So the more I think about this, the more I am concerned over the closeness of this race (and the landslide in some states).
Over the last 4 years:
  • Flynn case
  • Falsely accused Kavanaugh and turned it into a circus
  • Russian Collusion farce
  • DC and Hollywood pedophilia
  • Absolute hate by MSM
  • Censorship on social media
  • So many more

The problem is that this has all ramped up very dramatically or come to light in the last 4 years. The last 12 months has seen some extreme examples of behavior that would send any of us to jail but has absolutely ‘0’ repercussions for the members of the Democratic Party or DC/Hollywood elite. (See Hunter Biden)

Even with all of what you and I might consider negative press, we were still unable to get a definitive win for Trump and maybe not a win at all. Even if he does win, these parties will be emboldened at what they were able to get away with. This election has proven that a majority of the people will happily vote for Joe Biden, imagine what would happen if the Democratic Party put someone charismatic on the ticket? They’ve proven that their base doesn’t care about lies and they’ve shown they’ll look past almost anything.

On top Of that, a common theme amongst my friends and family has been that we are the ‘silent majority’. I’m not sure I believe that any longer. We certainly have been the more silent group in the past but unfortunately it looks like we waited too long to wake up and our majority is now gone. I think in the past the MSM and Democrats may have been afraid of that same ‘silent majority’ but what reason do they have to be concerned now? Apparently they can operate with almost complete impunity.

So how do we work on this, how do we turn the corner? Do we have to stoop to their level and lie? Can we actually get people to see things the way we see them? Another common theme is the pendulum swinging. If it goes too far to the left, it’ll swing back to the right. What happens if it swings so far that it gets stuck?

I’m really curious to hear everyone’s ideas on how to improve this situation?

Not trying to be defeatist, just bums me out to know 2/3 of the people around me (San Diego) voted for Biden. 😢

yep. My wife and I voted Trump. hurts to see 15 at risk. That needs to be a NO. If that passes, we are getting closer to leaving (pending wife’s company decision on new location)

I really believe the huge push by the Libturds was far more about protecting themselves from pending Criminal charges than it ever was about the Presidency.

The world is changing.....

There are haves and have nots by choice and they feel entitled to what you have worked hard for.

We have been on this path for a while as a culture. Social media and absentee parents over the past 20 years are taking its toll on
Americas youth especially in affluent coastal cities.

Then factor in illegal immigration and there children that are legal and now of voting age being pushed blue by hollywood and all there favorite sports stars.

Like everything it will all come back around 50 years from now. I read a article yesterday that said the younger group is actually becoming more conservative because they think its the "cool" new thing as apposed to there older woke siblings.

AZ, Nevada and TX might not be far enough away from California. If you truly want gto get away we are all going to need to go to utah (praise the Mormons and there conservatism) or Tennessee it seems.

Life rolls on most people are good and I will never make enough money or have an inheritance where CA's brass will steal from me much more than they already are.

I think the Pacific states will continue to fall in line behind California and they will continue to do what CA is doing. Utah being one of those states that may feel pressured down the road. Liberalism is unfortunately contagious.....look at what's happening in Arizona and Nevada. 🤬

The only thing I feel that had the biggest impact on the pres race was Trumps off the cuff comments about people and that lead to never trump!

San Diego went from a 5-0 conservative majority to a 3-2 lib majority in the last 4 years. Not only is AZ not looking good, San Diego (our primary home) is looking more like the shithole city to the North of us.

As far as why? Most people don't pay attention and the lib media suppresses stories to skew their agenda. Social media is also 100% in the bag for the leftist agenda.

All the mis doings and sins of the rats will be swept under the rug and forgotten about. It was a by any means necessary situation for the dems. They won. Prepare your anus

San Diego went from a 5-0 conservative majority to a 3-2 lib majority in the least 4 years. Not only is AZ not looking good, San Diego (our primary home) is looking more like the shithole LA to the North of us.

As soon as I sell my shit I’m unplugging. Media & social media is the opiate of the masses. Life was better without it

This isn't the pendulum swinging, this is the major powers of the world pulling out all the stops on a threat to the plans they have laid. It's not Left/Right.

I feel sick to my stomach, this morning. We just witnessed the end of democracy, if Biden "officially" wins.

These weak, woke morons that don't have the balls to think different and have never visited a socialist country are in for a surprise... News flash: Only the strong survive, those that are weak and woke are the ones that die of hunger.

Buy more guns and ammo if you can find them!!! You're going to need them to protect what you have earned since the Law Enforcement will be disbanded. I feel young people are going to have to fight for food and water sooner than later.

Roger Hedgecock predicted this decades ago.

Neither Biden, Harris nor Trump will escalate nor be quick to get us into more war. To me that's a BFD.
Plus we control most of the important parts of the Federal Govt.
We'll be fine.

We gave the max to her campaign for Cali State 38 and she won it. A good future Governor.

Agree, and no one in MSM or the left will question it, pisses me off as much as anything else LOL

This isn't the pendulum swinging, this is the major powers of the world pulling out all the stops on a threat to the plans they have laid. It's not Left/Right.
Agree, could not have trump pulling the curtain back any farther. He wasn't a republican (in the party sense), he was an outsider which is exactly what we needed, and something I fear we will never see again.

They didn't vote for Biden, they voted against Trump.
EC is going to Biden, as well as, the Popular Vote.

You can't win an election,when you trash trash your own party. Trump is really not a Republican. He's a Republican In Name only (RINO)

See above :)

I actually agree with you... And agree he had very little tact. However, where we disagree is that is exactly what I think we needed to "Drain the swamp". Both parties get together in DC bars and are for all intents and purposes friends. There is backroom deals going on and everyone is just "playing their part". he shook that up and couldn't be bought. I don't think 'they' are going to let that happen again...
