When Trump won in 2015/16, there were a large number of right wing posters celebrating and crowing about "liberal tears" in that thread.

There were a few liberals criticizing him and his administration, despite the ridicule and scorn heaped upon them by the right wing.

Now Biden has won, those right wingers have disappeared. There are only three* of you: CaptainXarog, XarogFreeman and SoldierBoy still actively participating. Even "landslide" rietrot has seen the writing on the wall.

The remaining right wing support group consists of two clone accounts whose author lost contact with reality in about 2015, and SoldierBoy - who apparently thinks that losing is actually winning.

But the same small group of liberals are still here.

What does this dichotomy tell us about the consistency of the right wing? Are they tired of losing, repeatedly, or were they never actually invested in Trump and were only crowing and bloviating to "own the libruls"? I guess we will never know the solution to this mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in false-hearted cowardice and bully-boy mentality.



EDIT: * How did I forget DreamKing, a person who is further removed from reality than even Xarog? That makes four.

Fired Florida Data Scientist Launches A Coronavirus Dashboard Of Her Own

Rebekah Jones says she was fired after refusing to manipulate COVID-19 data. Her new portal is a reflection of how contentious coronavirus data has become amid battles over the states' reopening.

Was interested in examining how the right alternative media were covering this story, did a search for Rebekah Jones and see how many right-wing outlets are covering this story...

Just to confirm, I went to Breitbart, FoxNews, Zerohedge and Newsmax :sick:

Not a peep on any of these websites about the above, for people that are always bitching about certain things not being covered by the MSM, suppression of COVID stats would seem like something they would be concerned about... But I guess if you don't like the unpleasant facts of COVID and it's a republican governor it's no harm no foul.

Hawley urges Trump to veto Covid bill absent stimulus checks

If Trump rejects it, a new round of aid could be delayed until after Biden is sworn in.

Smart politics by Hawley. The direct payments were highly popular with the electorate.

He understands people are hurting from the covid-19 pandemic and associated lockdowns...the people need some financial relief!

Trump realised many of his working-class supporters are not as sold on the free market as many GOP establishment figures...hence his re-orientation of GOP economic orthodoxy was scary to many people.

Have long said Hawley is the closest GOP Senator who 'gets' what one might called 'Trumpism'...definitely someone to look out for as a future GOP presidential candidate.

Definition of seize | Dictionary.com

Seize definition, to take hold of suddenly or forcibly; grasp: to seize a weapon. See more.

The forensic audit constitutes a seizure insofar as it creates a legal right for someone aside from the owner to exercise control over the property. It does not necessarily imply that the property has to be moved, that is just a practical consideration to prevent the possibility of tampering or some other extra-legal response.

The custody of the machines remained in the hands of the county, and was not given over to law enforcement or the external auditors. The auditors were granted access to the machines which is different from being given control of the machines. It can be said that the data obtained from the machines can be considered to have been seized.
I'm not a lawyer, so I'm willing to be corrected on this.
