Wow.

I hope Biden is well protected for the foreseeable future.

Trump and his tiny raisin balls probably incited a few crazies out there with his statements.

CNN was saying they already have the restricted airspace setup around his home. That was pretty much immediately after the Philly vote dump. I have to think he'll be well taken care of.

Cohn says they might be waiting for a .5 point lead in PA before calling it. That won't come till the next vote dump which they said might take a few hours.

You’ll have to remind us the last US President that exhibited unchecked nepotism in stuffing the White House full of his family members, flouted the law with indignance, lied as he breathed, and worked tirelessly to discredit public institutions and the very fabric of the electoral process... except if it was in his favour.

Also, as I distinctly remember you being one of the right’s / Trump’s routine apologists on this forum, allow me to remind everyone of this quote:
“When this is all over, nobody will admit to ever having supported it.”

If progressives want change they need to protest Biden and the Republican senate and court with as much energy as they did Trump.

Trump exposed weekness in the checks and balances that their is almost nothing that can be done if you don’t follow convention. The next despot will be smarter.

I'm only believing everything after the "but"

Do you really believe that moron's spiel? That an evil gangster empire runs the top?

What sources or evidence do you think Trump ever had, and why didn't he come out and offer them, rather than just make allegations? Or do you think its possible he painted that picture of everyone that didn't approve of him simply because he's a sociopathic, self-felating narcissist.

Is there some self interest behind the scenes at the top of the government? Sure there is. But this isn't a Batman movie.

I will never understand why some people were so willing to give their complete trust to a guy that just made baseless allegation after baseless allegation. He's just taking advantage of the side of you that feels a sense of injustice about the world and wants to yell and kick dirt about it. But if you're truly and impartially looking out for the best for the people then you'd be vetting his comments as much as everyone else's rather than just nodding and raising your pitchfork at everything he says merely because he SOUNDS convincing and honest.

Nate Cohn needles are the one true God. We were all kinda miffed when the needle went to Georgia, but he was right on.

EDIT: I'm wrong - I'm informed he didn't wipe it, he's just never tweeted. My bad, sorry.


Kushner just wiped his twitter clean of every tweet.

Polls will be interesting to look at when this is all done.

Pennsylvania by 1.5-2 isn’t a miss, Georgia by .25 isn’t a miss. It might end up being a Normal polling error year of 3-4%. Will be interesting to see state by state margins versus polls.

Michigan, Wisconsin, and Ohio look to be significant misses even though the direction was correct.
