    Still no Uncle Ted. I wonder if he is donating his time to writing code to challenge the elections.
    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

      I wasn't saying that Trump was likely to win Arizona. I was saying he still has a path to win if things break his way. Nevada and Pennsylvania on the other hand were in the bag for Biden.

      State Batch Trend Hurdle
      Arizona Trump is averaging 59.3% Trump needs 57.02%
      Nevada Trump is averaging 41.9% Trump needs 60.25%
      Pennsylvania Trump is averaging 25.2% Trump needs 69.90%

          He is preparing to relentlessly defend Joe Biden and criticize his detractors in an effort to show how both parties are bad.

              Trump and his stupider supporters mocked Biden's small crowds, dismissing the preposterous (to them) idea that Biden's rallies were intentionally kept small due to COVID. It's been fun watching the huge spontaneous crowds in NYC, D.C., Atlanta, etc., rejoicing over Biden's win. Those crowds are surpassing any of Trump's confabs.

                  Just shows how big the conspiracy is.

                      Van Jones is insufferable most of the time. But dammit the first part of his response touched me. He lost me with the sister going to Walmart line. Not sure if he was really talking about his sister or making a general comment.

                        I was moved by this as well. It was a real moment where you could see his emotion, and perhaps he has had a bad experience at a Wal-Mart that is bubbling up. You can't fake that though. Unfortunately, that moment will be ridiculed and mocked.

                          I want the Pulitzer Prize to go to the journalist that documents just how the Four Seasons Landscaping Guiliani presser came to be. I hope it went down just as I think it did. What a perfect bookend to the Trump presidency.

                            I LOVE this story. The current theory is that a Trump flunky was tasked with setting up Giuliani’s presser at the Four Seasons, but lined it up at the Four Seasons Landscaping Company, conveniently located next to an adult bookstore and a crematorium. Trump tweeted that a press conference would be held at the Four Seasons, which the hotel quickly denied. The picture of Rudy addressing a sparse crowd in front of a small business is a fine finish for the campaign.

                              OMG that might be my favorite piece of real-life-parody associated with this administration. SO obvious they tried to book the Four Seasons hotel and instead booked the Four Seasons Landscaping by accident and they rolled with it. And there you have Rudy railing on like a moron in a junk-littered alley near a landscaping business wedged between a dildo emporium and a crematorium.

                              I laughed so hard thinking about this today my chest hurt.
