    To be fair to him he is correct. He is entitled to recounts and to pursue legal challenges.

    However, he has a very uphill climb. Almost everyone else can see the reality that his chances of succeeding enough to win are virtually non existent.

    The right thing to do is for him to concede graciously. If not now, when all his avenues to challenge are definitively ended. But I don’t expect him to have the grace to do that.

    No, no. I think Dirty Donnie the Superspreader Swamp thing should fight this to the bitter end.

    Winter sports are very limited so the entertainment will relieve the suffering of all those folks who are self quarantined because of his incompetence as well as those who are sick and fighting for their lives against the Trump virus. With luck, just before the Super Bowl, we’ll get to see the Secret Service evict his ass and deliver him into the custody of New York State and our DA Cyrus Vance for prosecution...... or persecution. Whichever is more entertaining.

    Nope. Recounts are in order. We deserve to know the truth. If a transparent recount proves Harris won then so be it. But until then it aint settled.

    This is not true. It’s a nonsensical tale told to strike up the masses that the courts are going to laugh out of the court room.

    Huh? A fair chance to do what, the green new scam, amnesty, tax hikes, socialized healthcare? Really?

    We should turn the other cheek...because we are "better"?...because the leftist fascists will be ashamed and won't do what they've been doing for the last 4 years again?
    Because the best way to deal with a bully and a scumbag is to turn the other cheek and let them know that we are better than them? C'mon man.

    What I'm suggesting to those of us on the Right is that we should give Joe Biden the OPPORTUNITY to SHOW US what he really is going to do -- and not to prejudge him, or assume that he's automatically going to do this, or do that, or do something else. Nobody's 'campaign promises' mean much of a damn thing -- Left or Right!

    If we can't give Biden an honest, open, and fair opportunity to BE a "CEO" of America, then what does that make us...? We'd be no better than that gaggle of Democrats who launched the "Russia, Russia, Russia" fraud, the impeachment 'three-ring circus', and fought like mad dogs to hinder everything that Trump did with subterfuge, lies, distortions, and back-stage manipulation of everything that they could.

    When and if Joe Biden does something that makes sense, is fair to everyone, and shows that he has the best interests of the country as his aim, we should support him in that. And we should give him the 'benefit of the doubt' until or unless he proves to have broken his word, or engages in slimebag politics.

    Again, all I'm saying is GIVE JOE A CHANCE... and if he fuggs it up, then he fuggs it up, and we can fight against him 'hammer-and-tongs' in the next congressional election in two years. If you never give someone an open, honest CHANCE, then there will never be an opportunity to pull the country together... and in 2021, with all the other sh!t going on -- WE CAN'T AFFORD THAT!

    No

    He is going to leave before those indictments sitting in the SDNY are served

    I am having a small bet with myself that all of a sudden this thing about not bringing charges against a sitting president will change

    the rats are about to leave the ship and they will be charging down that gangplank

    Al Gore was in litigation for 37 days in 2000. What changed in the law since then that denies a sitting President that same opportunity? Trump is still the President today, in case you have forgotten.

    Trump supporters: "democrats are trying to ruin our country by not following tradition!"

    Trump supporters: "here's why Trump should not follow tradition and concede the election..."

    Yes. IF the recounts show he actually won. If he won legitimately you are absolutely right. Until that is determined there is no need to have this conversation.

    Did Al Gore concede during that entire 37 days of litigation in 2000?

    We won't be as bad as they are, they are mentally disturbed liberal fascists who believe their own lies, who slander smear lie non-stop, who throw temper tantrums the moment things don't go their way.

    Biden will be pushing a leftist agenda, he will be trying to cancel Trump's achievements, there is no doubt about that. We don't need to be as bad as the dems, we just need to demand the Republicans in congress to stand their ground and accept absolutely no compromise, no amnesty, no pork in relief package, not a penny, no tax hikes, no even slightly activist judges, no socialized healthcare, no nothing, nada.
    Biden must be made a lame duck on day 1 of his administration. Kamala must be made a lame duck on day 55 of Biden's administration :D No compromise.

    Everywhere a vote recount is deserved and legally authorized, it MUST take place. No question about that... I'm not suggesting that serious allegations about voting fraud should be ignored.

    BUT, after the challenges and charges have been answered, if there is not enough evidence to overturn the election result, we on the Right should definitely accept Joe Biden as our "CEO" of the United States and work together to make a better country.

    I'm a rock-solid, Right-wing Conservative -- especially on everything affecting the economy, and there is precious damned little in any Left-wing agenda that interests me at all -- BUT -- I don't want this country to even further divided while all this 'trench-warfare' bullshit rages on.

    Trump has no shot in court and everyone knows it. 2000 election was 1 state, but now we are talking about 3-4 states all colluding together to make him lose the election?

    If Trump wanted to find out a winner on election night, he should have let mail-in ballots be counted beforehand. GOP legislature didn't let counties prepare and now wants to cry foul.

    No it’s not. And it has been verified so many times. Rudy and the Trump campaign are lying. There were observers at every site. It’s a stone cold lie

    I’m not going to defend an action I abhorred in 2000. But I will comment that the Gore election and this one have no similarities.
