Are we at the point when we can post all the memes/gifs?

I was honestly just wondering how long this thread will be by the time it’s called.

2,020 pages

Seriously though when is the next ballot release?

I'm going to lose my mind.

Seems like it might be a while until it becomes more official, ugh.  From NYT:

Nate Cohn, in New York 7m ago
Don’t expect a call soon on Georgia. It’s tight, and the secretary of state said there would be a recount. This one might not be called until the results are certified.

Dave Philipps, in Las Vegas 50m ago
Nevada’s Clark County, home to Democratic stronghold Las Vegas, still has 63,000 ballots to be counted. So far every update from Clark has helped Biden. Next update by 7 p.m. ET.

Nick Corasaniti, in Philadelphia 1:10 PM ET
Philadelphia officials said that the remaining 40,000 ballots there fall into three categories: they require review, are provisional or are from military or overseas voters.

Jennifer Medina, in Phoenix 12:08 PM ET
Mike Noble, a Phoenix-based pollster, told me: “That’s a wrap for the presidential contest in AZ. Trump needed almost 60% on this ballot drop, he got very low 50s. #Ballgame.”

ETA:

So...
NV:  next batch of votes before 7pm ET (could be called after that?)
AZ:  Maricopa County's next update is 9pm ET (could be called after that?)
PA:  ??
GA:  not likely to be called anytime soon.

It's looking to me like we still may not have a call before Harris & Biden speak tonight?

[tessalb]

Just wondering how many people currently in the administration are going to slowly come out claiming to be coffee boys and girls.

My first guess is Jaren and Ivanka. Hahahahahaha

HE BETTER NOT PUT HIS FEET UP ON THE DESK. FOR FUCKS SAKE, BE A PRESIDENT

I have a slight fear Trump will steal the desk in the oval office as he's moving out.

Does anyone know when we can expect more updates?

Nevada said they’d update again by 4pm. I think that’s pacific time.

Ughhhhhh.  Please don't tell me I'm going to have to go to bed again without this thing being called.

Anyone know what's the latest on PA?

This should be required viewing for the board, especially if you want to kill some time while waiting for the official results. Watch until at least 8:30. It is powerful. Stephen Colbert is a national treasure!

I predict that after Trump finally accepts his defeat (maybe not until the EC votes in December?) he will stop even pretending to govern. He will destroy anything he can on his way out, then run away to Florida, refuse to do anything but rage tweet and golf, and stay there until after the inauguration.

We are currently under a continuing resolution until Dec 11th, so the lameduck session will have to pass funding or the government will shutdown. For a while.

She was with him before this. She’s not going anywhere.

I think it may be influenced by the prenup.

I wouldn’t be surprised if she stays married to him (unless he finally has to start paying for his criminal activity) but I think she may go back to NYC and he will go to Florida.

MSNBC says the GOP has asked SCOTUS to block late ballots in PA. Is this something we should be concerned about?

I hope he does and I hope Fox news covers it extensively because that's all they can find wrong in the new administration.

This maybe I could see. But she is no better than him, she married him.

They're going to want to stay married so they can't be called upon to testify against each other - I would bet a million Stanley nickels that's in their prenup.  So I doubt they'll divorce, but I bet they live apart for however long it takes for her to officially become a widow.

Whatever keeps them both miserable is my only wish for them.

Whoa there are prenups that say you can’t get divorced?
I wonder what happens if you just say fuck if, I’m filling papers. I know in the state I got divorced if after X amount of time if the other party didn’t sign the judge would still grant you a divorce.
That sounds like a horrible prenup to sign!

We watched this earlier today - so good and powerful. I cried at this too. Not a surprise. I've cried a bunch today.

Donald Trump’s former campaign manager Brad Parscale expects to sign a lucrative book deal, a development that’s rattled some members of the president’s team, according to three people familiar with the matter.

Parscale, one of Trump’s closest and most trusted allies for nearly a decade, has told multiple people he is writing a book. Some of the president’s advisers are concerned Parscale could reveal damaging information about Trump and his family, the people said.

These fucking grifters and their books. There are going to be so many rats releasing books about how “I tried to stop him and I was so concerned!!!” once it’s clear Trump is finished.

Yeah I was wondering if trump would ever be able to return to nyc.

I’m totally laughing that it seems as though he’s pretty much ruined his life. Sure he still I guess has money, but there’s no way he can run in the same circles as he did before at that level with the same credibility. I hope he just lives a sad lonely life in a bunker in FL. Idiot.

Late as in, mailed by Election Day but received in the three days afterward?  I guess I am not overly concerned.

The article someone posted above (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/11/06/trumps-path-electoral-victory-is-disappearing-so-are-his-legal-avenues/) goes over some of Trump's possible legal avenues to challenge a Biden electoral victory.  The thing is... firstly, Biden might have a large enough margin in PA to win even if the postmarked-by, received-after election day ballots are discounted.  Secondly, even if Trump were to somehow win PA, I don't think it would change the overall outcome.  AZ and NV look reasonably secure.  The theory to discount ballots in PA is different form a theory that could be useful in another state, so Trump's legal team would need to figure out a completely different theory for invalidating at least 2 other state's outcomes to get to 270.  He'd need PA + AZ + NV to hit 269 by my math, or PA + GA + AZ (279), or PA + GA + NV (274).  

I just don't see that coming to pass.

That cat doesn't look pleased to be bouncing around in there. But then again, when do cats look pleased with anything?

Except he doesn’t have money. He owes someone 421 million dollars. And without the power of the presidency, when that comes due he’s going to be fucked.

I don’t know. I feel like rich white guys figure things out like he’s been doing his whole life, and don’t face consequences. I’m not holding my breath that he’s gonna end up in jail or destitute on the street, so I’ll just go with in a bunker in Florida with not many friends! But hopefully I’m wrong.
