+xIsnt it refreshing to see a politician hold his supporters accountable, unlike the macabre alliance between antifa, blm and the Democrats? What a take. Hahaha. He only came out with all that because he had a good chance of being removed from office prior to him trying to pardon himself which, BTW, will be the next chapter of this lunacy.

The crazy thing is that the republicans are beholden to him thinking he is a positive for them.
Basically for the Dems Obama got a large turnout for his first term, he lost a bit in the second term, and Hillary trod water in 2016 all while the population grew 19 million. For the Republicans they increased their vote by slightly each time until Trump was elected.
Rough figures only
2008 304 Mill pop
D 69 Mill
R 60 Mill
2012 314 Mill pop
D 66 Mill
R 61 Mill
2016 323 Mill pop
D 66 Mill
R 63 Mill
Then after seeing his first term Trump added 11 million to the Republican vote and 15 million to the Democrat vote. (Probably more when you consider that the black vote fell away from Hillary and returned for Biden)
2020 331Mill pop
D 81Mill
R 74Mill

Lol at trump throwing his supporters under the bus. They were never anything more than a means for him to fulfil his sycophantic fantasy. Now that he realises it's over he cracks the whip at them for the first time in his presidency.

Now that he realises it's over he cracks the whip at them for the first time in his presidency. He didnt throw his supporters under the bus, just those who stormed the capitol and engaged in violence. Many other conservatives and Republicans also strongly condemned the violent actors and resolved to upheld the democratic values of America. It’s just a shame that Democrats and the left fail to do the same whenever violent leftists bash, abuse, harass, spit on regular people, destroy businesses and wilfully destroy public property. I guess that’s because one sides believes, perhaps naively, that those democratic values still exist, while the other side turfed them long ago.

And there it is.
Glad you agree
I reckon if Trump came up with a cure for cancer, the headlines would be "Trump fails to do anything about Aids".
The media just hate the guy no matter what.
You're excusing an attempted insurrection. What a fucking disgrace.
Left = peaceful protests 😍🥰😘💄💋🧜♀️🐶
Right = “attempted insurrection”
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Left - storming the streets
Right = storming the Capitol
Poor rusty has bene hiding for almost 2 months and this is what he came out of his hole to see.
It wasn't all just a bad dream.
Clean your shorts, you're a big boy.
It doesnt matter whether storming the streets or storming the capitol or storming the neighbours backyard, all violent mob rule should be condemned in no uncertain terms.
How about YOU follow your own advice, join all reasonable conservative voices that we have seen make heartening comments today and condemn what happened instead of engaging in your tired old "whatabbouthis whatabbouthat" schtick?
All I've seen from you so far is juvenile "I don't care" comments that you expect from a 12 year old whilst downplaying a literal attack on democratic processes as "people entering the capitol".
You expect everybody else to be held to some impeccable standard of impartiality yet you do the exact opposite in every comment you have posted in this forum for over a year now.
Thank you for acknowledging that "all reasonable conservative voices" have condemned what's happened, rather than playing it down and making excuses. If only "reasonable progressive voices" did the same in respect to Antifa and leftist anarchists murdering, bashing, harassing and spitting at Trump supporters, destroying thousands of businesses and setting cities alight, rather than playing it down and making excuses. Many ideological conservatives feel compelled by their conscience and beliefs around god and traditional values to call out bad behaviour when they see it, regardless of who's doing it. They long for a return to the pre Obama era, where things like free speech, respect for public property, law and order and free fair elections were accepted by all and taken for granted. Perhaps they feel that by turning their backs on Trump and joining the left in shaming Trump supporters, that the left, now with unfettered power, will soften their hearts and reciprocate the gesture, in a vain attempt to return to the old America. What they don't realise is that the left feels no compunction about betraying those old school values and in fact never really placed any stock in them in the first place, they were just a means to an end. So essentially its a twisted situation where you've two sides playing rugby against each other, one side is carrying knives, guns and knuckledusters, and the other has their bibles and bill of rights manuscripts.
The elections were 'free and fair'.
No they werent. Big tech colluded with big media and Democrats to prevent Trump supporters from sharing information that was potentially damaging to Biden. Maybe it wouldnt have made any difference, maybe it would have. We will never know. But what we do know is that big tech colluded with big media and Democrats to prevent Trump supporters from sharing information that was potentially damaging to Biden, rendering the election neither free nor fair.
Ok bud. Even Barr, one of Trump's biggest sycophants, contradicts you and your ilk.
What makes Trump so infallible is that his support base behaves exactly like a cult. Anybody, no matter how loyal to Trump, who strays from the official narrative or doctrine is immediately ex-communicated and banished from the church. Barr, Trump appointed judges, Trump appointed election watchdog officials, republican senators, govenors. The list is endless.
Locally, look at Andrew Bolt a darling of the right who did the right thing (no pun intended) for once and argued that there is no evidence of widespread fraud and has been receiving death threats as a result.
You could say the same of the left. If you stray from the doctrines of systemic racism, white privilege, white suprmacy, gender wage gap, BLM, non binary gender theory etc, you are called a racist, fascist, misogynist, white supremacist, homophobe etc. Except the consequences are much worse. Rather than being excommunicated from the leftist cult, you are excommunicated from society, your career and reputation destroyed.
Look at J.K Rowling, a darling of the left who did the right thing (no pun intended) for once and argued that people who menstruate cannot be men, and has been receiving death threats as a result.
I actually agree with you.
I guess the difference between you and me is I can see both sides of the story while you stick to just one side.
Oh yes you are a bastion of objectivity, fairness and impartiality 😂😂😂
Nobody can truly be that. We all have biases, prejudices and preconceived opinions about things. The battle we all have is trying not to get sucked too far into the left vs right / good vs evil discourse because real life is far more complex.
I think your post election absence and your snarky juvenile comments on this thread over the last 24 hrs are a sign that you are starting to realise that things are not a simple as right = good / left = bad. Id say you are in that last-ditch state of denial prior to acceptance of a more balanced world view.
Good luck mate :)
Hahahaha, not even close mate. A “more balanced world view” would be admitting to the following
- the mainstream media is dominated by left wing ideologues
- there is a horrendous double standard when it comes to how violent left wing protestors and violent right wing protestors are covered in the media and by politicians
- hate groups like antifa and BLM are enabled and even encouraged by mainstream media and politicians
- big tech colluded with big media and Democrats to deny Americans a free and fair election
- the left have crushed free speech and these institutions are no longer welcome in schools, universities and workplaces
- American democratic values have been eroded by cancel culture and the lefts reticence to stand up for friends and colleagues with different views
- Identity politics has been leveraged to divide Americans based on race, gender, culture etc for political opportunity
- systemic racism is a BS conspiracy theory
- the Russia collusion scandal was the greatest scam in the history of American politics
Some of those conditions above (including many more) is what gave rise to the Trump movement in the first place. The interesting thing is there has been no correction from the left, in fact they have swung harder to the left and with the wind in their sails they probably think that have a mandate to roll out their nutty agenda with no end in sight to their nuttiness. Today its packing the courts with progressives and adding new states, tomorrow its assigning two votes to black voters and jailing Trump voters. No even kidding.
I never said it was as simple as right = good, left = bad, but many on here and out there seem to have real difficulty admitting that anything the left is doing is a problem. They always hide behind Donald Trump, as if he is the manifestation of pure evil, and that anything the left does pales in comparison.
I don’t have a dog in the Trump V Biden fight, but this post is bang on. [/quote]Because Rusty lives in America, has in depth knowledge of their politics, a degree in political science and is an expert in first amendment rights across varying workplaces and institutions? I guess it’s hard to hear someone else’s perspective with your head half way up your ass. Best of luck to you.

A Police officer who was defending the capitol died today from injures he sustained after being hit in the head with a fire extinguisher. Thought I'd go back to and fire this "peaceful" comment just so everybody remembers you said this.

There are videos showing them letting them in/taking photos etc. But at the same time 5 people have died from this (so clearly violent and descended into rioting).

I post something, you say it's 'conspirational(sp?) crap', I link a source and a quote and then you sidestep the original post with some other rubbish. Take a leaf from Mark's post above. Has far more respect from the forum then you will ever have.

Because what do you do when you're seriously outnumbered? They're copping a lot of shit for letting them in and taking selfies etc but if you have no hope of holding them back maybe you're better off trying to minimise the damage.

+x+x+xAn unarmed protester has been shot by security forces at a peaceful protest, but I highly doubt the media reports will state this fact. A Police officer who was defending the capitol died today from injures he sustained after being hit in the head with a fire extinguisher. Thought I'd go back to and fire this "peaceful" comment just so everybody remembers you said this. Yeah, good call. I retract my statement about it being a peaceful protest. In the end, it pretty much ended up the same as a BLM or Antifa riot, although without the racism or fascism promoted by those groups. Police officers and citizens have been killed at BLM, antifa and leftard riots, and they were (under) reported in the media organisers, commentators and politicians as “mostly peaceful”, usually with a sympathetic tone. Its a clear double standard. When rioters stormed the capitol, the media and politicians (sadly including some republicans) used the actions of a few to tarnish all Trump supporters, the vast majority who were protesting peacefully and lawfully. However when BLM, antifa activists assaulted, harassed and spat on people, rioted, looted, stole millions in stock, destroyed thousands of businesses and set fires to public buildings, the media and politicians were very quick to defend the majority of protesters, and offer a tepid rebuke to the violent mob (after all they are fighting against racism and fascism arnet they?) Its a clear as day double standard. No one gives a shit when a Republican is a target of violence or a hate crime, or someones business burns to the ground, but god forbid should a few Trump supporters do the wrong thing and it will be plastered across the front pages of every leading newspaper in the world.

+x+x+x+x+x+xIsnt it refreshing to see a politician hold his supporters accountable, unlike the macabre alliance between antifa, blm and the Democrats? What a take. Hahaha. He only came out with all that because he had a good chance of being removed from office prior to him trying to pardon himself which, BTW, will be the next chapter of this lunacy. Conspirational crap. You sound like the kind of idiot who would fall for a Russian collusion hoax. 😄 https://www.smh.com.au/world/north-america/donald-trump-tweets-that-he-will-not-attend-joe-biden-s-inauguration-20210109-p56sto.htmlAides said the video was also meant to slow the mass exodus of staffers and ward off potential legal trouble for Trump once he leaves office; White House counsel Pat Cipollone has repeatedly warned the President that he could be deemed responsible for inciting Wednesday's violence. If a dog took a shit on the street they would accuse him of inciting public defecation. So this is how it works. I post something, you say it's 'conspirational(sp?) crap', I link a source and a quote and then you sidestep the original post with some other rubbish. Take a leaf from Mark's post above. Has far more respect from the forum then you will ever have. You didnt link a source, you just quoted a link from some bumfuck left wing rag, like SMH or, god forbid, wikipedia, as if carriers some of authority because its got (.com) in its title. For a link to be credible you need to quote from credible, independent sources, not news websites. Fucking loser.😂

Encouraged, cajoled, abetted and aided by Trump at his rally to storm the literal capitol of the republic (the first time in 152 years) is why it's the front page of every newspaper in the world.
