At this point, I'm just along for the ride.

I can let ***get to me, get pissed, or whatever...or I can just let ***happen and watch the backlash as the consequences roll in.
Oh please, we all know you were rooting for Trump to win cause you just want to watch the world burn!
No.
Lies!

I'm also really excited to see what Ben "I'm not qualified" Carson will do with the housing and urban development problems.

Anyone else notice he appointed the black guy to a position with the word "Urban" in its title?

Donald come on son that was too cliche!
Even if it is cliche, Ben was a great pick because he's a success story who grew up in the government housing. I think he'll really do some good for the people there.
Except that's already been debunked lol... he didn't...

My main problem is that, how do you influence an election and lose the popular vote by over 2.5 million votes?

I think you just don't understand what the word influence means.

Clearly or they wouldn't think Info Wars and the like could be a reliable source of news.

"Info" is in their name! It must be legit!

Why would Putin want to take a chance on trump when the Clinton's are always for sale and already bought and paid for?

Hello uranium deal.

You mean the deal that required approval from several departments outside Clinton's sphere of influence?

Influence, not directly hack voting machines. By discrediting the unfavourable candidate and helping the propaganda of the favourable one. Russia does this nearly anywhere in the world.

I'm pretty sure the USA does it too, just to be fair.

Yep, nobody cared.

Back to silly posting then I guess.

*draws a big penis on the thread page*
Your government falls apart and reforms so often that it isn't news. Its kinda a ho hum yet again.

And by the time the world gets to know your current prime minister*, he's out.

*Berlusconi is about the only exception to this.

Stop right there.

He's not "taking a chance."

He's got Trump in the bag.

That's exactly the point.

10 members of the electoral college want a briefing from intelligence officials on the investigation.

Quote:
"The Electors require to know from the intelligence community whether there are ongoing investigations into ties between Donald Trump, his campaign or associates and the Russian government interference in the election, the scope of those investigations, how far those investigations may have reached and who is involved in these investigations.

We further require a briefing on all investigative findings, as these matters directly impact the core factors in our deliberations of whether Mr. Trump is fit to serve as President of the United States"

Should be noted the breakdown of the 10 is 9 Democrats and 1 Republican.

This non contribution of mine from page 2 is apparently a hot topic in the fake and non facts I don't like cycle

No matter what is said "it's a lie" no matter how much proof is given "it's a forgery" and no matter who provides said proof "they aren't trustworthy!"

No proof will ever be sufficient for some people.

Ben Carson grew up in a house, he will be great for that position!

Well I guess not, but it still baffles me that if we didn't have that Electoral College, Trump would have 100% lost.

Damn another great novel idea: "The Forge", in a medieval like time journalists are armed with swords and stuff and go out into the world bashing the news into people through violent means when necessary.

"The government is wasting money"
"I don't believe yuo!"
*bashes flail into misbeliever's head*
"Truth will find a way." *journalists stands above the corpse of the person with the weapon soaked in the blood*

Another news delivered!

I hope you're not being serious, because that's one of the stupidest talking points that I've seen since the election.

Hey US intelligence though without any doubt Sadam had WMD. I guess they're never wrong and never politicized?
