    Trump says election far from over....
    Further proof that Trump is incapable of doing anything to benefit the country unless it benefits him personally too. All previous Presidential candidates have conceded in an honorable way. Trump breaks that tradition. But he fails to see how that helps heal the gulf every campaign creates in the nation. Frankly, he doesn't care. It's still all about him. It's this kind of total commitment to himself rather than the nation he's supposed to be serving, that convinced a majority of Americans to vote him out. Compare the truly positive, honorable, compassionate personality of Biden. The differences are astounding.

    As bad as Hitler, Nazi, Racsit, Russian spy? You want to actually go on record claiming Trump wasn’t called names far worse than ANYTHING he called anyone? He called people losers or idiots or nasty. That’s about it. Not even comparable.

    That would be most inconvenient for Mr. Trump.

    Why would you necessarily?

    Can I take it you supported Gores multiple trips to the courts and refusing to concede and holding up the results for 37 days?

    Is that Pennsylvania where all the ballots that came in after the election day deadline are illegal and should be discarded?

    That wouldn't matter if they were tossed.

    Biden would still Win.

    Did the lady who certified the vote in Florida work for one of the presidential candidates campaign?

    USPS failures exacerbated by Trump screwing with the post office in order to sabotage vote-by-mail.

    He's not angry. He's in denial.

    Would you mind answering a question for me? I understand why people from both sides wanted to watch the polls but I don't understand HOW that proves anything? Unless they had a mathematical genius at each location and for each party, how could anyone determine if ballots were in either party's favor as they were being fed into the machines? I guess I'm asking "What does poll watching accomplish?"

    I think we've had some poll volunteers on the forum, so I'd defer to them. I think that poll watchers only really watch for things like electioneering too close to the polls, etc. I don't think they actually get to look at individual ballots. There are poll challengers who (again, based on my limited knowledge) are able to look at individual ballots and challenge them if they think they were wrongly counted, but those are different from poll watchers. Poll watching, from what I understand, only accomplishes looking out for blatant polling law violations, like open electioneering or misconduct by poll workers.

    Thanks for your response. I believe the poll watchers you are talking about are different from the ones that I'm struggling to describe here. LOL

    I just read a post somewhere around here in which someone said that 200 republican poll watchers were allowed in despite the limit being 134. So, I'm envisioning workers trying to open a huge stack of envelopes and countless people are just milling about giving them the evil eye or something just as silly.

    While I’m too lazy to verify that statement, but I’m also not giving you the benefit of the doubt. Trump has been a very decisive president - most divisive president in my lifetime. He broke America to prevent his ego from breaking. And he isn’t done yet. The last two months will be the most painful as he goes “scorched earth” on America as the last thing he does before he leaves.

    She was Co-Chair of the State Bush campaign being a popular Republican official in the state, what's your point she followed Florida election law as set forth by the state legislature and protected their electoral votes. She didn't run any elections or any of the tallying of the results.

    Did the Gore campaign and Florida Supreme Court follow the rules of the election as set forth by the state legislature? Did the FSC show the SCOTUS where it derived this authority to change those rules as it was attempting to do?

    That dispute took 37 days, don't you think Trump should get the same amount of days?

    She had nothing to do with the tally yet she certified it? Seems unlikely

    What's my point lol??? It's a clear conflict of interest
