the 2020 election may have gone to Trump had even a fraction showed up and voted for the president in a few swing states.

If we had ham we could have ham and eggs for breakfast, if we had any eggs.

The news media does not pick the winner.

[jon-nyc]

You’re right. We voters picked Biden. The media is just reporting the fact.

[Larry]

It's yet to be proven that the voters actually picked Biden.

Thanks for this update, Jon.

@Larry

You’ve moved from denial to bargaining, with occasional signs of decathexis.

That’s progress.

Dream on, Alice. I'll send you a get well card when Biden loses and they have to commit you.

[jon-nyc]

Pennsylvania, Nevada, MN, and NC certify their results.

And you think that's the end of that, huh.....

[jon-nyc]

Pretty much.

Trump’s antics will continue. But that’s all they are at this point.

I do hope he appeals his PA case to Scotus. I’m not yet tired of watching him lose.

[Larry]

Whatever will you do when you find out he lost?

[jon-nyc]

In Scotus? Laugh my ass off and post about it here.

[Axtremus]

Think Trump will tweet about "taking back" his nominations for some or all of the three justices he nominated to the Supreme Court after he loses his election case there? That will be hilarious to watch.

[Doctor Phibes]

He could always try and pack the SCOTUS between now and January. Steve Bannon, Glenn Beck, Ann Coulter....

That would be hilarious too, probably more so considering Ann Coulter is glad that Trump lost.

You and Trump are playing two different board games.

I think that's true. @jon-nyc is happy just to see Trump loses, maybe get a few more laughs at Trump's expense if Trump continues to try to overturn the election's results; that's the extent of @jon-nyc's "board game." Trump is more interested in keeping up the appearance of trying to overturn the election results to stroke his own ego and/or fleece his supporters for more resources to finance his next scheme after he leaves the White House in January 2021; which is of course a different "board game" than @jon-nyc's.

[jon-nyc]

Or more concisely, I’m celebrating democracy, he’s undermining it.

To your point, though, the board games couldn’t be more different.
