I submit Sen. Kevin Cramer’s response to the vote today:
Well, it seems to me that being elected by the Electoral College is a threshold where a title like that is probably most appropriate and it’s, I suppose you can say official — if there is such a thing as official president-elect, or anything else–elect. And there’s an inauguration that will swear somebody in and that person will be the president of the United States, but whether you call it that or not, you know, there are legal challenges that are ongoing — not very many — probably not a remedy that would change the outcome but, so, I don’t — again I don’t know how politician refers to another politician, but it does look to me like the big race is really between the inaugural committee and the Justice Department at this point, so we’ll see how the emails turn out.
maybe he should run for Miss South Carolina Teen USA with answers like that.
Also, Sen. Barrasso from Wyoming who thinks “Who is the president-elect?” is a “gotcha question.” Wyomians? Wyomingers? you deserve better.
Senator Kevin Cramer, when asked if Biden is President-elect:

Paul Behrends, longtime aide to ex-Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, who was forced to resign from the House Foreign Affairs subcommittee after his connections with Russian operatives was revealed, was found dead on the streets near his home, with an injury to his head. His family says it was an accident, and there were no signs of foul play, but they weren’t there when he died.
Funny, sounds like Seth Rich, but why aren’t the conspiracy theories popping up?
This is for all the Stupid Republicans who aren’t this guy.
I honestly expected Republicans to head for the exits when our national nightmare first began, but (with just a few exceptions) they mostly went all in with President Stable Genius. May they carry him like an albatross forever.
Update: The Supreme Court refused cert. on Box v. Henderson. This keeps the 7th Circuit’s ruling that Indiana sucks, I mean that Indiana shouldn’t discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation in birth certificates. A win for the good guys.
As for “faith” - fortunately, no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States. Or something like that.
To be fair, the article doesn’t mention Mr. Aguirre’s political party affiliation, but I’m feeling like it’s a safe bet that this is right at home in this thread; this is bizarre and downright scary:
