GET OUT: US politics November 2020

Well it’s bound to be one or the other

Neanderthal, your link proves you are correct and I am wrong. Perhaps I was thinking about a lower court ruling, or maybe my brain went soft. Flip a coin.

brainworms iirc

At this point, I'm 100% convinced that republicans are stalling out of fear of their increasingly-insane constituents. Absolutely everything else aside, who on god's green earth wouldn't rather try to work alongside Biden rather than Donny Diaperdump for the next four years?

Someone who wants to finish replacing the federal judiciary with 36 year old Federalist Society slugs, probably.

misanthropic egomaniacs

Rep. Bob Notanazibuthitlerhadsomegoodideas never actually has to work alongside Trump.

I just wonder sometimes what the endgame is for these scumfucks. Like at what point do they shed their human shells and go full shoggoth, to writhe for all eternity in the hellpits of their dark master. What is the ultimate point of their fetid, joyless, life-negating existence?

they're white and rich, and self-abasement is just one of their soft skills

Owns the libs harder than they've ever been owned before.

GUNS GOD COUNTRY

I agree with @jaketapper. This is overboard & will not help us build a pluralistic democracy. I have worked with people like Matt Lira at the WH who built on Obama Admin efforts to modernize federal agencies. It would be absurd to blackball public servants like him. https://t.co/0RlGhlNQ4B

Matt Lira previously worked for Kevin McCarthy

the prev video in the thread is also lol but this made me snort laugh

Brilliant! Thanks for the talent, hard work and time you put into this. I kept waiting for a 180° to show the Dildo Store and Crematorium. pic.twitter.com/jkaWstYZDi

Missed a trick in not calling it 'between a cock and a charred place'.

wow, hats off

I salute you!

next level

funny, but y'know, the left sure knows how to lay into those blue collar areas whose votes they could use. don't mean to be a downer.

it's the gap between Trump's gilded image and where his team ended up

i don't think anybody would be cracking jokes if Biden's people deliberately held a press conference there

well, except that dildos are naturally funny. hard to get around that

I'm sure the ppl who live nearby really take pride in that commercial property strip

oh i get it and you get it, but someone who lives there might think "the left to philly: drop dead." we are hemorrhaging white votes and need to be careful of optics.

I get you but that ship has long sailed. We're elites who don't understand real Americans. Let the dunking proceed.

Nobody's ripping on any part of Philly. Jokes are about Trump Co ineptitude. If he booked an industrial parking lot in my hometown I'd welcome the mocking.

I don't want to live in a world where Four Seasons Total Landscaping can't be mocked

also a handful of furries having their digital avatars dance happily on a digital rendering of a landscaping company's parking lot is a very odd way for "the left" to disparage the working class

Good morning!

we are hemorrhaging white votes and need to be careful of optics.

isn't the whole thing that trump actually did worse with white people this time around, and better with minorities?

Thought one: Cop being filmed kneeling on the throat of an unarmed person of color: "should I worry that we may hemorrhage votes from this demographic? Maybe I should be more careful of the optics here. I dunno."

Thought two: Tracer's point is sobering. If we believe that Edison exit poll graph, Trump increased his share of minority voters. So who tf knows anything anymore.

Multi xpost, niot going to take credit for it. some genius on Twitter coined it.

Everyone getting the Trump coup vapors and defensively pre-dunking on anyone not doing the same itt should chill the fuck out.

I will admit to some low level background worry because who knows how the simulation works anymore. OTOH I am all for anything that increases the chance that I get to see Trump physically removed from the WH under the most embarrassing circumstances (i.e. no pants, full drawers, without hair weave).

...heavily sedated on a hospital gurney...

...wearing a false mustache and claiming to be a minor functionary named Nod Pmurt...

...caught trying to burrow a tunnel to one of his golf courses...

Yeah I confess I've thought about this a bit

thank you Jon for taking time to film this important video while also getting your school pictures taken https://t.co/lqLfdFIDAC

They can’t change the method of picking electors after the election has taken place. Remember, when voters showed up to vote, they technically weren’t voting for “Joe Biden” or “Donald Trump” but for a slate of electors who would vote for Biden or Trump. If Pennsylvania wanted to change those rules, it would have had to tell its voters before they voted. It can’t run a bait-and-switch on an election. It can’t say that a vote for Biden’s electors was actually a vote for the Pennsylvania legislature to choose the electors. This is an election, not a Groupon.

lol

ugh I came across that horrible showtime series Ray Donovan and it now stars Voight and James Woods !

Biden leads popular vote by 5.1 million & at 50.8%, highest % for challenger since FDR in 1932

He also leads by 149k in MI, 48k in PA, 37k in NV, 20k in WI, 14k in GA, 13k in AZ

This is decisive victory & recounts/litigation won't overturn it

B-b-but what does the Baby Jehoshaphat care about math?

Reading the WaPo this morning, it seems like a very real possibility that the driving force behind all his firings and reappointments in recent days is strictly to find a back door way to declassify intelligence he's convinced exonerates him in the Russia affair. Which of course is a big waste of time, so yeah, probably accurate.

Our latest YouGov/The Economist poll has a host of troubling findings about public confidence in the election.

Most shocking is that 86% of Trump voters say that Biden "did not legitimately win the election." 73% say that we'll "never know the real outcome of this election."

ugh

oh big surprise the idiots standing in line to drink Trump's piss believe the bullshit he's been spouting

On the other hand, of total voters, just 3% said Trump won and 13% that it was yet to be decided:

Whatever. They also thought Obama was illegitimate and that the Clintons literally murdered people.

you know what? I'm done. fuck this shit. I'm out of the pol threads for a while

Looking at the long term, it's not impossible that this echo chamber of stupidity winds up depressing GOP turnout in future elections such that they never again control anything at the federal level.

I DIDN'T SCAN EVERY SINGLE BALLOT MYSELF SO WHY SHOULD I BELIEVE THE ELECTION WAS LEGIT, HUH???
