I know its late in the game to be asking questions like this, but why does he still struggle so much with applying the basic grammar rules regarding capitalization?

We're in the Zoom/digital age. Biden can easily run the country for 8 years from his basement.

So, Trump might actually have a case, at least in Michigan, if some of the videos out there are real. An awful lot of really full bags being brought in to secured areas without any security checks is certainly concerning regardless of who you are.

I brought up Jason Kenney because it was relevant to the discussion. We were contrasting elections in the United States vs. Canada. The type of widespread voter suppression tactics and deliberate disenfranchisement of certain demographic groups that are common in the US are practically unheard of here. Unlike in the United States, keeping the voting process neutral and fair is a value shared by all Canadian political parties. Kenney is one of the very, very few examples of a politician from any Canadian party allegedly cheating to win an election.

And I'm sure, much like everything Project Veritas has ever produced, these are 100% legitimate and not staged videos

Trump's lead in GA seems to be shrinking rapidly. Nevada set to announce results in 15 minutes or so. Maybe we can wrap this up before noon?

The most recent Georgia batch of 6,100 resulted in a net of 3,200 for Biden (77%). Trump’s lead is under 15,000 with an estimated 53,000 to go.

Based on the information on CNN, once all remaining Fulton votes are counted, there will be about 45,000 votes left to count in other counties, and the lead will be down to about 10,000 votes.

Trump campaign is having a press conference in Las Vegas with people describing voting irregularities. Eg. deceased voting, people from outside Nevada voting in Nevada. One elderly lady claimed her and her roommate's mail in ballot were stolen.


Seems like they know they lost Nevada and are preparing to fight it, just a few minutes before Nevada releases new numbers.
