Biden 2021.

Anyways the answer is probably Ford. Carter will come after Biden...and will get to end with a recession and a severe environmental crisis.
Fear/savor the year 2028, folks.
We’re going into the anti-70s, not the 20s.

Nobody knows. Probably sooner in PA's case than GA's.

I think that the Supreme Court will rule that all mail in ballots are unconstitutional in a few days and thus give Donald Trump his second term.

Mail in voting has been used for more than 100 years.   That's extremely unlikely.

Rita Hart has taken the lead in Iowa-02 according to DDHQ. It's only by 151 votes, and who knows if it will stand. But I'll take it!

Nice! I would rather have saved Queen Abby though :<

World - Bolsonaro surprises and says idol Trump is not the most important person in the world

Quote
In a surprising twist, as his idolatry for the American is public, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro said this Friday that the US President, whose reelection is threatened by the huge vote of his Democratic opponent Joe Biden, is not the most important in the world. Bolsonaro, who has been trying to imitate Trump's gestures, words and actions since he took over the Brazilian presidency on January 1, 2019, even hours ago continued to say that Trump would not be re-elected if last Tuesday's US elections were rigged, but Biden's increasingly likely victory seems to have made him moderate his speech.

"I am not the most important person in Brazil, just as Trump is not the most important person in the world, as he rightly says. The most important person in the world is God, and humility must be present among us. "-Jair Bolsonaro declared in a very short speech made in Florianópolis, capital of the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina, where he went to participate in the graduation of new 650 federal highway policemen.

I don't see how they could possibly make a ruling that broad and also have it work retroactively to change the results of this election. They'd have to literally throw out every single ballot in Washington, Oregon, and Colorado, not just for the presidency, but for every office. They'd basically have to order a new election be held.

Kind of crazy how Trump did better with non-white voters than any Republican nominee since 1960 and still lost!


Shocking, really.  Trump of all people.  Very probably the most racist president in modern times.

People have talked about this and beaten it to death and hurled plenty of insults at those who explain why and give reasons that are not always 100% positive or don't seem rational (without actually refuting any points made), and the fact that this happens explains exactly why this is so hard for people to grasp. Many people just don't understand other communities or cultures, and have to see that understanding other communities and cultures is knowing the good and the bad, and understanding that seemingly irrational behavior to one person is completely normal to another. There are people I know from Mexico and Taiwan who say that there are some things they just don't understand about America/Americans because they make absolutely no sense, and when I reflect on these things, I definitely think they have a point.

In the end, people of color supporting someone as racist as Trump in larger numbers than before makes about as much sense as rural working class white voters supporting someone as far removed from the working class in rural areas as Trump. It seems irrational, and you can definitely argue that it is to an extent (or criticize the logic behind the decision), but it does pay to understand why people see things differently.

Please, educate us. NOT sarcastic here.

They have sloths counting votes and Steve Kornacki is dooming about provisional ballots possibly being heavily GOP.

They are going to use the argument that mail in voting is not referenced in the constitution as a way to throw out all mail in votes.
I'm sorry, but if you actually believe that, then you have no idea what the supreme court is or how it operates.

Yes, you've made that clear.
SCOTUS will declare all mail in ballots unconstitutional.
Among other news, the moon is blue, and cows are jumping from earth over it back to earth, and Western Ohio will sink in the Arctic.

I think that they will make that argument. In that case, the electors from Oregon and Colorado would be appointed by the Trump campaign. Once all the mail in ballots are tossed, the Republicans will win pretty much every race and accomplish their goal of overturning presidential term limits, thus allowing Donald Trump to remain in power until 2032.

Jesus Christ, this is still not over... I've been watching CNN the whole day while working and eating. I just don't see how Trump pull this off.

It's just pathetic Trump is dragging this out. According to Jim Acosta on CNN, he may continue legal fights into December, making the US a complete laughingstock. You lost Donny, deal with it.
