In NM all they ask is last name, first name and street address to check registration. Trump only lost by 51k votes, even in a somewhat unsecured voting state.

This was always going to be a red wave, anyone who thought otherwise was either low-IQ or didn't believe that Trump's team learned anything from 2020.

Hey all,
My boss recently had some of the walls painted blue in the office. When he finally saw what the contractor did he lost his ****. He was confused at first, then he started screaming at the contractor, then he reread the contract documents, and now he's in the fetal position under a desk crying. I don't understand it; this wall is a beautiful shade of blue. How do I make my boss feel better about it?

He is getting off easy. Should be tried for treason. There are still the NY issues.

Something needs to be done. They need to be reprimanded and made an example of so others don't pull that **** in the future.

I am extremely happy to have been proven wrong on this one.



It's important that we all remember a few things:

1: This election was not a landslide victory. The total vote count for Trump looks like it will have been lower in 2024 than it was in 2020, and the margins by which the GOP controls the Congress are also not massive.

2: There's going to be another election four years from now. And then another one after that.

3: Trump has made a lot of big promises over the past year. We the People have given him not just a mandate, but also the means to accomplish it with a majority in both houses on Congress. His record of campaign-promise-keeping from 2016-2020 was on the lower end of average for Presidents overall. Only time will tell how much he is actually able to deliver.




EDIT: forgot to attach the meme.



If you know, you know.

Reddit is, and for as long as I've been on it, a liberal cesspool. The sheer number of posts in the same vein as the rant Braineack posted is incredible. Posts like that are the norm, with many even worse.

Gloating is simple payback for the lies, insults and denigration.


Oh, and as a long time Gallup poll member, you may thank me for misleading the mass media as to how the vote would turn out.

The total vote count for Trump looks like it will have been lower in 2024 than it was in 2020, and the margins by which the GOP controls the Congress are also not massive. It was enough of a mandate for him to get done what he's proposed. More importantly, it's been the death knell for the MSM.

2: There's going to be another election four years from now. And then another one after that. If Kamala had won, it would have been a token election, just like Venezuela.

3: Trump has made a lot of big promises over the past year. We the People have given him not just a mandate, but also the means to accomplish it with a majority in both houses on Congress. His record of campaign-promise-keeping from 2016-2020 was on the lower end of average for Presidents overall. Only time will tell how much he is actually able to deliver. He delivered on EVERYTHING that the legislature allowed him to. As it turns out, Paul Ryan was his worst nemesis. In fact, it just came out that Paul Ryan had the fake Steele dossier before anyone. This time around Trump will be weeding out the baddies.
