Re: Presidential Election 2020
Goosey...it is running down your legs now and covering your shoes. Oh, I mean the shit that is streaming from your ears as you are so FULL OF SHIT you are over-flowing.
I know you are lost in your delusional world, so for everyone else, I will remind you that it has been Killary for FOUR years who continues to claim the 2016 election was stolen from her, and it has been the Dems for FOUR years declaring Trump an illegitimate president and it was they who concocted the whole fake "Russia collusion" story and continued to hammer how Russia has and does interfere in our elections. It is the Dems WHO DO CHEAT!!! that is not even in dispute, and yet Trump gets blamed for casting doubts on the election process? LOL.
Yeah, and the ULM Chickenhawks are in line for a NY6 bowl game!!! I mean, if you're gonna live in a delusional world, run with it!

Re: Presidential Election 2020
Trump has been a self-dealing cheat his whole life. That hasn’t changed nor will it ever.
He didn’t commit election fraud in 2016 and no one said he did. What he did, and continues to do, is use the power of the presidency (an office that represents the people and not the person) to enrich himself personally, trading geopolitical currency he holds in trust for Americans for his personal political gain over political opponents.
This abuse of power is a perversion of what democracy stands for, and this stain doesn’t wash off easily,
This is why Trump poses an existential threat to America and he continues to prove it every day.
76 million Americans (and growing) saw it for what it was.

Re: Presidential Election 2020
No one said he did!???? OMG! Only Killary, the Dems, the lamestream media...
Please tell us...so we can all enjoy a chuckle...exactly how Trump uses the office of POTUS to enrich himself personally, and please regale us with how he abuses power. It is Joe Biden who peddled influence as a VP...just imagine what he and his clan will do if he is P.
BTW, speaking of enriching, Trump has been offered $100 million for a book deal after he is no longer president. I think he should take it, when that time comes, and he should reveal everything about the swamp and then use that money to support opponents of his political enemies.

Russia in 2016. Ukraine in 2019. DOJ under Barr. Personal favors over America’s business. Business executives that work for shareholders understand how fiduciary duty works. Trump knows zero about ethics and has sought to avoid learning about it.

Are you seriously not even a little concerned about the firings that are taking place in the administration? About the DOJ (which has shown itself to operate in very partisan ways) being given the go ahead to open probes before the results are certified? About Pompeo (at best) joking about the smooth transition to the second Trump term?
In general, I say let him flail about...despite the Morning Consult poll, I think most Americans see this for what it is. But it is certainly concerning and any "both sides" position on this is disingenuous.

Re: Presidential Election 2020
And maybe that is the point that gets lost on small business owners.
In the case of small businesses the personal interests of the CEO/manager is often the same as the business itself because the owner is usually the manager.
That isn’t true in large companies. The personal interests of the CEO are not the same as the business. The CEO makes decision on what is in the best interest of the business over what is in his own self interest. Self dealing is a violation of duty and undermines trust with shareholders that is a cornerstone of the value of the company.
The role of the president is much more akin to the job of a CEO of a public corporation than a business where he and his family are the equity owners.

The fact that he did some things that were good doesn’t remotely offset the destruction he did. What America has is special, but it isn’t guaranteed. Attacking the credibility of elections purely for personal political gain is a dangerous wager to make and a gamble that others before Trump wouldn’t make.

There is enough "whistle blowers" that this needs to be looked into. If in the end, Biden wins, so be it. The integrity of the election process is all that keeps us from being a 3rd world country. This must be a priority, and I say this as a Trump voter, regardless of the outcome. This election cycle had things done that were NEVER done before. Many irregularities that took place. Changes to voting laws at last minute. Not validating signatures at all.. etc.

Trump has been trying to denigrate the integrity of our election process for months. Look at how quickly his cases are being thrown out. The outcome is not in question. He's doing this because he's erratic and he thinks it helps him save face. The Republicans who are going along with it are doing so because they don't want to lose Trump's voters. They don't believe there was widespread fraud. They don't believe anything on the level of determinitive has taken place. Most of his own administration officials know this is fruitless, they're just scared of the tweets of a spurned Trump.

They offered cash to find whistleblowers. That tends to draw out the crazies. The allegations have been largely debunked so far. This has always been a theory in search of facts sort of complaint.

He did a LOT of good things for this nation and for the free world. And I still don't see a single thing that warrants a tag of "destruction." Yeah, the Swampers cry foul because he smashed into them like a bulldozer, but I don't give a rat's ass about them and their self-serving gripes. These Swampers include career politicians, those that benefit from them, including some major corporations, and of course the libtard lamestream media. That whole bunch needs to be destroyed.
That said, yes, I agree, this country is bigger than any one person and I will support Trump's efforts to verify the election results...right up to the point when all legit efforts have been exhausted. At that point, he and everyone else needs to accept the outcome. I also believe...no, KNOW, that this country will survive whatever comes out of this. That which doesn't kill you...makes you stronger.

Re: Presidential Election 2020
Glad to hear that the GOP has won both NC and Alaska Senate seats...scoreboard is now 50-48 in favor of the good guys. My brother lives in Georgia and he tells me their two Senate seats are split geographically, which is strange. There is a Senate district 1 and a district 2, which is why they have concurrent Senate races. Senators represent their entire state, not half of it. Perhaps this is just an anomaly since one race is actually filling an empty seat. Anyway, based on the geography and political make-up of the district Kelly L. is running in, she is a lock to win it. That's what he said. The other seat, the one Perdue is running for, will be tight, down to the wire. But he did have the most votes and almost garnered 50% + 1 to have won it.
All we need is a split, but I want both for a 52-48 edge in the Senate. And, if Dem Joe Manchin is true to his word, his vote will be against any radical crap as well.

One thing I learned from being in WV for 9 years is that you cannot count on Manchin for anything. He will be easily coerced into voting with cryin Chuck and Nancy.

of course i'm concerned about trump being trump. that's why i couldn't vote for him despite the good things he has accomplished. like you said, let them flail about and let this play out. trump supporters are not generally the type to go along with a usurpation. they are generally in favor of the rule of law. if the challenges are treated fairly and dismissed, they will accept defeat. the only thing that has a chance of turning trump supporters violent is the current lack of transparency and suppression of information that serves as confirmation of all the conspiracy theories.

Not all anonymous sources are created equal. Given the high profile nature of this case, why would WaPo lie? It's the most falsifiable thing in the world. Regardless, you don't have to take it as the Gospel for it to be valid reporting.
I would say that your statement about Trump supporters not being the types to go along with usurpation doesn't jive with how he's handled himself as President. Sure, he shouts "Law and Order" all the time, then skirts the laws and disrupts the order. It's like crowing about being prolife and giving Planned Parenthood record federal funding. And, who's not being transparent? Who's suppressing information? I know that's a talking point on the right, but the evidence is scant.
If you're concerned about Trump (as I thought you were), you're not being insincere. The talking point that the President is simply utilizing the legal options at his disposal and this is not abnormal is insincere. His public statements are pouring gasoline on divides he help solidify. He's intentionally filing frivolous lawsuits in an effort to give longer life to the ridiculous conspiracy theories that have built his presidency. This has never happened in my lifetime and it's bad. Civil war bad? Of course not. Maintaining a stranglehold on the feckless GOP? Absolutely. Thankfully, you're starting to see folks like James Lankford say that enough is enough.

He will break bones contorting himself into some "I know you are but what am I" argument that insists Trump is an evil boogieman, but I have to believe he knows better.

i'm not repeating talking points of the right. i don't get their memos. i get most of my news from the onion and the babylon bee ;). i'm just observing. if it's all frivolous, then why does everyone on the left (including the big social media and news corporations) feel the need to suppress information? if i hear someone saying "move along -- nothing to see here" it makes me suspicious that there's something to see.
the way this is being treated by the media makes it less likely that it will end peacefully. that's my main point.

Re: Presidential Election 2020
Many videos coming out, all of which show voter fraud, ballot-fixing, ballot-box-stuffing, GD Dems blocking duly authorized GOP poll watchers from getting in, etc, etc, etc...none of these incidents are disputable, they all happened, and are probably still happening in places. There are reports, not in dispute, of dead people voting, one dead woman voted twice, there were some 300 votes in Nevada? I think it was, that have been thrown out...6,000 Trump votes switched to Biden, and only after Biden had a safe lead, were switched back. Ballots found in ditches...all marked for Trump. One case was 37 votes in...can't remember where now, but it happened. So on and so forth...
Now, probably, I will admit, none of this amounts to enough to change the outcome in most of the states...maybe Georgia and Wisconsin, maybe, but that would be it. But, the fact that Biden won and he did have the most votes and the most EC votes does NOT excuse all this voter fraud and cheating! Right? I ask the lefty leader here...Goosey, what say you? Don't you think anyone caught engaged in voter fraud should be punished? These cases usually, if history is any indicator, result in some minor slap on the wrist, maybe a $125 fine paid and a stern warning from some local judge "don't do this again!"
I can't see how anyone, Repub, Dem, Libertarian, Indy, No-Party...anyone, can condone voter fraud.
I say...put Louisiana in charge of national elections. We got our chit together here.

Re: Presidential Election 2020
I see no downside to the Trump campaign's legal challenges to some of the election results, in Penn., etc... No matter what "the truth" is it will be revealed. That might be:
1) there was some fraud, cheating, irregularities, questionable practices and hopefully it will all be revealed and then corrected for future elections
2) hopefully those guilty of outright fraud will be nailed, arrested and charged and those cases made known nationally, to serve as a deterrent to others
3) it will probably reveal some fraud but it was not enough to change the results...which will, at least, put to rest that Biden is indeed president-elect
4) and that will lead to a "healing" of some sorts and the country can move on.
In summary, I say just let the Trump campaign pursue this as far as they can, because in the end it will do more good than harm.

I think #3 is going to happen and I hope #4 will. But I think the potential downside to (at least) the way the Trump team is talking about the process is that it could prevent #4 from coming about. If you spend years saying 'the only way I lose is fraud" and then you lose, and you continue to claim it's only due to fraud, how is that not undermining the system? I think most people can take the comments for what they're worth, but I'm worried about others who have a harder time with reality.
And there is also the matter of the security transfer process needing to get going. Probably still some time before this is critical, but this is where baseless claims would be harmful. If you know it isn't going to change (and who knows what the man himself thinks, but I'm pretty sure many who are pushing for this stuff know better) then it's all just dirty politics (as if there was any other kind) and actually could present a security risk if you refuse to transfer in time.

I did poorly on my prediction (which was clearly tongue in cheek). Third party candidates and write-ins did way worse this go around. I found that interesting. I could be wrong, but I think in Texas the 5th place vote-getter from 2016 would have been third in 2020.

Yeah. I'd hate for baseless claims to pollute the next four years (hmmmm Russian collusion, Steele Dossier, Ukraine phone call, etc etc). Thank heaven Trump is not a POS like Hillary, Biden, Obama, Comey, Brennan and the rest of the idiot league.

Not a socialist, but I am a capitalist, the world over. A nationalist capitalist system would have very poor return on capital in the aggregate relative to one that seeks returns in the US.
Globalism helps your American Airlines, too, you realize.

Alright, after looking at the counts in multi-member-district chambers, it looks like the current net gain for Republicans in state legislative seats across the country is +136 seats from Democrats/Independents. 23 uncalled

Nope. Just an assumption because this "thing" (is that better than making an assumption) spent half the summer saying "bless your heart"....a known southern girl phrase. Males don't use that phrase.
Now you know the rest of the story.

You commie bastards can post whatever you wish. Doesn't change the facts of the case, thousands of witnesses who have signed affidavits, some of them Democrats, who have stepped up and put country over party. Good to know there are still some good Americans amongst the Dems.

Great school.. my son went there because Tech decided to do away with its Petroleum Engineering and Geology programs. Graduated from A&M with Honors.. At U of H working on his masters and doing research for NASA. If he doesn't go to work for NASA right away up graduating from UH, he may end up at MIT or Cal Tech for his doctorate. Both have expressed interest in his research and thesis.

Re: Presidential Election 2020
Sad to see an American President try to convince state lawmakers from giving their electoral college votes to the person that gets the most votes in the state. It is like he thinks this is Russia or something. Just more proof that this man should have never been trusted with the most powerful office in the world.

Re: Presidential Election 2020
My roommate was a Petroleum Engineering major, then changed to geology, and ended up working for some oil company for a while. Later he found he liked IT and earned another degree in CIS and is today a VP for some high tech company. Over the years I have met Tech grads who work in the O&G industry and often the topic of Tech dropping PE comes up. Usually people say Tech should have kept the program, even if it was tweaked in some way. I don't know enough about it to offer an opinion...so, anyone?

I had almost the identical path as your roommate. Back when Haynesville shale was going gangbusters, I reached out to the dean of Engineering at Tech to ask about reconstituting the Geology or PE programs due to all of the O&G activity in the area. He said that Tech was looking to have an "energy engineering" program which would not focus just on fossil fuels, but all types of energy. It sounded great when he pitched it to me, asked if I would be willing to be on a advisory board and I said yes. That was over 10 years ago, and I never heard anything back.

I seem to recall that two EC voters in Texas (?) and one in another state voted for Killary even though their states' EC votes should have gone to Trump 100%. Didn't change the outcome...was considered an "understandable protest vote..." or some such nonsense. They were lauded for it, of course, by the Libtards.
Yes, I recognize that a few malcontents is not the same as entire states not voting the way the popular vote went. But, those three should have been reamed by everyone...not lauded.

No they didn’t. The faithless electors in TX went to other Republican candidates. None of Trump’s went to Hillary and Hillary lost more faithless electors than Trump (her went mostly to Bernie).

Re: Presidential Election 2020
The fact that the President of the US would request officials to not faithfully carry out the vote is inexcusable and a dangerous precedent to start. The Republicans that won’t check him are spineless unprincipled scum that need to get thrown out of office as well.

BOR has also been known to play politics to keep the other schools (Not named LSU) "in their place". Example: Mid 80's USL had a very good "Software Engineering" program/degree. In fact in was one of the few in the country at the time, and was getting high praises. I believe the BOR took that program from USL and gave it to LSU. Saying something to the effect of "Thanks for getting this started, but you have taken this as far as you can go. LSU will take it from here".

Remember when she said this in her acknowledgment speech:
“Now, I could certainly bring a new case to keep this one contest alive, but I don’t want to hold public office if I need to scheme my way into the post. Because the title of Governor isn’t nearly as important as our shared title. Voters.”
Trump has shown he isn’t above scheming.

Once again....making sure the election was free and fair is NOT scheming.
Trump/Russia collusion was a scheme. It had no basis in reality except for a document created by a foreign actor for a politician guilty of weakening American security for the purpose of misleading the American public. That scheme ended with an abuse of power by the partisan hacks in the House of Representatives in an attempt to overthrow a sitting president ELECTED BY VOTERS.

I thought they lost their faith 4 years ago!
All of his lawyers quit? Does that mean Trump is presenting his own cases to the courts? Poor guy, if he was broke he'd at least get a public defender.

You are forgetting the fact the fact that the person Abrams was running against was actually running the election he was competing again and making it more difficult for black people to vote in Georgia. Huge difference. Biden owes Abrams a lot for the Georgia victory.

Re: Presidential Election 2020
Well, I had interesting afternoon, went to S'port in a SUV of 5 Dems, all of whom were fascinated with the fact I am a Trump supporter. And...their level of factual ignorance is incredible. If I didn't know better I would have thought they were just yanking my chain and purposely pretending to be clueless. But alas, 5 more examples of the libtard media "ignorance is bliss" phenomena. The discussion never got heated, and it was for the most part very civil. Basically since all 5 hold me in such high esteem they were perplexed how "an otherwise smart guy" could vote for Trump. I was swimming upstream though against 5 very ignorant souls brainwashed by CNN/MSNBC. They simply had their facts wrong and it's impossible to argue against that. But, at least everyone was polite.

Go to Newsmax and you can get the truth. Sidney Powell did not have a contract with the Trump Campaign. She is doing the investigation of the dominion voting machines on her own and has already filed lawsuits in Pennsylvania and Michigan. Lin Wood has filed a lawsuit in Georgia. Don't believe the crap on CNN.
