Spot on from Bill Maher, as usual.

As I have long said, @Pfizer and the others would only announce a Vaccine after the Election, because they didn’t have the courage to do it before. Likewise, the @US_FDA should have announced it earlier, not for political purposes, but for saving lives!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 10, 2020

If Joe Biden were President, you wouldn’t have the Vaccine for another four years, nor would the @US_FDA have ever approved it so quickly. The bureaucracy would have destroyed millions of lives!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 10, 2020

The @US_FDA and the Democrats didn’t want to have me get a Vaccine WIN, prior to the election, so instead it came out five days later – As I’ve said all along!

I would love it if his twitter followers day by day just dwindled to zero.

UNDERSTANDING TRUMP’S COUP STRATEGY

Although everything currently unfolding has been predicted far in advance, denialism continues to flourish. Many people are drawing incorrect conclusions with regard to Trump’s strategies and discounting the crisis before us.

Then, the election will be booted to the House of Representatives, where Republicans control a majority of state delegations.

His chokehold on rightwing popular opinion will in turn help to incapacitate members of the GOP from defecting—because doing so would be political suicide.

When a political party lines up behind an autocrat, an attorney general authorizes investigations of voter fraud, and a defeated leader replaces the Secretary of Defense shortly after an election, the ruler is not having a mere temper tantrum.

46% of Republicans saying "some people are not smart enough to vote". Irony is dead.

I think he's trying to make some interesting points but that thread's all over the fudging place.

There's always a tweet, part 2749

The Green Party just dropped its recount suit in Pennsylvania and is losing votes in Wisconsin recount. Just a Stein scam to raise money!

No surprise with Trumps reaction hes now being coached how to hold onto power by Putin, if a few million have to die it's a price hes prepared to pay.

I'm not sure he knows what point he's trying to make here.

For once, he was right there. Her challenge funding was a scam to raise money for other campaigns.

Trump will be gone from politics in a couple of months. They need to stay electable to survive.

I think it's telling that Trump's closest allies are shouting loudly, whilst the party structure are keeping more quiet. I'm sure they'll take the win if Trump could steal it but I don't think they'll kill their careers over him.

The GOP is littered with people worried about their own immediate futures. There is a strong rumor that the only reason McConnell and Barr are taking the public positions they have is because Trump told McConnell he'd brick all overt his GA senate run-off battles if he didn't get behind him, and Barr was informed by McConnell of this. Barr could stop it all; he is the AG, not a Trump employee (albeit he has been used like one) and I think he is currently hedging his bets between blowing Trump and making sure he doesn't "exactly endorse" what Twitler's doing. But for me, there are many in the GOP who need to be given a similar kicking to twitty-hitty!

The polarization is recognized.
The desperation too.
As is his wish to establish a firm right-wing opposition to anything which happens in the US going forward under Biden.
He would love to start a civil war which would see macarons "defending his honor" but I don't see it happening.
One thing no-one has mentioned is that he could well be receiving support to challenge from the likes of Putin, who would benefit from the potential breaches in security which will occur the longer a Biden transition team is denied access.

What an American politician in a funding scandal, surely not.

Am I right in saying that this video was taken a week ago in California, a state that always takes its time to count all ballots and is >90% Democrat?

But the video was circulating yesterday, with an implication that these ballots were not counted, in one of the VERY tight states?

I believe you are 100% correct in your assertion.
