    Winning the popular vote, remember that’s the thing the libs were bitching about for years, is a win. What makes it large is also winning the house, senate, and gaining ground in almost every county across the USA. You are right, that’s not just big, it’s a landslide. The American people spoke clearly, the bullshit you likely support is over. Take the loss.

      Moving goalpoats, unrelated, more goalpost moving, claiming victory without any actual rebuttal, semi-truth, hope stated as fact, implication of stance not actually taken.

      Hmm, a bit derivative but overall a solid entry, not as good as the last, still no immigrant references, i’ll give this a 7/10 shitpost.

      Hey, if you want to reinterpret what “vast majority” in the context of a political win means, you do you.

        Every single news outlet reported it as a landslide. Kamala, the DEI incompetent candidate was told she sucked by the majority of voters. Ill assume you wasted your vote on her.

          Easily provable lie, hope stated as fact, victory claimed on position never stated.

          Come on guy it’s like you aren’t even trying anymore.

          Still no immigrants, not even an LGBT ? Really?

          lacklustre 2/10 shitpost, must try harder.

          in fairness that last one did use the phrase “vast majority” to describe the number of counties that shifted to red, not the actual number of votes

          I know i highlighted the difference between the two statements but i’m not expecting you to understand how statistics works or acknowledge the difference so don’t strain yourself.

            MA-JOR-ITY.

            If this happened to Kamala you would be doing back flips at the gay rights parade. But it didn’t. It didn’t even come close. Get ready for actual common sense leadership, smaller government, and the majority of Americans being united in making America Great again.

            Good things are right around the corner.

              Moving goalposts again? you’ve already used that twice, le sigh

              “vast majority” and “majority” aren’t the same, i specifically called out the vast part…but you do you.

              yes, finally an lgbt dig i was losing hope at this point but i get it now, you were keeping it in reserve, i can’t wait to see what you do with the immigrants, perhaps even we can hope for some drag queen action?..wait no, don’t tell me, i want it to be a surprise.

              a bit weak after that though

              provable unlikelihood presented as fact x2 , then lie that is easily provable and contradicts your own stance ( and still fundamentally misunderstands the difference between regular and voting population )

              You did get the slogan in though so some extra points for that, weird capitalisation, but close enough.

              hmm, a tough call this one…i’ll give it a 6/10, a couple new bingo entries but repetition and self contradiction are fairly weak.

                  Oh i see where my confusion is coming from, you’re the personification of a county.

                  That is entirely my bad for thinking you were talking about either voting population or actual population, neither of which has a vast majority of anything.

                  You were just talking about how you and your swing state county personification buddies won out by a narrow margin.

                  What were there, like 10 of you, 12? i suppose 7 or 8 out of ~12 could be considered a vast change.

                  You have defeated me sir (or whatever the pronoun for a county is) , with unassailable logic, facts and a true understanding of statistics and the word “vast”.

                  I concede.


                  Just realised that if you are struggling with “vast” you might not understand what a personification of something is, if so , disregard all of the above it isn’t going to make any sense.


                  Dammit forgot the rating.

                  Repeating of a factually incorrect statement, self-proclaimed victory over a position not claimed or proven.

                  1/10 - lacks originality, no personal attacks, no strawmen, no fallacies at all as far as i can tell, not even a single slur.

                  A single easily provable mis-truth and then a self proclaimed victory over an imaginary battle, what is this amateur hour?

                  If a gambit doesn’t land, you switch tactics or double down, come on now, it’s like you aren’t even trying.

      51% in an election with very low turnout is hardly a “landslide”. When you brag about something like this, it just shows people that you have to glom onto something other people did because you have no accomplishments of your own.

        Low turnout meaning the 15 million liberal ‘voters’ that only ever showed up in the last election, LMFAO.

        The Democrats got told by the Bigly Majority of American Citizens…We are done with your bullshit. Maybe you should go to a safe space and try to calm your emotions?

        I think Trump should send all Democratic voters a participation ribbon, you know, to make them feel less like a loser.
