Will the left be classy or will they bathe in right wing misery?


However, the Edison poll showed that support for Trump rose among African Americans, Asians, and Latinos. In particular, 18 percent of black men voted for Trump in 2020 compared with 13 percent in 2016, and black women increased support for Trump from 4 percent in 2016 to 8 percent in 2020. Trump also roughly doubled his share of gay voters.

It appears that support among Latinos buoyed Trump victories in several key counties in the Sun Belt. Trump was able to score a win in Zapata County, Texas, by 52-to-47 percent over Joe Biden. The county’s population is 94.7 percent Hispanic, and elected Hillary Clinton over Trump in 2016 by 65-32 percent.

Additionally, Latino voters in Miami-Dade County, Fla., helped propel Trump to victory in that crucial swing state.


However, that's exit polling which is likely to actually be lower than what Trump received because these would only be those who openly admit to supporting Trump, and there will be more who would keep that private so they don't run the chance of becoming a target for leftist violence. Same reason why the polls where so wrong in general.
Its 12% black. Pretty standard. Here is the poll

 
So far it seems they're not as bad as the right was when Hillary lost, but I definitely sense a bit of sadistic joy at the expense of Trump supporters.

If it worked for Trump/Mitch/GOP then why shouldn't the Democrats so it, or are there different rules for other people than there are for Republicans and conservatives?

The reasons for why you shouldn't act like them should be obvious. Why decide how worthy your behavior will be based on their example? I can't think of a worse way to do it.
 
**** ‘em and feed ‘em beans!

Why was it OK for the Republicans to act this way if they didn't want an equal payback, or are there different rules for the behavior of others? I hate hypocrites.

Some will give them the same gloating that they received for the repubs I’m sure.
 
Yeah...none of that is really true. Trump lost because we are suffering from a once in a 100 year global pandemic. No COVID Trump crushes Biden in a walk off.
The facts don’t care what you think, Fishking.

Trump lost because Americans across the political spectrum want him gone.

If that wasn’t the case, Trump would’ve won.

Try using a little common sense before posting.

* FYI, Trump’s absolute failure to manage the current crisis, coupled with the fact that he has actually made the experts jobs much harder due to his many lies, is most definitely a significant part of the reasoning for Americans, across the political spectrum, voting his sorry fat ass out.

Deal with or not, I don’t give shit.

You really don't get it do you? It's not about them. We shouldn't be worthy for them. We should do it for us.

Trump is kicking and screaming like a spoiled child, while his followers are on the verge of threatening civil war.

And we should be worried about Biden voters gloating? Over barely eking out a win, and not securing the Senate? :oops:

What I said was 100% spot on as the economy was skyrocketing in so many ways. No COVID, Trump wins easy. Nothing you say will change that because it's reality. The fact that he still has a chance of winning despite having a once in a 100 year global pandemic is all the proof that is needed.
 
Now that the right-wing has stacked the courts for a generation and had their way with the back-end of America for the past four years, it's time for everyone to meet in the middle and compromise. The middle being somewhere between Biden, a center-right Democrat, and Trump.

:rolleyes:
You had my attention all the way up to the point you brought Trump’s name in.

Trumpism has been destructive to American values, unity, and standing among our allies, and should never be considered as compromised “middle ground”. Ever.
 
Congratulations. You just made Dex's point stronger.

If his point is "you shouldn't care about a couple randos on twitter" then yes, I did, because I completely agree. As I've said repeatedly, you can find some vile shitheads spewing garbage on literally any topic. Normal people don't care that Sk4terDude6969 thinks Nancy Pelosi should be launched into the Sun.

But we constantly see randos on twitter brought up as proof of what THE LEFT thinks.

"The economy" was not "skyrocketing" for real Americans. Again I must point out: the stock market is not the economy. (and unemployment numbers alone don't give you even a tenth of the picture)

I'm not talking about the stock market. Nice try though.

I am aware that the left isn't a hive mind. Those people still are part of the left though, and we should look down on that kind of behavior consistently regardless of which field it flies out of.

So...nothing RaleBulgarian says will change your OPINION, huh?

Gee...that's not surprising. The only surprise here is that you think your uninformed opinions are tantamount to "the facts".

Unfortunately, your OPINION is an ignorant one, Fishking.

  • -First, the economy was NOT "skyrocketing" before Trump bungled the COVID pandemic. It was solid, though. But it was, in FACT, essentially the SAME economy that Trump inherited from Obama in 2017. Almost EVERY major economic indicator/trend under Obama....LITERALLY continued along the SAME upward trajectory under Trump. From job growth....to UE....to GDP....etc. Manufactoring actually went DOWN. And only the stock market showed some improvement (before COVID). Overall, by almost every major indicator, the economy under Obama outperformed Trump's economy.
  • -Trump's approval/disapproval and job performance numbers PRE/POST COVID....remained almost unchanged. So your OPINION that Trump "wins easy" but for COVID....is just an ignorant one that you know you can't back up.
 
Bathing in Right Wing misery is the new fountain of youth.

No, because it's not an opinion. Again, this is demonstrated by the fact that COVID happened and *still* Trump might pull it off. It's not too likely now but it's not a closed door yet. The fact that it's this close, right now, is all the proof there needs to be.

Btw, the economy was doing amazing on many important levels and we decided to destroy it for a virus that has a 99.98% mortality rate.

So, clearly, you're another one of those rightwingers who can't differentiate his feelings from objective facts.

:ROFLMAO:....again, this is called an OPINION, Fishking.

You must be a sales guy, huh? Or, perhaps you work with your hands? No worries, either way. But certainly, you're not a science guy.

The FACTS here are:
  • -the economy was NOT "skyrocketing", as you claimed. That was your OPINION.
  • -"No COVID, Trump wins easily", as you claimed...is an OPINION.
  • -Trump is about to lose this election by about 5 MILLION votes, after losing the last one by 3 MILLION votes. He remains relevant in this race (even if only statistically) only because a relic/tribute to white nationalism and the institution of chattel slavery (i.e. the Electoral College).
  • -Trump is the only president in history to NEVER reach 50% approval rating, and will soon become the only one to have run and lost the popular national vote TWICE.

Btw, the economy was doing amazing on many important levels

No, it really wasn't. In fact, by most standards, the economy performed markedly better over Obama's last 3.5 years, than during Trump's 3.5 years.

...and we decided to destroy it for a virus that has a 99.98% mortality rate.

You don't understand what you're saying here. But I'll just tell you that the mortality rate for COVID-19 is closer to 2% than 0.02%. And if left to the whims of the anti-science, pro-Trump crowd, the death toll would reach into the millions. 2% of 350 Million = 7 Million dead Americans. That's no "hoax", and that's not "hype".
 
I'll have another Right Wing Whine please, Barkeep.

To begin with Biden has won yet. The left did nothing but try to remove Trump for 4 years by nefarious means so please don't act as if the democrats were patriots and good losers who believed in peaceful transfer of power. LOL! What a joke the democrats are.
 
What a sad outlook. Being better than them is the point.
Democrats eagerly race to the bottom. Expecting otherwise is just a set up for disappointment.
 
What I said is true. True strength is rising above that stuff.

So is Trump "rising above this" now? Is his supporters? Nope on all accounts. Or did you miss Trump and his baseless counts of fraud?
