Kellyanne "I use do thave a daughter that loved me" Conway goes on FOX News for the verbal equivalent of what a five-year-old does to force that jigsaw puzzle together.
First of all, it wasn't three years yet. GOP had the House for two. Or, she's talking about NYState, but that election ended ages ago.His campaign manager is out there saying, ‘Joe Biden will be the next president of the United States.’ That should not be said, because we are still counting votes. And just as Joe Biden is telling people to be patient, I’ve been saying that since election night.
If they spent three years investigating this president, impeaching this president, we can certainly wait for three hours, three days, three weeks or three months, however long it takes for every legal and on-time vote to be counted
Second of all, this is a better spin than the rest of Team Trump. Instead of "stop the vote" or "keep counting" it's "count all the votes that are legal, then stop".
Legal = Trump, of course.
EDIT: Wait! There's more!
HAHAHAHAHA that bitch got called right the fuck out by FOX News live HAHAHAHAHAFox News anchor Martha MacCallum then asked Conway to comment on Trump prematurely declaring victory early Wednesday, even as millions of ballots were still being counted across multiple states.
Conway attempted to clarify the president’s remarks, saying, “I think what the president was meaning there is that ... earlier in the night, he had the race won, people were projecting that some of these states that were supposed to turn blue, like Florida, Ohio, Texas — three states where Michael Bloomberg himself alone spent $100 million to turn those states blue, and they’re still bright red.”
Another small Georgia update takes it down to 1479.
<Pure speculation>
During @Skroe's early impeachment threads, he had posited that a large portion of GOP leadership was complicit in campaign finance violations relating to foreign contributions. This was before the NRA issues with Russian money came out.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Graham involved in those shenanigans, and if I were a GOP Senator who had done something wrong that Trump knew about, I'd be terrified that he might turn state's evidence for SDNY or FBI in a massive RICO case.

More damning is that little "on-time vote" tick she threw in there.
On time meaning... the actual definition, as in simply postmarked on or before November 3? Or on time meaning the Trump-brand definition of... received, and possibly-implied counted, before election day?

Words to live by.
I had a couple of conversation with my mom who is ultra liberal. She loves seeing Trump cry on TV when all he needs to say is 'heh I put 3 judges on the bench and the best Senate might be is 50/50. Fuck it, I'm out". I added that last part.
The Senate was always supposed to be the static analogue to the House, where support is based on the population. I am fine with that. I think the real issue with the Senate are its customs that revolve around the two major parties. Customs that have little to do with the government and more about two parties consolidating their own power. The power that the Majority Leader has is a bunch of bullshit that's not sanctioned by much of anything.
I've firmly believed since Graham did his 180 on Trump that someone forced him to fall in line with his gay secret life escapades.
@Breccia
Question, if the President does an executive order, who is it that has to challenge it?
Since we can't call out Trolls and Bad Faith posters and the Ignore function doesn't actually ignore it. Add
"mmo-champion.com##li.postbitignored"
to your ublock or adblock filter to actually ignore ignored posters. Now just need a way to ignore responses to them as well.
Mitch pushed to confirm a judge then bailed on his responsibilities instead of passing a new stimulus package and he was still reelected. At what point do we call what Graham and Mitch are doing taking advantage of the mentally disabled? How do these blatantly corrupt individuals keep getting reelected.
For some reason this reminds me, there's a religious group in New Zealand who apparently believe that it's God's will that one party in particular should win the election. However they're also not allowed to vote according to their religion. They just... believe God will make it happen? Also they did some now-illegal electioneering.
Haven't heard from them for a while though so no idea if they're even still doing much.
