    You realize that this loophole completely destroys the point that this b.s. thread topic was trying to make, don’t you? If this “professor” can’t even account for the Electoral College, a political institution created by our Founding Fathers, then his credibility on this subject doesn’t amount to a pile of President Trump’s poop.

    Then shouldn’t he have predicted Hillary in 2016?

    Given the trashed Trump military ballots found in PA. the instance by Democrats that mail-in ballots be accepted weeks after the election, the bribing of Felons by Soros to vote Democrat in FL, the demands by Democrats to allow vote harvesting, etc. it is clearly the Democrats that are trying to steal the election.

    Now how do you claim Trump is trying to steal the election. Do you have facts, or is this some Democrat talking point you read somewhere?

    Name one person Trump has murdered.

    "Murderous psychopath" is extreme hyperbole and as I keep pointing out extreme hyperbole is a salient characteristic of the modern left.

    I don't know anyone who has died of COVID but all of them can be directly attributed to Trump's willful mismanagement. Causing someone's death when you knew it would happen, could and should have stopped it and didn't is murdering them, isn't it? That's 200,000 and counting, enough "extreme hyperbole" for you?

    Firstly, how did Trump cause anyone's death, let alone 200,000 people. Would you care to explain this with some specifics.

    People have died all over the world due to Covid. And Trump doesn't run the world.

    BTW, hyperbole is a super exaggerated way of describing something that border on the ridiculous. A good example of extreme hyperbole is claiming Trump murdered 200,000 people.

    And here is my prediction:
    Trump will win or he will declare:
    "If you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally I won in a landslide the Electoral College and in a landslide I won the popular vote".

    ~ Ron Paul got my attention when he ran for president saying the federal reserve should audit system should be reformed and more detailed . The Federal Reserve Transparency Act was never passed.
    This must send chills through certain folks around Capitol Hill .

    That was Republicans officials obeying the result of a Republican court case. Ooopsie.

    Good luck getting a judge to buy that load of malarkey.

    You will believe anything.

    You mean the way Dems screwed up the postal service? Are trying to shut down vote counting in Penn 48 hours after the polls close? How about several different other kinds of vote suppression? Oh, wait, that's not the Dems.

    Yes, in a time of universal deception, speaking the truth is a radical act that offends many.

    You spoke an impossibility not a truth. The defense department couldn't have the equivalent of the national debt in its "coffers" let alone lose that much. It isn't true. Sorry.

    No no no, China murdered 200,000 Americans, not Trump. Let’s not forget the real enemy here. :police:

    I'm not weeping. I believe very little of internet articles, particularly when it fails a common sense test. You said lost, not spent. You didn't mention a time line. Your post didn't pass the smell test. Sorry.

    Having said that, I have no doubt at all that the defense department, like the rest of federal government wastes money to an incredible degree. Almost every day I post here that we need less federal government - a lot less.

    In a very perverse sense, observing denial in motion with its attendant rationalization is a fascinating thing.

    Just based on random chance you only need 512 history professors for one of them to have been right every election.

    The clout I place in these election psychics is no more or less than the rationality of their justification. It has literally nothing to do with past results.

    If you have enough octopus' or ducks a few of them will come up with the right result. To use that as evidence of future results is just the gambler's fallacy.

    China didn't compel Trump to call the disease a hoax. China didn't compel Trump to refrain from doing what S Korean, Taiwan and New Zealand did to have so many fewer fatalities. These countries were doing what they were doing at the same time Trump was not and what they were doing was well-known to every epidemiologist in the world. It was Trump who ignored his scientists, not the Chinese.

    Trump did not ever call the disease a hoax. He called the Democrats’ reaction to it a hoax. Blaming the disease and the COVID deaths on Trump is most definitely a hoax; most rational people out there can certainly see that. It is you radicals that are attempting to speak for everyone that are getting it all wrong.

    Example: When Trump banned most travel to and from China at the end of January, Pelosi’s response was to make an unmasked trip to Chinatown and call Trump a xenophobic racist. That is a perfect example of a Democrat’s reactionary hoax.

    Trump's travel ban was ineffectual to the point of being silly. It didn't apply to Americans returning home or to people who went from China to another nation and then onto the US. It was completely useless and aimed almost entirely at the Chinese people to mollify Trump's base with no other real use.

    Meanwhile, the actual coordination of obtaining PPE by the states was ignored, so that many States ended up competing with each other to get these life-saving supplies. This kind of coordination of State responses to national emergencies has long been recognized as a legitimate function of the Federal Government but under Trump the individual profiteering by his cronies was clearly more important than the lives of our citizens.

    Preventing any more people in the source country where the virus originated from coming here was far from ineffectual.

    Do you even live in America? I mean, you do realize that there are 50 individual states with 50 individual state governments that make up the United States, right? Yes, our country is called the United States of America, but we are united to make up America, not necessarily united to help each other state unconditionally.

    That being said:
