Looks like that we've got a winner. It is not official yet, but I'm pretty sure that Biden has won.

Even after all the dishonest shit the Republicans did through voter suppression, voter intimidation, disenfranchising voters, lying, etc. they didn't get the presidency. Unfortunately they still got a lot of state level seats.

And they will litigate and create chaos as long as possible.  But Biden will win.  I believe.

What will the litigation and chaos buy them? Especially when the accusations are unfounded. The best they can do is delay the inevitable with recounts.

Frightened little trumpanzees are having a frenzied meltdown as there kings kool aid bowl is running dry.

How will they get on with life? Who will tell them what to think? And when to think it? Who will console their fragile little ego? Who will favor them for being such perfect little lapdogs?

I'm not celebrating until after the EC votes.  They screwed us over once, they can do it again.  The 2016 election had a total of 7 "faithless electors" (5 of them Dems) who voted for candidates not even on the ballot, wasting their votes on symbolism.

I am of the same set of fears Sandy.  If the blue side does not receive well past the obligatory 270, there is at least some possibility that the EC could blow up the whole damned process.

Some positive arguments can be made for the Electoral College system.  On the other hand It is hard for me to grant Wyoming or South Dakota as much deciding power as Texas, California, or Florida.

If he's still around in four years, it wouldn't surprise me if he's on the Republican ticket.

In fact I expect that if the machinery works the way it's intended and he leaves in January, it will be as a candidate for 2024. Why not? It will give him a considerable level of gratification to continue to get constant attention from the media and bask in the slavish devotion of the Trumpists.

What disappoints me is the number of Latinos in Texas who went for Trump.  They basically handed him the victory here.  The GOP successfully tattooed the Dems with the "Socialist" label and it apparently scared Cubans in Florida and Tex-Mex Latinos here.
I'm disappointed, as well. I don't understand why. As a Latina, I apologize for this. Only bad words come to mind if I try to find the words to describe The Latino Trump Supporters. Sadly, they sell their soul thinking they will be accepted by those who hate them and the sad truth is that most of the time they are never accepted, and the other side now sees them as traitors. Traitors to their honor, self-respect, traditions, and dignity.

We need to do a lot of work in that area.  :felix:

Now that Biden has won I expect Trump to go out like a spoiled brat kicking and screaming.
