Trump is embarrassing himself at the moment. Go home, your time's up.

I personally can't wait for the woke to go back to sleep and not be outraged by the injustices that will be undoubtedly committed under Biden's watch, and it will be fine because his demeanor will be "presidential"

The US has lost no matter what, the World looks on in disbelief that half of the country still wants the most dishonest President in living memory in power, such a wounded country

Well I dont think the world will see the US as much better with an old confused man in charge. Maybe countries will not take advantage of them out of sympathy? I dont think so though. They will probably rejoin the Paris climate deal and pay billions more than any other country. China is pretty much off the hook. The world is back to seeing the US as their piggy bank. Could be worse I guess.

Yes, let's analyze it according to facts.

If Biden wins, he is president and Trump is not. 

Biden wins in this scenario. 

I look at the House numbers and it could end up Biden vs Congress. Dems losing seats front, left, right and back....

By left right and back... you mean 5 right? Cause that's how many. 

Control of the house has already been called. It really can't end up in republican control.

Senate is more interesting. Both races in Georgia are going to runoffs, so if Democrats can win both they still have a slim chance at control there if they win the presidence.



Georgia senate: Perdue has been at 49.9% for a while now, so his race is most likely going to a runoff as well. If Dems win the two Georgia runoffs, they get to 50-50 in the Senate, with the VP (at the rate Pennsylvania is going, it will be Harris) breaking ties.

Whoever wins, it will be a hollow victory at this point.

I dunno, I think both would have accomplished something pretty big with a victory.

if Biden wins, he will have defeated an incumbent president, which historically is pretty rare.  

if trump wins, he would have overcome a landslide of negative opinion polls to pull it off.  Not to mention be the only president (I believe) to lose the popular vote twice and still win.

in both scenarios, those are pretty big accomplishments!

BTW, with Pennsylvania, Kornacki ran the numbers: 250k mail-in ballots left to be counted, Biden's winning those statewide by (or with?) 76%, which would let him take the lead and end up winning by 50-60k.

Yeah, Im sure if Trump wins, people and the media will applaud his accomplishment...

Far and away the strongest point you've made so far.

Thanks. I'm trying my best to make as much effort in my posts as you do, since my arguments were clearly weak.

*sigh*. I wonder how Rol isn't a mod at this point.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I’m sure half of them will.  If trump has done anything really well, it is dividing people.  His half would love it, not matter how he won.
