One of the fundamental problems in this country (and all over the world from what I can tell) is that people are unable to calmly, logically follow an argument.

I suggest you stop "guessing". I made a simple statement. He has either done a complete 180 and is now weak and defeated, or he has not. The next step is to work out the implications of these possibilities and consider their likelihood.

I don't know what is going to happen.

You’re right, the problem is that people are not able to calmly, logically follow much of anything.

You claimed that his statements were consistent and his two statements are consistent. The only way for your claim to be true is if there is some show of strength coming in the future on Trump’s part to take the country back.

If he has indeed conceded and is telling his supporters to suck it up and, swallow a rigged election, then that is literally the exact opposite of a show of strength, it is a show of weakness, there is no way to spin that, unless you believe he hasn’t actually conceded and is planning to do something major between now and 1/20.

Simply denying reality when it makes you uncomfortable is not calmly and logically following an argument.

Angrily coming to the opposite conclusion is not either.

I suggested a possibility. I did not make a claim. It is not the 20th yet.

Yes, and if we calmly and logically think about this, the chances of a “show of strength” are SIGNIFICANTLY lower than a showing weakness. At this point there are no arrows left in Trumps quiver. His last shot at saving this nation was 1/6 when he had a million plus Patriots in DC ready to match. Instead he squandered that opportunity.

The military is not going to go out and arrest sitting Congressmen and Governors. They aren’t going to come out with some secret server that they raided in Germany. The chances of Biden NOT being inaugurated are less than .01% at this point.

So you are trying to argue that my point is incorrect because it is incorrect in .01% of possible outcomes, but correct in 99.9% of them. That is not a logical argument.

Well now that you made a bunch of assertions and used percentages metaphorically I guess I am defeated.
