    Pretty much. Our cons ution might say a president is supposed to care about all states whether or not they support him, but Trump has shown how weak and unenforceable all of those standards are.
    Biden should strip Kentucky and all those red states that depend on the government and other states to bail them out. I would starve the out of them.

    Biden is too much of a pussy for that though. Cards on the table and all that.

    Trump may be a piece of but like a true sociopath he's very pragmatic and black and white. What logic is there, really, for him to even acknowledge their existence when the electoral college dictates that he will lose those states no matter what? Time and energy best spent elsewhere.
    There is, or should be, a bigger picture for the GOP than the next election. There are plenty of Republicans in CA, OR and WA; leaving them without federal help because Democrats control the state government is a great way to lose Republican voters for good.

    What they should do if they get a majority in the senate is give statehood to Puerto Rico and DC, then wiork with Newsome and threaten to carve California into 10 different states if the Republicans don’t agree to abolish the electoral college and the each state gets two senators bull . That’s never going to happen though.

    The one realistic hope is the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. States that represent 196 electoral colleges have already joined it, while there are pending bills in Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and Virginia to join, which would bring it to 233. If it ever got to over 270 that would effectively end the electoral college and replace it with a popular vote, assuming SCOTUS didn't find a way to call it uncons utional.

    GOP Operative Says He’s Building System to Dispatch Protesters Where Ballots Are Counted



    Republican political operative Ali Alexander, who previously went by the name ​Ali Akbar, is floating the possibility of

    revamping a 2018 effort to discredit mail-in and absentee voting ahead of the 2020 presidential election.

    the night before the 2016 election, ​a PAC advised by Alexander received a $60,000 donation from hedge-fund billionaire Robert Mercer​, the pro-Trump billionaire.

    Alexander has associated with far-right figures including
    Unite the Right white supremacist attendee Matt Colligan, and made a habit of noting when members of the media he criticizes are Jewish, ​

    Alexander claimed he planned to revamp a November 2018 effort called “Stop the Steal” and

    create a digital text-messaging database ​that would dispatch supporters of President Donald Trump

    to places where ballots are being counted​

    as well as ​the offices of state ​election officials around the country

    if their “physical presence is needed.”

    https://www.rightwingwatch.org/post/gop-operative-says-hes-building-system-to-dispatch-protesters-where-ballots-are-counted/

    Sounds like the Repugs "Brooks Brother Riot" in FL 2000 recount

    10% of Oregonians (500,000) have been driven out of their homes by wildfires and the White House won't answer the phone.

    Do US citizens in blue states have a POTUS who will help them?
    Oregon didn't want federal help with fires set to private businesses. them.

    no grounds for it to be uncons utional. it is left to the states to decide how their electoral votes will be assigned

    I can see how Missourians could be for racism.

    I can also see them paying the NFL hundreds of dollars for a chance to express that opinion.

    lol white people

    You don't think Roberts and Gorsuch could rationalize an argument that it violates the Compact Clause? There's no question the other 3 will.

    People tune in to sports to watch sports. If they want political BS they can go watch C-span or maybe come to this forum. Has nothing to do with racism, although you guys are always finding it where it does not actually exist.

    You don't want your black athletes getting all uppity on you for half a minute of a three hour broadcast.

    I'm sure you're against military flyovers at games and the like, right?

    MSNBC’s Glenn Kirschner Says Trump Has Committed Second Degree Murder and ‘Must Be Held Accountable’

    Glenn Kirschner said that President Donald Trump “upped his own criminal ante to second-degree murder” by covering up the severity of the coronavirus in public


    “What Donald Trump has just done by virtue of the tapes that Bob Woodward released, is

    he has upped his own criminal ante to second-degree murder,” Kirschner told Obeidallah.

    “And here’s why:

    He was lying to the American people about the danger this virus posed…

    he was saying to Bob Woodward in very dramatic tones that

    “this thing is airborne only you need to do is breathe near somebody who is infected and

    you are going to get it.”

    “This man has upped the criminal ante to second-degree murder,

    and there are only two elements for second-degree murder.

    The first is you caused the death of another,” he added, doubling down on his previous claim.

    “The second element is the intent element.

    And here’s where it would otherwise get tricky if we didn’t have Trump’s incriminating admissions.”

    Kirschner broke down the second element even further,

    explaining that it can be satisfied in one of three ways.

    “You intended to kill somebody. We are not going to say Donald Trump intended to kill people.

    Or if he didn’t intend to kill, he intended to inflict serious bodily injury. Let’s give him that one,” he said.

    “The third is what’s called “conscious disregard.”

    That’s defined as

    your conduct was in conscious disregard of the extreme risk you were creating to other human beings that they would suffer death or serious bodily injury.

    Trump has admitted ... that is second-degree murder and Donald Trump must be held accountable.”

    So we should stop the presentation of our flag as well?
    There are non citizens playing televised games as entertainers.
    So... yeah...
