When I first heard of the New York Post, I had assumed it was a leftist publication-- because obviously New York is a very liberal place. But in fact the opposite is true--- its very right wing, and supports the election of right-wing candidates...including Donald Trump.
Their confronting him like this is quite unusual. I wonder what he will do about it?
The Post says: Give it up, Mr. President — for your sake and the nation’s
Mr. President, it’s time to end this dark charade.
We’re one week away from an enormously important moment for the next four years of our country. On Jan. 5, two runoff races in Georgia will determine which party will control the Senate — whether Joe Biden will have a rubber stamp or a much-needed check on his agenda.
Unfortunately, you’re obsessed with the next day, Jan. 6, when Congress will, in a pro forma action, certify the Electoral College vote. You have tweeted that, as long as Republicans have “courage,” they can overturn the results and give you four more years in office.
In other words, you’re cheering for an undemocratic coup.
You had every right to investigate the election. But let’s be clear: Those efforts have found nothing.
To take just two examples: Your campaign paid $3 million for a recount in two Wisconsin counties, and you lost by 87 more votes.
Georgia did two recounts of the state, each time affirming Biden’s win. These ballots were counted by hand, which alone debunks the claims of a Venezuelan vote-manipulating Kraken conspiracy.
Sidney Powell is a crazy person. Michael Flynn suggesting martial law is tantamount to treason. It is shameful.
Mr. President: Stop The Insanity - You Lost The Election
Mr. President, it’s time to end this dark charade.
Whiny bitch losers never accept that they're whiny bitch losers.
Yup!!
Nice try at deflection especially since there are two BIG differences between the Georgia Governor race Abrams lost. One, she conceded November 16th, just days after the election. Two, it is a fact that Kemp as Secretary of State at the time dumped over 500,000 voters from the rolls, the largest single cancelation of voter registrations in US history, most of which were in heavily black counties that likely leaned toward Abrams. If a Democrat Secretary of State had dumped 500,000 votes in mostly white conservative districts before the 2020 election there is no doubt Republicans would have been screaming voter fraud. Hell, they're screaming voter fraud without half a million voters dumped from the rolls and exactly zero evidence of any widespread voter fraud.
Those damn facts. Stop it Dismayed it's not fair.
They do that because that's the only thing they've got...
Good point.
And trump still hasn't conceded.
Even despite the fact that even more and more Republicans have asked him too,.
(Some out of common sense...but for many Republicans, its the dawning realization that Trump's juvenile shenanigans are actually harming their political party!)
And BTW there's more than a bit of irony here. Kemp had been one of the most totally loyal Trump supporters. But apparently that's not enough for crazies like Trump and his nuttiest supporters:
Republican Georgia Gov. Kemp Says Pro-Trump Conspiracy Theorists Have Threatened His Family
He, his wife and three daughters have been targeted with conspiracy theory-fueled death threats and false claims after he refused President Trump's request to overturn President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the state,
Corrected
No deflection. I responded to a post that did not name any names, just made a ludicrous statement.
As far as Abrams conceding, two far left wing news "sources ", NPR and Yahoo, have stories up right now stating Abrams has not conceded, at least not up to November THIS YEAR.
The rest is just your speculation and spin because you don't like the Georgia Secretary of State because he has an R next to his name. If a D SOS had done the same to predominate white neighborhoods, you would not have heard a peep from any democrat, including you, because you would have agreed to it.
Now, show some proof Abrams conceded.
My respond to dismayed applies to you too.
What facts? Maybe YOU can point out where Abrams conceded.,..but I doubt it.
Completely FALSE.

https://www.npr.org/2020/11/18/935734198
Why do you consider something proven to be false as a "good point"? Good point of WHAT????????????
Most of them don't even read their "friend's" posts. They just see that one of them posted, up voted it and post things like "good point", no matter what it is.
Lemmings love each other.
Yup, deflection, denial, and projection . . . all they got
Of course it's deflection . . . that's all you have . . . plus denial and projection
Waaaaaaiiiiittttt a minute...how many times have you told me I'm on ignore?
Crush, anyone?
You flatter yourself. I guess someone has to.
I'm not attracted to scum.
When have you ever provided a fact?
Well, the latest is my second sentence on 1.1.18.
Nice attack, but coming from someone who thinks using emojis as "quality" discussion, I'm not surprised.
BTW, I don't flag stupidity. That;s why most of your comments to me stay up.
Like I said, when have you ever provided a fact?
Time to take out the trash.
You ready bugs?
Then maybe you need to steer clear of some of those you hang with.
as you and Bugsy continue patting each other on the buttocks, asz toxic are your comments in regards to the truth, asz they are like a swimming pool with a Baby Ruth, emptying minds of truthful honest discussion, without merely a repercussion, so as to INFORM people, the basis of your claim is to defame Dismayed Patriot by parsing his word 'Concede', as to what candidate Abrams did in regards to the election results.
First, the meaning of concede, and context as to HOW her opposition candidate, who was also in Charge of the election results...NO ONE sees a conflict of interest here ??? WTF, it's rather obvious, and though she did not use the precise word CONCEDE, for reasons of her opponents capacity as election over seer, and the fact he had rolled approximately 500,000 voters ineligible. She DID accept the results of the election, and RECOGNIZED HER OPPONENT DID WIN, all while Trumpp has not, almost TWO MONTHS after the election. Where as ALMOST EVERYONE ELSE, including the GOP LEADERSHIP, have recognized BIDEN as our New POTUS!
(deleted)
I used to call going to the bathroom - taking a tRump - I just changed it to - time to take a bugsy
Then she didn't concede, and she never accepted the results.
The only way she recognized she did not win is that she is not sitting on the governor's mansion.
Maybe you need to bring your blabber to NPR and Yahoo news. Both, LAST MONTH, said she has not conceded.
Your own link proves exactly what I said.
"Abrams had stayed quiet for 10 days after the election while her campaign focused on getting more absentee and provisional ballots counted. Then she called a press conference at which she made a careful statement: "I acknowledge that former Secretary of State Brian Kemp will be certified as the victor in the 2018 gubernatorial election."
So yes, she waited 10 days, as I said "November 16th, just days after the election". It doesn't really matter that she didn't use the words "I concede", she acknowledgement that Kemp won was in fact a concession.
Concede: verb - admit that something is true or valid after first denying or resisting it.
"I acknowledge that former Secretary of State Brian Kemp will be certified as the victor in the 2018 gubernatorial election."
How is that not a concession? I would be happy to hear just those words from dumb fuck Donald but he refuses to do even that much.
"I acknowledge that former Vice President Joe Biden will be certified as the victor in the 2020 Presidential election."
It's that easy, but he continues to refuse to even acknowledge that he lost.
You know you do, otherwise you would not be replying to me.
Whitey got it going on.....
Then by your logic, trump has conceded because he is allowing the transition to proceed as normal, and never has to say the word "concede".
In your wet dreams.
come on, girl...you know it..
Well, unfortunately for you, I have to go and pick up the wife, but you know where you can find me (wink wink)
Hi bugsy, I don't believe that Trump has in any way shape or form conceded the election.
Nope, not even close bugsy. Have you forgotten the lawsuits, recounts, and the latest review of Georiga voter signature review finds no problems, so he has done everything in his power to stop the process in GA.
This is the latest BS from Trump, 12/30/20.
Trump Demands Brian Kemp Resign as Governor Of Georgia: ‘An Obstructionist Who Refuses to Admit That We Won’
Whiny bitch losers never admit when they lose.
From the dog pound?
Has he come out and acknowledged Biden won as Abrams did? No. So Trump is conceited but he has not conceded.
Let’s be clear: This is not a speech of concession because concession means to acknowledge an action is right, true or proper,” Ms. Abrams said amid a blistering attack on Mr. Kemp’s record as the state’s chief elections regulator and on the balloting process in Georgia. “As a woman of conscience and faith, I cannot concede that.”
As Ms. Abrams ended her campaign, she returned to a theme that had surfaced throughout: that Mr. Kemp, who was the Georgia secretary of state until the Thursday after the election, had used his position to suppress voting and ease his path into the governor’s mansion."
Obviously, Abrams thought Kemp used nefarious means to win election, and after further reading, i'd have to agree. She refused to use the "word" concede, but synonymous with concede
Oh, crap.
Trump can do whatever the law allows him to do, nothing more.
And you can twist Abrams failure to concede by whatever means you wish. I just chose to reject it.
Naw, that's where I went to meet you
When did this happen?
Let's be clear...
She never conceded.
So she took a cue from Hillary and blamed everybody but herself for her big defeat.
Unfortunately, you’re obsessed with the next day, Jan. 6, when Congress will, in a pro forma action, certify the Electoral College vote.
You have tweeted that, as long as Republicans have “courage,” they can overturn the results and give you four more years in office.

What a FRCKN LOSER
Please do not insult FRCKN LOSERS by comparing them to Trump!
And the NY Post is owned by Rupert Murdoch, the same Rupert Murdoch that ownes Fox News the outlet that Trump has been attacking.
Is the honeymoon over?
BTW, the Post hit it on the head.
Even if they hit it squarely on the head with a pile-driver, I don't think it will get through to Trumpists....
No it won't. Our reps (all republican) put out several tweets about the bills just passed and they got comment after comment of idiots saying that they need to stand by donald and how dare they go against him.
Unfricking believable how these morons actually worship the piece of shit.
I never thought I would see educated Americans whose brains were locked in concrete, but my God, they are here.
Stopped.
Clock.
Right twice a day!
Now we have Rep Gomert and a few others suing the VP to try to over turn the election.
This is a convoluted gambit to put Mike Pence in a teeny-tiny corner, obliged to support Trump's nonsense.
Gomert is not smart enough to set this up. So... who is Gomert working for?
I hereby nominate the esteemed Representative Louie Gomert for the title of dumbist member of Congress!
(Well, OK-- I admit he does a have a lot of competition for that title!)
I am not a spelling Nazi, but in a post talking about the intelligence of another, it might be wise to spell dumbest correctly.
Which brings to mind a famous quote from Samuel Langhorne Clemens:
Suppose I was a member of Congress. And suppose I was an idiot. But I repeat myself.
or not.
The Post is Rupert Murdoch's private toy. Everyone knows this.
So this editorial is like Rupert using a bull-horn in front of the White House.
Does anyone suppose that even Rupert Murdoch can calm Donald's rage?
Does anyone suppose that even Rupert Murdoch can calm Donald's rage?
No one can.
And even beyond that sort of insanity-- if someone tries-- even his most loyal supporters-- he turns on them! (See comment # 1. 1. 7 )
Sorry NYP, his legacy is pure shit and not worth saving.
I totally agree. But remember-- the NYP is very Republican and very Right-wing-- so they do have to be a bit careful not to alienate all their readers, LOL!
But the good news is-- there's a definite trend. While some of his cult members will still worship him as a diety-- regardless of what actual facts emerge-- more and more of his supporters are starting to wake up. And are realizing how he's harming the Republican Party!
(The editors of the NYPost being but one example)
Murdoch is less interested in readers than in investors.
