    I've been around, on and off, a long time.

    You spouted off about demanding character, integrity and humanity in your president. I just simply pointed some candidates that wouldn't meet those standards. It's not my problam Kamal slept her way up the latter in California.

    Your misandry and hypocricy is typical. Go play your victim card somewhere else.

    I guess some of the Democrats for this....
    Sounds like some people forgot they voted for Bill Clinton.
    He was an adulterer with Paula Brown and they paid her off the same way as Stormy, but Trump got charged with Fraud. Then he manipulated an intern Monica Lewinsky while in the Oval Office. [​IMG]
    The double standards are laughable

    I avoided Fox coverage as I didn’t want to get a slanted take on the returns.

    I watched NBC early then to CNN, I liked the county breakdowns comparing past performance. It was interesting to watch as time went on and the numbers weren’t there and weren’t breaking that way how the tone changed. They were a bit slow to call some states and quick to call others but by 0100 it was pretty clean what the end was.

    You’ll be told nobody knew about any of that when he was running.

    Had Trump just paid off stormy and not tried to claim it as a business expense there wouldn’t have been fraud charges. He’s (or who ever did it) is an idiot for that.

    I didn’t watch Fox but had CNN on all night since their election coverage team is second to none, imo. They were extremely fair and giving Trump credit, pointing out where Kamala fell down, and very analytical on voter and demographic changes between 16, 20 and 24. Sure, there were people on there in a subdued mood but they were not over the top or anything like OP claimed.

    RFK and JFK cheated and were shady about those things too.

    Your guy won, just enjoy it and lay off the hypocrisy. It's not a good look.

    Oh 100%.
    I suggested in another thread on the topic that many POTUS were hardly men of high moral fiber.

    Today we hear about every questionable comment, and people seeking their 5 seconds of fame appear for distant pasts.

    I doubt anyone but the most pious person would pass detailed scrutiny. Men and Women alike.

    I think her point is the hypocrisy of the left.

    Certainly Trump has proven to be among the biggest slime balls, but he is hardly alone.

    Exactly! The left is full of the hypocrisy as they claim the right is.

    Griffin had an adult take.

    Hostin goes hyperbolic “unfettered power”, “daughter has less rights”. Seriously was there some change to the bill of rights last night?

    As far as the felon box, people knew and chose him anyway. Many employers hire felons. It’s up to the employer to decide if the crime is an issue. Trump voters decided it wasn’t an issue.

    Oh I get her point.
    Just seems bizarrely hypocritical claiming Christian values while trashing Dems for immoral behavior then giving trump a total pass for doing even worse. But it goes with the territory, she is not alone. I hear it all the time.

    I get that.

    In the bible God used so pretty crappy guys for good.

    I think that’s how some reconcile the moral conundrum.

    FTR I don’t believe Trump is sent by God.

    I chose the candidate that has been successful before and had beliefs and policies that secured my rights as a Christian.

    Yep... Jake Tapper and John King have played it down the middle. They've actually been benevolent about Trump's success.

    Heck, even Anderson Cooper has been watchable.
