Why do you feel the urge to lie? It is a lie, you are not so stupid that you can't discover the actual margin.
It's not a lie, the truth just doesn't suit your narrative.

What's the difference between winning California by 500 votes and 5 million votes? Nothing. You don't get a bonus point or extra electoral college votes.

The difference between Biden or Trump being POTUS was less than 200,000 voters in 6 key states. Flip those votes and the outcome is different regardless of the popular vote.

And that's why it's so critical that Biden does a good job if the Democrats want more than 1 term.

But, but...they're all the same!
John Kerry told world leaders at the virtual Global Adaptation summit on Monday: “We’re proud to be back. We come back with humility for the absence of the last four years, and we’ll do everything in our power to make up for it.”

He called on countries to “treat the crisis as the emergency that it is” by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and warned that the costs of coping with the climate change were escalating, with the US spending more than $265bn (£194bn) in one year after three storms. “We’ve reached a point where it is an absolute fact that it’s cheaper to invest in preventing damage or minimising it at least than cleaning up.”

No, they're not the same in all kinds of important ways, despite their flaws.

I'm still waiting for Biden to deliver one of his key promises:

The mobilization of Truinanashabadepresure


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AV5HbLI_TdM

I have no idea what Truinanashabadepresure actually is but I have a few theories:


1: A type of acupuncture.
2: A mushroom souffle made in a thermomixer.
3: A weather phenomenon.
4: Secret weapon.

Did he say that before the election?Oh well,I guess he just assumed he was going to win,given that he knew all those corrupt Republican officials in places like Georgia and Arizona were going to help him steal the election.

Biden is presently +17.3% approved v disapproved on average, in the polls. Even Rasmussen (which, by suggesting that Trump was anywhere near even with Biden before the 2020 election, showed exactly why fivethirtyeight.com rates it as a "C" grade poll) has Biden's approval rating 10% up on the raw numbers (although fivethirtyeight adjusts that up to +18% in its weighting, given Rasmussen's bias).

Not sure where to post this but Dr Anthony Fauci wins a $1 Million US prize for standing up for science in the face of his abuse and vilification by the anti science Trump and his supporters.
