#1 Because guilt always feels bad.

#3 It feels so bad because you know inside that you sold your freedom for a few pieces of silver - only its not exactly silver...

#5 Cheating always comes with remorse. To know your part of the ending of the greatest nation on earth, just to satisfy a temper tantrum, is not good for the soul...

#6 Right, we just need to surrender to the lies and cynicism of Dems/media/Soros and their cronies.

#7 It feels bad because they know they cheated but also because CNN has now admitted the virus came from China (a year late) and the existence of the Hunter Biden laptop is now being reported after a year of it being ignored or played off as a dirty trick lie. Many on the left now know they've been lied to on a few big issues and are starting to realize their world might be built on a foundation of such lies.

#8 Oh how the left cheered when they killed the senate filibuster on judicial nominees and then griped when the results of that decision stung.

Maybe the remorse today is not about the cheating required to throw Trump out of office but the inevitable results of sky high deficits, $5 a gallon gas, high unemployment... and the notion of a child psychologist showing up when they dial 911 for a home invasion.

#10 I think this reporter doesn't have what it takes to be a part of the main stream media.

#11 To believe the numbers is to believe the old white man is a better campaigner than Obama and a better candidate than Hillary!

#12 This clownshow is starting to resemble the verdict in the OH Simpson trial. "Glove don't fit!"

Doesn't matter how much evidence there is. The original sin must be purged, even if it means telling the nation that the sun revolves around the earth.

Whatever Xi Jinping says.

#14 It'll be interesting to see how Biden's economy does. I'm sure he'll blame Trumps reaction to Covid for economic flailings as his policies kill that upwards trajectory.

#15 Yeah, but what's Kamala gonna do?

#16 Whatever Xi Jinping says.
Well, IMO, that's actually better than whatever Joe & Kamala might come up with.
