Thankfully, Biden can borrow Trumps playbook and just run a bunch of consecutive ‘acting’ officials. Sauce for the goose, and all that.

He’s scared to death of becoming a civilian. Lawsuits and prosecutions in NY await, and this is what panic looks like and how a grifter responds.

And he knows how to stall and hire people who stall.

There was once a Latino governor in AZ by the name of Raúl Héctor Castro, January 1975 through October 1977 when he resigned to become US Ambassador to Argentina. Someone like him won’t come this way again.

But it is gratifying to know Joe is leading in AZ, Kelly has won and how proud Ms Giffords must be.

That’s what it’s all about. Most shameless was his call to stop counting the ballots at the WH super spreader last night.

yea, there’s no good end to this… either the maga chuds will say Biden stole it, or the rest of us will say illegitimate SCOTUS stole it (if he’s able to push it that far and prevail). one way or another, there’s a bigger divide in the country than before the election.

It will be delicious to have him calling press conferences at some minimum security lockup.

Senator Susan Collins of Maine says she received “a very gracious call” from Sara Gideon, her Democratic opponent, conceding the race. The A.P. has not called a winner.

Yes. Where indeed?

Where are the remaining uncounted Nevada votes from?

I had read recently mostly in Clark County, which means it should hopefully be safe for Biden, since Vegas is there.

Re: Coop n Trump

U have to separate the two.

Cooper was expected to win and Biden was going to have slight trouble there.

Now the VBM’s might fix that, but until then…

Judges Dave, they won’t be McConnell’s judges. And should Thomas croak or retire he can’t get away with not voting on a replacement. And if they never approve a single judge thats better than one more trump judge.

Other than Lardass being re-elected I can’t think of a worse result than not getting the senate.
A Biden landslide would have repudiated Trumpism and pushed them into a corner. This close a contest legitimizes Trumpism. Amerikkka continues its rightward march. :frowning:
