But to be fair I don't agree with his central premise that foot massages don't mean ####.

I miss boring when it comes to US politics.

For too many years, our family experienced a lot of medical chaos. When things finally settled down (to a degree LOL), the utter vanilla boringness of the everyday mundane was like a balm. Boring? It's highly underrated. With the Trump administration, I'm tired of the chaos, the "holy bleeping bleep, he did WHAT/said WHAT now?" Boring is excellent.

Normal rhetorical flourishes. So refreshing.

Chief of staff Mark Meadows has Covid. Tough night for the trump camp.

I have no skin in the game, but I am fine dragging it out for a while. The slow burn must be causing Trump and his family so much anxiety and mental anguish. They deserve it all.

It’s the same ballpark. We thought we were the counter-culture then, they do now. We both purchased products to make us feel that way.

It makes sense that they wouldn't attach any meaning to the sounds that enter their ears and subsequently come to a soft thud against their mush brains.

Maybe they thought it was Kid Rock

Not sure if this was mentioned, but Philadelphia police arrested 2 guys who were suspected of plotting to attack a vote counting station.

Hopefully this garbage isn't the tip of the iceberg.

I looked a Georgia instead of Arizona. at one point they had about 25000 ballots left, then in jumped to 50,000 left. They were then 18000 left and it jumped to 23,000. And they were down to 200,000 then it jumped to 250,000.

They appear to have found just enough votes for Biden to catch up.

125,000 new cases in the US today. Another record.

Trump is in charge for another 75 days. How many Americans is he going to kill? 250,000?

Biden continues to inch upwards in PA.

Songs Republicans have used in recent years that make you wonder if they even listen to the lyrics:

Killing in the Name Of - RATM (used by Trump supporters on a few occasions)
Rockin' in the Free World - Neil Young (used by Trump and Bush Jr.)
Fortunate Son - Creedence Clearwater Revival (used by Trump)
Born in the U.S.A. - Bruce Springston (used by Bush Jr.)

At least 300k by mid January

Wouldn't surprise me if the various decision desks agreed on a threshold that they would call Pennsylvania (and thus the election) at. Any act of unity there by all the various networks would be pretty final.

Oh i meant only in the next 75 days. Hospitals are going to get swamped and they will be like Italy earlier this year. They will pick and choose who gets help and who doesn't.

Born in the USA was also used by Reagan

I see stuff like this or things shared earlier of people on the chan boards crying over how they lost all their money betting on a Trump win, and I just kind of feel sad for them. They have been conned. Those people aren't singing RATM because they're consciously cheering on fascism. In their minds they're demonstrating for freedom and democracy. No doubt there are some awful sycophants, racists and fascists among Trump's supporters, but there are a lot of people who believe in democracy and have just been conned by a con man, his political party and a persuasive media bubble.
