    Nah, even Mitch McConnell is against him in fighting this.

    I hope he's taken from the White House in January kicking and screaming, in handcuffs. That's my one wish.

    Trump is gonna try to wreck Christmas.

    I can’t wait for President Biden to have the unveiling ceremony of the Obama portraits at the White House.

    Good days are ahead, people!

    Smart, reasonable people will be in charge. Soon!

    Fundamentally, the issue for Trump is that while Georgia projects to be very close and Arizona — at least in my view — projects to be very close, Biden is way ahead of the pace he needs to overtake Trump in Pennsylvania. If it were three toss-ups, that would be one thing, but Biden could wind up winning Pennsylvania fairly comfortably.

    Trump’s lead in Georgia is now down to 31,748 votes, per Decision Desk HQ.

    AZ is called. There's a broad gaslighting effort going on around those votes. Fox News made a call that pissed off their viewership and sunk their president, if they could retract it they would do it in a heartbeat and instead they doubled down

    I never thought in a million fucking years that an American president would file fucking lawsuits to STOP the counting of ballots in an election.

    From the far away land of Australia, I'm watching with apprehension and a teeny bit of cautious optimism for a Biden win.

    Trumps behavior in the past 24 hours or so has been truly disgusting and unbecoming of the leader of a country, but almost nothing he does surprises me anymore. Just disappoints.

    so you have Trump supporters in some states have protests chanting "stop the count"

    then you have them in other states chanting "count the vote"

    you can't make this up.

    the violence is starting though, as predicted it would.

    Is it over yet? There sure are a lot of idiots out there but I think we knew that. It is seriously time to do away with the electoral college. As is it was put in to appease the slave state it is ripe to be erased. Really disheartening that McConnell is still going to have an immense amount of power no matter which way the presidential race goes. Tha man personifies scumbag.

    The Georgia vote margin is now only 18,500 in Trump's favor, with about 220,000 votes left to count, mostly from Democratic districts.

    Equally as important, that means Perdue's vote total in the Georgia Senate race has dropped to 50.0%. If he drops below 50%, then that race goes to a 2-person run-off in January against Ossoff. Georgia's other Senate seat is already going to a run-off in January. So, that would be a chance (a bit of a long shot since it is Georgia) for Dems to pick up those 2 Senate seats in that special election, which would give them control of a 50-50 tied Senate (along with VP Kamala Harris).

    Don't forget there's no way in hell Trump lame ducks his ass down south to campaign for either one of these two runoff races. Biden, Harris, Obama will all be hitting Georgia hard and with Abrams' continued work I think they could maaaaaaaaaaaybe pull it off. Gotta get to 49.999999999999999999 first. LETS GOOOOOOOO

    about 50,000 votes left to count in Georgia. Biden is down around 18,000.

    The best part about Trump suing all these states and demanding recounts is that we get to experience Donald Trump losing to 'sleepy' Joe Biden one more time. And then he may still drag it out and we get to see him lose AGAIN. 2020 is really turning around.

    The confidence I was feeling earlier isn't where it was at. It felt like everything was moving in a positive direction and just stalled out. What the hell is going on in Nevada?

    here's the problem (imo) : yes, it takes time to count all the votes, some still coming in that were postmarked on time etc. but also I think it's a game of politics: which red state blinks first to declare Biden the winner? PA is red/blue, and that would do it. but NV? AZ? just a guess.

    I’ve been watching the guy on CNN. I don’t know his name. But he’s calm, logical, knows a LOT, he doesn’t use hyperbole; he’s zen, doesn’t make my anxiety go up. That Steve Kornacki and MSNBC is so dramatic showbiz omg. It’s maddening that Nevada “took a break” for 24 hours, but they’re claiming they want to “get this right.” The new batches are coming in from Clark County that are heavily Biden. There are a few outer Trump areas bringing in small batches of votes. It really does look like Biden will take Nevada.

    It's now looking like Biden will take Nevada. Again, you can't trust everything PredictIt has been saying, but for whatever reason, NV just went from slightly going to Biden to 90%. Meanwhile though, Arizona is in dispute? CNN is saying it's too close to call, despite AP calling it for Biden?

    I don't know what to make of PredictIt's odds... they've been all over the place. But they've been pretty consistent in favoring Pennsylvania for Biden, and I don't get it. 92% is reporting and Trump is leading by over 110k votes. PredictIt is also still favoring Biden to win Georgia by a slight margin.

    Does Biden currently have 264 or 253? Why is this a question I have to ask?
