    Trump doesn't have 74 million supporters by any means

    Most people vote a party ticket

    The left has zero priority in compromise and closing the divide.

    None.

    So if you are on the right you are only a racist if you vote and he was just talking about 74 million and this is how he wants to unify with them. OH let me guess it will be after her reeducates them.

    Agree with both of you.

    After four years of reckless driving, basic competence seems miraculous. It's only day one, but I like her better than Gibbs. The confidence is there, perfectly suited speaking style and flowing candor. I thought Gibbs to be abrasive at times; she seems less so. Highest level of professionalism, though. It's sad we're so refreshed by something we used to take for granted.

    She dodged a couple questions with ease while maintaining complete control. The abortion question will come up again. She can't just keep saying Joe and Jill went to church this morning.

    Rumor is the impeachment trial will be quick. At first, I favored holding off for 100 days, but now I see the value in proceeding quickly. Psaki answered the questions properly and nothing else needs to be said.

    I agree - we are more divided. Trump supporters think Democrats are Marxists or communists and Democrats think Trump supporters are fascist or racists. The worst -Trump supporters don't understand what is democracy. They don't understand that in democracy the court decides if the elections was 'stolen' and only in dictatorship Dear Leader decides if the election was fair.
    I also agree that the impeachment is a crap - Democrats will find Trump always guilty and Republicans will always find Trump innocent even if murdered an innocent person in the middle of 5th Ave - and Trump knows it;

    Do you believe her opening sentence was professional? Do you believe the press corp asking the questions was more professional with Trump press spokesmans or the Biden's? Do you think the questions were equally tough and were they just as respectful with both?

    What are you talking about? Malcolm X and MLK Jr. both talk about this problem. Liberals can be terribly racist. It's a serious problem for civil rights.

    Trump represents white supremacists last chance to hold power before blah blah blah something something cosmic war, where they won't have the numbers anymore. So oppose the Biden win now, otherwise you won't be able to in the future.

    And in our Republican when we do have elections the results can be contested by the losing candidate. It if is Marxist, Communist, Fascist doctorial governments the loser cannot. And investigators find out if elections are stolen. Trump wasn't trying to "decide" the election he was trying to get what he believed he was not, a fair day in court and all legal votes counted and all illegal ballots not counted. I never thought he would present enough votes to change the election but he certainly had his right to contest it.

    White supremacists.

    “A cry that can’t be any more desperate or any more clear. And now a rise of political extremism, white supremacy, domestic terrorism that we must confront and we will defeat.”

    What do you mean Trump supporters don't understand democracy? It's the other way around. It was Democrat pollsters in Blue States that disallowed Republican poll watcher access to their bogus ballot counting. If Democrats understood democracy they would not accept hundreds of thousands of bogus ballots shipped in from New York to Pennsylvania and beyond with only Biden votes to swing those states to Biden. Had the courts actually opened up the cases then this would have all come out in court. The deep state was ready, again. Now, they seek to silence Republicans and conservatives on social media as well as over the TV and Radio airways. They pushed the phony Trump impeachment saying Trump incited the attack on the Capitol when now both CNN and the Washington Post say otherwise. Why after the impeachment? Corrupt. Democrats don't know what democracy is nor a Constitutional Republic in which we really are.

    Trump did criminal reform to fix Joe Biden's 1994 Crime bill so that makes him a great guy right?

    How are these people criminal justice reform activists and why do you give them a free pass from violence and rioting?

    Well, you don’t understand democracy and you don’t understand capitalism. Even if it was true that “hundreds of thousands of bogus ballots shipped in from New York to Pennsylvania and beyond”, even it if was true that “the courts actually didn’t open up the cases” – in democracy you have to accept courts decision. Only someone who want to be a dictator would say “we will never give up, we will never concede”.
    Democrats knows what democracy is, this is why Al Gore conceded in 2000:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_...n_Florida#Florida_counties'_recount_decisions

    and Hillary Clinton conceded in 2016:
    http://centurycity.news/greg-palast...-to-cover-up-minority-voters-bal-p506-174.htm

    You also don’t know what capitalism is. You say: “Now, they seek to silence Republicans and conservatives on social media as well as over the TV and Radio airways”.
    Do you want a big government with thousand of regulation which prevent Twitter, Google or Amazon from making money? You sound like a Marxist!

    Trump tried and over 50 courts decided there is no evidence the the election was stolen. His own attorney general decided the elections was not stolen. Georgia's Republican secretary of state decided the elections was not stolen. In democracy it means Trump is a loser. He has right to believe in the Tooth Fairy, in Santa Clause, but as US politician he should declare what Al Gore did in 2000 and Hillary Clinton did in 2016 - to admit that he lost.
    I don't care in what Trump believes, but is is sad that 74 million of Americans trust more politician that the US courts.

    There should be a comprehensive transparent audit of the election because so many had suspicions.

    In the military, they teach leaders about fraternization, which occurs when a superior is too friendly with a subordinate, perhaps even to the point of relationships outside of work. They teach that action must be taken on fraternization, because it can poison morale through perceived or real favoritism. They also teach that it doesn't matter whether the fraternization is ACTUALLY occurring, you must act even if only the perception exists; the worst thing you can do is ignore the perception, or attack those that have it.

    Surprising that our leaders in DC don't understand this leadership concept.
