. But I’m guessing that he will win only 85% of Republican votes, which would be fatal.
The irony is that Trump did this to himself with his lack of discipline, his tweets, and his demand that no Republicans ever criticize him. Before Charlottesville, I was slowly warming to Trump. I could have been won over. But Trump couldn’t or wouldn’t reach out.
Don’t negotiate with Terrorists. I will not bow to your threats.
You get over it. The Republican votes don’t want you.
You’re still peddling the C hoax.
I don’t need your welcome. Lord knows, Trump wasn’t welcomed by the Republican Party in 2016. But he won in 2016. And it appears that he lost in 2020. Elections have consequences.
The Left’s talking points on Twitter is that the Republicans went to court to prevent ballots in Wisconsin from being counted before yesterday so the delay is on them. Is this remotely true?
Mitch is the face of the Senate.
You want to subject the country to Joe Dementia Biden and Kamala Harris with AOC and the squad pulling strings? Are you crazy? You sound worse than the NeverTrumpers. We have to fight this tooth and nail.
Absolutely.
See Arizona, Wisconsin and Michigan, and maybe Pennsylvania and Georgia.
Does “voter fraud” mean count every vote during a pandemic?
If you are right, and never trumpers sunk Trump this go around, then you are worse than Democrats.
But you don’t care. You don’t care about anything other than defeating Trump. Nothing else has ever mattered to you. Almost all your posts are about that.
I own that Lamar Alexander was correct when he admitted that the House Managers had made their case.
But you needed us in 2020; we declined to vote for Trump; and, it appears that Trump lost.
