    Mitch McConnell essentially ends trump's fantasy. he told his GOP senate colleagues not to pull any tricks on january 6th, and to recognize biden as prez. 

    wow. the most powerful republican in the land just told trump to buzz off. 

    hopefully that makes trumpsters turn on him. 
    There still something very, very problematic in Mitch's stance. His basis of precedent is set in his language of "the Electoral College has spoken", which is really really really really fucking bad. And it doesn't set up well for the future.
    he just said it that way because if he said "the american people have spoken" he'd be admitting outright that the election was not rigged. he has always been great at walking that line of speaking volumes through omission. 

    I don't think he was saying that to give the EC the power to overturn an election in future. but i could be wrong. 
    You'll be less-than-surprised to hear that I don't think the GQP is done trying to become a one-party system.  That said I don't feel any angst about the way Mitch said that.  He clearly waited until after the EC vote in case of...whatever...but officially, it is the EC that speaks and I personally would not have even thought to scrutinize the saying of "EC" vs "the people."  I view what Mitch said as a good sign for things going well on January 6 and neither here nor there for the long term.
    Putin on the ritz giving his stamp of approval. I wonder why there's no senate investigation of Moscow Mitchy Baby and Putin on the ritz's Kentucky aluminum smelter plant?

    I actually think that Putin and Mitch's timing was more about the electoral college than about Mitch taking a cue from Vlad. (But I still like implying otherwise to people).

    i am so relieved to know that they are working on the pressing issues.

    maybe before it is all over they will settle the long running Pam/Pan dilemma.

    I think as a Canadian (Canadian right?) you're more forgiving than me. But I take anything a politician says, especially a Republican politician, as deliberate. Words matter and I believe he couched it the way he did for not only the reason you state above, but because they know this is their only saving grace when it comes to a Presidential election. An R nominee for President has only won the popular vote once in the last three decades. Also see his language during the nomination of Merrick Garland, same thing. It's all messaging and this will register with dipshit R voters that the EC should have more legitimacy than the power of each individual voter.

    I actually think that Putin and Mitch's timing was more about the electoral college than about Mitch taking a cue from Vlad. (But I still like implying otherwise to people).
    I've been giving the fact that the repub party has sold its soul, the NRA (haven't heard boo from these fucks of late) as well, to Tricky Team Trump Treason Tax Cheat, a lot of thought, trying to figure out why so wedded, so compliant, so soulless and so unpatriotic. I mean, its not one member or even a small caucus of them. Its all of them. The whole establishment, minus a Romney, a Kasich, the old guard RINOs. These new repubs, the Matt Getts, the Gym Jordan, the Moscow Mitchy Baby, Marco Rube, Lyndsey Flimsy Flip Flop Faloozy Graham, Ted Crud, and all the others, who are rabid for a charlatan snake oil salesman, I just don't get what it is that keeps them so loyal. So it makes me think of the National Enquirer and Tricky Team Trump Treason Tax Cheat and Rodger Dodger Stoned and Roy Coin and the capture and kill or, capture and exploit. And it makes me think of Putin on the ritz and his chip on his shoulder and his KGB days. And the more I think he and/or Tricky Team trump Treason Tax Cheat has something on all of them. Pictures, videos, bank records, something. Its not like they all have to be traveling to Moscow or Ukraine, like Ruddy Ghoulianie (Borat anyone), because Maria Buttina (heard much of her lately?-I know she's back in Moscow, but....) was plying her wares/trade here in the US, in DC, while under cover of being an AU student. Most of the current crop of repubs were working to establish relationships with Russia, Russia, Russia, whether it be for "adoptions," the purported reason for the Tricky Team Trump Treason Tax Cheat Tower meeting, gun rights, energy policy, evangelicalism, etc. The way these guys comport themselves, the untold amounts of dark money funneled into campaigns, also leads me to believe that their naivety makes them easy marks. Add putin on the ritz's interference with the 2016 election, the Helsinki press conference where Tricky Team Trump Treason Tax Cheat looks like a ghost just whispered in his ear, there not being any consequences, selling out the Kurds, withdrawing from Syria and the recent hack of US government agencies, and again, no outrage expressed, no actions taken, no statements made, you have to wonder, why? What, how or why are they so beholden (we know the Tejas AG is angling for a pardon, corrupt fuck)? Putin on the ritz didn't wake up one day in 2015 or 2016 and decide to influence an election. This has been years in the making. Routine practice for the KGB back in the day. Get compromising information on a westerner and file it away for future use. It was standard practice. One a lot of these repubs might have forgotten about or not even have been aware of. Sergey Kislyak is a "friend" invited to the Oval Office and classified information shared. 305,000 dead Americans and the repubs are "outraged" about losing an election, an election that our own intelligence agency said was the safest, most secure in history. And Putin on the ritz recognizes Sleepy Woke Joe Basement Biden and Moscow Mitchy Baby is right behind. Its uncanny.

    Because if its not the above, this country is in a lot worse shape and is even more fucked if its purely a white supremacist power grab.

    PS: Everything they claim the dems do, they've already done. And what are they accusing Sleepy Woke Joe Basement Biden of being or doing now?

  • This is so fucking great. What is Tricky Team Trump Treason Tax Cheat so afraid of? I mean, he’s a billionaire, right? Why the hesitation? Afraid of being a LOSER? Or something else?

    it was one of those "a source close to the white house tells me...". could just be click bait.

    Look at the bright side.   It's been 48 hours since Trump lost something.  This is a fantastic opportunity to notch more losses. Biden is getting sworn in by Roberts in January.  At that point,  he's the president.  This will be fascinating.
