“I dialed Bill Sammon once again, tapping the numbers with such force that I’m surprised I didn’t crack the screen of my iPhone,” Meadows wrote, according to Insider.

I’m sure meadowmuffins made certain his rage dialing was done within earshot of the orange one.

Poopful Meadows is a profoundly silly (as well as stupid) person. He presumed to “know” Fox’s call on Biden’s AZ win was wrong on the math. Here is Exhibit A for the arrogance of this very small man.

The term “rage dialing” seems so dated, like it belongs in the 60’s on one of the huge metal pay phones in a phone booth.

We still freely use the term “butt dialed”, as rudesy gurney can affirm.

“I walked back down to the Map Room, where our analysts were reporting good news from social media. The Twitter traffic was all trending in the right direction.”

Well, that’s the definitive proof right there.

I have a modest proposal: How about the incoming election results don’t get covered at all. Once the polls close, after all, the results are set, and they aren’t going to change. So, just report the final number; everything else is just noise.

I’ve been involved in many Canadian elections at all three levels of government. Federally and Provincially, we still count paper ballots by hand. But here in Toronto, at least, the paper ballots are counted electronically as e-day rolls on. When the polls close, those numbers are all uploaded, and in 10 or 20 minutes we’ve got the results.

Just don’t call him a funny guy.

ETA: Actually, you can call Meadows a funny guy. Because he won’t do anything (without Trump’s permission).

But, don’t call Joe Pesci a funny guy.
