    we have started to recover. prominent republicans are not defending trump. lindsey graham has not tweeted in 24 hours. trump is an island. 

    I'd bet most of them would have cared more about when the election is decided than who wins it.  Trump wins on Tuesday, they can just keep on kissing that ring.  Biden wins on Tuesday, they can move on.

    Now? Well, obviously, if Trump wins, they want their lips on his ass. So it seems to me that the smart move is to keep them there. People will always remember the way they went to bat for Trump for four years; what's another few days or even a few weeks? But it seems they are starting to distance themselves early. If Trump wins, that could bite them.

    I think Trump truck people will be around for awhile no matter what happens, Jose.  Try not to let them get to you.  That is exactly what they want.  They are immature, (mostly) stupid, bullying, ever-grown children.  Hold you head high, avoid eye contact with them, and don't give them the time of day.  They are not worthy of your energy.

    I started this thread on election night when I thought trump would be done quickly....didn't happen, but it WILL happen....unfortunately, the horse has left the barn....as someone earlier said, it's all about fox "news", et al spewing disinformation and conspiracy theories...still, I'm damn glad the orange buffoon will lose and maybe sanity will again become the norm.

    It's over.  He is not winning.  My big question is does he just walk away before January 20th.  I picture him having a moving company show up and empty the white house of everything and he has it shipped to his new home in North Korea...it all makes sense now...or maybe it's the great joint I just smoked.

    That's not recovery, that's cowardice. Rats and sinking ships come to mind.

    Where the fuck is CYA Barr? Someone should get him on record as to whether this is what he signed up for when he floated his 20 page self written letter of recommendation. He’s worse than Possum Sessions.

    He had a tweet that said he stands with the President that we should be counting all the LEGAL votes...I'd certainly argue that he's contradicting the President.

    From what source?  People keep citing exit polls but you cannot use those this year.  I have not seen anyone that has dissected actual voting data at this point.
  • McConnell came out & said something today about 'legal votes' as well; sounds to me like they're at least keeping the window cracked to challenge the results.

    I don't have a real problem with those words.  I know it's a dog whistle, but you still have to prove it and you don't go to court to throw out 50 ballots when you're down by 50k.
