Is Trump gonna try and take the party down with him? One can hope… In fact, one can hope that, after this election, he’ll be so furious he starts his own party. My God, what a wonderful world that would be! ---

A pundit I am watching just noted that Trump spent almost all of his time calling the election into question. A person who thinks he is winning doesn’t do that. It only undermines the legitimacy of their win (if they won). ---

Jake Tapper just made a point that I was thinking earlier today, that every county in every state is conspiring to unseat him. Even the ones run by Republicans. ---

For what it’s worth, Foxnews is reporting this relatively fairly that Trump is going to lose fair and square, and his court cases appear nonsensical. ---

Biden now needs less than 60% of the remaining vote to take Georgia. He’s been averaging 67.45% today. Trump’s lead has been cut to 3,635. There are just under 20k votes left to count. ---
