'Trump Might Not Accept The Results Of The 2020 Election,' Says Movement That Still Hasn't Accepted Results Of 2016 Election
U.S.—Leftists are warning that President Donald Trump might not accept the results of the 2020 election.
These same leftists have spent the last four years declaring that Trump is not their president, that Hillary Clinton actually won because she won the popular vote, and that Trump only won because of Russian interference.
"It would absolutely destroy our democracy if Trump were to decide he won't accept the results of the election," said one woman in Seattle wearing a "Hillary Is My President" T-shirt. "We can't continue to exist as a society if people don't accept the basic rules governing a peaceful transfer of power."
"Also, Trump stole the election and is not my president." She then faced Washington for her evening screaming at the sky, a ritual she performs five times a day.

This isn't a parody. This is the Prez speaking.
Trump tacitly endorses baseless QAnon conspiracy theory linked to violence
President says followers of movement, which claims Trump is fighting ‘deep state’ paedophiles, ‘love our country’
Donald Trump has tacitly endorsed QAnon, a baseless rightwing conspiracy theory identified as a potential domestic terrorism threat by the FBI, claiming its followers “love our country” and “like me very much”.
Followers of the QAnon movement believe without evidence that Trump is fighting a Satanic “deep state” of global elites involved in paedophilia, human trafficking and the harvesting of a supposedly life-extending chemical from the blood of abused children.
Yet asked about the theory at Wednesday’s White House press briefing, the US president failed to condemn it. “I don’t know much about the movement other than I understand they like me very much, which I appreciate,” he said. “I have heard that it is gaining in popularity.”
....Trump’s comments also earned fierce condemnation. Tommy Vietor, a former spokesman for Barack Obama’s national security council, tweeted: “This QAnon answer is a ******* disgrace. It’s a death cult. The FBI identified QAnon as a violent domestic terrorism threat and Trump is pretending not to know what it is while absolutely encouraging them and incentivizing more insane behavior.”
QAnon was identified as a potential domestic terrorism threat by the FBI last year and has been linked to numerous attempted acts of violence. Yet last week Trump praised Marjorie Taylor Greene, a supporter of QAnon who won the Republican nomination in Georgia’s 14th congressional district, describing her as a “future Republican Star”.

Steve Bannon Is Charged With Fraud in ‘Build the Wall Campaign’
Stephen Bannon, President Trump’s former top campaign aide, was charged on Thursday in New York with fraud for his role in a scheme related to “We Build the Wall,” an online fundraising effort that collected more than $25 million, officials said.
Mr. Bannon and three other defendants “defrauded hundreds of thousands of donors, capitalizing on their interest in funding a border wall to raise millions of dollars, under the false pretense that all of that money would be spent on construction,” said the acting United States attorney in Manhattan, Audrey Strauss.

Trump was never impeached.
Actually Trump was convicted by the rabid left before he was even inaugurated.
Unfortunately for the rabid left nothing has come from their lying and he is still the President.
Suck it up rabid lefties, for another four years!

Trump's Presidency crystallized
Obama said he had hoped Trump would "show some interest in taking the job seriously."
"But he never did. He’s shown no interest in putting in the work, no interest in finding common ground, no interest in using the awesome power of his office to help anyone but himself and his friends, no interest in treating the presidency as anything but one more reality show that he can use to get the attention he craves," Obama said.
"Donald Trump hasn’t grown into the job because he can’t."

You couldn't make this stuff up, its beyond any script Hollywood could come up with, its in line with the fall of Rome and its debauchery, never happened in US political history before, mean while supporters cheer Trump on, the election really is going to be interesting.
I really think if Trump gets up Australia will be very exposed with China.

True.
However it could be even worse with Biden with the aggressive Harris calling the shots.

I think they already have. They are on to the cheese plate and cigars and laughing at us.
More to do with our short sighted plans rather than with the US-China relationship.
We have gotten ourselves into a position to be too reliant on China.

Forever damaging the credibility of the impeachment process, just like Obama's Nobel prize.
The Nobel peace prize no longer means a jot, and impeachment is meaningless.

Yes, I agree to the former. Too politicised and Obama did not deserve it so early in his term. The latter I disagree with. Impeachment isn't meaningless. It is just that the GOP couldn't care less.

One of the critical failures of the Trump Presidency has been the destruction of US diplomatic influence around the world. That has been crystallized in the recent efforts by the US to "snapback" sanctions on Iran despite them unilaterally pulling out of the deal over two years ago .
Iran sanctions: nearly all UN security council unites against 'unpleasant' US
Letters from 13 of 15 members underscore US isolation as it seeks to ‘snap back’ measures against Tehran
The extent of US isolation at the UN has been driven home by formal letters from 13 of the 15 security council members opposing Trump administration attempts to extend the economic embargo on Iran.
The letters by the council members were all issued in the 24 hours since the US secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, came to the UN’s New York headquarters to declare Iran in non-compliance with a 2015 nuclear deal.
Under that deal (the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA), comprehensive UN sanctions on Iran would be restored 30 days after the declaration. But almost every other council member has issued letters saying that the US has no standing to trigger this sanctions “snapback” because it left the JCPOA in May 2018.
....Diplomats at the UN said the depth of US isolation was in part a reflection of the abrasive style used by Pompeo, who accused Europeans of choosing to “side with the ayatollahs”, and the US ambassador to the UN, Kelly Craft, a political appointee.
“The Americans were actually being over the top in their ridiculousness,” one diplomat said.
“The underlying point here is that most countries on the security council basically agree with the US that Iran is not a nice country and it having nuclear weapons and more arms is not a good thing,” the diplomat said. “But the Americans misplayed their hand so often, so aggressively, that they isolated themselves from people not on policy, but on just being unpleasant.”
