    It wasn’t hard seeing the outcome of the election simply by reading any political thread here by what should be a group of ‘rational’ educated conservatives. If an accomplished educated conservative wasn’t sprinting from Trump after the last 4 years they most likely were going to vote for him. If y’all were voting for him what do you think the average or below average person in America was going to do?

    Sure many said they were voting for Biden/third party but it was obvious most were coming home to Trumpism.

        Think about the average under 40 Democrat.

        Their candidate has won, via popular vote, every election save one since they were able to vote. Millions and millions more vote than the other candidate.

        I get the theory of the EC, but at what point does this person say fuck it, I’m tired of being governed by the minority? Where’s our version of Trump?

          I just said I don’t understand lots of things in life.

          Why are you being so dense?

            2 million mail in ballots in PA still need to be counted.

            If Biden ends up flipping AZ, what scenario can it be confidently called for him tonight without PA? if he wins MN, WI, and MI? Does that work? Someone do the math for me!

              No no no. He doesn't have everything figured out, he just knows what everyone is thinking.

                      Because you are upset you were wrong about the election?

                      Most likely you fear going to church/work with the knowledge that most people you respect and love have enabled a monster and you don’t know how to operate in that paradigm.

                        By the way, about time for me to remind everyone the electoral college is a relic and needs to be abolished. The fact that the nation is obsessing over a handful of states and not the popular vote is ridiculous.

                              Aren't there a bazillion mail in votes to count in Pennsylvania? Or are many of those already included?

                                Yeah, I think they have a lot to count still. That’s looking like the only hope right now.
                                "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf
