They lost seats in the House, lost seats in the Senate, lost governorships, lost seats in many states They were trounced yet Biden still won. Go figure.
Yep the general public had had enough of the self obsessed Twitter Twit!

Simple as that! :thumb
The facts do not really back that up Red, My understanding is he got 2 million more votes than 2016 , Having said that, if they have had a significantly higher turn out than 2016 then Biden is your man, I don't have any skin in this game but find it very interesting none the less, My gut tells me the supreme court is going to have the final say in this fiasco :beer

The 2020 elections marked the highest voter turnout in US history, with Biden capturing more than any candidate has ever recorded.

While just four years apart, the voting demographics differed in many ways between 2016 and 2020. Biden hoped to improve upon Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s performance in every way, and exit polls reveal he captured more young voters, more moderates, and more suburban voters, among other voting blocs.

My feeling is that mail ins are what put this election turnout above previous ones and this appears to be the contentious issue, And if the Dems dont take Senate their grand plans will be somewhat stymied,

""Republicans flipped at least eight seats, and that number may grow after additional votes are counted in New York and a recount in Iowa.""

I find this interesting, they turn out in record numbers for the general election but don't turn up in the same numbers for the house or the senate, Which the Dems need to have a clear run ?

Are Dem voters not the sharpest kids on the block ? One gets the feeling that many Americans don't understand how their electoral system works

He was ripped off, Was AOC hiding in that hole lol
Sorry, my weird sense of humour. I think that gif is very funny. :rofl

You have to admit though that Donald has acted unbecoming , like somebody who gets upset because he didn't "win" or get his own way. Not very mature, at all. Now I read that Donald is planning on running again in 2024 to "get back" at Biden. Geeze. Both are so OLD they may not even last that long. Being POTUS isn't like just playing golf every day. :nah

Actually, that gif reminds me of Monk who flounces out when he gets upset and vows all sorts of rubbish. :mrgreen:

There's no sense in giving up because people call you names and make memes. I'm not quitting until Trump does.
