However, think about this: in my lifetime, we had some celebrity in the White House questioning the health and mental capacity of a Democrat running for president. And that wasn't just Trump this year (and in 2016 running for president). That was Ronald fucking Reagan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the other candidates mental capacity being questioned has probably been something that's been done since elections have existed in democracies going way back. But now 77% of Trump voters believe he was cheated apparently with the current right wing media nurturing that narrative, that's kicking it up a notch a little past the mudslinging of old.

I don't really think it's simply mudslinging. They really spread conspiracy theories about other candidates' health. Many Republicans think Bill and Hillary straight-up had people murdered.

Massdriver Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 I just had a conversation with my uncle who is a life long Republican. He has been a Trump supporter, but somewhat reluctantly. His family isn't switching to Newsmax or any other weird sources. He believes Trump lost and he hopes Trump gets out of the way after he leaves the White House to make room for more reasonable people. Maybe when Trump is actually gone from the White House, a good portion of Republicans abandon him even if he is still making noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaladinSolo Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 NY is so red due to how comically behind it is in absentee vote counting in the City, almost half of votes are still not reporting there, but for the most part the country shifted away from Trump everywhere, and the national house vote was something like D+2, which in the past would have likely ended with GOP house control, but the shift left was nationwide, with the GOP winning back the bulk of their seats in districts Dems really shouldn't have been competitive in based on partisan lean anyways.

As for America's decline, thats solely on the shoulders of an absolutely dysfunctional congress largely made up spineless dickfucks like Rubio.
