Grandpa Joe, who actually struggles to speak in complete sentences, got more votes than Obama.. The guy who never got to ride the "Blue Wave" all the polls and pundits said was coming our way Let that bullshit sink in for a while.
Some irony to all this:
1.
The democrats spent 4 years crying, kicking and screaming about how Trump's presidency was illegitimate and his victory or Clinton was full of illegal shenanigans.
They also blasted the Electoral College when Trump won.
Now "the system works" and there's absolutely no chance in hell any "fix" was in for Biden. Noooooooo! Not a chance! The Democratic party is too honest for that!
2.
Despite 4 years of the left telling everyone Trump and the right are a bunch of racists that hate Latinos in particular (all those cages at the border!), Latinos (and other minority groups) actually came out in droves to vote for him this time around.
Marinate on that for a while, particularly if your white and have taken the liberty to inform people of color how they should feel about the past 4 years.
The Democratic Party is a sorry, empty, unprincipled, immoral shell of what it used to be.
How can anyone with half a brain actually feel good about the future of this morally bankrupt party?
Wasn't the issue during the previous election that Clinton won the popular vote, but due to the way the electoral college works, lost the race?
I think that's a legitimate concern. I've read commentary for and against the electoral college, but it's been a few years.
If Biden wins both the electoral college, and the popular vote, then what is your point? There is no irony, is there?

Your previous words don't lead to this conclusion. I think you're just whining because Trump is likely to lose.
I think we should dig deeper into which party is immoral and unprincipled.

Don't you know, those things are just part of Trump's style, Interbane. Why are all the Democrats and so many misguided Republicans so obsessed with mere style, or, so to speak, his rhetoric? If you use your "mute" button on Trump, you'll be able to see his accomplishments shining through.

Hello ant. You like to ask for evidence, so I'll request your evidence that it was the party, and not the voters, who made Biden the nominee. .
Despite 4 years of the left telling everyone Trump and the right are a bunch of racists that hate Latinos in particular (all those cages at the border!), Latinos (and other minority groups) actually came out in droves to vote for him this time around.
Marinate on that for a while, particularly if your white and have taken the liberty to inform people of color how they should feel about the past 4 years.
OK, support by Latinos and blacks is higher than Democrats would have predicted or of course wanted, but don't exaggerate the numbers. Both groups, I'm pretty sure, overwhelmingly voted for Biden.
The Democratic Party is a sorry, empty, unprincipled, immoral shell of what it used to be.
How can anyone with half a brain actually feel good about the future of this morally bankrupt party?
Feeling good about a party has nothing to do with electing Biden over Trump--not for me. And start with Interbane's list of Trumpisms and then consider who acquiesced to all that bullshit and insult, almost to a man or to a woman, before you talk about bankrupt parties.

Enough with the bullshit explanations about laws being "different " for ballot counting.
The year is 2020!
I agree. Requiring that mail-in ballots only be counted on election day is stupid. They could have changed it in mid October, but the state house GOP, fearful of voter fraud, stuffed the bill with restrictions that would make voting more difficult. Which is why it got vetoed.
LMAO! Pennsylvania just won their right not to be transparent!
How many more mail in votes will be found, I mean, counted, in the remaining dumbass states that are taking days to get them counted and will get the most "popular" president in US history into the White House?
You know, the guy who had about 30 people at his rallies, hid in his basement for months, and ran the ABSOLUTE SHITTIEST campaign in modern US history.
DEMS - 20016 - 2020 "Voter integrity is a problem!" "The system was rigged!" "The Electoral College is irrelevant!"
DEMS - November 2020 - " The system works!" "The people have spoken!" "There is not such thing as voter fraud!"
We live in a simulation, guys, run by a mad genius with a black belt in hypocrisy!
Keep riding the train, my discerning friends.
