Snowflakes offended .......


Trump’s delusional supporters will rage and scream no matter what — and Democrats should stop trying to make peace​

Snowflakes offended by hats



Even after the landslide defeat of Donald Trump, Republicans across the board continue to be terrified by Trump’s disciples. Fear of the Red Hats has always been one of the primary reasons why the rest of Trump’s party has refused to speak out against his ongoing horror show. It’s not the only reason, but it’s one of the more potent ones.

It’s fascinating to observe how thoroughly they’ve painted themselves into a corner. While leading Republicans are in love with Trump’s policies, not to mention the cover the Red Hats gave them to pass their agenda, they’re privately disgusted by the president’s total lack of personal restraint and constant self-sabotage.

In fact, Carl Bernstein wrote this week that 21 Senate Republicans have “privately expressed their disdain for Trump.” Underscore “privately.” Bernstein name-dropped Sens. Rob Portman, Lamar Alexander, Ben Sasse, Roy Blunt, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, John Cornyn, John Thune, Mitt Romney, Mike Braun, Todd Young, Tim Scott, Rick Scott, Marco Rubio, Chuck Grassley, Richard Burr, Pat Toomey, Martha McSally, Jerry Moran, Pat Roberts and Richard Shelby. Most of them have voted with Trump across the board, and only a few — Collins, Murkowski, Romney and Sasse, most notably — have dared to publicly criticize him. Why? Cowardice before the fury of the Red Hats.

The most prominent appointment President-elect Joe Biden has made for his new White House team is Chief of Staff Ron Klain — a long-time Biden adviser who went to Harvard Law School and won a prestigious Supreme Court clerkship.

The most prominent appointment he has made so far to his cabinet is Secretary of State-designate Antony Blinken — a long-time Biden adviser who went to Harvard as an undergraduate and then moved through decades of prestigious posts in the Washington foreign policy establishment.

Wait, you may wonder about this apparent Harvard focus, where is the diversity?!

Not to worry. The choice to lead the National Security Council, Jake Sullivan, is a previous Biden adviser who went to Yale, before winning a Rhodes scholarship. And there is still lots of speculation about a likely spot for Bruce Reed, a veteran Biden aide who went to Princeton, before winning a Rhodes scholarship. His choice for Treasury Secretary, Janet Yellen, is not a long-time Biden adviser but is someone he has known for years. She went to Brown and Yale.

The opening days of the transition have highlighted something that has been clear for years to anyone following Biden’s personnel preferences: He tends to have crushes on a couple of well-defined types.

One of those types is the Washington professional with impeccable credentials from elite institutions.

Dude, some of what you posted is a little confusing, especially that last part :)

But to try and answer your question, I don't think I would have an issue living in a blue state (well not too blue...) as long as the second amendment was upheld. Though if I had a choice I would pick a red over blue state. But then I think both the Rep and Dem parties are captured, it's just to what extent. RINOs are rife in the Rep party but have largely been silenced while Trump has been in office. Hope that answers your question.
Ah... ha ha.

Yes, ok. No probs. So, blue would be fine for you, as long as the 2nd amendment remained.

I wasn't expecting that from you. But, ok.

Let's see what greg0205 says.

By the same means they've been using to try to steal it now. Bombarding the courts with lawsuits, attempting to discard legitimate votes, claiming that there's vote fraud even if there's no evidence of it, intimidating electors. It's textbook stuff for wannabe dictators.


So what you and the Post are saying is that the courts aren't competent. That they won't be able to see it for what it is (like they have so far :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:). Either Trump's claims are legit or they're not, you can't steal an election through the courts unless the courts are bent or bought. When it suits you you say the courts are doing the right thing, but in the same breath you say that if it favoured Trump they would have got it wrong.

That's called double standards and is a very dangerous thing to say, just like Malema and co. do, either the courts are capable or they're not like in the case of an actual dictatorship. But then we've seen that is not the case because they have ruled against Trump. So in fact YOU are the one who is playing dictator by saying that unless they rule in Biden's favour they got it wrong.

Do you remember 4 years ago, what were the Democrats and their supporters screaming, Trump isn't the real president, Hillary actually won is what she said for 4 years, there was even doubts that they (I forget the process now) would put Trump in power, that they might switch to Hillary, just because they didn't like Trump. Didn't hear any claims about it back them from the Democrats and their supporters. I wonder why.

LOL I don't think he has any chance of winning in courts so that "miracle" I supposedly want, you are just talking complete nonsense as usual.

So going through the courts is eroding the constitution, wow that is a first. So should we do away with the courts then? I mean if all it takes is the word of someone like you and say Biden and co., why do we need the courts, right?

Yeah because the last 4 years of liberal/Democrat screeching and wailing that Trump and his supporters are demons and the devil in the flesh didn't fracture the USA at all :rolleyes: Look in the mirror, you liberals started the mud slinging and look where it got the US. Look in the mirror.

The false allegations of fraud is what is eroding the constitution.

They amount to sedition and are treasonous. For a sitting President to make such accusations is what is undermining the constitution.

The fact that the courts are acting as a goalkeeper for this BS, is ridiculous. This should not even have made it there. The GOP and his advisors should have stopped this BS.

How do YOU know they are false???

When did you, and the likes of you, decide what is constitutional or the facts in this instance?!

Do you see what you have done, you have set yourself as judge, jury and dictator. You don't know squat here in little ol' SA, but yet you say without hesitation what the outcome SHOULD BE. What a joke.

You point fingers at Trump yet you have set yourself up as the ultimate authority, to heck with the courts Trump doesn't have the right to ask the courts to check on the validity in certain states. The courts aren't for him, they're for other people, just not him. You have shown your colours and they are as red as the Chinese communist flag.

So you admit that Trump has been throwing baseless claims at the courts but it's fine because the courts are dismissing them, and this somehow means Trump isn't attempting to use the courts to steal the election?

I've always been intrigued as to the dynamics of red & blue. So, just for a bit of fun(and if you can be bothered):

Here's a question for each of you:

@SoldierMan :
If you lived in a US blue state, would you be willing to relocate to a red state, who's laws/policies remained red, permanently? So, iow, no crazy blue laws like slicing body-parts off or men running around in drag, or 6-year-olds being taught they have a right to choose their gender or those laws tolerant of lazy, nit-infested students who are too cool for school and prefer to sit and smoke dope all day without their parents giving a damn. Let's say you also knew the next blue potus would be another Hilary Clinton, or worse.

Would you go to the inconvenience of relocating? Which may entail leaving (Leftist)family behind, and moving jobs etc.

(* post hash of your reply, and wait for greg to do the same, before posting your reply)

@greg0205

So, iow, no crazy red laws based on religious beliefs about who you can and can't sleep with, or gun-nuts that need AR45's to go and buy bread at the local supermarket, or conspiracy nuts coming, worm-like, out of the woodwork. Let's say you also knew the next red potus would be another Trump, or worse.

Would you go to the inconvenience of relocating? Which may entail leaving (Rightwing)family behind, and moving jobs etc.

Throw into the scenario that you could if you changed your mind at any time move to an explicitly purple state, where it was accepted that on average you agree to live 50% of your life under your own preferred policies, be they blue or red.

Would you relocate, knowing you would no longer need to flip every 4, or 8 years?

p.s. * To make it slightly more interesting, hash your reply and post your hashes(waiting for the other one to do the same), before posting the actual reply.

Here is a text hashing facility: http://www.hashemall.com/ (leave default algo as SHA 160bit (SHA1))
Yup. I'd move.

Read SB's answer and the 2A means nothing to me... What is important to me 'tho is healthcare, and if you look at the majority of red states, they haven't expanded at all.

I'd want to be somewhere where they put up a fight against 'another Trump, or worse'.

Blue state with a blue state house, blue Governor and a blue AG thank you very much.

No Whataburgers in blue states, so it would have to be one with a Five Guys.

Oh my doner, you just don't get it. You're stuck in your little blue dictator bubble.

The ones that have been thrown out, they are false. We await the others. What is it about the rule of law and the sanctity of the courts that you don't understand. Why are you dictating to the courts what they must rule.

You talk a good game but when it doesn't suit you, you say to hell with the courts I know what is going on.

Again, that's what the courts are there for, so sort out matters like this, but you won't get it, so I don't know why I bother with you, because Trump doesn't deserve the use of the courts because the left media and Democrats have successfully brainwashed you into thinking that Trump is no better than a cockroach and deserves only to be crushed under heel and has no rights. Look in the mirror.

So they filed and lost 35 lawsuits with false accusations so far and you believe what? That they kept the "real" evidence for like lawsuit nr. 78 or something? :ROFL: :ROFL: :ROFL:
