Trump wins electoral college by 50 votes plus. R's win Senate and House. It'll be great. Nothing better than a second Trump administration but a second Trump administration with a mandate.

But at least Joe Biden will be sure to tell us he gave it his all while American democracy burns.

I for one am waiting for Pelosi’s statement, which she has promised for this morning. If she bails, the ship is sinking. I trust her political instincts more than all of ours.

She went against him though not very stridently...odd as her progressive members are pro Biden

She left space for him to bow out is how I see it. It’s a diverse caucus. She suggested waiting until after the NATO meeting, which makes sense to me.

Dems will win the House and have a real shot at keeping the Senate. Voters are not dumping on the Dem party, it's Biden they don't want to vote for. This doesn't mean they will vote for Trump.

Right on, Colleen. Keep these doom and gloomsters focussed on the real battle, control of the legislative, even if they have decided to give up on Joe and the executive by voting for CFT, whether actively by pulling his lever (don't go psychologist on me and ask which one) or passively by not voting at all.

What sane voter would want to touch the Trump lever much less vote for him.

Your adjective saved you from a blistering reply😉, even though the concept of "sane" and someone who would want to vote for CFT is not one I can get my head around, much less a (here it comes) grip on it ... the concept, of course.

I'll have to engage in some mental masturbation in order to form an adequate reply.

It's hard to ignore poor decision-making when your cities are in rumbles and you lost another world war. The MAGAs complain about this economy while still sending money to Trump for tennis shoes and a bible.

Yep, clearly what MAGA tells pollsters about how they feel about the economy is not true.

The mandate never to stand for another election because there will be no others?

That is most certainly not knowable.
