    Because the burden of proof is on the one making the claim.

    I've answered that already. As soon as Trump no longer has major influence over the Republican party then those of us who oppose Trump can "get over" Trump.

    No, making a claim with no evidence is the lazy way of debating. All it requires is you make a claim. That's it. Nothing more. Nothing could be more lazy than that. I don't have to point out that there is anything "wrong" with their statement because the statement itself is neither wrong nor right if it hasn't been supported with evidence.

    Trump is done, unless he decides to run again in 2024. But should Desantis choose to also run I think many will choose him over Trump. Unless the MSM and you guys push us to vote for him just to spite ya. :)

    Don't feel bad, don't feel like you're the Lone Ranger. At times it seems that posters in denial here at PF exceed the number of posters in touch with reality. I learned years ago it's impossible to have adult conversations with folks in denial. :peace:

    You're not paying attention. By stating why the claim is wrong you present the person with a challenge to support it. If he doesn't then you "win" the "debate" by default.

    And if the link is just rejected because of the source? Is that legitimate debating?

    No Republicans, as far as I can tell, not even Trump, were making claims of fraud in 2018, when there was a blue wave. I certainly was not. I started questioning the results in 2020, when there was an astronomical implementation of mail-in balloting, which has a positive correlation with fraud, and historical models that predict the winner, such as the bellwether counties, suddenly became null and void, and it was taking days to find out who won. We still do not know, at the time of this writing, who won the House and Senate. This is absolutely insane!

    At least, I was waiting for this message long time, but I expected President Trump will be the first to announce it.
    Yes, there was the election fraud and we need to rise at least $250 millions to legally challenge this fraud.
    Please donate me as much money as you can!

    The problem is Trump was a consequential president with the rights instincts, but was not a nice guy. We prefer a killer who talks gently with a smile as he strangles us.
    Looking for father figures is the Achilles heel of America.

    This isn't hard. Trump incentivized progressive dipshits to vote out of hysteria and the sc ruling over abortion rights for women and Texas going full abortion ban were what ****ed us. This is fixable for 2024.

    I'm not interested in a candidate's personality since there's no doubt they all put on a show for voters. I still remember Carter tried to make the fact that he was a Christian a factor for voting for him. Any informed Christian is aware of the scripture referring to being aware of wolves in sheep clothing. It turned me off because I know millions of people act like Christians on Sunday, but you wouldn't know they were through the rest of the week.

    My point is is that I don't choose a candidate by their personality. I look at their policy positions knowing full well they may not deliver on their promises. But like an employee that doesn't do his/her job I'm not reluctant to fire them and look for replacements.

    Apparently not. As much as you would have liked it to be ... it just wasn't.
    Coulda, woulda, shoulda ... they didn't ... a.
    Really? The only voters caught cheating in 2020 were ... Republicans.
    Because AmeriCAN's, rightfully, aren't blaming Democrats; they realized that we now live in a global economy and as things go U.S. is doing much better than other countries in this economy. Also the effects of "inflation" haven't been as hard hitting in OUR economy of better than full employment.
    The red ripple, well, not really even a ripple, isn't that hard to understand, or a paradox. David Brooks (PBS), IMHO, nailed why the red wave didn't materialize in one sentence:

    "Voters chose the party the may be a little out of touch over the party That is completely out of it's mind".


    IMHO, after 7 years of tRaitor tRumps never ending Big Top Circus come to town, AmeriCAN's are tired of the Clown show and want to get back to sane, normal, government that's run on real facts AMERICA ...

    .... an America that they've come to realize IS GREAT after all. 8)

    That's why the polls failed.

    As long as you can provide evidence as to why the source is untrustworthy.

    Yes, the economy is the #1 issue, but we misjudged the most popular solution, more handouts from the government.
