I think that officially makes Biden the 48th President of the United States now.


So when the EC votes, that’ll make him the 49th and on Inauguration Day, the 50th?

'The people have spoken': Judges reject two more U.S. election challenges

Oof. What does this bring the loss tally to? 1-42?

More than likely. I’m assuming they’re suckers for humiliation or it’s just Trump’s narcissism needing attention. I think that once the EC votes next week we should all collectively starve Trump of attention. He no longer matters.

Why not? He will continue to fleece his supporters and claim it was rigged so why not keep filing suit asking for judges to recognize him as the rightful president?

Although Donald Trump is widely hated by a broad swath of the population, I am at least thankful (and I think you should be too) that his tough on China rhetoric is going to become a mainstay of American politics. Communist China's rising political and economic influence poses an existential threat to democracy and individual liberty. The Chinese government and the businesses that operate for it are unscrupulous, thievish, and bent on achieving nothing short of world domination. Make no mistake, there is a cold war rising, and I'm glad that the Americans have finally awoken to this fact. People here in the UK really haven't.

Kissinger would be proud.

Trump is very fond of anti-china rhetoric
He is not, however, good at anti-china policy.

It’s being directed by idiots of course. But I think we ought to be vigilant. We dodged a bullet now, but the GOP has laid the groundwork to attempt this again in the future and they may have a more intelligent person then.

Yeah agreed the West shouldn’t act like the Cold War is over just because communism is eradicated in Europe, it still existing in other places backed by China, like in Nepal where there luckily are protests against the Maoists who rule the country
Right wing conservative
Media is the enemy of the people
CCP delenda est
orange man bad. diversity is our strength. real communism hasn’t been tried yet. the hong kong protestors are paid by the cia. antifa protestors are good, hong kong protestors are american bootlickers. China is a better alternative to America. uyghur genocide isn’t real, and it is western propaganda. Trump should not have killed Soleimani. gender is a social construct invented by white supremacists.

Basically it's a way of saying "also, we hate you" at the end.
Venicilian: wow. Jesus hung around with everyone. boys, girls, rich, poor(mostly), sick, healthy, etc. in fact, i bet he even went up to gay people and tried to heal them so they would be straight.
The Parkus Empire: Being serious on NSG is like wearing a suit to a nude beach.
New Kereptica: Since power is changed energy over time, an increase in power would mean, in this case, an increase in energy. As energy is equivalent to mass and the density of the government is static, the volume of the government must increase.
