under the direction of Dead Hugo Chavez and Dead Fidel Castro. Nobody actually voted for Biden; everybody voted for Trump and he won all 50 states!

After Dominion gets their billions from Rudy they may come after you.
Of course, you could always say that you were "just kidding" - and it probably would work.
After all, tRump used that excuse many times.

She is so patient. They bowed and scraped to IMPOTUS II's lying liars but, oh, here's a sane, skilled, honest press secretary so let's ask her over and over why Biden hasn't solved everything yet? One of them actually said, "it's been 6 days," like that's a long time.

She replied, "it's been 6 days."

George H.W. Bush: Bush lost reelection to Bill Clinton in 1992. A video of Bush conceding defeat, saying “The people have spoken,” has resurfaced on social media over the past week. The two former opponents famously became friends before Bush’s death in 2018.

Jimmy Carter: In 1980, Ronald Reagan defeated incumbent Democrat Carter for the presidency during the Iranian hostage crisis.

Gerald Ford: Carter beat Ford four years earlier in 1976. Ford had replaced Nixon, who resigned from office, and was never elected.

Herbert Hoover: Franklin D. Roosevelt easily defeated Hoover by more than 7 million votes in 1932 as The Great Depression gripped the country.

William Howard Taft: He lost reelection when Theodore Roosevelt ran for president again as a third-party candidate in 1912. Taft and Roosevelt split the vote and Woodrow Wilson won. Taft went on to become a U.S. Supreme Court justice.

Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison: This pair ruined each other’s reelection chances. In 1888, Cleveland lost reelection to Harrison. Four years later, Cleveland returned to the presidency after defeating Harrison.

Martin Van Buren: In 1840, Van Buren lost in an Electoral College landslide to William Henry Harrison. Harrison had 240 electoral votes to Van Buren’s 60.

John Quincy Adams: The House of Representative elected Adams after Andrew Jackson won the popular vote but didn’t get enough electoral votes for victory in 1824. Jackson easily defeated Adams four years later.

John Adams: In 1800, John Adams lost reelection to Thomas Jefferson. He left Washington, D.C., “under cover of darkness,” marking the first peaceful transfer of power and setting precedent for presidents to come, according to History.com.

It was easy for me to vote. Lots of people had to fight long lines, weather, the pandemic, closed polls, stupid signature laws, and more.

The radical Republican party is the biggest threat to our democracy ever.

Joe knows. So do Nancy and Chuck. HR-1 that Moscow Mitch sat on -will- return.
