There would have been a protest I’m sure and there would have been a trillion cops and it would have bend a standard dc protest. There was a million person protest when he won and there was no capital raid or White House attack. Hell if anything during the last dc protests the police lost their minds to clear a church so trump could hold a Bible.

So apparently a fire is worse than an attack on the capital. Also no comment on insane police escalation on that church thing

Omg your defending killing a man

You do not put your knee on a mans neck like that unless he got neck muscles poppin out like a body builder.

That is deadly af for 3 min dude how do u not see it and the cops they dont frickin care

Pouring water in domestic terrorists eyes. While trump he wants a photo shoot with a bible. Clear the block idc if their peaceful. Light em up

Did anybody get sprayed with rubber bullets or bean bags no cuz that woulda stopped em with some actual reinforcements. Poor cop getting smashed by trump's cult smah

Trump couldn't have that tho bs bs he wouldn't

I'm sick of this made my point

George coulda done it differently

That moves should be illegal by now under a president. Put ur knee on someone neck u should pay for It

40 arrested to 400 with less of a death ct

Double standard u cant see I'm not wasting anymore time on this bs

on contrary. what they should've done is throw his arse back into the cop car after he rolled out of it. but what i am saying is if george floyd had complied with the officers, he'd still be alive.

i guess since he didn't want to get into the car, the cops should've just uncuffed him, politely walked him back to his car, apologize since they were the ones in the wrong and went about their business. right?

it's gonna come to a point when a criminal says, "i ain't going to jail", and the only thing a cop can do is shrug it off and walk away.

i get man. i really do. 8 minutes on someone's neck is uncalled for and the cop should be accountable for it. but that doesn't mean ol' george wasn't a contributing factor to his own death. that's all i'm saying.

I think he is the best president ever. Not sure how you can say he is racist just because the fake news tells you he is racist. He helped get the lowest african american unemployment. That doesn't sound racist.

The BLM protests that caused billions of dollars were warranted? I know someone that watched people bring pallets of bricks and left them on the sidewalk and said they were for the protest. How can anybody support a political party that would want to destroy cities?

Trump was cheated. You can go watch videos of some of the counting where people are double scanning Biden votes and hiding Trump votes in their jeans.

I feel like you’re intelligent enough to tell me exactly why the weird voting issues are why the way that they are and why they might possibly be legit. I’ll listen with an open mind.

I can believe there’s been an influx of new voters for 2020 as compared to 2016. But I really don’t understand how an 800,000 lead in PA can be slowly flipped after a week of counting.

Trump was up 800,000ish votes that Tuesday.

That following Friday/Saturday, Biden is up 50,000ish votes.

This has already been explained ad nauseam to the point that if you still believe there were 10s of thousands of illegal votes, I don't suspect there is anything I can say here to dissuade you from that belief.

The "dumps" have been explained. The linear jumps in the graph have been explained. As I was watching it, I actually found all of that so absolutely expected that I was initially shocked that anyone would have a problem understanding what happened, particularly in states where votes aren't canvased ahead of time. It was even said before the election by people on both sides that the mail in votes would heavily favor Democrats, as mail in votes have for decades now. Political consultants on both sides also know that high voter turnout favors Democrats because that also has for quite some time. Knowing Democrats lose elections with lower turnout has been a campaign strategy consideration for both sides for decades.

Furthermore, the places Trump has been prattling on about - Detroit and Philly in particular - were DOWN for Biden. The surrounding suburban counties were who swung the vote, and Trump has been shedding white, college educated suburbanites for years. They more than made up for Bidens loses in the counties that Trump has been ironically ranting and raving about since the election.

Finally, it's not surprising turnout was high, though UFMatt is correct - 81 million people didn't vote for Biden. Where he is incorrect is assuming that they didn't vote against Trump. The majority of those votes were votes against Trump. Literally anyone could have run on the Democratic side and those people who have voted for him and her because they hate Trump that deeply. This election was a referendum on Trump more than it had anything to do with Biden. Biden's campaign platform was almost 100%, "If elected, I won't be Donald Trump."

It's interesting to me that many of you can recognize how deeply hated Trump was by a lot of this country but then don't seem to think that would motivate those seem people to come out in droves to get rid of him.

His disapproval rating at the time of the election was about 52%, and Biden won by close to 52% in the popular vote. I don't think that's coincidence.

There is fraud in every election. All it takes is one fraudulent vote for it to be true that there is fraud. No one is disagreeing that there wasn't a fraudulent vote here or there, but in an election where 10s of thousands of votes are needed to have changed the outcome, there is simply no evidence of any fraud committed to that extent. Even the senate's great flip-flopist Lindsey Graham had to admit that no one could show him a single vote, much less 10s of thousands, to back up the claims Trump's legal team was making.

So we have an election which went exactly as predicted by people on both sides, including the way the votes came in. And the exact population who everyone guessed would be the great swing - the population Democrats directly targeted by going with Biden in the first place, who is about as much of a progressive socialist as Richard Nixon - ended up being the great swing.

As for Georgia, what was funny to me was that it was ultimately irrelevant. Had it gone for Trump, he'd still have lost. And the only thing interesting about Georgia is that it's the only state where the black vote really did make a difference.

None of which will suffice to sway you, but since you asked, there it is.

I can understand and believe that mail in votes heavily favor democrats. But what I don’t understand is this:

If mail in voting has always been a thing, why wasn’t it more of a factor in 2016? Everyone knew who Trump was then. They got a year long preview during the primary.

And to think the support that Trump had all four years. All the rallies. All the people. And Biden goes out maybe once a month in a parking lot full of Jeeps honking their horns for a 10 minute speech. I couldn’t see it. Still can’t. Someone that barely campaigned. Gets 80+ million votes.

The only hate I saw for Trump was from the left and everyone else in DC. People in 2018 riding on his coattails to office only to “turn on him.”

And nearly all of the local and state elections heavily turned out for Republicans, some in blue states. But somehow Trump still loses. It’s just blows my mind.

Maybe he legitimately lost. Who knows...

I’m just honestly sick and tired of seeing politics thrown in my face every day.

Every day just turning on the news it’s gloom and doom and we’re all terrible people.

I just don’t watch the news anymore. It’s really not healthy.
