U.S. Presidential Election 2020

does bring to mind…

Pretty sure the midnight train goes anyyyyyywheeerrre

BBQ
Beer
Freedom
and a face mask worn on the chin. America, **** yeah!

That lame stop the vote vid is like something from phoenix nights US version.

how criminal is Trump

Let’s face it. There is a lot more than the white house riding on their election for Trump. The odds of him losing this election are about the same as the odds of him, his family members and members of his staff ending up in criminal court if he loses. Once he’s lost the protection of being president, he is fair game. I bet there are a few people in the FBI and Justice Dept who would love to settle some scores.

when Biden wins how will he attempt to work with McConnell

He will tell him that anything he gets through the Senate will get vetoed do hard his turtle relatives will feel it and he doesn’t have the numbers to overrule it.

My comment was clearly part of a rhetorical question – as the rest of the post makes clear.
mcconnell is all about power – and denying everything to the Dems.

Well this is a very strange and rare feeling, and I thinks it beats any other election. I still can’t get worked up about Biden, but only one thing matters.

Which one is it? BBQ, beer or freedom?

According to NYT Biden has been picking up 78% of the mail in ballots

Dazh,

The TDF, the Giro, the Vuelta and now this! It’s been a great year at the races.

Michigan officially declared now for Biden.

That only leaves the orange buffoon to fight over PA

Anybody been following Antony Scaramucci these last few months?

He’s on Preston right now.

Meanwhile, in Oklahoma:

Wow. Just, wow.

If I had to list the states most likely to do that, Oklahoma would have been somewhere in the late 40s.

This is wonderful

I remember acting just like this.

Nevada is key really. If that stays Biden then he wins – but really tight and lots of votes to count and apparently votes postmarked election day can arrive up to 10 Nov!

Honestly though, its a load of Byzantine nonsense

Biden has got 3 million votes more than Trump

3 **** million votes and still round we go with this arcane bullshit.

Even our own special version of electoral f whittery always picks the people who get the most votes as the winner

I have this vision in my head of trump being dragged out the white house screaming ‘turn those (polling) machines back on’ ala Mortimer Duke at the end of trading places..

His team don’t really do losing with Grace do they..

I’m with the Robocop scenario. Straight out the Oval Office window. And a Blaupunkt for everyone.

John King is made of steel.

Count Dracula? Or “Stop the ****!”?

I’m going for Gross Point Blank. A shoot out in the WH, and Trump getting a TV over the head. Probably with Fox and Friends on.

His team don’t really do losing with Grace do they..

Remind me again, ‘his team’. Who are they again? Oh yeah the despots, nepotists and his very own spawn. Go on the lot of ya. **** off right over there.

hes already a better president

To make progress, we have to stop treating our opponents as enemies. We are not enemies.

This is wonderful

Someone should tell him that “BBQ” is part of the gay rights’ movement.

Georgia is down to 1% lead for Trump.

What’s happening with Nevada? I’ve lost track…

by my shonky naths 140000 left to count, trump lead is down to 54000

Nevada isn’t releasing anything until tomorrow now.

Looks like things have moved…

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/11/03/us/elections/results-nevada.html

trump lead down to 44k

Bruce is all you need.

and guess what

Trump campaign has now filed a lawsuit in Georgia.

That makes three states with legal battles going on –Pennsylvania, Michigan and Georgia.

mcconnell is all about power

If Trump loses, mcconnell loses the veto, executive order power and it looks like the house will be democrat. Because you know he played trump like a banjo. So his power will be diminished. Which is a good thing all around. Too bad it looks like he might retain the senate.

Biden:

To make progress, we have to stop treating our opponents as enemies. We are not enemies.

There is another option, offer Trump an honorable way out.

I can’t see how Biden can win Nevada. From a rough tally and extrapolation Trump looks like he might have another 30-40k votes and he’s only 8k behind.

Scratch that. Didn’t realise Clark County wasn’t done yet. That looks like it’ll add another 60k ish to Biden so maybe.

100,000 votes left to count in georgia

trumps majority 37k

Biden to edge it by 10-20k?

And good job on the commentary folks.  It’s easier to follow here than out there in the wild west web

The interesting thing that is getting lost in the noise is that Arizona is still in play. That Georgia and North Carolina are even in question. That tells me that republicans should be piccolaxing themselves that demographics, changing voter expectations and the direction they’ve let the party go is increasing the likelihood that the party is starting to lose its place in the US political system.
