  1. Or maybe the disease, e.g 250,000 Americans have died from the Trump-19.
  2. Too late for that. Election day has already passed. https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2020/11/18/voters-pick-president-state-legislatures-no-veto-power-column/6311981002/ "As well as giving the state legislatures the power to set “the manner” by which electors are chosen, the Constitution also gives Congress the power to decide the day (the Constitution actually says “time”) on which electors are to be appointed. That day this year was Nov. 3. And if any state selected its slate of electors on a day other than Nov. 3, it would violate federal law, and that slate could therefore not be counted." One thing SCOTUS has been pretty consistent about is that last-minute changes in procedures are not allowed. If a state has enacted a statute that says the candidate with the most vote gets that state's electors, the legislature has delegated the authority and can't change it back on a whim.
  3. When the movie comes out, I will be thoroughly pissed if this man does not play Rudy.
  4. I'm thinking maybe a virtual library rather than a brick and mortar building. Something linked to an online university. It will consist of thousands of tweets which are searchable by date and topic.
  5. Info here: https://www.pamd.uscourts.gov/ Public phone-in for audio. Limit of 4000 lines. No re-broadcast permitted. Good luck.
  6. Saw this on Texags, and it fully encapsulates the disconnect that the Trumpsters have with reality: "This whole mess is especially bothersome in a state like Georgia with a Republican governor, Republican secretary of state, and Republican legislature. Couldn't they have anticipated some of these election shenanigans and taken steps to head them off?" Occam's razor in reverse. Biden wins in a state completely under the control of the GOP. Rather than concede the obvious - that Biden got more votes - the conclusion is that the Dems cheated and all the Republican officials just let it happen.
  7. Yeah, he's probably wishing he hadn't donated his salary the last 4 years.
  8. It doesn't directly. But consider the effect on state legislative delegations, resulting in Republican majorities even though many have a majority of Democratic voters. A lot of right-wing crazies want states to refuse to certify the vote and the legislative body appoint electors. They are also floating the notion that the House (with a majority of Republican delegations) might end up electing the President.
  9. For Trump, the election is like playing golf. Once you get to the number you want, just stop counting.
  10. Pa. statute requires ballots to arrive by close of election day. Pa. Supreme Court granted an equitable 3 day extension to that. Issue is whether the extension is invalid, so ballots received after election day don't count.
  11. I can see the Trump campaign filing a bankruptcy case, trying to consolidate all of the lawsuits before the bankruptcy judge, and claiming that the automatic stay prevents the states from certifying the results.
  12. First rally to be held at the Ritz Carlton Plumbing Supply in Scranton.
  13. I'm fine with that. He can do less damage on the golf course. I expect him to play 5 times a week from here on out.
