And this is the kind of dumb shit they do to not get people to have confidence in the results.

Looks like the conspiracy theorists like CC cost the GOP the senate. It’s going to be an interesting two years.

I just think this is what happens when you nominate and elect someone like Trump. Yeah, we may be sick of traditional politicians. But we really hate assholes like Trump. Him being in office brought out a lot of Democrats and turned off a lot of middles. To the point they wanted a lot of his supporters to suffer as well.

Well, he is part of the conspiracy theory team lol. Historically though, you're also not wrong. There tends to be party shifts like this, especially when one party is in control. Regardless, it was really inexcusable to lose both seats, especially when Perdue had a 2% lead after the general election. There are going to be a lot of hard lessons learned for the GOP.
We will see what crazy shit the dems will be able to pass. Joe Manchin is a sneaky conservative democrat at times. He is probably going to be the gatekeeper for the next two years.

More likely move the goalposts a bit farther and fail again.

The world will move on just fine as it always does. Our institutions are bigger than any personalities - as Trump is finding out. Turn off Hannity/Limbaugh for a week and see how much better you feel.

He's shown his true self in the most blunt way going out. I don't know why anyone would have expected different. His followers got played like Trump University students. He ran on a wall, rearranging our trade with China and getting the budget under control as his three top items. There is no Mexican wall, China trade imbalance is greater than before he took over and deficit has grown staggeringly. A total failure on all fronts.

Man you must have been sleeping the past 4 years. The wall is bigger today (illegal immigration slowed to a snails pace), Chinese trade is more balanced to day then ever and any one sided argument about the deficit is stupid. EVERYONE is at fault on that issue.
You fail to ignore the other aspects of the past 4 years he created.

China trade imbalance is greater today than in 2016. An incomplete wall we have paid for and that has inconclusive results is not what Trump promised and finally, if the trade deficit was out of his control, he shouldn't have promised to fix it. Failure on those three fronts.

I hear a democratic House member is switching parties today to contest election and Pennsylvania just decertified.

As to the latter, I did a Google search and found this:
Which includes this, which seems to make this his next "move the goalposts and fail again" argument.
WGAL’s Matt Barcaro asked the Pennsylvania Department of State, which oversees elections in Pennsylvania, about the push to decertify the Electoral College votes, which have already been cast for Biden, and he was told the state election code does not allow for decertification. It's not a legal option.

McConnell probably deserves the blame in conjunction with Trump because it can't be a good look for any R running for office when just beforehand, the MAGA leader and most prominent establishment Pub have an open disagreement on how much money we get in stimulus compared to how much is going to random countries. At first, it was just another D vs. R stalemate where we wound up getting the table scraps, as usual. Then Trump said they should go with the $2K, which is what the Ds were looking for. Mitch was super-against going that way and, suddenly, it seemed my Twitter feed was even more all about Georgia flipping to get him out of the Majority Leader spot.
And it also didn't help that various MAGAs, including a couple on Trump's legal team of Saul clones, were playing the "If they didn't force Georgia to go for Trump, then you shouldn't vote for them" card.
In a way, considering my general displeasure with the two-party system and what choices it's been giving us, all this party splintering is cool by me. The Squad vs. the Establishment on the left was a thing before they all realized they better mobilize to beat Trump -- meaning now that they've possibly/apparently won, the infighting will begin again as to how best take advantage of their advantage. And now, it's the MAGAs vs. the Establishment on the right to provide the next "get your popcorn" ready debacle in our political system.

You forgot to mention while also giving away billions to other countries. It's hard to argue "naw, we can't afford to give you all 1200 more" when they are doing that.

I said "compared to how much is going to random countries"!!! But, yeah, for a guy who's been around as long as he has and who is as savvy as he's been in getting and maintaining control, this was a bizarre "completely misreading the room" moment for him.

267k+ less votes for Perdue than Trump (and more of a gap for Loeffler). Neither Warnock or Ossoff will win by more than that. Trump stans stayed home bc of Trump and his foolishness. I don't think $1,400 was the difference of voting or not.
