Looks like we're gonna have a full Goldwater/Nixon 2.0 scenario when a bunch of GOP senators are gonna have to walk to the WH and tell the president it's over. looks likely later this week if Trump keeps this up. Unlike Nixon though Trump is completely insane due to his narcissistic personality disorder and doesn't live in reality, so it's not gonna work.

1) Biden has said nothing of pardoning Trump. In fact if I recall correctly he said he had no interest in doing so
2) I doubt Biden was referring to "letting them off the hook" when talking about bringing the nation together, and on that note
3) "Bring the nation together" IS a good sentiment for the president to say to the American people. What, was he supposed to say "thanks everyone who voted for me, but all of you who voted against me you better watch your asses because the big swinging D of the Democratic party is about to wreck your shit" instead?

Oh man... these all caps tweets from Trump. I'm going to have to turn my volume down to read these.
Well, if Pence is complicit, could see Trump pardon Pence, then resign and watch Pence return the favor. Would be dirty as all hell but they could attempt it and see how that plays. But I don't see how Pence could be that close and NOT be complicit in the stuff.
Off topic, you should change your name to "Shirou Emiya"

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.
Last big batch was like... 10 hours ago or so lol
But yea, i hope u're right. Also, if i remember correctly, there are some votes left from blue counties (a few 10s of thousands) and there are not that many votes left from Maricopa county (less than reported... i believe, correct me if i'm wrong).

And now the blame game behind the scenes is brewing. A senior Trump campaign official is blaming the President’s son in law for commandeering the legal strategy unsuccessfully, telling @NicoleSganga
, “Jared Kushner f***** it up.”
Here are the remaining ballots.

Measures that Biden can implement without Congress.
Rejoin the Paris accord.
Reverse every single one of Trump's 186 EOs.
Reverse the Fed hiring freeze.
Rebuild the devastated Fed government bureaucracy.
As far as ACA is concerned here is a non-exhaustive list.
Extend the open enrollment period back to 90 days;
Undo many other changes in the “market stabilization” rule;
Revise the premium adjustment percentage methodology;
Roll back prior guidance on Section 1332 waivers;
Eliminate the “double billing” rule for abortion services;
Revise rules on Section 1557 and provider conscience protections;
Address broad exemptions to the contraceptive mandate;
Curb state options for selecting a new essential health benefits package;
Promote access to nonprofit navigators; and
Curb proliferation of short-term plans, and limit the sale or deceptive marketing practices of other limited benefit plans.
Stop issuing drilling leases on Federal land.
Tighten flaring regulations which is supported by every single oil majors. A bunch of small to medium oil companies will probably cry crocodile tears. Screw them.
Tighten permitting and review process for new drilling, pipeline and petrochemical projects.
Outright ban on all new offshore drilling programs in Federal water. However, exclude offshore wind farms.
Congress never stopped funding low-interest loans for renewable energy. However, DoE under Trump's administration has been slow-walking loan issuance. Time to accelerate those.
Cancel student loans for those that met PSLF requirement. Or just cancel Federally funded loans outright.
Strengthen worker's right. Not sure that he can increase Fed's minimum wage without Congress.
Cut emission and increase mileage. Easiest way is to let California implement it's EV, emission and mileage policy, and expand it's Cap and Trade program. Where California goes the rest of the country will follow.
Etc.
