...A very long time ago, if you wanted to read a book, then you had to buy one...now...libraries.
...A very long time ago, if you wanted..protection...You had to always ..provide your own.
..................now city police departments............
...A very long time ago, if you wanted to see a doctor, Well that is too bad...now..emergency rooms
...A very long time ago, if you wanted to learn to read, you had get a tutor. Now, public schools K-12
...A very long time ago, if you wanted to go to swim?? ...now public beaches..
...A very long time ago, if you wanted advanced education? Now city colleges and many open to all colleges.
...A very long time ago, if you wanted to go somewhere....Now public transportation..

Trump throws away his... "last chance.".. to become more classy & dignified...

...You lose, You lose.....that is it and you accept the loss and move on. A humble acceptance of Joe's
win would have helped Trump when he becomes "Ex President Trump"...

...But no sir...Not this time...fight every state... tooth and nail..""This state and that state & here and there"

"Cheating everywhere..." "You know that is how .."THEY"... won the election"..

The fact that Biden got millions more votes than Trump is not enough for Dopey Donald..He thinks that fighting will make him "look better" and not "give in"....

Dopey Donald doesn't have a clue"......... says Stu...

This crap will go on and on...and the only one who will be hurt is ....Dopey Donald Trump..Why?
He will continue to look like ......"Crabby Dopey Donald"....Instead of accepting the truth, Trump lost...
.............Am I missing something......Did Joe win, and Donald Lost??......

......IS THAT IN THE NEWS, IS IT ROCKET SCIENCE?...HOW SMART TO DO YOU HAVE TO BE
TO SEE THAT?
.........................................................................................................

now wait...there is more........Does this help or hurt your own political party??...I wonder what leading Republicans think? But we already know the truth...Don't We?
Leaders of both parties accept .......................................................................
...............Joe Biden as President of the United States...EXCEPT ONE PERSON ONLY:
.....................................................DOPEY DONALD TRUMP..............................


.........................................sad to see DOPEY DONALD ACTING THIS WAY......

................................BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS, AND DOPEY DONALD IS WHO HE IS...

"Why Politicians Get Away with Lying"...From Jan 2012..

I found this in some old bookmarks....

Why Politicians Get Away With Lying

Maybe it’s a sign that the public has given up on honesty from presidential candidates. Instead, in a recent flurry prompted by the public editor of The New York Times, the assumption seems to be that politicians will always lie and that voters’ defense against that is fact checking by journalists.

But … why do voters let politicians lie to them? What sort of lies do people accept, and which do they object to?

Todd Rogers of the Harvard Kennedy School and Michael I. Norton of the Harvard School of Business organized this discussion.

Republicans are sick evil people

They don't give two shits about you
They think you should pay $900 dollars for prescriptions and like it.
They think you should go to your neighbors and beg for money for cancer treatments etc.
They think poor women should not get mammograms
They think it ok to be dumb and ignorant

About Getting Rid Of The "ELECTORAL COLLEGE"....iT WON'T HAPPEN, BECAUSE IT FAVORS SMALL

POPULATED STATES.....

.....AND .....small populated states like that...It gives them an ...unfair advantage...which they like...

Therefore, in order to change this, a constitutional amendment is needed [it is part of the Constitution)
and the small states will not approve this. This would have to go through state legislatures order to get approval...and no matter what they say, small populated states will not approve...

Small populated states........LIKE THEIR UNFAIR ADVANTAGE...IT IS THAT SIMPLE.....

About Stuart G

I thought I knew a lot, and I found out... how little I knew about what I know. And how much more there is to learn, if I listen and read what others have to say.
