Orange is not the only color*

It is said that ahead of GWBush moving into the White House, the W was removed from computer keyboards.

Open to the wit of fellow-boarders, what low-level prank might Trumpites pull in the next two week, please?

I'll have a pint of what you've been drinking.....

Will you finally give this up when you've been proven totally wrong on Wednesday?
obviously ultimately I don't know how this is all going to spin out but keep an eye on all the objections tomorrow. It should start to get really interesting.

Clive he is defo up to something, he spent time at some military base whilst people and some of them were antifa were wrecking havoc. His video he made was a green screen production job telling people to go in peace.

He has still not conceded to Biden, never mentioned him, nor his party, just saying it will be a seamless handover. There’s been talk for a long time of him taking the USA back to the original constitution, maybe that’s what his plan is? His message last night / this morning told you it’s not over. The left are freaking out cos they probably know the chess moves he’s making and are trying to stop him?

We will see what happens between now and he 20th.

I'd imagine the thing he is most up to is deciding if resigning is the best of a bunch of bad choices for him right now. It might help him in the long run to do it and frame it as a way of helping transition and hoping Pence does his part and pardons him, not that this will necessarily count for anything in reality.

There are a million combinations he might take and all of them are for the betterment of Donald J Trump only. So sad that tens of millions of people over there truly believe he is in it for them and not for himself. And over here.

That would seem logical step down and get his family pardoned, but it’s hard to second guess what he will do next.

"I pursued the result through the courts
Now congress has certified the results ".


Sounds like a concession right there

His statement yesyerday saying he wouldnt be
Attending the inauguration ceremony says it is CONCESSION , without actually saying it.

If Trump did resign then Pence would take over for the last few days and the awful way that Trump has treated Pence recently, well cant imagine Pence doing Trump and his family any pardons !

Oh please, not that nonsense. The rioting was clearly orchestrated and led by various hard-right-wing groups (Proud Boys and other 'America First' types) to stop Congress certifying the results; by invading, taking hostages (see photo examples of people with cable ties) and effectively toppling US democracy. That's the complete opposite of anything or anyone 'anti-fascist'.

What happened on Capitol Hill was people who not only believe every ridiculous lie circulated on the internet like you do, but so desperately wanted them to be true that they tried to change democratic reality to fit those lies. They are the reason Wednesday's events happened, they and their Liar In Chief, the orange one. Don't blame others like 'antifa', Black Lives Matter or whoever this week's 'political movement' target is, call it for what it was - an attempted hard-right-wing fascist coup.

Did you miss our journey has only just begun?

Did he mentioned Biden? Did he mention the Democrats?

Didn't he say a new administration will be certified on the 20th? When the camera cut it stayed like that for 17 seconds which is what letter in the alphabet? Why cut the image? Sending a sign maybe?

He goes on to say to build a new society based on patriotism, faith, love, charity and family.

I think he is still playing his hand.

I'm not saying that they didn't try a coup. Look at the man with the horns on his head, he is antifa look him up at the BLM riots. Then look at the man with the cream top on with a communist sign on his hand, again not a trump supporter. Then go look up the video of the security guard copper just letting them in and then telling them where to go whilst about a dozen or so coppers or security just stand there as they all walk past doing nothing.

All is not what it seems.

You are so foolish to just blindly share this sort of nonsense - you're just embarrassing yourself. He's not Antifa - he's very well know as a far right, QAnon follower. It took me all of a minute to find this fact check on the ludicrous fake news that you seem to accept as gospel.

https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/fact ... 581755002/

And, while we're at it - NO we shouldn't be looking at him anyway - he's the cartoon - the real worrying ones are the guys in tactical clothing carrying cable-tie restraints. They're the ones that meant business.

And further to Spike showing you that your above wasn't correct on the 'man with the horns on his head being Antifa', it is also not true that the man with the cream top on had a communist sign on his hand, nor proof he is Antifa.

https://www.alreporter.com/2021/01/07/n ... m-alabama/

Now that you've seen proof both are incorrect, will you now maybe start taking the youtube/website/newspaper/altnews site that you use for information as possible being biased and not correct? I imagine you won't even admit to getting this one wrong.

It's odd you spend so much time telling people to not be sheep but blindly share so much incorrect bollocks.

This was both false flag by antifa, but also Trump loves them and thinks they're very special.

The beauty of Wednesdays idiocy is that these morons have their faces plastered everywhere, so it makes these kind of dumb arse conspiracies easily disprovable. Wonder what's happened to Red Dwarf now that the latest of predictions has proven as pitifully off the money as the rest. Sure he's checking his sources and this was actually a bunch of BLM activist wiping congressional computers of proof about Hunter Biden's noncery.
