Default Consider this...

It's taking way too long to count votes; something is going on. Trump clearly won this election, but Democrats are trying to stuff ballot boxes to try to win. Come on, now: Hundreds of thousands of votes were found and they're all for Biden???

Trump had a solid lead in Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina when we all went to bed about midnight; sometime in the middle of the night after counting had stopped, hundreds of thousands of votes were found for Biden?

Biden is senile; he's expected to be removed from office if elected...and you expect me to believe that he received the most votes in the history of this company??? No way.

Trump won the election...and Democrats are trying to steal it. Their low-level cronies are beginning to talk; the truth is surfacing about the ballots. A short delay in the election results would have helped the Democrats...but they took to long. Hang in there and watch what happens.

Here in Grand Rapids Michigan alot of minorities were approached and assisted with voting absentee, most of not all of them never voted before so that is in part why Kent County flipped fun previous years

I agree Spence. At this point, I absolutely believe something funky is going on. I truly believe though, that Biden is going to be put in the office of president. Before a year is up, he will be declared incompetent, then we get Harris, and God knows who else. If we end up losing the Senate to the dems, our country is going to be totally ****ed. With republicans having majority there, we can limit the damage a Biden presidency can do. I sincerely hope that Americans have enjoyed low and stable energy prices, along with more money in their pockets, because that shit is going to be over. I'm sure Biden and company think we can tax our way to prosperity, but that is just not how it works. I was hoping with a Trump reelection that America would stay on track. Now I think that it may be lost as we know it forever.

If Harris is declared the winner, then yes, this country will be lost. And, c'mon man, we all know that Biden won't last a couple of months in the Oval Office, let alone 4 years.

This is from Major Gen. Smedley Butler's short book, "War is a racket". I urge you to check it out, but here is an excerpt. And this was written damn near 100 years ago.

Smedley Butler on Interventionism
-- Excerpt from a speech delivered in 1933, by Major General Smedley Butler, USMC.
War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses.
I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.
I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.
There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.
It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.
I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.
I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.
During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.

I said before, the inhabitants of the Land of Misfit Toys all got together and became their own force.

Like the Toy Story toys that are all jacked up.

Biden will be removed within the first 3 months, if that long.
