Trump suggests proper raking might have spared California from its wildfires

I mean for real...how hard is it to accumulate the vote count for each State regarding the Senate and each district regarding the House?

Look at Trumps propaganda State news site https://www.foxnews.com/midterms-2018

Then compare to NY Times https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/11/06/us/elections/results-senate-elections.html

When looking at each state the numbers are identical....NY Times just added it all up and Faux did not....Sorry for your loss.
In the game of life, as losses go, this was a mild one for a new president. If your fake news sources don't inform you of that, well, it's your loss.

With the clean up of the rolls in many states, probably be a lot less dead/moved/illegal voting next election. Add to that we will staunch the incoming at the border so less chance of the illegal immigrant votes. Brenda Snipes will not be in Broward County to somehow mysteriously create new ballots [ and probably mysteriously "lost", speaking of losing, Republican ballots ] after the elections for days on end. Hopefully, she will be in jail for all the stunts she and dem operatives committed this last and previous elections.

Your team is naughty naughty when it comes to vote collection and suppression. There needs be a full investigation of the massive irregularities in Broward... and probably other Dem, and maybe even a few Republican, election supervisory stations across the country.

It's time to clean things up. The economy is firing on all cyls, we have divided legislature so not much going to get done unless the Dems decide to put country ahead of party... so time to concentrate on rooting out the bad rot allowed to accumulate under every admin and disadmin since at least Reagan.

Dem victory in just the house was limited to over half of what slenderman lost the first midterm. We still have the majority of governorships, almost twice as many trifectas [where we control all executive and legislative state governent] as you folks...but you folks made a few gains after slendermans misadministration led to mass retreat and loss of state seats.

And we went UP in the Senate. Means more good constitutional judges, no doubt another Supreme as RBG is looking like she is feeling her age. All good things for our side where we already hold the 5-4.

Yeah, as elections go, slightly disappointing, but its the reality. You don't always get what you want, but we got what we need.

Slightly good for you folks, slightly bad for the country as a whole. In general tho, the adults have control still.

Btw...

When confirmed with other more credible sources, fake news once in a while reporting correctly might be utilized.

Generally speaking, and without corroboration, NOPE. Not since they blew, continue to blow their credibility.
 
Dumbest. President. Ever. I mean at least in his smaller press conferences he could speak. Now it's just baseless rambling.



The above quote was completely made up by the President of the United States. Nothing in that statement is true.

Trump suggests proper raking might have spared California from its wildfires


"Heavy machinery “rakes” Finland’s forest floors after tree cutting, greatly reducing fire risks

... The “confusion” over what President Trump said unfortunately came initially from the Finnish side, as even our media thought “raking” meant only light removal of leaves, pine cones and other debris from forest floors. Even Finnish president Sauli Niinistö did not understand that the practice really involves “raking” with heavy machinery that removes extensive amounts of combustible material. Mr. Niinistö simply told Mr. Trump he could rely on advice from Finland to prevent catastrophic wildfires.

In Finland, after clear-cutting a forest area, crews use heavy machinery (similar to what is used in this video) to “rake” or gather tree harvesting residues, tree roots and other material into huge piles. The biomass is then chipped onsite after it has dried up sufficiently, and chips are hauled to local heat-producing plants to generate warmth for local residents.

A college drop-out website? Silly!

Silly to not have read who wrote that article:

"Mikko Paunio of Helsinki, Finland is a science and policy adviser of the American Council on Science and Health. He has served with numerous national and international climate adaptation working groups."
