Anyone who allowed Palin to be his running mate was politically stupid and deserved to lose.

A dignified concession speech follows a defeat.

McCain the man is one thing, McCain the politician is quite another

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

You are as delusional as the guy in the video.

Conspiracy theories are 2 a penny but the strange thing is how they never turn out to be true.

The only good thing about them is once one has failed those who believe in them generally move onto the next one, so it keeps them occupied at their keyboards whilst the rest of us can get on with life.

The suggestion was they aren't words. They are.

Opinions will be divided over how accurately they are used. Some will think, never. Others, often.

What puzzles me is why Trump is doing this. It's obviously not going to work and will just delay the preparations for a smooth transfer of power.

The idea that it's to "protect democracy" won't fool anyone other than those who have swallowed his bs for the last few years and are beyond hope. The rest of us know he doesn't do anything unless it's in his personal best interest. So how can chasing a lost cause be in his best interests?

He has a brand to protect. He has a dynasty, which with careful handling could rise again in the coming years. There is even talk of him standing as an independent in 2024.

By acting in this way he is throwing it all away. His legacy will forever be tainted by this behaviour. For me, and many others, it was already tainted but this will damage him beyond repair with many who were on the fence about him.

He is acting like a desperate man. For me he has done so ever since the pandemic struck and he realised the impact it would have on his re-election chances. In seeking to ignore it and keep the economy as his priority he has cost many lives, in the hope it would be enough to save him.

So why is he so desperate? We know he is a flawed character who cannot accept losing, but there are ways of losing battles without losing wars.

I believe there are indictments waiting to be served on him and his family immediately after he loses office. Maybe even at Biden's inauguration. Maybe the knowledge of that and the prospect of jail is what is driving this. We'll see.

There’s talk of Trump needing to be a gracious loser. What about anti-Trumpers being gracious winners? Your man won, you can enjoy it without revelling in the downfall of another.

Vive le Roy!
