This shit show is a gift that keeps giving, though I am getting more concerned every day with the amount of stupid people there are in this country. To wit:
1. Last election there were cries to do away with the electoral college. Those people only think that way because Gore and Hillary both won the national popular vote but lost the election, but if the roles were reversed they would love the electorate system. Those people are hypocrites and they are dumb.
2. When RBG died and was so quickly replaced there were cries of stacking the court if Biden won and the dems got the senate (which neither Harris nor Biden backed away from when questioned). That is a Pandora's Box that if opened, both sides will just keep adding justices when they're in charge and we'll end up with 30 justices by 2032. Those people that want to do that are dumb.
3. Speaking of replacing SCOTUS justices, there are some people that think it was okay to not allow Obama to appoint one in 2016 when he still had 11 months left in his term, but now say it's okay for Trump to choose a new justice because a president's term is 4 full years and he must do his job until January 20. Those people are hypocrites and they are dumb.
4. There are some people that actually want to dissolve police departments and only have social workers, or just send cops out with batons, tasers and pepper spray (no guns). I agree that if all you have is a hammer then everything looks like a nail, but it doesn't make sense to throw away the entire tool box. We would definitely benefit by having people better trained to handle domestic situations and people with obvious mental deficiencies, and we absolutely need to provide better training for officers and seriously root out the bad apples, but to just get rid of police all together is a silly notion. Those people that think it's a good idea are dumb.
5. There are people that think Biden making millions of dollars "on a govt employee salary" is suspect and don't understand how lucrative speaking engagements and book deals are. They also don't think it's curious that Biden has no issue releasing information about his income while the other guy keeps his a secret. Those people are hypocrites and they are dumb.
6. There are people that don't understand that counting votes has NEVER stopped at midnight on election day. They don't understand that even when a state is "called", the votes continue to be counted. They also don't understand the media doesn't choose the president, that the results will be confirmed by each state. They don't understand that every ballot counting hall has democrat, republican and independent observers and doesn't need a mob of angry partisans to fill the room and intimidate the people counting. They don't understand that there are checks and balances in place to catch "glitches" or mistakes caused by human error. And if you explain it to them in small words because you want to make sure they know how the world actually works outside of their echo chamber, they refuse to listen. Those people are dumb.
7. There are people that see a US map that shows all the red counties vs all the blue counties and don't understand how a democrat won the presidency. These people also used the same map 4 years ago to insist the vast majority of people in America lean right. Those people are dumb.
8. There are people that don't understand that while some electorates might vote against the results of their state, the entire electoral college will not vote against the results of the general election. I heard people clamoring for this 4 years ago, too. Those people are dumb.
9. There are people that don't understand the SCOTUS is not going to throw out the results of the entire election because of a few easily explained anomalies that don't affect the overall result anyhow. Those people are dumb.
10. There are people that don't understand how taking away ballot drop off boxes, drive-thru drop off places, and not counting votes after midnight election day is considered voter suppression. Those people are dumb.
11. There are people that demanded some states to stop counting votes while at the same time demanding another state to keep counting theirs. Those people are dumb.
12. There are people who just don't understand how their guy lost because every person they talk to, every "news" article they read, every meme they see on social media, and every time they watch the "news", they are told the other side is evil and who the heck would vote for evil! It's made worse by not only by the whining from the sore loser who won't accept the result, but also his spineless cohorts that are too scared to tell him to shut up and the pundits on tv and the internet who feed the fire by spotlighting every half-baked bullshit "fraud" rumor that gets tweeted. Those people are dumb.
13. There are people that literally think the U.S. will almost immediately become a communist/socialist state. That George Soros (puppet master) and 2 or 3 other evil debils will create the New World Order by 2024. They think in a few months they will get a knock on the door by state police rounding up their gunz. These people are dumb.
