The republikkkans will sell democracy on a platter of gold to win.

The southern strategy worked in Virginia and it will work in Texas and Georgia next year.
The democrats should stop ignoring the GQP propaganda and call them out,I found it alarming that they won on lies and fears.
Maybe we can agree on this. Politics is dirty and the players wallow in the mud
The politicians criticize each other in public but hang out at night maskless if I may add.
Many Republicans did not want Trump and stabbed him aka Brutus style when they could.
I could start with Paul Ryan. with Trump having the three branches of govt Ryan refused to fund the big beautiful wall. Not that it would have kept out those illegal aliens But because it would have entrenched Trump. Who had a broom to sweep the DC swamp.

But you heard Trump shouting that Ted Cruz rigged the IOWA primaries when he lost and that if Hilary wins, she would have rigged

You are a sucker for a conman.
You only aim at Trump ignoring criminal actions by Dems. You should be neutral. Whats wrong is wrong
Was this a good thing for Harry Reid lying about Mitt Romney not paying taxes just before elections. Romney didnt win did he?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPYdNxYgxEA

Harry Reid, the Demonrat Senate leader then.
Who removed the 2/3 requirements for a judge confirmation hoping Obama would push through his leftist judges Until Killary did not win and Drumph was able to nominate conservative judges on paper( definitely not leftwing) .

You win today it was fair,you lose tomorrow it was rigged.

If the reverse becomes the case next year the election was rigged.

Are you normal?
I never heard Trump the New Yorker claim he was rigged in York or Commiefornia for instance. Where theres doubt you speak up.
Get the difference?

Murphy will most likely be reelected. The difference now is just about a thousand votes with 97% of the votes in and most of the outstanding 3% are from heavily leaning democrat counties with high population especially essex county. I think Murphy will end up winning unless there's a miracle of biblical porpotions.

Just checked the latest results and Murphy is now over 7000 votes ahead with more Democrat leaning districts outstanding. Yep, i think this one's in the bag for murphy.
They sure take longer to count less votes than other states. I get the feeling that some heavily democrat districts hold off declaring, waiting to know how manu votes are needed to win. Just my thoughts.

70 million low information voters pretty dumb folks that keep falling for fears and lies where as they don't get rewarded with actual working policies.

Where is the lie most policies Biden wants are gotten in almost every sane working country on earth even your beloved Israel has some progressive policies and paid family leave,Medicaid etc but how would you know this when your problem is only LGBTQ,guns and abortions while the world is moving forward and wants to tackle climate change low information voters in America about 70 million of them keep voting for a party that screws them over and have nothing to show for it except giving the wealthy tax cuts
Ill be happy to engage you in whatever I believe in.
For now please get it that Joe Biden regressive policies have fewer supporters.
You call a whole half of the country low information. Without getting personal How do you fare compared to them in all matters be it beauty, brains ot brawn?

Race played a factor in this Virginia was one of the last states in the south to end segregation.

Youngkin appealed to race if you follow his campaign he appealed to fears and made it seem like democrats were fighting whites and white voters saved him.

The election in Virginia was laced with race and America has a long way to go in combating it and yes they would say they elected a black woman lol we have Candace Owens and co in their midst.

Self hating blacks against their own interest anyway black voters helped McAuliffe that tells you all you need to know that black voters are a reliable democratic coalition that democrats should take seriously and save them by passing voting rights because the GQP policies in regards to voting rights targets blacks and hampers them from voting.
You really cant look at the mirror. Joe has lost popularity or he created ballots from thin air
Joe Biden wom by 10 percentage points 12 months ago.

Anyway there were three vote dumps. NYT live feed proves it
Three 300k vote dumps from 11 pm

And a constant. Biden 54% to Trump 45% throughout the election night.

A self hating black not all black folks are your friends or know their interest.
A woman who was endorsed by the NRA and campaigned lies that democrats want to take your guns.Lol, cheesy

A lieutenant is the equivalent of a deputy governor as the case is in Nigeria.In some states you run joint ticket or separate ticket because of the states constitution.

In Virginia governor's don't run for re-elections or consecutive terms also the ticket of governor is not joint it is separate so it is possible for the governor and deputy or in this case the lieutenant (second in command) to be from a different party.
Some states in America don't have deputy governor's an example is Arizona. It all boils down to the laws of that state
Why you lecture us on what should be the right thing.
She was endorsed by NRA? Hmm she's a white supremacist.

Alec Baldwin made a career hating on NRA and gun ownership. Had he been trained by the NRA he would not have killed one and injured another on set.
He would have never pointed the gun at anyone.
He would never have pulled the trigger before checking whether the gun was loaded despite being told the gun was cold.

I was watching Youngkin give a victory speech today and it feels like it was Trump giving the speech. The same policy. Tax cut, school choice, economy, security, vets, law enforcement etc.

this is a great win. NBC polls shows republicans are more trusted to run the country than Democrats on the most important issues. from, economy, to border etc. the writing is on the wall. I said biden was a gift and its a gift that keeps giving. the republicans should focus their message on the bother and other stuff. they should try to allign themselves more with folks like dave chappelle who can show the black community what the democrats are all about. Cancel culture and wokism
CNN tells em Republican dont have no policies.
Trump triggers them by have u missed me already?

Of course Republicans won't use issues like CRT to win forever, campaign issues change, just way they have framed CRT seems to be working for them, Democrats just need to have issues that will trump whatever Republicans are saying and you know this thing differs state by state anyway.
Democrat crazy policies like California.Theu have literally bankrupted truckers over emission standards. Over 100k companies out of business to please climate scientists.
Disrupting the busy xmas shopping.
And they want all trucks to be Electric by 2045.

Crazy leftists.

Democrats establishment will figure it out hopefully they need moderate candidates next year again these things are obvious to why Biden won.
Democrats are pushing for extremely far left policies bordering on marxism
To achieve the utopia of Karl Marx , they need absolute power and a population that's so brow beaten they accept anything. A population that depends largely on state largese.
Stalin starved Ukraine by confiscating all food grown saying he needed to break the peasants back.
Democrats are pushing for something similar.

Virginia is still a part of the old racist south.

Didn't you see that white women swung 15% to the GQP this time around
In 2020 the Virginian democrats dumped 300k , with nearly all going for Joe.Three times.
This nonsense about white women is a coverup for the obvious fraud that took place.

And thats the kraken.

Exactly I don't think some American electorates are intelligent enough to know what they are voting for they are not smart at all.

Youngkin ran on no policy but won some have even brought the race card to it but I don't even want to talk on that some said some Americans especially old white voters are sympathetic to racism.Youngkin won on that and white Americans some of them in Virginia and across America had no problem with that.

The only consolation for democrats is that they did well in Pennsylvania and some other local elections outside Virginia.
In your mind. He had no policy because the media you rely on is democrat PR department.

Its you who is stoopid.

Republicans won Virginia so no more election fraud and rigged results it only happens when they lose.

Republicans winning Virginia only happened because democrats failed to act and some American remedy for that is elect more republicans who broke the system in the first place to fix it.

Because democrats failed to be decisive and come forward on issues republicans won because the solution for these voters is vote back clueless republicans with no sane policies.


Congratulations Virginia.
Delusional. The poll watchers made sure there was no fraud.

NJ also has GOP with a very strong showing.
Ilhan Omar backed bill to replace police department defeated in MN too.
California seats have flipped to GOP too.

Get rid of fraud and the dem house of cards falls.

Dem policies are toxic. CRT, transgender policies top the list.

McAuliffe brought all big guns Obama Biden Clinton and yet Dems lose Lt Gov and AG statewide in Virginia.
The Virginia house of delegates also flipped to GOP. Dems had 55/100 now GOP has 51/100.

What I can deduce from this poll is that Virginians prefer a moderate Republican to a hard-right Tea Party person.
They are not really happy with Terry McAuliffe and most don't like Trump............I'd say for now.

No. You explaination of vaccine does not fit the definition of vaccine.


You said this




That's not how vaccine works. You are aware there are various kinds of vaccine.


All the bolded below clearly contradict your understanding of how vaccine works. If you were talking of the covid 19 vaccine specifically person for try understand

Vaccines prevent diseases that can be dangerous, or even deadly. Vaccines greatly reduce the risk of infection by working with the body’s natural defenses to safely develop immunity to disease. This fact sheet explains how the body fights infection and how vaccines work to protect people by producing immunity.
An old topic about CDC changing vaccine definition. emails from CDC .

CDC emails we obtained via the Freedom of

how the COVID-19 vaccines didn’t match the

I’m predicting the Republican will win tonight in Virginia. The momentum is with Youngkin, and McAuliffe has really struggled to excite his
