The 2020 Presidential General Election thread

Obvious fake - too coherent to be Trump.

This is like inventing time travel just to go back and watch a show you missed.

On Netflix.

Hey. That stops right here. I have actually shed tears when losing at Uno. Do not compare him to me.

Welcome back, America. Congrats to Joe Biden and especially Kamala Harris. Groundbreaking, you go girl!

Now get ready for the worst as that is yet to come. The petulant child is so not done. Guess we'll find out if there are still some adults around him. I doubt it; he's chosen his spitlickers quite well. So... be ready.

Trump must be going apeshit.

This was really powerful:

Someone needs to redo this with Joe, Kamala, and other Dems

March 11th was not pre-pandemic. China and Italy were already in lockdown, numbers were rising in the US, and it was only a couple of days until quite a few other countries were in lockdown as well. March 11th was just before a lot of Americans started taking the pandemic seriously. (While noting that quite a few still haven't...)

A lot of people were already predicting it. It was only two weeks later that I was being criticized by those unable to understand something as complicated as a conditional statement that if no measures were taken in the US, there would be a million deaths by the end of April. That curve was already obvious in mid-March, and it was already obvious that Trump was completely incapable of dealing with the situation. Don't you remember him prediciting at the end of February that "within a few days" there wouldn't be any more cases at all in the US?

And yet Biden's standing in the polls, compared to Trump, hardly moved from a year before the election. Which means that the pandemic solidified a lot of people in their position, but didn't actually change all that much. (Though it undoubtedly did have some effect among undecideds. But it is impossible to know how many of those undecideds would have ultimately made the same decision even without the election.) It's not for nothing that from very early on, I was already collecting posts of people confidently predicting that Trump would win. It simply wasn't what Trump's popularity was showing.

This is absolutely true. And it shows why it was ridiculous to pretend that it was clear Trump would win re-election. It was possible to hold such a position only by pretending that he was much more popular than he was.

On this we agree 100%. Unfortunately...

For the first time in four years, my balls are finally moist, not because of @Tuttle's mouth, but because I am constantly cumming. Four years is a lot of edging.

I'm not aware of any "Special Edition".

STATEMENT FROM PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

Rupert Murdoch-owned US outlets turn on Trump, urging him to act with 'grace'


Oh, and greetings from General Martok:

Lol - he should "show the same restraint he did at the Savannah Guthrie Town Hall" - he shouted over her and spent the next few days attacking her on Twitter!!

I doubt this will have much effect, to be honest - it plays into his hands, more than anything: big corporations are against him and thus the "people". He'll decamp to OAN or set up his own fucking "news" network on the promise of Truthiness. Like Alex Jones but with a bigger gut, more psychological issues and even less filter - but a bigger deranged audience.

Never forget that Trump was voted for by almost half the population. Despite everything. Those people will not simply go away. They will only radicalize because whatever Biden/Harris do or propose will be seen as SOCIALISM!

How to change that, no idea. Sit it out for the next 50 years and let them die out I guess.

This, coming from someone who tweeted he was the winner less than a half hour before the news media declared Biden the winner...

Anyway, despite my worries regarding the future of the country I can allow myself one day of elation.

It's not even that - it's the "X did this and got punished, but Y did this and it's OK, whhhhyyyyy?" moral equivalence shit the right always try and fucking pull.

This is supposedly the Four Seasons Landscaping that Trump is going to be speaking at.

EDIT: @Tuckerfan see below. Press conference was already held. Video at the link

Doesn't seem to be getting much coverage in the lamestream media, but Rudy Giuliani held a press conference in Philadelphia at the Four Seasons this morning where he trotted out a few Republican Poll Observers who said they will testify under oath that they were not given access to view ballots:

BTW, the press conference was held at Four Seasons Total Landscaping Company, not the Four Season hotel.

No sinkings as of yet...

Well that’s not entirely accurate. Someone can check my numbers but the US population is currently ~328 million. Of that population, ~240 million are eligible to vote? I wasn’t able to find an exact number. Of that, ~71 million voted for Trump.

So about 30% eligible voters went for Trump. Still alarming however.

Yub Nub!

Congrats to the winners.

We’re all winners today.

I guess you feel the country has lost something. I hope you change your mind.

IIRC, to be fair, that was the low end of the initial estimates:

World leaders, breathing a sigh of relief, wasted no time in congratulating the new president- and vice president-elect:

Something is happening inside the Trump campaign. Yesterday, I was getting texts every two hours from them. Starting at about 8 AM and ending at about 8 PM. (Prior to this, I was getting texts from them as late as about 11:30 PM.) Today? I’ve only gotten 3, and they didn’t start until almost 10 AM.
