Armed protesters have also taken over the Capitol buildings in GA and KS.

Can the Congress decide to meet somewhere else to conclude the count?

They can fly to Austria and complete the count here if they want.

In case you worry:

I have saved all 102 election certificates of each state as PDFs, in case the Trump mob destroys the originals and duplicates.

Just noticed that they played this 1984-style dystopian video from the Lansing rally before Trump spoke and before they stormed the Capitol.

This video is an incitement of hatred and contributed to the storming.

How does the nuclear code thing actually work in practice ?

Trump cannot launch a nuclear missile just with his own code, right ?

There needs to be another and/or 3rd person present (VP, Defense Minister), correct ?

The fact that we are even debating this and the inquiry from Pelosi shows how mentally ill Trump really is and how he’s turned the US into a failed state and Banana Republic similar to Somalia, Syria, Afghanistan or Venezuela ...

Quinnipiac (monthly), Jan. 7-10, 1239 RV

Approve 33 (-11)
Disapprove 60 (+9)

Strongly approve 26 (-10)
Strongly disapprove 54 (+7)

This is almost the worst showing ever for Trump in this poll; he was at 33/61 in July 2017.

The net change of 20 points since last month is extraordinary.  I don't recall ever seeing a shift that large.

60% think Trump is undermining democracy; 34% think he is protecting it.

53% think Trump should resign; 43% don't.

52% think Trump should be removed; 45% don't.

45% think Trump is mentally stable; 48% don't.



Quinnipiac was the most horrific pollster of 2020.

They were off by 13 points in OH, by 10 in FL and by 7 US-wide.

Trump’s probably down to around 40% right now.
