You're welcome, btw.

a (representative) republic is a system where have representatives to make governmental decisions instead of directly making decisions. How, pray tell, do we chose those people who represent us? Maybe some kind of system, where people (demos) rule (kratos)? Maybe like a democratic republic (the thing the US is if you're not a fucking moron)

I can also list out random facts; doing so doesn't substantiate your claim that this was statistically impossible.

I don't need to do research to dismiss your claims that regular voting patterns are "statistically impossible". You need to justify your belief that they are.

Importantly, none of these make the result "statistically impossible."

> Explain how Kamala spent 1.5 billion campaigning and got 4.8 million votes People were complacent and unenergized to go vote for her. Things were "okay" and no one thought anyone would be stupid enough to vote for trump a second time. > how Gina spent 22 million and got 5.2 million democratic votes People are more energized and have 2 years of trump + abbot's horseshit to motivate them to go vote. > Texas gained 2.6 million new registered voters without ID , passport or any other confirmation of citizenship You cannot register to vote in Texas without an ID/proof of citizenship. Can't confirm if your number is real or fully pulled from your ass, but I'm going to guess it's the latter.

"Virtually the whole Democratic Party, which opposes any restrictions on abortion for any reason." Please find a democrat politician who opposes restrictions on abortions for any reason. We both know it's not "the whole democratic party" so I'll make it easy and just as for ONE democrat politician Also, notice how this claim has gone from "they believe abortions are sacrament" to "they treat abortions as sacrament" to "they want unrestricted access to abortion for any reason" I wonder what the next move will be when you don't find someone that believes people should just be able to abort babies at any point for any reason.

Or the simpler explanation: republicans have done a shit job and people are finally realizing it since it's starting to affect them personally. Someone post the skateboard meme.

I think it was sloppily worded, but I imagine his intent was that every person is "made in god's image"

No it isn't. Unlikely? Sure. Impossible? No.

Oh okay, so theyre "treating" it like sacrament not "believing" its a sacrament. Also, please find a single sane person who pushes for aborting fill term babies because its inconvenient for their life.

i think the biggest problem is trying to inject fake empiricism into the discussion. Yes, you can have a conversation about potential risks and evaluate whether those are well-founded concerns or plausable scenarios. But the moment you start assigning percentage chances to things you have entered an entirely different realm of required rigor. It's the same problem when continental philosophy tries to use quantum mechanics to justify fundamentally non-measurable ideas.

it bounces between a 6 and an 8; so split the difference and call it a 7
