    Same thing was said about Al Gore in 2000. Yet, they DNC still Supported his challenge of the election results. Why would you deny President Trump that same right when there were clearly some problems with the elections? I know, you can't see the problems because they do not support your sense of reality. You reject any idea that does not match what you want to happen. I say give these challenges a chance. If they fail so be it. If they turn out right, then so be that also. Surely, you would not want to follow the examples of third world countries to allow a reasonable challenge to the election process?

    Stop with the 2000 nonsense. Different election. Different circumstances. It's done.

    Hold on...2020? Check. Biden vs Trump? Check.

    You're in the wrong decade, and technically, the wrong century.

    It's really sad that those still grounded in reality are dismissed as leftists, communists or whatever stupid word Trump wants to use. Pathetic. And embarrassing.

    If Trump does not concede

    The law doesn't require concessions. Even common sense doesn't require them. Trump's not conceding changes absolutely nothing.

    Al Gore wasn't legally challenging "the election".

    it was an extremely close call in Florida... I think it hinged on 500 votes or something and he wanted a recount. He wasn't claiming that the other side systematically cheated.

    YOUR biggest LOSER*-in-Chief can allege whatever he likes but WITHOUT anything to PROVE that fraud he has SQUAT and the courts will THROW it out together with the 16+ lawsuits of his BOGUS fraud claims that have already been thrown out.

    There is ZERO credible evidence of any "glitch" that caused any votes to be changed.

    The extremist rightwing has ALWAYS had their own "cancel culture" that has effectively "cancelled" the voting rights of minorities, welfare benefits for the less fortunate, healthcare for those with pre-existing conditions, etc, etc, etc.

    So the HYPOCRISY is apparent when they accuse others of what they themselves have been doing with impunity.

    Because the evidence shows there aren't problems with this election and your comparison to the 2000 situation is not analogous.

    One more thing. It is an astonishingly bad sign for the country that Trump is able to distort the perception of reality for The Following. It's as though 40% of the population is suffering from hallucinations.

    This is OLD news and already DEBUNKED by the GOP legislatures in the swing states won by Biden.

    In essence there will NOT be a contested election under the 12th Amendment just because YOUR biggest LOSER*-in-Chief isn't man enough to admit that he will be REMOVED from the Oval office by the WILL of We the People.

    There are already more than enough EC votes for Biden to be our next President under the racist EC system.

    Facts matter!

    It's really dumb to accuse people of something they never did nor supported. I guess if we didn't vote for Trump, that makes us all the same.

    There are a lot of genuine conservatives and rightwing moderates that did not want to be associated with the odious biggest LOSER*-in-Chief and found themselves being accused of being liberals for their willingness to speak out against him.

    This BINARY mindset that you are either with us or against us seems to be commonplace among that subset of the population that embraces far right extremism. I can recall being asked in past elections if I was going to vote Republican or Communist by some of them as if only they represented what it meant to be an American.

    What they fail to grasp is that homogeneity is weaker than diversity because it lacks other perspectives and experiences. Just as men and women have different perspectives and experiences so do other races and cultures. By being open to these alternatives we can find solutions that work for everyone as opposed to having only a single perspective being imposed on everyone regardless as to it's effectiveness in real life.

    A classic example of how perspectives can be altered is just by taking cops out of cars and putting them on bicycles or foot patrols in neighborhoods. As soon as you remove that barrier you find that attitudes on both sides change for the better.

    Al Gore challenged how the count was conducted. He claimed that votes were thrown out that should have legally been counted, and claimed that those votes would have given him the elections. Suggestion: Research Hanging Chads. This is no different in this election. President Trump is challenging the way the votes were counted, and whether other votes were included that should not have been. There is a very distinct parallel between this election and that in 2000.

    You have NOT provided any factoids to support your BOGUS allegation about a "glitch".

    YOUR biggest LOSER*-in-Chief is certifiably UNHINGED and hopefully will be INCARCERATED for his crimes next year.

    We are at the point in this nonsense where even Howard Stern is giving prudent advice:

    “For once do something good for the country, calm down your ****ing loony hillbilly friends, and tell them you lost the election and you’re going to help the transition,” he said, according to the Daily News. “These loonies who follow you are all worked up; they think something was taken from them.”

    Sorry to burst your bubble but it's only 26-24 states. All it takes is one state to flip and Kamala Harris becomes president.
