This is why you should vote in person.

Trump is a sore loser. When the crowds have gone home and the lights have turned out and the underpaid sanitary workers are cleaning up his fans' junk off the fields, and his handlers and syncophants have returned to their D.C. apartments, and he is all alone and takes off his makeup and wig and sees his overweight 73-year old bald head and shriveled up body parts in the mirror, it drives him nuts. It drives him nuts that he never had a more than 50% average approval rating during his entire term. It drives him nuts that he is the only president in a generation not to win re-election. It drives him nuts that he is the only president in American history to have lost the popular vote twice. It drives him nuts that he never got the respect of the media, which he secretly craves above all else. It drives him nuts that, despite everything that has happened since 2011, the same old D.C. crowd that laughed at him at the 2011 WHCD still looks down on him and still thinks he's a joke. This is why, despite it all, he cannot admit defeat. The only thing that terrifies me is what crazy evil this unstable man will unleash in his final 56 days of power.

The Democrats need to use all these fraud claims as a chance to submit federal legislation to move locales towards paper ballots/paper trails and scientific auditing to improve election security. If there's any moment Republicans might agree to it, it's around now...

A Republican state senator in North Carolina is doubling down after making comments on social media paraphrasing a retired general who called on President Trump to invoke the rarely-used Insurrection Act and suspend civil liberties such as habeas corpus.

State Sen. Bob Steinburg (R) reportedly called for the president to invoke the act and declare the results of the 2020 election invalid in a Facebook post paraphrasing Air Force lieutenant general Thomas McInerney (ret.), writing: “President Trump must declare a national emergency,” adding that “Trump should also invoke the Insurrection Act.”

So far these calls for martial law/Insurrection Act/military coup have been limited to fringe wingnuts and random R state legislators. But I'm sure these are getting in Trump's ear and who knows what he will try when he gets this idea in his head...

The military isn't going to back Trump.

Thank god the BLM movement is anti-police and not anti-military. But given how self-destructive the left has been, I wouldn't be surprised to see #AllTroopsAreBastards and #DefundTheMilitary start trending on Twitter one of these days.

Trump is unstable. He could crack up at any moment. He needs to be removed by the 25th Amendment and let Pence oversee the transition.
