Lessons to learn, regardless of location:

1) Left Twitter is ridiculously small in numbers, no matter how much attention it gets, and shouldn't be listened to, ever
2) a rally with thousands means nothing in a country of millions
3) the cities full of liberal and left-wingers can and will be successfully negated when the suburbs and rural area unite under one cause or one leader

Bart's right, Trump is going to win next year. The Dems, just like Labour, don't understand any of this, simply because they don't want to. The formula to win was simple, turn Trump into the focus of everything wrong and make the destruction of his presidency the ONLY issue. Instead they're rattling on about government-paid public health care for all in a country where most people want to keep their own private plans, and about complete bullshit like rights for trannies.

Yeah, no matter the reality of Trump's active and ongoing evil, the Dems really deserve to lose. Again. They thoroughly and completely suck at fighting.

On your 70% figure - Bullshit. I don't care where you found the stat.

America got Obamacare and responded by voting out the Democrat, House and Senate. Then they voted in a Republican President who saw to it that the mandate requiring Obamacare was dissolved. He promised to dissolve the whole plan in his campaign. You know the campaign that saw him voted in as president. He may not have won the popular vote but he didn't lose to 70% either.

As to human rights for trannies - Bullshit. They already have equal rights. That's good enough. Pushing pre-pubescent kids into changing their physiology for life because some wacko parent or doctor thinks it's the new cool isn't a human right it's child abuse. Not crazy about brain-training kids to be more trannie-compliant in schools and libraries either.

Given how successful they are at getting people fired for the newspeak crime of not using the new 'n' trendy pronouns they're forcing everyone else to use one could almost say that it's the trannies & their supporters who are being the tyrannical ones. But these are the things that happen when a demented mental illness gets catered to by absolute fools. Right-wingers had no issue voting for Trump even though he's basically Caligula. Turns out the libs & lefties would have no problem themselves tossing their full support behind some new Elagabalus should one someday appear to rally the cause.

Facebook, Twitter Remove AI-Powered Fake Accounts With Pro-Trump Messages

Online campaign involved hundreds of accounts and more than $9 million spent on Facebook advertising[

Facebook Inc. and Twitter Inc. have taken down a global network of fake accounts used in a coordinated campaign to push pro-Trump political messages, including some that used artificial intelligence tools to try to mask the behavior, the company and outside research firms they worked with said on Friday.

The move targeted a U.S.-based media company that also operates out of Vietnam called the BL, which, Facebook alleges, used computer-generated profile pictures to cover up the orchestrated nature of its activities.

It's an OP-ED but.....
https://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2019/december-web-only/trump-should-be-removed-from-office.html

In our founding documents, Billy Graham explains that Christianity Today will help evangelical Christians interpret the news in a manner that reflects their faith. The impeachment of Donald Trump is a significant event in the story of our republic. It requires comment.

The typical CT approach is to stay above the fray and allow Christians with different political convictions to make their arguments in the public square, to encourage all to pursue justice according to their convictions and treat their political opposition as charitably as possible. We want CT to be a place that welcomes Christians from across the political spectrum, and reminds everyone that politics is not the end and purpose of our being. We take pride in the fact, for instance, that politics does not dominate our homepage.

That said, we do feel it necessary from time to time to make our own opinions on political matters clear—always, as Graham encouraged us, doing so with both conviction and love. We love and pray for our president, as we love and pray for leaders (as well as ordinary citizens) on both sides of the political aisle.

Let’s grant this to the president: The Democrats have had it out for him from day one, and therefore nearly everything they do is under a cloud of partisan suspicion. This has led many to suspect not only motives but facts in these recent impeachment hearings. And, no, Mr. Trump did not have a serious opportunity to offer his side of the story in the House hearings on impeachment.

But the facts in this instance are unambiguous: The president of the United States attempted to use his political power to coerce a foreign leader to harass and discredit one of the president’s political opponents. That is not only a violation of the Constitution; more importantly, it is profoundly immoral.

The reason many are not shocked about this is that this president has dumbed down the idea of morality in his administration. He has hired and fired a number of people who are now convicted criminals. He himself has admitted to immoral actions in business and his relationship with women, about which he remains proud. His Twitter feed alone—with its habitual string of mischaracterizations, lies, and slanders—is a near perfect example of a human being who is morally lost and confused.

Trump’s evangelical supporters have pointed to his Supreme Court nominees, his defense of religious liberty, and his stewardship of the economy, among other things, as achievements that justify their support of the president. We believe the impeachment hearings have made it absolutely clear, in a way the Mueller investigation did not, that President Trump has abused his authority for personal gain and betrayed his constitutional oath. The impeachment hearings have illuminated the president’s moral deficiencies for all to see. This damages the institution of the presidency, damages the reputation of our country, and damages both the spirit and the future of our people. None of the president’s positives can balance the moral and political danger we face under a leader of such grossly immoral character.

This concern for the character of our national leader is not new in CT. In 1998, we wrote this:


The President's failure to tell the truth—even when cornered—rips at the fabric of the nation. This is not a private affair. For above all, social intercourse is built on a presumption of trust: trust that the milk your grocer sells you is wholesome and pure; trust that the money you put in your bank can be taken out of the bank; trust that your babysitter, firefighters, clergy, and ambulance drivers will all do their best. And while politicians are notorious for breaking campaign promises, while in office they have a fundamental obligation to uphold our trust in them and to live by the law.

And this:


Unsavory dealings and immoral acts by the President and those close to him have rendered this administration morally unable to lead.

Unfortunately, the words that we applied to Mr. Clinton 20 years ago apply almost perfectly to our current president. Whether Mr. Trump should be removed from office by the Senate or by popular vote next election—that is a matter of prudential judgment. That he should be removed, we believe, is not a matter of partisan loyalties but loyalty to the Creator of the Ten Commandments.

To the many evangelicals who continue to support Mr. Trump in spite of his blackened moral record, we might say this: Remember who you are and whom you serve. Consider how your justification of Mr. Trump influences your witness to your Lord and Savior. Consider what an unbelieving world will say if you continue to brush off Mr. Trump’s immoral words and behavior in the cause of political expediency. If we don’t reverse course now, will anyone take anything we say about justice and righteousness with any seriousness for decades to come? Can we say with a straight face that abortion is a great evil that cannot be tolerated and, with the same straight face, say that the bent and broken character of our nation’s leader doesn’t really matter in the end?

We have reserved judgment on Mr. Trump for years now. Some have criticized us for our reserve. But when it comes to condemning the behavior of another, patient charity must come first. So we have done our best to give evangelical Trump supporters their due, to try to understand their point of view, to see the prudential nature of so many political decisions they have made regarding Mr. Trump. To use an old cliché, it’s time to call a spade a spade, to say that no matter how many hands we win in this political poker game, we are playing with a stacked deck of gross immorality and ethical incompetence. And just when we think it’s time to push all our chips to the center of the table, that’s when the whole game will come crashing down. It will crash down on the reputation of evangelical religion and on the world’s understanding of the gospel. And it will come crashing down on a nation of men and women whose welfare is also our concern.

Russian ads on Facebook: A sample gallery

The House Intelligence Committee on Thursday released all the ads purchased by accounts tied to Russia's Internet Research Agency -- more than 3,000 ads bought between late 2015 and 2017.

The ads run the gamut, touching on police violence, the second amendment, immigration and the environment. Others appear to be apolitical, sharing individual success stories, extolling support for black-owned businesses or sharing memes.

"There's no question that Russia sought to weaponize social media platforms to drive a wedge between Americans, and in an attempt to sway the 2016 election," Rep. Adam Schiff, D.-California, said in statement, adding that the online campaign was an effort to divide Americans "by our race, by our country of origin, by our religion and by our political party."

There are several samples there

Joe Biden says he's open to nominating former President Barack Obama to the Supreme Court if he wins in 2020

Joe Biden appeared at a campaign event in Washington, Iowa, on Saturday
When asked if he would nominate former president Barack Obama to the Supreme Court, Biden said: 'If he'd take it, yes'
If that occurred, Obama would be only the second president to ever serve on the Supreme Court
Former President William Howard Taft served as chief justice from 1921 to 1930







Creepy Joe still looking for that Obammy endorsement, and still not getting it.
