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

I’ve read that the only time she wears makeup is when she’s on her show, and that the black blazer she always wears is an inexpensive one, which stays in the studio. She doesn’t care for dressing up at all.

NBC has him at 273 (no AZ yet.) I’m glad to hear that one’s looking good for him too.

@Spice_Weasel: I just realized what your new icon is. Love it!

Hey, call me crazy, but I really like Joe Biden and massively prefer him as president than Hilary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, or many others.

I believe Biden is:

  • a good man
  • a great leader
  • truly inspirational
  • the real deal
  • willing to work with everyone

I fully supported Clinton, but I am THRILLED a man like Joe Biden will be president.

I want to thank ALL OF YOU GUYS for so obsessively crunching the numbers these past several days. IMO this stupid thread on these stupid boards was the BEST aggregation of the most up-to-date data and analysis.

Good on ya!

Rhetorical, amirite?

Yes, thanks to all of you. This thread has been my best experience on the Dope.

I think the timing of the call was fortunate. Saturday morning, when lots of those most prone to impulsive acts might still be dealing with their hangovers. When people have nearly two full days to get over the first shock while they’re spread out at home.

This is why it had to be Joe. It needs an INSIDER. Someone who knows how it works. Politics is “the art of the possible.” Joe is not someone who raises his colleagues’ hackles. This can work.

This is one of the very sweetest parts of this whole thing.

“I’ve got a Donald Dump… Drunk…Tump…Chump…something-or-other on the phone. Will you take the call?”

“Never heard of the guy!”

I heartily second this sentiment. This thread kept me sane over the past several days. Thanks everybody!!!

OMG… the WH is going to be a civilized, gracious place again. Inhabited by Grownups with good manners. And good taste. I feel like I’m melting into happiness…

Yes. Thank you, everyone!

Me too. Watching Futurama as I type, too…

It will be interesting to see what the stock market does on Monday morning.

I’m sure they are hearing the cheering.

Joe Biden is the slow and steady guy. No flash just quiet competence. Thankfully he has all the play books from the transition to help him put government back together and hopefully get some of the really good people back who left during trump.

Trump’s last Tweet from 2 hours ago:

“I WON THIS ELECTION, BY A LOT!”

So, we can expect a concession soon, right? /sarcasm

Curious–is the crowd in the Black Lives Matter Plaza bigger than Trump’s inauguration crowd?

As for the portrait: hang Trump’s with a tiny, perfunctory ceremony with the blandest possible language. Don’t give him the satisfaction of attention.

Save the attention for his arraignments.

This is the closest I’ll ever watch Fox News, right now.
:grinning:

We don’t need flash and charisma right now. We don’t need a big ego or a showman/person. Joe is exactly what we need!

Well, it’s evening here, so I had a shot of Tullamore Dew to celebrate. Then I remembered that it’s the American elections, and chased it with a shot of Jim Beam.

Then I remembered I have to work tonight. Shit.
