Election Day [Week][Month[s]] [Year] 2020 follow-along thread

From the Onion:

Seriously, though, it will be good to see an intelligent, decent man as president again.

Fair enough. :wave:

It’s on CNN now. Meadows is the guy I liked to call “the shirt” because as a Congressman he never seemed to wear a jacket, preferring the “get things done” kind of shirtsleeve affectation. Though the only thing he ever seemed to get done was utter spittle-mouthed accusations against anyone daring to criticize the Orange Imbecile, while praising said imbecile to high heaven at every opportunity. Naturally his reward was not long in coming in a world where being a shameless sycophant was the top and only qualification*, and he got to be Chief of Staff (and had to start suiting up with a jacket). And then he got to have COVID, following in the footsteps of his idol.

* Being a son-in-law is the only exception.

Do you read Goody’s movie reviews. AZ Journal, I think, I grew up with him in Radford, VA. Which I am proud to say, voted for Biden, although I think most of that were student votes.

Bloomberg reporting several aides have COVID and that the White House tried to keep it quiet (on election day I assume).

Soon we will once again to be able to tell the difference between Onion headlines and actual headlines.

Do we have an estimate on when they’ll call PA?

B-b-but COVID is a Democrat hoax!! Isn’t it?

I wouldn’t have done it if he had been white. Well, I would have given my name and number, but I wouldn’t have waited because I was worried that the victim would end up in jail or dead. I’m praying that Biden will make it so I don’t have to do it again.

Duh, that’s why they didn’t tell us about it!

I’m reminded of this incident from just a couple weeks ago when he mocked the idea of wearing a mask, in a hallway interview with the reporter pool. Fuck this guy.

On MSNBC, Brian Williams quoted a Bloomberg journalist (I didn’t catch the name) who said that four other Trump aides also had tested positive, and that the WH tried unsuccessfully to keep Meadows’ diagnosis under wraps.

…and THAT’S why Joe should make him Secretary of State (until the Senate goes blue. Then he should fire him).

Yeah, and I thought we weren’t going to hear about it any longer starting Nov. 4th?

Of course they didn’t tell anyone. It kind of runs their whole narrative that we won’t hear about Covid-19 after Nov. 3.

You know, the White House people plus the 125,000 new cases.

I blame Obama.

Ugh – “ruins.” Darn short edit window.

I used to play Dungeons & Dragons and that had a spectrum of good and evil.

Trump is chaotic evil (sort of flails about and causes mayhem but there is no real goal to any of it). Like a spree murderer.

McConnell is lawful evil (everything they do is meant to make things worse on a grand scale). Like Hitler.

If he can, it raises the question of why Nixon didn’t do it, and save Gerry Ford the headache and taint.

As a longtime D&D player, I agree with this assessment of their alignments. :smiley:
