Scorge Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I've been playing quite a bit of chess again during lockdown. I've often found that the slow, painful and systematic dismantling can be more fun than a quick kill. This most certainly applies with Ol' Weetabix Heed. He's going kicking, screaming, flailing, but he's going. He threw everything at this: the dogmatism, authoritarianism, the no-doubt-yet-to-be-fully-discovered dark digital misinformation and propaganda, the dog-whistle racism, intimidation, the self-styled narrative of being stronger than a global pandemic that has killed tens of thousands of fellow contrymen/women, and the first 40 pages of the Ladybird Book Of Fascism. He's lost, and the biggest domino of intransigent-pigheaded-alpha leadership has gone down. With any luck, this result will put Boris Bumblecunt and all others of his ilk in check, and the subversive-Cummings-weirdo types will be sluiced out of the political spectrum. What replaces it in the UK, I'm not sure, but having a sane, sentient US president who talks a more consensus-seeking game should ripple through. Exactly what happens to the Trumpet is anyone's guess. He's owe Deutsche a fuckload of money, and has an inbox full of fairly chunky lawsuits that even a quick-fix pardon from Pence won't give him immunityfrom. He deserves to spend the rest of his days either swimming in the shit he has created (preferably with a spell in the nick at the end), or in exile in a NETC doomed to irrelevance. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still surely only a matter of time I would think. I'll enjoy the salty, salty tears meantime. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 There comes a point where you have to stop and wonder if he genuinely believes he was cheated and this isn’t just all an act. Those around him then act as enablers because it suits them to keep him in the White House. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 I love how he's suddenly resorted to caps lock, placing him on par with the middle age 'I bet you don't have the guts to share this' thickos of the social media world. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speckled tangerine Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 That's Merkel, Bojo, Treudeau, Macron and the facist Australian c**t all on twitter, amongst others looking forward to working with the new president and wishing him all the best. He must realise it's all over surely to f**k? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably also building up the subscribers for his new QAnon church and media empire. Edited November 7, 2020 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't surprise me if his advisors said that the election was unwinnable in the current climate and this tactic was the only possible way of staying in the White House. Asking Republican voters to turn up in person during Covid would guarantee this counting pattern would happen and be part of this wild plan. Unfortunately for them Trump has become so obsessed by it that he's gone full-blown Trump. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 (edited) It's simply that this is how Trump behaves. He has spent his life not paying bills and suing people. He has not only no interest in the truth - he has very little grasp of it as a concept. I think his narcissism is clinical. He has a very unusual psychological make up. He is genuinely incapable of accepting any notion of defeat. This reaction is the only one he can possibly muster.
