White House declines to say whether Trump will accept election results if he loses

Nope, he's totally not a wannabe facist/dictator/self-appointed-king.. no narcissistic, authoritarian tenancies at all. Practically normal, admirable even.. ;)

Oh, I know. I noticed that his choir boys have disappeared from this thread. I guess this level of cognitive dissonance was too much to handle.

I also noted this. Odd.

Trump's Hypocrisy is unlimited. It's too bad we can't tap it as an energy source!

You expect logic or something? You also expect supporters to see through that level of double talk? Preaching to the choir I think.

Trump, While Attacking Mail Voting, Casts Mail Ballot Again

President Trump cast a vote-by-mail ballot in Florida this week, after months of questioning the security of the method of voting, and in doing so he returned it to election officials using a technique many Republicans say should be illegal.

Yet they still continue to suck his dick. The GOP lost whatever shreds of integrity they still had when they acquitted him.

cliffnotes?

this article is a good overview - https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/ar...a-hoax/615373/

tl;dr

- report confirms collusion:
- Manafort, at Trump's direction, worked closely with Kilimnik to orchestrate state-sponsored hacks into the Democrat campaign
- Kilimnik confirmed to be working for Russian Intelligence
- Stone, at Trump's direction, directed Wikileaks to publicize Podesta emails to distract from the Access Hollywood scandal
- report confirms that original Mueller investigation was heavily obstructed by the White House via blocked testimonies, and that this was not legal
- report was compiled and published by a bipartisan committee led by Republicans

choice quote from the democrats' closing statement of the report -

It is our conclusion, based on the facts detailed in the Committee's Report, that the Russian intelligence services' assault on the integrity of the 2016 U.S. electoral process and Trump and his associates' participation in and enabling of this Russian activity, represents one of the single most grave counterintelligence threats to American national security in the modern era.

Her green card expires in 2022. With any luck, the fat orange retard won't be president anymore and it won't be a problem - her citizenship should be a slam dunk too, but, well, who knows. The original interview was pretty easy in 2010, but we had to do hers in Montreal because she's Canadian and you just have to do what they say...

Also, anyone read through the SIC report that just dropped about 2016 election interference? I skimmed some highlights and it's full of pretty scary shit.

My friend went through the green card interview with his wife recently as well. The interviewing immigration officer decided it was a good idea to ask them in vivid, graphic detail about their sex life. He then suggested that it was very American to be a housewife and her aspirations to do anything else (they're both math PhD's) were cause for deep suspicion. Very strange experience apparently.

We started my wife's citizenship application (legally, duh) before all of this started. But she's stuck in the queue and nobody is processing anything, not just because of COVID - it's also because of Trump policies from the very top. It's already been pushed back months, and if it's not approved she won't even be able to renew her green card potentially. God forbid Trump wins another term. It will literally break apart my family.

real talk. getting through the green card process with my wife under the current administration is probably one of my more impressive accomplishments in life. (bonus points: when we went in for the interview at 630 sansome here in sf, they asked her the questions you'd expect about "are you part of a sedition group, do you want to overthrow the US govt" and *she* doesn't but i'd pulled security/logistics on the Occupy ICE protest *at the same building* a few months earlier. awkward.)

I guess it's one of those powers that whoever came up with it, never imagined somebody like Trump would be president and willing to twist it to his own aims.
