As I say, his moralising “I’m playing devils advocate” mask has slipped. He know his team is 4-1 down with five minutes to play and whilst it’s not over, he’s fucking gutted and is willing to blame the ref, the lino, var, FFP or whatever else to make himself feel better.
For the 100th time, I have repeatedly asked you to assume as fact that I am Trump himself.

So no need to wade in detective work here. Just argue the facts. Do Democrats partake in Voter Fraud, and Suppression? Of course they do. You'd have to be full not to know that. We still don't know for certain who won the Iowa caucus. We are still figuring how who won some primaries in New York. And so on and so forth.

It's funny, how I'm the one who's moralizing, but y'all are the ones trying to deny facts.

Stop being in denial. They both cheat profusely. Even if you are more against the kinda cheating that you believe Republicans commit. It still does not change the fact BOTH parties do it!!
 
Kamala's a funny one because her record as a senator is as progressive as it gets. She's rated by an independent body as one of the top 10 leftiest senators based on votes, even being more progressive than Bernie thanks to Sanders boycotting anything he doesn't like because it's not left enough.

But as attorney general she was not particularly progressive.

So this is one of those things where the Republicans tried to have their cake and eat it and sent a lot of mixed messaging and they've really not managed to dent any enthusiasm for Harris at all.
Hmmm, someone is at least paying some attention to detail. Mat I suggest you enlist a few others here?

I’m not sure anyone is in denial, your use of equivalence always makes me smile, thanks for that.

Which tv analysts?
I would say from what I’ve seen that it hasn’t seemed necessary to ask Biden that same question because he’s never intimated that he wouldn’t uphold the protocol of the democratic process.

There only one guy chipping away at a fair election and a fair outcome and he’s not hiding it anymore.

If you don believe that, that’s fair enough, you’re in the good company of some really great people in the staunch unmoved 40%.

If you watch videos from Msnbc, CNN and ABC news from the week she gave the advice, you'd find multiple TV heads, agreeing, supporting and explaining Hillary's point.

"Joe Biden should not concede under any circumstances, because I think this is going to drag out, and eventually I do believe he will win if we don't give an inch, and if we are as focused and relentless as the other side is"

"We've got to have a massive legal operation, I know the Biden campaign is working on that."

I couldn't find videos of the talking heads discussing Secretary Clinton's advice, but I'm sure someone better with search capabilities can.

If I were a moderator asking about the integrity of elections and willingness to concede, the bolded above would have struck me as a question worthy of asking the Vice President. While, yes correctly asking Trump a similar question based on his rhetoric about fraud.

I probably would also not dismiss a priori the President's claims of possible fraud. Rather I'd ask him for evidence, and suggest if he didn't have any or was unable to produce any why he was undermining democracy with unsubstantiated rhetoric.

But hey, that's just me. I suppose that just makes me Trump himself. Happy to be him
 
Sounds like an unequivocal yes to me.
Too right, all votes should be counted.
Slick, you say.
I’d say that if Trump hadn’t been so slippy and slimy about trying to disqualify such large swathes of votes he wouldn’t need to mention it.
I thought it was slick. The fact that so many don't actually speaks to how good that answer was. But I'll concede the point either way.

Whether it is slick or not is an opinion I suppose. And he did answer, Yes. So I concede the point.

Isn't that just because the early vote will be won by Biden, the votes counted on Election Day be won by Trump and the ones announced after be won by Biden?

Seems crazy to concede defeat if either are still in with a chance?

You’ll concede the point, it’s like comedy hour when you post at times, keep it up.

Well, I have no disagreement with the above. My point was that the issue of not conceding has been broached by both sides, so a moderator would probably do best to question both camps about it.

Some believe no one on the Democratic side side have considered not conceding.

That was my point.

I have no allegiance to positions, just the facts..if you show with evidence that I'm wrong, I'll concede. It's that simple.

Can't say the same for many here though. Any uncomfortable fact becomes an opportunity to attack your character... It's quite predictable.

But I'm here all night. Comedy hour.

And just for the record, this is all a side bar..

The main point of this whole discussion was the question who won the debate last night?

I think it was easily Pence. Its why all of Today's reporting focussed on the fly on Pence head, him being condescending (mind you no evidence was presented for how), and how he always talked past his time ( This was true). But I fail to see how that made Senator Harris the winner.

Anyway, there were 9 topics covered, which ones do folks think Harris won and with what points?
 
You really don’t know me.
Nope. I was simply taking you at your word of not being in denial. So I agreed and said, maybe not you, but perhaps others.

Unless you are suggesting if I knew you, I'd know you had the ability to know others were not being in denial?

I'm not sure that's a valid position.

That could wash without the :-) I’ll read your other response later when I stop laughing

Trump's & Pence's failure to save lives lost to Covid.
Trump's & Pence's failure to protect the environment from global warming or to recognize science.
Trump's racism.
Trump's lies.
Trump being a **** (OK, the last one wasn't explicitly on the debate agenda, just the sub-text all the way through.)

Fair enough. I'm not sure those were actual topics other than the 1st.
