So are we thinking something is going to be actually called tonight or… just kind of killing time?

4156

I tend to agree with this take a little more than some of the more, uh, loud takes I’ve seen.

4157

I’m wondering a bit about that. Like if Trump’s not on the ticket and there is a bit of a civil war on the right with Fox not backing up Trump, does that depress turnout on the right?

GA is so close obviously it is going for recount.

Hello 2000! Y2K bug Covid19 is gonna kill us all!

I wish I lived in DC right now. As soon as it is called, I drive down to the White House and have a party with whoever else wanted to join me!

4161

If something is called, it won’t be in GA or PA I don’t think.

What could happen is that when Maricopa County Arizona drops its ballot cluster tonight, if Trump hasn’t gained enough from it or has even lost some ground, other networks could call AZ in that scenario.

And then they’ll likely feel no qualms about calling Nevada.

Wasn’t “Maricopa” Gerardo’s follow-up to “Rico Suave”?

4165

I’ve seen enough.

4166

I think - ok, maybe hope - once Biden takes the lead in PA, we may see it and NV get the call. Historically I gather FOX likes to be first among the networks to make a call so it might well come from them (all the more so as Murdoch seems to be done with trump.)

4167

Wow, the knives are coming out. The fascists smell the stink of loser.

4168

LOL the last few seconds of that clip. “Are you being a sore loser?”

4169

I’m on Team Skinner.

I’d caution, though, that there is a difference between basically the party elites and the true believers in the base.

I am extremely relieved that there is no sign that Republicans in power positions are lining up to follow him into this reckless stuff. But that does not address a long term problem with less sophisticated sorts who will feel entitled to resist by any means.

4171

LOL…

NY style IS pizza.

I’ve had some pretty good Chicago style “pizzas” but never one as good as a solid NY style. And a perfect NY style? No contest.

I do like Sicilian with the edges done right. It’s not pizza either, but it’s pizza adjacent and some Sicilians are amazing.

Red Wine over white almost always. Dunno why I’m adverse to white, but it’s just a palate thing.

If good BBQ sauce is wrong I don’t wanna be right. I’ve actually had my best luck with BBQ in some places that looked like dumps. I will try any place in a weird building with a beaten-up old sign showing a bad drawing of a pig. It’s just science.

I swear to God, I feel strangely calmer as the Orange One is fading away. And oh… can I hope that he spends the rest of his existence getting hammered in the court system? Please?

You’re right Dr. Frankenstein, we should do something about that monster!

4174

Right.

But it kiiiiiiiiinda seems like Rupert Murdoch has had enough of Trump. That NY Post headline, that Fox News immediately and unequivocally said “Everything the president just said is bullshit” immediately after…
