Don't forget there was the greatest voter turnout this year in history with the most low-energy, small-dick, zero-supporters, zero-enthusiasm candidate running along with a new, easily manipulated, zero-auditing, zero-validated, non-secure method of voting.

coincidence?

Are we still waiting on a few graveyards in GA to report, I'm assuming?

Almost like the delayed on purpose to figure out how many exact votes they needed to push Biden over the top.

almost.

and it could have been done, with the help of the $15 million grant from the Mark Zuckerberg-funded Center for Technology and Civic Life (CTCL) “safe elections” project given to Fulton, Cobb, and Gwinnett.

could.

So was it really referendum on Trump?

I think (which means, it is just my mere opinion) comparing absolute votes from one election to another is an exercise in futility.
You have to factor in voter turnout, which has several underlying factors:
A voter may feel very strongly about a candidate, and may get out and vote.
Another may feel a win is in the bag anyway, and does not bother leaving their couch on election day.
So, the number of voting individuals may vary from one year to another for various reasons.

Let's take a look at the numbers you have provided:

Trump:
2016: 62,984,828
2020: 72,460,799


9,425,971 more votes for him this year.

136,669,276 people voted in 2016, representing 59.2% of the eligible citizens.
As for this year, that number jumped to 158,831,694 - 165,000,000 (approximate, because too soon for an exact number), and the turnout was 66.4 - 72.1%.

The difference means 22.162.418 - 28.330.724 more people voted this time around. One would expect a candidate to increase their votes in a historically tight race such as the US Presidential election.



Things are the other way around for your Obama example:

Obama:
2008: 69,498,516
2012: 65,915,795

3,581,721 LESS votes


131,407,000 people voted in 2008. Turnout was 57.1%
In 2012, 129,235,000 people voted, with a turnout % of 54.9.

Meaning, 2.172.000 fewer people cast a ballot in 2012 compared to 2008.

Comparing numbers between elections would be meaningful only if the number of individuals casting a vote was the same in both cases.

that's my whole point...

No one actually likes Biden. Voters either hated Trump so much to vote for Biden for president and then party everything else (possible), or the results were somehow manipulated (also possible) ...

Hate could be a pretty strong word.
​​​​​​​You have to admit, a loudmouth orange guy who suggested we could just inject disinfectant in our bodies to combat Covid garnered a ton of disdain than anything else.

As I laid out in an earlier post that did not happen. If I was a conservative that hated Trump, I could still not vote for Biden. What that scenario would have lead to in a theoretical precinct is something like 80,000 votes for Trump, 100,000 votes for the congressional republican candidate, and 20,000 skewed for the libertarian or porn party for president, but that didn't happen.

I believe you're probably the product of public school education if you think there are citizens that voted Biden and that voted republican down ballot. That would be a lesbian that identifies as a bisexual female.

He didnt come up with that, and thats not what he said.
​​​​​
he was told that, and was talking about UV light.

He was posing a question and never suggested anything of the sort. Even politifact will back me up on this.
​​​​​​
Now you really do sound like a godless commie...


He also disrespected japan and dumped all the fish food right?

Please watch the first 48 seconds of this video.



He talks about UV light, then he asks about using the light inside a human body, and then he suggests the disinfectant injection.

Oh, I was called a Godless Commie - as an insult - for being an Atheist.
I liked it so much, it has been my user name on every interwebz thing since Al Gore invented it.
I find it rather disarming.

"Then I see the disinfectant... where it knocks it out in a minute, in one minute and is there a way we can do anything like that.. uhh... by "injection inside" or or almost a cleaning; because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs so it'll be interesting to check that so that, you're gonna have to use medical doctors but it sounds interesting to me..."

Let me guess, you interpreted that as "All you people should inject Lysol into your fucking veins ASAP"?

Bro he's talking to a specialist off-camera about discussions that they obviously had prior to the address, not directing Americans to do anything to their bodies you fucking nit-wit. :bowrofl:

If the election was 1yr ago who would have won? What has transpired since has been against the American citizens. biden is weak and harris has un-American views. It’s going to be a tough 4yrs if biden is elected. There will be many especially the retires that are going to pay dearly.

Agreed on all counts.

I was asking about when you said, in reference to Coronavirus being harmful to the chances of re-election of an incumbent US President, that "This was retaliation by china."

Specifically, I am curious to know in what way the Coronavirus was retaliation by China, and by what means you believe this retaliation was achieved.

Before you begin, let's hypothesize a motive? Does China give a shit who the President of the United States of America is?

If "yes", do you think they'd prefer Joe Biden or Donald Trump.

LeoNA 11-12-2020 07:57 PM

It’s plausible. What if it is true? They admitted they were the source by accident. If they did not admit it and say it was an accident it would have been an act of war. Have you been paying attention to the threats from China over the past 3-4yrs. They have threatened the US, Canada and Europe. Tariffs, hongkong, huawei sales, huawei cfo incarceration, sand islands. I guess no one was listening.

Plausible?

I'm asking you to describe for me:

1: The physical process by which the Government of China created a new virus, and then

2: Presupposing that this occurred, the decision-making process by which they reached the conclusion that releasing it domestically (within a Chinese city) rather than transporting it to the US and releasing it there, would be the most optimal strategy for influencing the 2020 US presidential election.

Ooh! Fun. Ummmmm....

1: Vilogists?

2: Maybe by mistake? Why are we assuming that domestic release was intentional in this super fun who-dunnit?

You need a description of the process to convince you that it could have potentially been on purpose? Your in denial and I don’t know how to argue with that, but your not alone. They don’t care about their people. They have plausible deniability if they have some infections. That is why they have the upper hand in this type warfare. Let me put this way. If the probability is relatively low this is still extremely important to consider because of how serious it is.

And yes without COVID there would be no biden presidency. Controlling this election with the coronavirus was just part of the motivation. The timing is a big factor.
