WASHINGTON - Several prominent Republicans said President Donald Trump's legal arguments had run their course, and called on him to allow the presidential transition process to begin.

Chris Christie, a Trump confidant who helped prepare the president for the debates, called the conduct of Trump's legal team a "national embarrassment." Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., said Trump had "exhausted all plausible legal options," and urged him to concede. Sen. Kevin Cramer, R-N.D., said it's time to begin the transition.

  Stop being a child (if possible).  England and later GB ran North America in a colonial system during the time frame I mentioned.  I guess that I should know better with you in terms of your credibility which is microscopic and collapsing.

Believe me, I’m far from an idiot. You have no idea. But your immediate leap to name calling speaks volumes. Once again, get over yourself. NOBODY is out to get you. This is the most diverse civilization in the history of mankind. NOBODY cares about the color of your skin. Is it a perfect society? Of course not. There’s no such thing. But to suggest that systematic racism is a major problem in 2020 is laughable.

Hardly. We've been over this again and again.

America is a very nonintegrated county. You have vast swaths of the landmass of this country filled with nothing but white people and cows. There's a really strong chance that many of these people never met or saw a black person that wasn't on television and probably never met a latino that wasn't performing migrant labor. I grew up in a place like this and traveled all across the country working in other places just like it. These places are all politically aligned to be republican and they support policies that openly harm minorities.

Cities are where some measure of diversity exists, but even then it's often not well integrated, with minorities often relegated to the lesser parts of cities. Democrats don't do the working class or the poor very many favors either. It really comes down to whether an empty platitude is better than getting kicked in the stomach.

I went to college in a STEM field and we had roughly 800 students. Of those, 8 were women and 4 were black. Raising up communities requires a diversity of options. Not everyone is able to turn a wrench and not everyone is able to perform a surgery or code a phone app. When companies say "we don't discriminate based on x,y,z" it may be true, it may be not. What's clear however, is that not enough people are positioned and prepared to take advantage of those opportunities. The cause for that can be traced back to secondary education, which can be traced back to primary education, whose failures can be traced back to policing & legal representation, living conditions and generational poverty.

Make no mistake, the USA ***** on poor people of all colors and genders. I grew up around white people who didn't have a person in their family tree that wasn't poor. That's not ok in country that's the richest nation in world history. The biggest difference is they didn't have to battle the extra factors that other people do.

I believe that education and economic reform help the most amount of people with the least amount of change needed and that a lot of the social issues we have will sort themselves out by fixing those two things.

  So, a radical redistribution of wealth and resources are in order?

Oh stop it! I grew up in WNY when there were pockets of ethnic groups. Though I no longer live there I’m going to guess there still are. There always will be. That doesn’t make this the racist country you seem to believe that it is. In Southern California we have all sorts of pocket neighborhoods of Latinos, Asians of all sorts, Blacks, etc and once again it doesn’t make ANY of these people racists. It makes them humans!

You clearly missed the entire point.

As a first step, yes, but much more than that is required.

   I suspect that Bull saw no more of America than his political science professor showed him.  I did high school out of Monroe County and it was anything but WASPy.  If a bad attitude exists in a household towards growth and development the background of the family is not going to matter in terms of advancement.  Kids are not going to succeed if the parents have a poor attitude towards education, discipline, etc..

Amen to that. My wife worked in the school system for decades. There was a marked difference in the performance of kids with parental support and those who came with an entitled attitude. The soft bigotry of low expectations is ALIVE and REAL.

We can thank Trump for that.

That is funny since this chat has gotten better since the snowflakes left. No more conspiracies, no more attacks for not liking Trump or not falling for his bull####. Only a few of you left and you are manageable.

And you apparently prefer a world where you don't have to debate anyone? I've never understood that approach to life. At least not after I grew up anyway.

Difference between debate and talking to a Trump supporter. A Trump supporter just tells you fake news when you try to debate them, then they give you these crazy answers that have no proof behind them.
