Like a Vance/Don Trump Jr administration. One could only hope. Don’t forget the last time the American public got rid of a really weak democratic president. It resulted in 12 years of Republican rule.Winning an election by 2% is not a "powerful expression of popular will". Neither is squeaking out a narrow majority in the legislature. Republicans are free to interpret their results however they wish, but if they choose to see it as a mandate to implement their full agenda, I think you may be in for a surprise come 2026.
it is a strange hope to want Don Jr anywhere near the Oval Office.Like a Vance/Don Trump Jr administration. One could only hope. Don’t forget the last time the American public got rid of a really weak democratic president. It resulted in 12 years of Republican rule.
Jimmy Carter part two is working right in front of our eyes.
Which, notably, included three successive actual landslide victories. If Reagan is your benchmark, Trump didn't exactly have the best showing, especially if his competition was truly as weak as you claim.Don’t forget the last time the American public got rid of a really weak democratic president.

Perhaps. Or perhaps not. We shall see.Jimmy Carter part two is working right in front of our eyes.
It does make one wonder if, perhaps, there were pro-Trump advocates throwing out Harris votes in certain jurisdictions, or some other form of shenanigans going on. In a close election, these things can make a difference.Had just 198,000 people voted differently in Wisconsin (29,600), Michigan (40,300), and Pennsylvania (128,000), VP Harris would have won the electoral vote. It was that close.
If no one is ever willing to investigate - because they like their system the way it is - of course there would be no evidence.I can not agree with you. Is is ca possibility -maybe - but there is n evidence of such.
We know that in reality President Trump won a landslide election. With 312 electoral college votes, with 2.93 million more in the popular vote - all seven swing states - The majority in the House - The Majority in the Senate.
That is undeniable, so what's a group to do? Admit a major defeat. And to their credit, there are some on the left who are doing just that.
But then there is this:
Trump’s win has been described as resounding. It was closer than you think
The vice president improved on Biden’s margins in some swing states, but Trump swept them allwww.independent.co.uk
A deeper look at the results in key states from the 2024 races shows just how close Harris could have made it to the presidency.Some have gone so far out of reality to take the votes that went to other candidates (RFK and others) and say that these votes that were not for Trump closes the gap between the popular vote.
But they were also not for Kamala - if you use the same method, Kamala lost by even greater.
The independent votes did not hurt one candidate and help the other - they are unassigned to either candidate.
So let's follow the math - and not make up things so the devastating loss doesn't seem as devastating.
Trump won the electoral college vote 312 to 226 - or 58% to 42%
Trump won the Popular vote 76,068,135 to Harris' 73,134,346 - a difference of 2,933,738
Republicans won the Senate - 53 to 47
Republicans won the House - 218 to 209
A complete Sweep of elections.
Can we agree to at least be intellectually honest?
I don't think it's entirely pointless - they're trying to build justification for going whole-hog on the Republican agenda.Pointless and dishonest bragging and self-aggrandizement.
Have you listened to him, or read anything he wrote? Or are you basing your knowledge on the propaganda machine regarded as legacy media.it is a strange hope to want Don Jr anywhere near the Oval Office.
Yes, and that is exactly why I don’t want to see him in government.Have you listened to him, or read anything he wrote? Or are you basing your knowledge on the propaganda machine regarded as legacy media.

Only Ironically.It's interesting to note that article was written in September 2021. Therefore, I am curious if the Democratic Party thought they had won a landslide victory in 2020?
The soon-to-be official electoral vote results for 2016 are projected to be 306-232. In other words, it’s an Electoral College landslide win for Trump.
4 years later, a 306-232 landslide for Biden.
Regretfully, when it comes to the cultural issues, you're probably right. Our society has slid down the slippery slope of moral indifference and repudiation of our foundational principles to the point where there's no going back now.Go ahead and gloat about your "landslide." Sooner or later it will dawn on you that you got the win because of real issues about the economy and immigration--not because the voters who put you over cared very much about the Great Replacement or about what bathroom people use. You got a mandate, but not a sweeping victory in the culture war. The Democrats failed to solve the real problems that we face as a nation. They were swept out of office and good riddance. Now it's up to you, and if you can't solve them you will be swept out just as fast, even if you do stop drag queens from reading to kids. Slaying the woke monster won't do it.
It was a landslide. No doubt about it.A 2% vote margin is not a landslide.
The recent Sri Lankan presidential election was a landslide - a 44% lead in the popular vote, and 159 of 196 parliamentary seats.
Shades of the highly dumb "largest audience to ever witness an inauguration" lie that kicked off Trump term 1. Pointless and dishonest bragging and self-aggrandizement.
Less than 50% of voters cast a vote for Trump and he will have only beat his opponent by 1.7 or 1.8% once all of the votes are counted. That's clearly not a landslide.It was a landslide. No doubt about it.
Don't spread lies. If you have any proof that illegal aliens voted, provide it. They can't vote in state or federal elections.If I am being honest - the difference in the Popular Vote is actually greater than we know - since Harris did so well in States that don't require voter ID and she flooded the country with illegal aliens so they could vote for her.
Accusation - not a lie - logical thought - if the states do not require ID how do they know if they are citizens?Don't spread lies. If you have any proof that illegal aliens voted, provide it. They can't vote in state or federal elections.
Can't prove a negative.Accusation - not a lie - logical thought - if the states do not require ID how do they know if they are citizens?
Prove it is a lie - what failsafe's do they have in place to confirm citizenship? answer - none
If a person can vote with no identification. How does one prevent an illegal alien from voting?Can't prove a negative.
He wrote that it happened. Prove it.
