Trump - 4 more years of this at least...

Maybe (to stretch a metaphor I am really unqualified to comment on) you could view the US Supreme Court as like the All Blacks - or maybe like the Super rugby franchises. Some are better than others, some worse, but all are assisted by a legion of more or less unknown and unheralded people - some of whom go off to play in other (lesser) leagues, some of whom you never hear of again, some of whom who eventually get their shot with more or less success.

Hmmm. didnt think that through did I - because the obvious next sentence is "All of them though are chasing the dollars......"..... Hmmmmmm

This is a statement by the Trump administration.

He does a good rant.

Oh dear, oh dear, yet another Trump lawsuit bites the dust.

Then election officials release this joint statement.

It is a tough gig proving widespread fraud when there is none

What a sad, sad man Trump is. Though pretty sure he will concede before Demonlord does

But, hey, why not one more grift for the road, and it is against his dim witted base who by now should realize Trump eventually always turns on those that support him. So if course he would see these suckers as being the best group to suck the blood out of as he exits the whitehouse door. Lucky for these idiots that Trump has small hands, because he is mounting them and going for it

Over 130 Secret Service agents are currently afflicted with Corona virus following Trump's last minute electioneering tour.

The final numbers are in: Biden 306 - Trump 232. Four years ago Trump boasted 306 was a landslide, he's been very quiet this year.

There's just one lingering concern. It's assumed that the "electors" of the electoral college will vote in line with the election reults in their state. In some states that is law, in others it is not. It is known that Trump has asked the govenor of Pennsylvania, and possibly others, for their electors to give him their vote regardless of the election result.

It's thought that the governor of Pennsylvania may have been considering this, but Biden's margin is such that it wouldn't make any difference. We'll see.

Funny how quite a few of them use word for word the exact same paragraphs in different areas when they're all done by different individuals, you'd just about think they had a template to work off

Trump reportedly can't distinguish between a public relations campaign and legal action so he has appointed Rudy Giuliani to manage it all. What could possibly go wrong?

Well, his hair could suddenly go grey.....

This weekend's pro-Trump marches could be interesting. If there's a conflict with anti's, remember Trump's put loyalists in the Pentagon.

Wonder if the military would actually refuse an unlawful order ?

I watched Trump’s speech yesterday. The part where he was saying the vaccine would be rolled out to everywhere except New York didn’t immediately click. He made a comment to the effect that if the mayor contacted him and requested the vaccine, supply could be arranged.

Apparently he’s up to his old quid pro quo games. If The New York AG and DA drop their investigations into his finances, NY will get the vaccine.

Just as well he’ll be history before the vaccine is available.

This is interesting. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/13/u...ity-trump.html

Not sure who was responsible for establishing this agency, but it does explain why there were so few real problems. (You should be able read a couple of articles here before the paywall kicks in.)

I also read somewhere that a number of the tech billionaires paid for hundreds of millions worth of equipment for counting postal ballots after Trump blocked government funding.

The NY Times are not obliging me. Is the general gist of teh item similar to this?
