    I think he could go all the way if he does the needful. The needful being a vague combination of political moves.

    He's dropping off his ballot, like an upstanding citizen.

    Wasn't there supposed to be some DOJ announcement today? I thought I saw people talking about it last night.

    I'm registered and got sent an "absentee ballot form". Ideally I can get this all done without having to encounter Proud Boys, KKK, neo-Nazis trying to intimidate voters, or our current president running around spreading lies and a literal plague to everyone he touches.

    Fuck everything about this timeline, how do I make sure this vote is counted?

    I would find out where official drop boxes are in your area. If you find one that is close to you, I'd do a quick google maps search so minimize wandering around and then drop it off.

    Then you can go to your state's voting website and track it. I dropped my ballot off on Saturday and I got an email saying that it was received by the local election officials on Monday.

    This. If at all possible try to find a location near you where you can personally go and drop it off yourself. A ballot drop box or other official drop off location. If you MUST mail it be sure it has any postage necessary affixed and note down any information you need to track it. Most states have websites where you can track your ballot, so check what information you need to do so before dropping it off/mailing it in case there's a tracking number to note from the envelope or something.

    EDIT: Also, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FILLING OUT THE BALLOT CAREFULLY. The most common reason for a ballot being thrown out is that it's completed incorrectly (no, it's not fraud despite what the party of Trump keeps trying to say...it's by and large people just not filling in all of the information needed).

    It's about ISIS terrorism. Nothing to do with 'Obamagate'.

    Pretty sure the right wingnuts were convinced that it was going to be announcing charges against Obama, Biden, and Hillary.

    Right-wing Twitter is currently losing its shit over Carly Fiorina (Remember her? No? You're forgiven.) endorsing Joe Biden on FOX "News".

    It's pretty special.

    Can someone tell me what this ObamaGate nonsense is? I keep seeing people post it on twitter, but no one is saying what it actually is, just that it's a coup.

    I know it's definitely nothing, but for my curiosity, what do they think Obama did this time?

    I’m assuming that it’s because the doj announced that... they were going to announce something... and right wing louts are desperate for any sort of “gotcha” amongst Trump pirouetting them and their political hopes and dreams into the pits of hell and so assumed it would be something damning about Obama.

    "Contrary to what I was saying earlier," Pence admits, "having a plexiglass barrier would be extremely bearable."

    Simply put, the world will see that people don't feel safe around the White House.
