Raumdeuter, I said Lake is gonna take this.

I remember when she almost derailed her campaign by embracing the pro-choice abortion BS under fair looking at how the democrats were amplifying the abortion crap nobody cares about except for LordReed. She quickly walked back, and here she was. She went from at least 10% behind her opponent in the polls to leading. Thanks to their debate, she stood firm on the abortion issues and nailed her opponent on the border issue.
The guy running the election in Maricopa Stephen Richer does not like her. Katie Hobbs was the SoS and she run the elections when running for governor. He has a lawsuit against Lake for defamation over the 2022 elections.
He's been active on X regarding the polls. Yesterday he deleted his account.
The McCain republicans don't like Kari Lake by the way .
I don't know whether she will win.. All the same Republicana have a Senate majority and if there was foul play, the new administration will definitely act on it.
Maricopa county is still counting. Says it will take up to two weeks.

Trump lawyer minces no words.

Let me just say this to Big Tish James, the New York attorney general. I dare you. I dare you to try to continue your warfare against President Trump in his second term. Because listen here, sweetheart, we’re not messing around this time, and we will put your fat ass in prison for conspiracy against rights. And I promise you that. So think long and hard before you want to violate President Trump’s constitutional rights or any other American’s constitutional rights. It’s not going to happen again,” he said.

I cannot find my actual post where I was angry at him for attacking DeSantis and Musk, but this is what I found.

It seems like he listened to me and did a lot better, not perfect but very focused and controlled behavior.
Overall Trump like any other person who made his money cleanly ( whether he was jumpstarted or not is not here) is famously bombastic loudmouthed.
He does go overboard at the wrong times.
At the core he basically wants a return to the good old Murica that the left has considerably destroyed.

But, because it didn't fit your preconceived notion or what you thought the economy should be, you dismiss it out of hand.
So, who is the one being the absurd?

But, this goes back to my point about education and learning how to think.
You don't know how to think. You let your emotions dictate your logic.

Trump won this election not because of conditions on the ground but because propaganda and misinformation was allowed to spread on places like social media, where people like you lapped it up.
Now you have to ask yourself why people who know better like Elon Musk want you being stupid.

2004 - 121,069,054 votes cast
2008 - 129,446,839 votes cast
2012 - 126,849,299 votes cast
2016 - 128,838,342 votes cast
2020 - 155,507,476 votes cast👈
2024 - 142,995,077 votes cast so far


13 million voters less than 2020 . Where they went to? Despite media showing long lines claiming the turnout was the highest ever.
Kamala votes neared Obama and Hillary votes but Biden were through the roof and defying every statistic.


Next check bellweather counties. Every winner won a majority of bellweather states except 2020.

Bellweather counties are counties that almost always show who actually won the Presidential election.

OBAMA 2008
69,000,000 votes
Wins 873 Counties
Wins 18 of 19 Bellwether counties
Wins Florida, Ohio, and Iowa
Wins House seats
WINS ELECTION

TRUMP 2020
74,000,000 votes
Wins 2497 Counties
Wins 18 of 19 Bellwether counties
Wins Florida, Ohio, and Iowa
Wins House seats
LOSES ELECTION

BIDEN 2020
81,000,000 votes
Wins 477 Counties
*LOSES 11 of 19 Bellwether counties
LOSES Florida, Ohio, and Iowa
LOSES House seats
WINS ELECTION


* Some analysis say he lost 14 others 18


Another feature of the elections. Kamala Harris won in all states that don't have voter ID.

You enrolled in Nairaland University (the religious section) and learnt to use your brain.

Personally, that section is where everyone should start their Nairaland adventure.
I started there too before you had to recite the shahada to post on the subsection. I learnt that what's drummed into people from almost infancy is very hard to change.
I read tons of materials,watched hundreds of videos in my sojourn there.Then I found here when Obama was appeasing terrorists all around the world. My hatred of Obama is not out of jealousy it's because he allowed ISIS to grow by arming moderate jihadists who later joined ISIS . ISIS were genocidaires , they murdered Yazidis and enslaved their women. They wanted the same to the Kurds of Kobani,north west Syria and in Northern Iraq too.
Yes I started in the religious section too.

I was thinking about the how the electoral college actually does the opposite of what it was intended to do.

The Electoral College was created because the founders didn't trust the uneducated populace to make good decisions in electing leaders. So, they didn't trust a direct popular vote.

But what has effectively happened is that because of the compromises of how each state gets Electors (less Populous states getting more representation), the Electoral College has effectively given less educated people (Trump supporters) more representation and the ability to elect the President of the US.
Raum had answered you, you are trying spin yarn here.
Last I checked Trump was approaching 73 million votes to Kamala 68 million.

Yeah
But it remains to be seen if DA Fanny Willis in Fulton county, GA would continue her case against Trump. I bet there will be a lot of pressure on her to “in the interest of peace and conciliation” discontinue the case.

Moreover, the other factor to consider is Judge Merchan’s sentencing of Trump later this month. I highly doubt he would sentence Trump to prison though.
What's wrong with you. Fani Willis.
Fani will have to withdraw. She brought the charges with coordination from the WH and sham J6 Committee. She should never have charged anyone without first doing her own investigation of the theft that took place in Georgia 2020. Her cases are cover up for the blatant fraud .
Tell me in 2024 how many votes were counted in Fulton vs in 2020. How Fani , Kemp and Raffensburger explain that? If there was fraud Trump had the right to call that SoS and tell him to investigate the fraud, a fraud investigation report Trump had on his hands when he made the call. Further Fani should not have used that recording. Was a conference call recorded secretly by Jordan Fuschs , while she was in Florida; which requires consent of all parties before recording a call.The call was leaked to the media and fortunately the audio file was recovered from the recycle bin after being deleted.Such was the crookedness of Georgia officials
Her cases were to protect the steal that illegally hoisted Joe to the WH.
She will have her day I hope before a jury.
Merchan. He will have to withdraw. He must be shitting in his pants right now.Plus that Soros sponsored Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg.
Their coup failed.
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 3:46am On Nov 07, 2024
There has been suggestions that Biden and Clinton sabotaged Kamala.
Biden explicitly tied her in with all decisions and policies he took. On Afghanistan he stated she was the last person in the room with her when he made the call to giftTaliban with $80 billion of America weaponry and cash. A few days before elections he calls all Trump supporters garbage.
Bill Clinton not to be outdone said Trump economy was better just days before election and repeated it.

Hillary at one time was thought to be an apt replacement of Joe Biden. Joe was forced out by Pelosi, Schumer, Obama, George Clooney plus donors against his will, he endorsed Kamala while they wanted the DNC convention to elect... Maybe Hillary or Mitchell.

How about this MAGA dress Jill Biden wore to go vote on election day? Was it a fck you to Kamala puppeteers? .

Ijebos, don't take some things too seriously, you need to vent out at times. Think out of the box. We already know you are deficient , no need convincing us that you have some brains. You only have brawns.

Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 5:57pm On Nov 06, 2024
With 87% of the votes counted, Kamala has 66 million votes . Where are the other 15 million votes or so that Biden won?
My theory. Biden never got that amount. They printed ballots, obviously with some for Trump to make sure it appeared as legit votes. Then they double or triple counted them to give Joe a 7 million lead over Trump. My guess is that Joe got less than 60-65 million votes. I would like a breakdown of 2024 elections by county vis-a-vis the 2020. In areas where Joe was sure to win they could have just padded the numbers to make sure he won the popular vote massively.
This time RNC Lara Trump and Co were hawk eyed and had a large team of lawyers and election officials peering at the states where they massively rigged then. This time also, it was too big to rig
For instance https://baltimorepostexaminer.com/what-happened-to-jesse-morgan-trailer/2020/12/03
Details Jesse Morgan who drove a trailer load of marked ballots from a New York printer to Pennsylvania, they refused to investigate his testimony attesting to the possible fraud.

Anyway the democrats can now say that Trump won in 2020 thus they can't swear him for his third term😄😄😄.

Update. This link explains better , the missing ballots and attempts to estimate the extent of 2020 fraud.... 18 million or so.

Just days before the election, a new poll by one of America's most trusted pollsters has Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris leading her Republican rival Donald Trump by three points in deep-red Iowa.

I like this... excerpted. Ijebos. You could not see

For the past four years, hardworking Americans resented spending their 8-10-12-14-hour days — more if they have two jobs — working their butts off, only to have their taxes and food prices and gas prices and regulations raised, and crime off the charts, and for what?

To send upward of $175 billion to the Zelensky grifter in Ukraine so he can buy yet another villa and another yacht?

To send not millions, but billions of their hard-earned tax dollars to the murderous, Jew-hating, Israel-loathing jihadist mullahs in Iran so they can put their, ahem, leaders up in decadently luxurious hotels in Qatar?

And, since October 7, 2023, to send more than a billion dollars to the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians...you know, the cheerleaders of the serial murderers known as Hamas and Hezb’allah?

But as I said earlier part of me thought it was Necessary so it's not the worst news (sorry Liberals) for me.
I don't see how we break this fever until the most needy in the US see it with their own eyes and experience it fully.
Just as Nigerian needed Tinubu to break it's tribalism, America needs Trump this moment to break the endemic issues it has.
The question is, will people get it.

Working class people need to see who protects them and actually has their interests in hand.
Dems need to wake up and stop taking the high road, assuming Americans are smart enough to get it. They aren't.
Look at Ramdeuter, a Black man celebrating the election of a racist.

The pro EU incumbent won the election on Sunday.Third time she won ,,twice elections and a referendum. She used the same modus operandi.
Moldova has 800k overseas voters in Western Europe . They voted mail in. In Russia they have over 500,000. Only 15000 voted . The incumbent won again.
