Yeah insurrections trigger me as well. I'm funny like that.
Most voters approve of Trump’s handling of presidential transition: Poll
- Thread starter NorthernHawkeye
- Start date
Yeah insurrections trigger me as well. I'm funny like that.
What does that even mean? What would being "left behind" look like anyway? All of the MAGAs are going to ascend to the proverbial greatness?
Posts like these will be fun over the next four years.
I don’t understand how you can be this misguided in today's age. You actively chose to ignore Trump’s faults and criminality.

I don't, and never have, liked Gaetz. Hegseth I'm sure has flaws. Don't we all? Clinton had plenty. I assume you liked him just fine. I don't think his story and Hegseth's are that much different. Well minus one thing that is.
Hegseth for SecDef. Time to get rid of the woke generals and get back to fighting wars not using the military to socially engineer.
Whats funny is that your party lost the election. House, Senate, PV, EV, SCOTUS. I guess most Americans, like actually, dont believe the narrative your side pushes.
Welcome to irrelevance bro. Its here. You hate it. Cry more.
Yeah it is funny. The next four years will be hilarious.
"Most Americans".... lol.
Yes, your side's narratives are all gold now suddenly. You realize that Trump has to actually execute on his promises now, right? You guys act like he's already succeeded.
He has already succeeded. He has defeated Liberalism.
Soon we will have a secure border, a rebuilding refocused military, peace in Ukraine and the Middle East.
Yes most Americans. 76M to 74M. You're not too good at math huh?
Rep flipped 6 Democrat states from 2020. Dems flipped zero. 312:226.
How is that not a majority? Or has this election triggered a schizophrenic break from reality?
So owned by the libs is all you really care about. Lame. I guess all the inflation and border talk was just that. Talk.
US population - 334.9 million
Trump Voters - 76 million
"Most Americans"
Not too gud at the maths. Especially when using the wrong numbers.
Liberals are still here and aren't going anywhere. 76m vs 74m and you guys act like everyone is on your side.
Let me know when the border is secured and we have peace in the middle east and Ukraine. Don't forget grocery prices coming down. That's another big win for Trump already.
Did I say anything about a majority?
No. Liberal policies are why we are where we are.
Come on, admit it, Bidens handling of the border was an unforced error. That issue alone probably cost Harris the election. All he had to do was continue the policies Trump started and he probably would have handed Harris a win. Yet, he didn't.
Hillary won by more than Trump did. Just saying. You argument doesn't hold up to scrutiny.
Trump ran on inflation and the border. But he still doesn't have real plans for either. Isn't it kinda late in the game for just having "concepts?"
So, you are assuming that those that didnt vote favored Democrats? On what basis? Those that did vote favored Republicans. Correct?
I think one can logically conclude that the 150 million that did vote was a representative sample of the whole. So yes. A majority of Americans. Or are you here to suggest that we needed an even larger sample of the population to conclude one side won?
Seems sort of like election denial son.
Oh no. He has a very concrete plan on the border. Close it. Day 1. Deport the criminals first.
Sounds like a plan to me.
Id agree with you on the economy. I am not clear what his plan is there aside from deregulation and bringing jobs back to the US via the threat of tariffs and tax policy. But I have an open mind.
I never voted for a Clinton or Trump. Felt the morals and how they treated their marriage/women was disqualifying. The military has a sexual assault issue. It’s zero tolerance now correct. Having someone such as Hegseth lead it is contradictory.
Trump can find someone else who will change the woke policies. One with more executive experience than 4 years running a 25 person non profit. One employee of which he got pregnant. Good chance the reason he married her is his second wife had enough respect to dump his butt.
I'm not assuming anything about them. I'm not the one claiming they all (or most) support my side.
I think the only accurate conclusion one can draw from this is that more voters voted for Trump. That's a fact. Saying "Most Americans" or a "majority of Americans" support Trump is not a fact. I hope that helps. 23% of Americans support Trump. There may be more but that's the percent of Americans that directly made the choice to support Trump.
You are arguing against a strawman right now, which I've caught you doing a few times.
I'm not denying the election in any way. That is you building up the strawman so you can tear it down.
That's quite a plan.
I just created a plan to discover cold fusion. Check it out:
Day 1 - discover cold fusion
Do you know anything at all about statistical sampling? This was likely a representative sample. Sure there MAY be a selection bias but there is no evidence of that.
But ok. For the purpose of settling this, a MAJORITY of voters selected Trump. Id suggest a majority of Americans did as well. Either by action or inaction.
The culture is shifting massively. Huge win for our country.
Concept of a plan. Honestly think the DOD pick is more about salesmanship. Wants someone out there to sell using the military for domestic purposes. Pete being able to run the overall bureaucracy isn’t a consideration.
Well this is why Biden's failure is so mind boggling. All he had to do was:
Day 1- close the border.
You may joke that that is simplistic. Ok. Then why didn't Biden do something you claim is so simple?
I'm not claiming it's simple. You are making that claim. Hence my mockery of it.
Then you're a fool for mocking it. It actually is that simple.
Please enlighten me on how statistical sampling makes what you claimed factual.
Since you brought it up, is 50% a majority these days? Trump definitely got the electoral majority so there's that.
Looking forward to seeing it in action.
Strange that he didn't execute this simple one step plan previously.
I typed this. Perhaps you missed it.
"For the purpose of settling this, a MAJORITY of voters..."
No, I caught it and referenced it. I also asked a question related to that point.
And I also said this:
This was likely a representative sample. Sure there MAY be a selection bias but there is no evidence of that.
So what is your question? I didnt claim it was factual. Other than it is a fact there is no evidence that a selection bias exists that is...
Here's a fact though. SCOTUS, PV, EC, Senate, House, Governorships. All R majority.
Biden caused the border crisis day 1 with his executive orders. Quite easy to fix if you're not a drooling vegetable who doesn't work over 40% of the time.

I get that Trump isn't well loved and is polarizing in general, but this election was eye opening. It cemented how tribal the country has become as that terrible of a candidate was still able to get 48% of the vote given the last four years.
I agree. And I never have on mine of over 20 years. However it certainly isn't disqualifying for government service. OR maybe you think it should be?
At the very least it’s a giant red flag. Not so much the cheating itself - tho that says nothing good about their character, especially if it happens more than once; but because it opens up the person to potential blackmail/security concerns.
MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart Admits He’s ‘Kind Of Conflicted’ Over Trump Nominee Who’d Be ‘Highest-Ranking Out LGBT’ Cabinet Member Ever
MSNBC anchor Jonathan Capehart said he was “conflicted” over whether he liked President-elect Donald Trump’s new nominee to lead the Treasury Department.
Well we better disband Congress then.
I find it a flaw as well but I also think that with power comes a sense of invulnerability and extreme attention that lends itself to this.
If it helps you live with yourself and rationalize your misguided belief system, think what you must.59 percent of Americans are morons.
…See. Here’s one. ⬆️
“iT’s dat DeRe mAiNsTrEaM mEdiEr’s fAwLt tRumP dAdDy lErKs sToOpId lIkE mUhSeLf!”
Would love to frankly but we’re stuck with them for now. These nominees of Trumps have a great many question marks attached to them; and several would frankly be uncomfirmable if people had any integrity.
But this goes back to trump in the end. We’ve seen that he feels he is untouchable and will certainly never be held accountable by his party or supporters.
Well, let's see. He has failed to sign any of the ethical agreements that other Presidents have signed in the past so he might be making deals with foreign powers right now to sell favors (and based on his previous term he likely is). It's not like he has $500 million in debt he needs to get paid off. The emoluments clause evidently is no longer a thing that exists because not even Democrats have bothered to bring it up. Meanwhile, the de facto President behind the scenes, Elon Musk, is already drawing up plans to effectively eliminate NASA and roughly 20 million other employees.
He tried to orchestrate a scam to skip the Senate confirmation hearings for his cabinet because he obviously realized that many of the people he was going to nominate were wildly unqualified for the positions he was planning on putting them in and trying to invent a recess appointment process and break the Constitution was the only way he was going to get these people into the position he nominated them for. Case in point, he nominated a sexual predator to be his attorney general who had to quit Congress to prevent an ethics report from being released and only withdrew his nomination after it was clear that the recess appointment scam wasn't going to work and the ethics report would have become public knowledge at any confirmation hearings. His Secretary of Defense is also wildly unqualified and is receiving massive push back from people in the Pentagon, most of whom have likely identified themselves as people Trump will fire and replace with Yes men as soon as he has the power to do so. At least he hasn't been accused of war crimes though which is the only way it could be on the same level of bad as the AG pick. He has nominated a secretary of education who has vast experience in...professional wrestling. All three of these nominees have accusations in various stages of investigation for sexual assault or related crimes.
The only surprising thing is how little we have actually seen of Trump during this period, which is actually concerning. At least if he is out front of the TV you can get an idea for what he has been doing. Who knows what type of deals that could potentially undermine the American people or American security that he is making right now? Or worse yet, the health decline we saw at the end of the campaign has continued to progressively get worse and he is incapable of long moments in public and they are just hoping he makes it to the inauguration. I suspect it's the first one though.
Still, if this were Biden or Harris who had a first two weeks like this Republicans in Congress would have already tried to impeach him and run a 25th amendment, even if they have no power to do so, multiple times. And this poll says half the country is happy with this? If an EMP pulse wiped out all digital entertainment and sources the collective IQ of the country would double once we had adjusted to going back to newspapers for sources of information.
And he has been President-elect for 20 days.
