Biden v Dump 1: If not now, when? If not us, who?

[FadeToBlack&Gold]

The fear of being branded LOSER, which his f cked up father instilled in him? Harsh toilet training?

Trump is like the bigly business character from The Langoliers who slowly goes insane from hallucinatory memories of his father telling him he's late, has no time, and is a failure.

NYT article on how Dump has already blown through $800M of his $1.1B donor contributions. Brace yourself: most of the money was p-ssed away or possibly even just disappeared.

This is the first real evidence I have seen that we're actually planning for what happens when they refuse to accept reality.

They must have gotten bored with playing Dungeons and Dragons.

That actually was an interesting article. But I have to say, one of the opening sentences contained maybe the best description of I've seen of Cafe.

Sources familiar with the discussions described them as serious with a modestly panicked undertone.

They spent a bunch of money on a Nascar sponsorship for one of the bottom tier drivers and I think he has wrecked pretty much every week he has had the Trump logo on his car.

Gotta pay the interest to his Russian loan sharks somehow.

Anything is possible, although that scenario where they tell the West Coast states to threaten secession was hilarious and will never happen.

Yeah I found that article to be half pretty good and half a trixie fever dream. About what I expect from The Daily Beast...or as it seems to be these days "TPM on Energy Drinks".

Of course we live in an era where the only the GOP has as a platform is that if you elect Joe Biden the country will be as bad as it is right now...so why should the media rhetoric be any smarter? That is why Maggie Haberman and the NY Times are now sourcing and rting Breitbart.

I think Maggie knows exactly what she's doing and just enjoys trolling the Twitter left at this point.

The thing about Trump is, if you want him to say mean things about someone, all you have to do is accuse him of saying mean things about that person, or that group. His response always follows the same trajectory. First he denies, claiming he loves them and they love him. Then, when his denial doesn't get any traction, he attacks them, or those around them.

[Handyman]

Yeah...for a con man he is super easy to con. The problem is stupid people think he is doing it on purpose because they would fall for it too ;-)

Nah if that were the case she would have done it different. She spent most of the morning tweeting and rting dozens of stories to try and hide it. If she was trolling she would have left it and let it sit.

My guess is she never even read the story, just knows the writer (or someone quoted in it) and pimped it like she always does.

First, if that's original you should be legitimately proud -- it's true to the bone. :-)

Second, I want them to be reaching. I want them to at least be considering stuff that's beyond the typical institutional remedies, because the Nazis sure as sh-t are.

If they are coming up with outlandish crap that means they are at least finally outside their little bubble. They are playing an opponent who will not just kick over the board but take the opponent's children hostage. I am so sick of the Dems bringing a hot dish to a gun fight.

My guess is 97% of the stuff was dry legal argumentation so the reporter highlighted the wild stuff to keep THE KEEEDS' interest.

Except that Infowars or some other nutball site doxxing the electors in the event of a close result is plausible.

And the West Coast secession is a least rooted in plausiblity. It definitely wouldn’t go as they say but I could see serious movement towards if things go to s-.
