And LadyG... I mean Lindsey Graham

I still want to know what made Lindsey went from hating trump prior to the 2016 primaries to basically kissing his ass every millisecond afterwards.

Oh wait, he has no spine.

You're the most powerful and richest place on earth. Stop being a dick and care for your own people.

yeah about the richest and powerful, that's all coalesced into a very tiny tiny tiny minority. we are fighting for it. Are you seeing this election?

[Breccia]

It's math, plain and simple.

It's not about the votes anymore. Trump is going full fascist and has a rabid army.

[Fugus]

The stronger Biden win electorally the better, because it should squash any potential legal hanging chads incident.

Why oh why did they have to use my name to refer to that....

Boo!!! So much........ Booo!

Forgive me, my knowledge of songs involving bananas is rather shallow.

Money. Power. Any other base motive. The man is nothing but trash.

Well, if he goes so unhinged that he risks causing major damage and destroying their name further they may decided to reign him in with the 25th amendment potentially trying to silently.

They don't care if they destroy the nation or even the planet, they worry about hurting THEIR power and their future to wield it.

His cabinet will not use the 25th on him. They are all either meaningless nobodies who only exist because of Trump or actual true believers.

Furthermore the odds are that a good chunk of them have now been soiled by Trump's various illegal misadventures. And while Trump might be made of Teflon, they aren't. Them staying out of jail is likely very much tied to the ebbs and flows of Trump's political fortunes.

Less that I think and more "Compromat" as said before. Remember the GOP had their bases hacked too and they only leaked just enough to let them know they had it. THAT was when Lindsay did his switch, and to go THIS far, I wonder just how damning that is if it is true.

Trump has the slimiest people on earth working for him. No way they don't have every one of LadyG's boys on speed dial for a story.

True enough.

it already turned blue. Biden is winning it by 48 votes. You can analyze trump winning 2016 because of erie county. people have analyzed it. Biden just overtook Trump in it. Dem's have taken Pennsylvania back.

[Demolitia]

We do... look how well the rich are doing.

Every single democracy on the planet managed it. I know you're being sarcastic but really ... that's infuriating.

Arizona is not looking great. Trump averaging 59% but needs only about 57%.

After a federal judge ordered another sweep of United States Postal Service facilities in Texas for Wednesday afternoon, 815 mail-in ballots were recovered, according to the Texas Tribune.

The additional sweep was to check for any outstanding mail-in ballots that could be eligible for counting. Any ballots postmarked on or before Election Day can be counted, if they are received by 5 p.m. the following day.

Gotta wonder how many more were postmarked before the election day but are lost, sitting in sorting facilities.

Arizona is not needed anymore.

you don't think we're pissed off about it? we're living it. we're trying, and failing.

I wonder why the USPS still exists as is. Havent heard anything remotely decent about it ever.

When votes start coming in from more blue parts of Maricopa and outside counties the % will plummet.

Should be fine, it is a mix of rural and urban areas. Trump will do well in rural, but there are too many Urban votes to catch up.
